I played as libertarian Celtica eco warriors. It was super fun, I love a lot of the missions and how they are done, as well as the rewards in most cases being quite significant. Celtica can take Navel ideas and not be entirely ruined militarily. It has all the parts of good mod missions, cultural interactions and tiered formables, unique government decisions, new cultures, special subject types and permanent modifiers that change how the game is played. Its all such a good experience and I've not even finished.

[@anirobrien7004]

I played as Seleucia and even that minor nation had its own mission tree and its own lore, it was a challenging start though, in a region where Macedonia, Aegyptos and Persia were conquering all the provinces around me.

[@lucasholcomb643]

Bro you did a really great job on this. Super clever repurposing of various mechanics and some really interesting alternate history. The Punic wars are definitely among the most consequential "knife's edge" of history moments ever, and it's really fun to explore.

Did a saxony run, went tribalism. Very fun, lots of lore which was great. Was spiralling upwards lol. Managed to Fight back the Gauls, Norse and Slavs. Really recommend doing a saxony campaign to anyone.

As a resident of modern day Norrland, I was very happy to see an independent Norrland in this mod. Bir of a rough start, which I expected, though I think I got really lucky that Sweden didn't rival me at the start and instead became my first ally, helping me to establish myself. Still having a lot of fun with that playthrough and will continue it as time permits. Also, as a random aside: I cannot be the only one who reads the name of the nation of Punicum and internally hear it said by the Hulk

[@jansatamme6521]

@@Chewbert the rhine, a famous trade route, flows up stream! and then over the alps!!!!, ill give u another, saxony either flows over land which is feasable, and it could be going through the sea or up the elbe which once again doesnt make any sense. Trade follows which ever way it is energetically cheaper to move, so down stream and not over mountains, especially the alps!!!!!!!!! The Carthage node, up stream from the italian nodes is an end node (could be argued the other way, that italy should flow into carthage). The one thing that probably wouldn't change with rome losing are the trade routes over waterways, overland routes changes a lot more, but aint no cuh gonna start dragging their wool up the rhine and then over the alps when they could go down the rhine into the english channel to sell it to the dutch (who are norse, famous for their trading abilities) or celts or any1 along the rhine

Norrland should be called Hälsingland. Norrland is sort of a colonial perspective of the land - the land in the north sort of. Very much Stockholm perspective. Hälsingland was a petty kingdom in the Vendel times and later was likely incorporated into Sweden (unknown how as little archeological findings gives evidence enough of battles or so and the sagas don’t mention any conquest). The region was semi autonomous until late in the Middle Ages. They preferred to pay church taxes to Trondheim instead of Uppsala, but they were definitely not under the Norwegian crown either. Until the first common national law in the Swedish realm the law of Hälsingland was the law in northern Sweden and also in Österbotten in Finland.

Europe is already mainly Christian in the EU4 timeframe (and to be fair with colonization the world would likely be as well in most playthroughs), so makes sense for an alternate history mod to change things up a little. Besides, you can still make the world Christian if you want. (Could be a unique playthrough for that one nation that starts Christian, maybe something to spice up for a future update with a unique mission tree and such)

[@JadBerro-ss5on]

Mod would be better without the new world, india and asia. Focus on what people like as europe, italia, north africa, middle east and a bit of russia. I think it might appeal to more people if u put all the famous nations (so people from all regions can imagin themselves as their ancestors) in it, like a possibility to form andalusia, phoenicia, ottomans. Also I feel like italy is way to weak. I would like to see all the famous nations in 1444 pretty weak and decentralised and then they race each other to get big and strong and then fight between them. Its also a good idea bcs it would be fun to do in multiplayer. A lot of flavor for each big nation makes the mod repeatable, someone can begin as carthage, then do a conquest as norsemen (vikings), egypt, macedonia, greeks (sparta and athenes in particular), roman empire, andalusia, persia, russia, saxony. It would also be more fun if you make a few confederations as the italian federation, for example one for the german tribes, one for the vikings andalusia with other islamic nations trying to form a caliphate, greeks with their cities. I also feel like gaul is way too strong try maybe to make it a bit more decentralised so its a challenge for players and ai. I would also like to see a tsardom in russia that slowly merge with all his neighbours to create a big menace to europe. Great work for your mod tho It has a lot of potential.
