Sicily always annoys me that way. Every time I conquer the Med. coast. They seem to be gutsy that way.

Soon Bulgarian Total War 2 mod will be finished.It will add Bulgaria as a new faction.There will be many other changes.

Well there aren't any good mods out yet, because of M2's limited modding possiblilities. Only improved gameplay mods comes to my mind, like "Anno Domini", "Lands to Conquer". Though overall nothing spectacular.

But the good news is that yesterday community members released beta version tool for 3D model editing, finally the work can be started on large mods.

Not in the Second Bulgarian Empire.The cavalry was in small numbers.In fact bulgarians used mainly their heavy cavalry and hired mercenaries for light cavalry(cumans,tatars).So the infantry was the backbone of the army of SBE.

I wish that your country's elected pope can benefit your nation greatly, not just get very high respects. You should at least issue edicts. BTW I can't wait for M2TW: Kingdoms come out. You get to play as many great non-European nations in the Americas. Tlaxcala, Aztecs, Mayans, Apachis(I think that is how it is spelled) and I hope the Ojibwa peoples are in there too. I would love that because I am Ojibwa, the third largest nation above Mexico at one point.

Kingdoms expansion pack will probably come out in August or early Autumn.
It will feature 4 mini campaigns:
1 Spanish conquest of America.
2 British islands in viking age.
3 Crusades in Middle east.
4 Baltic crusades.

Other features:
� 23 playable factions including Aztec and Native Americans.
� Over 150 new units, including the devastating Greek Firethrower
� Control multiple armies in battle � command reinforcement armies.
� New hero characters with powerful new battlefield abilities
� A huge array of historical characters and events.
� Build permanent forts to garrison troops or seize control of key strategic points
� New technology trees influenced by Religion and Prestige
� New Mission types
� 6 New Multiplayer scenarios and 20 new Custom Battle maps
� Compatible with the new Hotseat multiplayer mode


- Moats added around castles
- They also added "Special abilities" for the historical persons in the 4 campaigns: Richard I. can collect fleeing troups, Emperor Manuel of Byzanz can "confuse" enemy units, that they hit themself.
- The campaings have different targets and a different way of playing it. In the Eastern, the religion plays a big role (because of unrest and unit development -> u can only build teutonic knights in a catholic area) in the New world if you play the spanish have only few Units and you have to look for alliances and trading routes.
- More units on a battlefield.
- You can build Forts with water around it.... keep their position and which you also can conquer and use for urself.
- More + Different Mission Targets: A noble man apears and asks for your help in a combat. If you are successfull, your reward will depend to how you won (how many you killed).
- In the Britain Scenario you can make as enemy of England an alliance with renegate(?) english aristocrats. They ask for your help, to conquer a town. If you give them the town after the victory, they will found a new anti-english fraction "Allianz der Barone"!
