[NW][M] War of 1812: [Downloads]

[usnavy30]

Put aside the petty squabbles of the War, leave that outside the mod development thread so I can code in Both sides regiments with efficient haste.

If you must discuss it take it to the historical discussion board and appropriate thread. This thread is about the mod of the war not arguments over who won or who is better.

I am coding for you all so the mod can happen swiftly, be thankful please not hating of each other til you march on your enemy in-game

Funny thing too sometimes a U.S. regiment will have to switch to U.K. faction and vice versa in events. All other factions will be disabled for the mod until TBD if Charles has more faction ideas in mind.

Well... perhaps add the Mexicans? And the Spanish. Dunno who to add for a 4th faction.

I suggested making it a joint mod with the Mexican American War mod and maybe throwing in a 5th faction from the 1812 era too?

Im still thinking about adding extra factions like Spain and Mexico trying to get their freedom from Spain. But im concentrating on finishing up this 2 factions and ready up the beta testing soon

It's nearly 2 A.M. here and I need to get some sleep to keep working and all it has taken me a coupl of hours just to post these screenshots thus far. U.K. screenshots will follow shortly tomorrow.

Update: Then specialists, all the units are not done yet until everything confirmed.

cos those wars are in the same historical era m8. lolnope

dont make more unneccesary factions, makes it look dumb and hardly makes it more enjoyable

Yeah I'm sure a two faction minor mod will be played for more three weeks after release.

And I never said anything about those wars being the same era, they are the same type and the man has mod assets for them. At this stage in the DLC's life making another minor mod with said assets would be a waste of time so what I proposed was a reasonable choice.

No it just makes the mod look unfocused and rather lost. Nobody plays NW mods for more than 3 weeks after each release/update anyways. North and South was the most succesful NW mod thus far and it had 2 factions and stayed focused on those two faction. Adding a lot of small other factions fot 'what if' scenarios is pointless and doesnt add anything to the game.

[SeanBeansShako]

I'm pretty sure nobody but you is making a complaint over such a thing. Considering the factions are pretty vanilla NW anyway you aren't going to pull in much but the Angl-American types interested in such a small scale war.

[Rutger Müller]

Sven does have a point N&S only had two factions and I played that yesterday

[Parrot]

North and South had a lot of outlying factors that influenced it's popularity, plus the majority of players are based in the US to whom that era greatly appeals.

[ClearlyInvsible]

Let's focus here on Britain and the US first. Once the first release is done and bugfixed we can worry about adding the Spanish or Mexico.

Which is why you stay focused on a specific audience and satisfy them instead of just creating more and more irrelevant content and hope that everybody will like it. Look at the mods that succeed and those that flop and base your judgement on that. Part of N&S success was that it had a broad audience, it tailored its content to that audience, it stayed focused on what it intended to portray and didn't have 500 updates, and when there were updates it was simple to install.
