"Empire: Total War" Mods: What do you recommend?

[kpetschulat]

Darthmods are so over-rated. I find them to be incredibly dull and lame.

I really don't understand where you're coming from with that but each to his own.

Exactly, to each his own. So what's the problem with my opinion of Darthmod?

[ClearlyInvsible]

Needs more Europe in ACW, it could really be expanded to be Victorian. Excluding the colonies that is.

That's a bit wierd, I mean the Americas had a hand in the Victorian Age also

Besides the next Total War may be a Victorian Age one

Unfortunately, Creative Assembly said they will not venture past the Napoleonic Era. They are remaking their games, if you haven't seen the pattern.

Now that there is some horseshit man.

[Oakenshield]

American civil war mod is the best. 

Loses it's appeal quite swiftly considering there's only 2 factions.

But they are very detailed 

[Windbusche]

Eh, not all that much. Not too much unit variety

Actually, it's not. I am a user of the Total War forums, and there have been many people ask about a Victorian Total War. Creative Assembly developers said they will not venture that late int the 1800s.

[Betaknight]

well there are always modders around to do something like this. So just wait and see.

No no I believe you, I'm saying it's horseshit they won't do it.

[kpetschulat]

Oh. The tone you used made it sound like... Oh, never mind.

how? any other 19th century time period is perfrectly moddable with ntw. And of course they wouddnt venture into the 20th century, that would be stupid. Total war, imo, was made for ancient/medieval times

[Hinkel]

Eh, not all that much. Not too much unit variety

Well, there are about 200 different units in the ACW mod (with tons of unique generals with own uniforms and skins) and up to 30 different weapons/rifles. Thats more then any other mod and it offers lot of variations

Got a source on that?

I'm a very frequent user of the official forums and TWC, and have never seen a statement from the CA regarding that

[kpetschulat]

Oh, boy. I'll dig them up tomorrow. And, if you're a frequent user, then you should have seen the many people that ask, and the many people that say it won't happen. A few instances, moderators and a CA dev himself said they have no plans of venturing that late.

As I said before, if you can't see the pattern here with how CA is making their TW's, then you're blind. They're going back and remaking each one, but adding a little something new to it.

[Nipplestockings]

Can you explain exactly why you dislike Darthmod so much? I'm genuinely curious, as I've never played any other mod for ETW so I don't really have any sense of perspective on the matter.
