Nova Aetas [Mount and Blade Warband SP Mod]
« on: September 01, 2014, 07:15:14 pm »


    My name is Quintillius. I am the Mod Developer of
    Europe 1805 II [MB]. After 1 year and 24 days
    of development, the mod was finally released. Now, a few months later,
    I could no longer resist the urge to model & texture. So I decided to
    work onto a new mod. Namely: Nova Aetas.


    -

    Nova Aetas is set in the world of Calradia, but in a later period.
    The Old Medieval World is vanishing. A New Era is coming and you, the player,
    will experience this. Nova Aetas is Latin for A New Era.
    The main targets are realism & extended gameplay. I also want to highlight
    the civil part of the game. Building & managing will become vital features.



    Releasing today (uploading: 1 0 0 %)!

      Building & Management



      - Constructing: Village

      * 10 different buildings can be built (church, barracks, school, ...)
      * 3 different production buildings (stone quarry, lumberjack, blacksmith)
      * You can see that the building is actually being constructed
      * Production buildings can be upgraded, up to 5 lvls (with own unique building)
      * Pay to Village Elder to set up construction site
      * Drafting Table at site allows you to bring materials (timber, stone, tools) and finish construction
      * Real-time building / upgrading. Set up construction and the building will appear. Upgrade it to another level and you can see it
      * Different buildings for Swadian, Sarranid, Rhodokian and Vaegir cultures.
      * When your village grows, the villagers will build a greater religious place on their own

      - Managing: Village

      * Assign jobs to villagers (farmers, woodcutters, stonecutters, blacksmiths)
      * These jobs let them harvest food or create materials (timber, stone, tools)
      * These materials are needed for buildings
      * Food is eaten by villagers, if too much food, people will move in, if too few, people will move out
      * Set tax level (no tax, average, high, extreme, …)
      * Ask for a salary (warning: village elder grabs too)
      * Add personal gold to treasury.
      * Special events (accidents, plague, murder, theft)
      * If your village has 76 villagers, 76 villagers will actually walk around you

      - Managing: Town
      * Build what you want (church, townhall, walls, university, hospital, …)
      * Most buildings are visually visible while walking at the streets
      * Hire commissioners to extend your options (Comm. of Architecture, … Finance & Justice)
      * Town mechanics: tax, growth, population, religion, treasury, power
      * Set tax level (from Very Low to Extreme)
      * Low Religious Uniformity decreases population and mainly tax income. Heretics don’t pay
      * Power in town is distributed to 4 classes: Nobility, Bourgeoisie, Clergy, Craftsmen
      * You decide who gets powerful and who will be kept down. Each class has its own characteristics:

        Nobility    -    Makes proclaiming edicts quicker
        Bourgeoisie    -    Building becomes cheaper
        Clergy       -    Increases Religious Uniformity
        Craftsmen   -   Increases population growth

      * Give power to a class with edicts and gifts
      * Power is divided naturally as 50% Nobility, 10% Bourgeoisie, 35% Clergy and 5% Craftsmen and tends to   
         restore this order.
      * If a class feels it has too little power they start becoming annoying:

        Nobility    -    <25%   No edicts can be proclaimed
        Bourgeoisie    -        -          Expensive buildings   
        Clergy       -    <20%   Slower conversion progress
        Craftsmen   -   <20%   People move out

      * Announce an event with many personal gains (gold, prestige, strength of faith, +250 population)
      * Random bad events (theft, nobility rises to power, Plague, …)

      - Kingdom management
      * Choose a leader title (King, Sultan, Sjah, Antipope, Tsar, …)
      * Every title has its own ‘crown’, given to player upon decision
      * ‘King’ title will grant the Swadian culture group, ‘Sultan’ will give you access to desert troops
      * Choose kingdom banner and kingdom colour
      * Kingdom mechanics:    tax, religious uniformity, balance of power, technological research, debts
      * Low Religious Uniformity destroys income. Heretics don’t pay
      * Invest weekly in technological research to gain better stats for all kingdom troops
         and to unlock new troop tiers. Here is an overview of technological stages:


      Stage I         
      Feudal technology (default)

      Stage II         
      +4 Ironflesh,
      +1 Power Strike

      +5% Income

      Stage VII     
      +1 Agility
      +4 Ironflesh
      +5% Income

      * Your relationship with vassals will fade away over time, keep them happy, grant titles, give letters of     
         approval to avoid them defecting to other kingdoms
      * Kingdom Balance of Power, grant power if you need something

        Clergy      -   Increases Religious Uniformity, reduces corruption
        Nobility      -   Larger army for every lord, proclaiming edicts easier
        Commoners   -   (Large) income boosts

      * Pray (for personal use)

      * Economical mechanics:

      Tax         -   Towns are great sources for tax income, castles are not and villages a little
      Trade Tariffs      -   Villages provide greatly to trade. However trade can collapse  during wartime
      Commoner Gifts    -   Give power to the commoners and they will be grateful
      State Expenditures   -   As your kingdom grows, you will face costs
      Research Investment   -   Really important to get access to best troops
      King’s Purse      -   Your own salaryNoble’s Purses      -   You will pay for noble titles too
      Councillors salaries   -   You will pay salaries for councillors like the steward
      Interest 5%      -   You will pay interest for debts, created during a deficit
      Corruption      -   Depends on King’s Purse, if you grab, everyone will grab. Keep clergy at power to reduce this

    Click the banner at the top. Did a test run today, pretty cool mod. Animations are annoying though.

    I have downloaded and played this mod.

    Yes, I know there's only the first release, but there are quite some annoying bugs at the moment:

    WHen sailing, you keep getting the city of Zendar popping up.
    Your initial construction site doesn't show up, but can be looted by enemies.

    The animations are off. (you hold nothing in the air while holding a bow)
    Every time I join a battel I get an error screen with the longbow.ddr

    Overall, the new features feel guinuine, although it is hard to figure out what's what.
    There is little information in the mod how to manage your village and recourses, fo example.

    They have some work to do. But it's already one of the best mods I've ever played (which says something, there are a lot I have played)

    When sailing, you keep getting the city of Zendar popping up. You need to buy a ship from Zendar to sail, the screen goes away once you own a ship
    Your initial construction site doesn't show up, but can be looted by enemies. Noted

    The animations are off. (you hold nothing in the air while holding a bow)
    Every time I join a battel I get an error screen with the longbow.ddr Already being patched

    I think the mod explained itself pretty well ONCE you actually got to the point to where you could do said thing. Just don't go after wanting to do one thing right away. Or do what I did and enable cheats, make yourself OP as fuck, make a rebel nation over Zendar and test out the new features so you can know how the mod works.

    I have bought a ship, all my men fit in it, still, walking across an ocean shouldn't be possible. ANd also should have been fixed in the closed testing.

    I understand this mod has been made by one man, and again, it's one fo the best, but the errors which are there as of now, are horrible, really.

    It also looks like they tried to remake the NW upstab for polearms.

    I think you meant to say With Fire and Sword. Because it literally is the WFaS animation sped up.

    [close]

    I meant NW, but now you mention it.
    I looked it up just now, and you're right.

    STill doesn't change the fact it's awesome mod.
    I'll have to restart anyways, I went too fast and the work is catching up on me =P
    The pace should be taken slower than in regular warband, that's for sure.

    I have no clue what they have done to siege towers, but they managed to make a new skin for it where there is a crossbeam right where the AI want to go. Siege towers are officially fucked now
