Will be returning soon....

For the last several months, my modding campaign has been out of commission due to the fact that someone scratched by CTP2 disk up pretty bad. However, whenever I can afford to buy a Game Dr., I'll repair that disk, and be back in business!

On other fronts, bad news ladies and gents, I won't be making a WWII scenario anytime soon

.

But, I am thinking of making something a little better:

The American History Series

This will not be any ordinary mod. This will be a series of Scenarioes that will encompass the history of the United States of America.

Part 1 - The Revolutionary War
Part 2 - The War of 1812
Part 3 - The Mexican War
Part 4 - The American Civil War
Part 5 - World War I
Part 6 - World War II
Part 7 - Korean War
Part 8 - Vietnam War
Part 9 - The Gulf War
Part 10 - The Terror Wars

For anyone who is fascinated with American History, or is an American, this will be a must-have for any CTP2 player!

EmperorMatthewI · November 2, 2002, 16:04

Part 6 - World War II

This will only cover WWII Post-Pearl Harbor...

I hope your not taking too much on there

Ive been sloooooowly working on an Aztec scenario for many months now and barely have time to do that. Will you be including scripted events? Or is it just a "MOD Scenario"?

EmperorMatthewI · November 2, 2002, 16:54

I plan to release the MOD in several stages, the order of which is on the first post.

Will release the Revolutionary War Section first.

SMIFFGIG · November 4, 2002, 06:20

Looking forward to it

P.S. I take it your from america (hence the American scenarios) but CtP2 can be picked up for just £5 in UK $8 i think

once again looking forward to them Matthew (oh and Maq's Aztec one too) now when will that ever be finished

Locutus · November 4, 2002, 09:10

Welcome back!

Very ambitious...

Sounds great, though

EmperorMatthewI · November 4, 2002, 23:16

It can only begin when my disk is fixed...when that happens, I'm back to work.

Pedrunn · November 4, 2002, 23:26

Thats like the biggest CTP2 scenario project ever.

HuangShang · November 5, 2002, 18:39

tight yo: new senario!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i live in the US and know alot about the wars

EmperorMatthewI · November 5, 2002, 19:26

The Scenario will not be released in one huge lump sum.

The scenario will be released in Parts as described above, with the Revolutionary War first, and i will need to know how to create message boxes, events, et cetera.

Do we get the chance to play the Brits in the revolution? I want to crush you traitors! The British Empire should never have fallen

I might consider letting the British be a playable character, but you gotta deal with the French if you get whipped at Saratoga!

SMIFFGIG · November 7, 2002, 08:36

Yay let the British be playable

HuangShang · November 7, 2002, 20:32

mexico?too? the Koreans and Chinese, the Vietnam The Terrorists

how about them yo? it'll be so tight :b

EmperorMatthewI · November 7, 2002, 21:27

Huang, you forgot the Germans, the Japanese, the Iraqis, and the Spanish.

I know, I forgot about the Spanish-American War...

Revised Release List

EmperorMatthewI · November 13, 2002, 20:55

In light of Saddam Hussein's acceptance of the new resolution by the Security Council, Gulf War II will not be included in the Series.

It will likely go into my "Alternate History" Files

HuangShang · November 13, 2002, 21:23

Bush is really pushing for war..................

EmperorMatthewI · November 29, 2002, 15:11

I now have a couple ideas of how I will play out the American Revolution Scenario

A - You have to hold out against the British until the French arrive, if you're the Americans. If you're playing as the British, crush the rebellion BEFORE the French arrive!

B - Saratoga. If playing as the Americans, you MUST win the battle of Saratoga in order to recieve help from the French.

Enough Said

EmperorMatthewI · December 10, 2002, 01:04

The good news is that The American History Series will finally go online in the near future!

The bad news is that it will not be on Call to Power II...

The American History Series will be made for Civilization III. I have a thread on the Civ III forum with an explanation. At least I won't have to go through the effort of editing all the uniforms...

Maquiladora · December 10, 2002, 04:50

I guess you may get a bigger audience over there, but you wont be able to achieve nearly as much with Civ3. Sorry about your disc.

HuangShang · December 10, 2002, 19:39

too bad, oh well.............................................. ............

SMIFFGIG · December 10, 2002, 19:46

lol and i thought u had actually started making the scenarios

shame to hear that anyway cause ctp2 is a much better game and i feel it will be wasted efforts making it for Civ3 is its so incapable compared to CtP2

but yes you will get a bigger audience there, until PTW gets its final patch at least

HuangShang · December 10, 2002, 20:12

i agree

Devil of Truth · December 11, 2002, 05:49

And another falls to the allure of the dark side. What a shame! It was a great idea. Good luck anyway.
