European Wars - General Info

'European Wars' - a realism-mod for 'Empire: Total War', taking us to the world of 18th century, considered one of the most important and interesting periods in history, as it brings many economical, social and first of all military changes. The most important military events brought by the age of enlightenment are Spanish and Polish Successions, The Great Northern War, The Scottish Jacobite Rebellion and The Seven Years' War. As you can see, this century brings much excitement and is excellent material for strategical game. 'European Wars' mod focuses on increasing the historicity of 'Empire: Total War', mainly trough adding some new, historically accurate units such as Prussian Leib-Garde Grenadiers, Hussars of Death, Polish Winged Hussars, French Mousqetaires de la Garde and many, many others!
(A Rome: Total War version of mod is currently under the development too)

Cool! You are going to be very busy KLA!

[prince Poniatowski]

I wish you good luck KLA, 'cause it will be pretty hard to do this.

[Hunter Makoy]

3 mods for the same period on 3 different games (2 different engines)? quite an ambisious project. or r u pretty close to done on the RTW and M2TW ones?

[Elzabar]

The RTW one is expected to release Summer 2008 and the MTW2 release Winter 2008.

Safe to say KLA is probably close to finished on the RTW and MTW2 ones.

A-WE-SOME ! I can't wait to test the mod...

[Antiochus]

Look here, poll from TWC:



Most players will be play RTW because Empire will be not working on theirs computers.
So three versions of EW (RTW, MTW2 and EmpireTW) is good idea.

I think that to insert Savoy - the Duchy of Savoy, later Kingdom of Sardinia - will enhance the game inserting an italian faction that, at the moment, lacks.
Possibly Venice could do the same service. This two are the only real middle powers in the peninsula: the other states are smaller or weaker. The Kingdom of Naples, for instance, was a giant for territory, but had a rather weak military power and was ruled by foreign kings.


Piedmont partecipated in:

• the War of Spanish Succession 1701–1714 - and remember Eugéne of Savoy!
• the War of the Quadruple Alliance 1718 - 1720
• the War of the Polish Succession 1733 - 1738
• the War of the Austrian Succession 1740-1748
• the Seven Years War 1756 - 1763

from 1701 to 1763 - 62 years - those of peace were just 26. it seems to me a country quite involved in major wars.
