Calrea mod

[Murph]

If you're looking for a writer, I'll be available in a little while (I'm moving right now, only have computer at work). What sort of writing are you looking for? I've done short fiction, designed RPG game worlds, written for PBEM and Online RPG's, and helped design and write board games. If you're looking to flesh out some of the gameworld and do unit/pretender/nation write-ups, I can certainly help. Send me an email at wickedmurph@yahoo.com.

The project is going on...
We got some new team members i.e. Murph to write some background stories and correct our mistakes.

Our website is finally ready: http://www.hehkulamppu.net/~zeikko/calrea/index.htm there isn't much material yet, screenshots are on their way and maybe some other files after that.

There is still room for few modelers and alpha testers.

I think it's time to update this too. We are updating alpha Version to 2.11 now and making 2 new nations.

We got new URL for the web site: http://calrea.hehkulamppu.net There are also new material.

I made a pencil draft of the map of Calrea, and we are searching a person to make a cool looking tga of it. Send private message or email to zeikko@hehkulamppu.net if you're interested.

It's turning out to be a very interesting mod so far. Whereever did you came up with the idea for the backround story?

[Zeikko]

Thanks, i made the core of the background story by myself and Murph fixed and wrote it as it is. That's just the core of the history and I hope we can make more texts sooner or later.

We got new better web site feel free to visit.
The project has been on quite low-profile now but great ideas are raising again and I hope we can get some kind of beta Version out for everyone soon.

Are people intrested of testing a mod containing 4 nations and some other changes. I'd like to hear some opinions that should publish soon coming beta Version or wait for more nations etc.

Then some things about changing the Dom II playstyle. Now summons seem to much more powerful than national troops. I am thinking to decrease the strength of all summoned units or make them more expensive in gems. In my opinion summons should be used when you upkeep is almost same and income and you must expand your army, to add more variety in your army or some other small tricks, but not as the core of army.

Your opinions? Would you like to play a mod which nerfs summons?

I really wonder what people are summoning that they think makes national troops useless. The only thing that comes close to that is some of the toughest of the commanders, and those tend to be very expensive.
