Rate of feedback on nation mods

I think warhammer nations would be a bit... flat, somehow, compared to dominions nations. I don't quite know what I mean, but I think there's a reason that Kristoffer avoided the typical fantasy stereotypes, and why the nations in dominions seem so interesting.

I think that's also the reason that I think I like, say, Ulm Reborn and Arga Dis a good deal more than Sylvania and Teutanion. They just feel much more dominions-y.

I guess the difference is perhaps links to real-world cultures? I'm not sure. If you could come up with a dominions-style nation consisting of rat-men though, that might well be awesome. It could even draw on warhammer for many of the units, but would have a different feel. Exactly what culture you might base a ratmen nation on though, I'm not sure. I'm sure there are plenty of very interesting possibilities though.

I see what you mean; warhammer is a pure fantasy setting which draws a lot less from the fascinating history of cultures worldwide,... yet I have always been partial to the setting. As much as I like the 'dominions way', I think there's something to be said for some gritty 'arcade' fantasy.

I'd rewrite things the same way I did for Avernum - make sure there's a credible fit with the dominions world if at all possible, but not change too much. Zepath's mods, for instance, were clearly very much influenced by warhammer, yet were different enough that they don't quite satisfy my urge to see the Warhammer Orcs, Skaven, Elves etc I know well slapping each other around in the Dom3 engine.

But I do want to hear from more people about this - perhaps Warhammer is not too popular amongst the Dom crowd.

I love Warhammer and I'd really love to see Warhammer stuff modded to Dominions.
I even writted down some projects myself, but never got around to actually making them...

WAAAAUUUGGGHHHHHH!!!! (A little over the top?)

I actually enjoy Zepath's Warhammer inspired mods BECAUSE they differ from DOM 3's mythology inspired nations. I would love a Skaven-based nation or, dare I hope it, a Greenskin nation.

WAAAAAUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
