This mod is a sequel to the 'Third Odyssey' made by 'Lichtkang'. Mod Version 0.15.4 - compatible with EUIV 1.24 WARNING: This mod does not work with pretty much any mod that changes the checksum! This mod wouldn't be possible without my 'comodders' adoss7, Geminus, RedInc and Legionary Guard.
CUSTOM UNIT MODELS: NOTE: Those dlcs are not required to play the mod, your units will just use generic models.Elysia/Elysian Empire require 'The Cossacks Content Pack' and 'Trade Nations Unit Pack' -Markland/Helluland/Vinland require 'Trade Nations Unit Pack' -Spartania requires 'El Dorado Unit Pack' Changelog - includes full list of content and direct download link: -When updating the mod manually you will have to delete the old version first. Paradox Forums: To report bugs/mistakes and give suggestions feel free to use the 'bugs' and 'suggestions' section of the workshop file! The mod is currently WIP (Work in Progress) Currently I would say this mod is in beta stage. There is a lot of content planned and we are implementing it as fast as I can. Watch a playthrough, done by 'Miskatonic81' here: Features: -Fixes to the old mod -Dozens of new events concerning Appalachian Mountains -New nation in Mesoamerica, Spartakon, now with much more flavor -Event chain for Elysian return to Europe -New Herald mechanic for Hellenic religion -Development events for American provinces -Unique estates for new nations -New unique idea groups -Vikings!
-New songs for the Exiled Nations -Elysian Orthodoxy Special thanks to: Steam user 'Blarghalt' and 'Jan' for allowing me and my crew the use of their 'Vikings of Vinland' and 'Hellenic Polytheism' files. 'Lord Elderberry' for 'First Nations of Canada' and 'mahna mahna' for 'Expanded Eastern Natives' mod files.
'MilkAndLettuce' for 'Expanded Greece & Albania' files. 'Blarghalt' for 'Vikings of Vinland' mod files 'Quintus Aquila' for bug reporting 'Crushric' on Paradox Forums for screenshots 'Coragamy' for help with Greek history 'Attalus' for new elysian culture names 'XenoWarrior' for bugtesting The mod is NOT compatible with original Third Odyssey mod saves, although I would advise starting a new game. Original Description: This mod started out as a desire to colonise the new world as a faltering Byzantium and has grown out to be a much larger project than originally expected. Discover a new experience as a young, technologically and philosophically advanced nation in a New World, with all its wonders and perils.
The new Nation of Elysia has great potential to grow and become a local superpower. A ton of events and decisions give allot of context and flavor to the nation and shapes its growth and feel. There's allot of events to discover, and depending on the choices you make your experience could change completely! Will you remain a loyal orthodox christian, or denounce the God that refused to help at times of great peril in favor of the old gods? Will you take along every possible artifact that may be of great boon, or will you take as much supplies and people as possible to avoid collapsing your economy and being overrun by natives? Consider your actions carefully, you can never know what future trouble may arise out of seemingly easy choices.
Suggestions are of course very welcome, constructive comments have always helped in improving this mod! Special thanks to: steam user 'Dorimi' and associates of the 'Purple Phoenix Rises' mod for some of the event images and the basis of the Elysian flag. Steam user 'Jords' for kindly helping to create an event that undiscovers the european homelands. Paradox forum user 'marmot01' for the helpful guides.

Advertisement If you like historical strategy games and you haven’t played, you’re missing out. The scope of PC-based is huge – from their If you are looking for a little more than just pointing and shooting or mindlessly blowing through hordes of enemies, strategy games, and specifically those of the 4X variety, are perfect for you., the games have developed to become all-encompassing behemoths that allow players to control every aspect of a nations development and fortunes. The current foremost developer in the genre is undoubtedly, and Europa Universalis IV (EU4) is their latest and greatest title. Since being released in August 2013 the game has received widespread praise from critics and gamers alike, which is reflected in its, and. It is the fifth edition in the Europa Universalis series and is designed around a modified version of Crusader Kings II’s graphics engine, making it the most attractive game that Paradox has developed to date. There is an impressive level of detail across the whole map, with the world’s giant mountain ranges, sprawling rainforests, and vast plateaus all faithfully recreated – it looks great regardless of whether you are zoomed all the way in to the minute detail, or zoomed out to a regional or global view. Premise EU4 focuses on the time period between 1444 and 1821 – chosen as the years of Ottoman Turks’ victory in the Battle of Varna and the year of Napoleon’s death respectively.
The four centuries in-between cover the era of European expansion into the New World, giving gamers the choice of hundreds of playable nations, from mighty colonial powers to small African tribes, and from roaming Asian hordes to New World civilizations. Players are free to choose their own path through the game. With skilled use of military alliances, trade partnerships, royal weddings, and technological advancements, the game allows any number of historical scenarios to unfurl. Whether you want to faithfully recreate the British and Spanish global conquests using naval power, make the Mayans rule South America through religious unity, or turn the Indonesians into a world power through careful diplomacy, it is all possible. Gameplay Trade forms a key part of the game, as it should in any quality grand strategy title.
In EU4 it is based around the concept of ‘trade nodes’ which nations compete for control over. Players use merchants to either collect the trade for a given node, or forward to a node over which they have more control.
Alliances form another key part of gameplay. Whilst the powers of Western Europe have the strength and wealth to steamroller everything in their path, other nations and territories are required to take a more nuanced approach.
You need to choose your friends carefully, an alliance with a powerful nation can help protect you from threats, but also leave you open to attack from your ally’s sworn enemies. You have been warned! Expansion of your territory happens in many ways. Alongside the obvious military conquest, players can take new lands and vassalizing weaker nations, inheriting lands through royal marriage, or colonising new provinces that are as yet unclaimed by any nation. Nero start smart 10 free download italiano. Balancing the different methods is a challenge – too many forced annexations through military power will cause your neighbours to become unhappy at your perceived aggressive expansion, and potentially form a coalition against you.
On the other hand, never taking your forces into battle will result in your army and navy losing its tradition and being less effective when they are needed for defensive purposes. The tech tree has been overhauled from Europa Universalis III. Your nation is still allocated a tech group that is correspondent with its geographical region, but advancement through the system is now based on amassing diplomatic, military, and administration points from in-game events and actions.
In addition to the 3 categories, each nation also has the choice of eight ‘ideas groups’ – these are highly specialized technologies which enable your state to excel in the areas which you plan to take it. They include religious, innovative, and plutocratic concepts. Multiplayer forms another important component of the enjoyment of EU4.
The developer recommends not having more than 12 players on an Internet-based game, though 32 players are supported on a LAN. The game provides both ‘hot-joining’ and ‘takeover’, meaning you can join a game that’s already in progress, or leave a game without disrupting the other players. Converting Saves For those that already own one of Paradox’s other games, one of the most intriguing aspects of the game is the ability to and load them into the other titles. Theoretically, this means you start a new game during the Middle Ages in Crusader Kings II, and take your nation right through to 1948 via EU4, Victoria II and Hearts of Iron III – encompassing colonial expansion, the industrial revolution and World War II along the way.
Expansions, Mods and Community Paradox Interactive are known for regularly releasing expansion packs for all their titles, and have already released the add-on, which introduces new events, ideas and buildings for the New World civilizations. Their second expansion, titled ‘ Wealth of Nations is scheduled for release in the coming months, and is expected to build upon the trading aspect of the game. A thriving modding community exists – a visit to the will guide you through the main choices. Options include everything from tweaking the gameplay and altering the trade routes to reintroducing the Roman Empire and changing the start year. System Requirements and Availability The game has Windows, Mac and Linux editions, and requires at least 2GB of RAM. It is available for purchase on, as are the expansion packs and other downloadable content. Conclusion The game has taken the grand strategy genre and moved it into a new era, Strategy games have a long history that dates back to the very first game consoles and even arcade games (such as Rampart).

As with any other genre, most of the games produced have been developed. If you have played and enjoyed anything from the Civilization or Age of Empires series you are certain to love this game (incidentally, we covered ways, and an True gamers among us will likely have fond memories of the original Age of Empires game released by Microsoft Studios back in 1997, and it was a regular at many of my own LAN parties. as well). If you do heed my advice and buy the game, ensure that you stock up on frozen pizzas beforehand – Europa Universalis IV is highly addictive and is unquestionably the finest game of its genre that is available today.
