Medieval Time (TOT) - Creation Thread

[civ2units]

I´m thinking about creating a Medieval Time scenario for TOT. First of all, I allways thought about a Medieval scenario for TOT, especially since I played Medieval II. The second one, I´m a little bit bored about the American Civilwar (I will definately continue the work later ) and third I really would like to do a scenario where you have to build up an empire and dominate the world, or in this case medieval europe.

Some of my ideas:

Starting date: 1066 (When William conquered England)
Main and only playable civs: Normans (English), French Empire, HRE
The crusades plays one of the main parts in the scenario.
I´m trying to use every wonder.
A complete new tech tree
I´ve two Europe maps, one in normal size, the another in large. I´m not really sure which I will use. I think the smaller one could be more suitable for this scenario.

I know, Bernd Brosing made a scenario like this for MGE years ago, I will take his scenario for some inspirations.

More will be following...

Splendid idea! Feel free to use whatever you want from my own MGE medieval scenario: http://sleague.apolyton.net/index.ph...e=Medium_Aevum

Good luck!

I'd go for the big map, and limit the amount of units that can be built...(avoiding the 'too many unit' curse)

Also, I would take a look at Exile's "Age of Crusades" MGE scenario for some great ideas.

Thanks guys for the scenarios, I´ve downloaded them and looking what I can use for me.

I´m going with the bigger map as I have more space for cities and details. I´m thinking of a maximum turn of 300. What do you think, is it too much or would you increase the maximum turn? I´m afraid that the scenario could be too boring with too much turns, otherwise it´s a "build up an empire" scenario. You would need many turns, especially for researching all techs.
