"1399 CE:
"For decades, fire and steel and corruption have reigned rampant across Europe.
"The old order of God-given things has broken down under - not merely under the strain of the Great Plague of decades past and the famines that preceded it, but also from the reluctance of European princes to comply with the dictates of the Holy Church, for not only is Christ's vicar ignored, he too now is a prisoner of the king of France and a pawn in the great bloody exchanges of this era, even as English armies have infected French soil itself like the Black Death itself. The rest of Europe fares little better, with the Danish Crown busined with the task of putting down increasingly restive Sweden and Norway, and the German-based Hanseatic League attempting to impose its own rule across Denmark, but the rest of Northern Europe and the Baltic too.

Features[edit | edit source]
Cavalry?[edit | edit source]
Most likely it borrows the same system from Project Yesugei but nothing is certain yet.
Mercenaries and slavery[edit | edit source]
With The Crucible, mercenaries take an ever more important role, with an ever larger larger number of mercenaries.
Note, however, too, that there is a new mechanic - slavery. Citizen units - Peons - now have a Wealth cost, but are created much, much faster, so that means that those with Wealth can turbocharge their economies at ease, while others that do not have access to both food and Wealth are at a gross disadvantage.
Pop caps: Massive but costly armies[edit | edit source]
The maximum size of armies is now 1,000 : but penalties on Military research demographics remain.
CtW ideas[edit | edit source]
No CtWs are being planned for this mod but if there are any, they will most likely concentrate on these events:
- Emperor Wu's campaigns - a massive CtW covering China and Central Asia, with a peripheral southeast Asian presence.
- Constantine's Civil War - Lead Constantine of Britain on a quest to reunite Rome but watch out for barbarian attacks - or use the chaos as one of the barbarians to bring an end to Rome.
Scenarios[edit | edit source]
- Ride of the Black Huns.
- 2nd Punic War
- Eastern Jin and the Sixteen Kingdoms.
- Graeco-Indian wars.
- Third Servile War - fall of Sicily.
- Dacian Wars
- Periplus - war between Egypt, Seleucids, Persia and Aksum - and two minor factions: Nabataea (Parthia) and Arabia (Aksum).
