Not quite playable, but getting very close!

EDIT-Please Read!:

Now that I've got all the initial art for the recruits, commanders, and most of the summons done, and have most of the stats worked out for this nation, and it's nearly ready to play, I'm just gonna go ahead and finish it myself. So it's officially no longer a "Placeholder Nation". Which means it's no longer available for anybody else to take over-any more than anybody else's mod, anyway. If I disappear off these forums/haven't posted for a year (which would mean I've suffered a significant sea-change), feel free to do whatever you want with it (It'll probably need updated by then, anyway...). In the meantime---Hooray for me!

This is an Ethiopian flavored nation featuring the Queen of Sheba and the kingdom of Aksum, influenced by the Yoruba, early Christian and Jewish mysticism, Western Africa history, and my own demented imagination.

Eventually, it will be followed by a middle era nation more heavily based on Yoruba concepts, and Voodoo practices-which are, themselves, influenced by the Yoruba religion.

Aksum: Glory of Kings.

Let me know if this display works for everyone.

Likes Heat 1.

Advantages: Cheap scout/assassin. Access to a wide variety of troops, including three sacred recruits, 2 of which are non-capital. Non-capital Shape Shifter recruits. Very hard to rush. Several excellent unit factories. Cheap PD boosting summons. Hunga-Munga better than javelins. Sailing, Forging, and Healing all available. Powerful non- Capital Priests.

Disadvantages: No cheap mages, no good researchers, limited paths (no access or good path to access for Water/Astral, limited access to Fire, Air, Death). Mixes undead, magical, and demonic troops with regulars. 1 less Starting Gem than normal for EA. All leaders are expensive, good leaders are rare.

I've actually reached the limit of characters on this post (25,000 characters!), and so I'm going to create a new thread just for unit descriptions. That way, I can edit it, and still keep all the .DM file stats in one place. So look for "Aksum Flavours" (as in flavour-text) for the in-game descriptions of all the units. I know it's a pain to have to look at two threads, but I have to work with the limitations of the forum board.

Looks like your big 'all units' image got converted into a jpg somehow. Annoying, eh?

Yeah...I'm going to use your freedomainhosting site, Sombre, I haven't forgotten about it, I just haven't gotten around to it quite yet. I'm still working on getting all the units actually drawn-and my means to display them has absolutely improved a thousand percent, now that I know a little bit about what I'm doing. You should still be able to see all the pics in high resolution at the bottom-I update them roughly the same as the big picture.

Your mod seems really nice, the african myths are really under exploited in dom 3 (and in other games too, but dom is all about myths).
I'm looking forward to playing it as soon as you make a release.

Thanks! I hope you like it! I'm aiming for a release within the next three weeks, depending on whether I can get some help compiling a .DM file, but at this point-aside from combat sprites-the vast majority of the work is done.

When it is, I'd very much appreciate any and all feedback on how it looks, how it works, balancing issues, etc.

I agree that there's a huge body of African folklore out there for the grabbing. My fondest wish is that this mod will get people interested in learning more about Africa--I certainly have, and I expect I'll continue, considering that I've got atleast 2 more mods planned (including a MA of this one), with African themes. Nubia will be next, but I'd really like to see, if not eventually do, a Congo theme (Pygmies and dinosaurs!) and one about Zanzibar (Islamic Africa-which might end up as the LA of Aksum, some day).

It is obvious a lot of hard work went into this mod. I especially like the look of the giant beast with the basket .

Thanks, Foodstamp-considering the high quality of (and my appreciation of) your mods, especially Haida Gwaii, that means a lot!

That big one, the Opaani, is probably going to get a little makeover when I get around to it, but yes-I'm very proud of it It took roughly 6 hours to get it done, and that's considering that I borrowed some of the image from the Internet. Eventually, I'm going to replace the borrowed parts with original art, and retouch the archers in the howdah-basket-there are several units I want to redo, but I'm holding off on that until everything is playable.

So right now, I'm working on heroes. I've got Queen Makeda finished (I'm separating her from Queen Bilqis, even though they're basically different names for the same person. I'm making "Makeda" the daughter of the original Queen of Sheba-Raamah is, therefore, Makeda's grandfather.), and I'm hopefully getting some help setting up a .DM file. Once the hero art is done, and I've added any Pretenders (I'm not 100% sure Aksum's going to get a National Pretender, none have come to mind as of yet), the mod will essentially be done-ready to be turned into a downloadable .DM file and played.

Alright, one Pretender

I found a reference to the "Lion of Judah" being an Ethiopian cultural icon, and I can't remember if their are any lion Pretenders in the game already. I'm pretty certain their aren't any fire and earth based lion Pretenders, so this one I'm hoping should be unique. If it's not, please let me know.

I think there is a lion headed pretender, but he is egyptian based, and not interesting at all (stats wise). Furthermore, he is not available for many factions.

That one I'm aware of. The Lion of Judah is an actual lion. I know there's bulls in the game, but I can't remember any lions as such.
