Favorite mod besides SS?

yes got a bit off-topic there *cough*

Seeing as the OP didn't say anything about mods for which games, has anyone tried the Rus XIII Century mod for Mount & Blade? Freakin' awesome mod for Russophiles like myself. It's one thing to control your Druzhina and armies from above like in M2TW. It's another thing to personally lead your own Druzhina and fight alongside them

had a look at third age - some very impressive technical stuff in the mod.
but the game play left me a bit uninterested.
I suspect Tolkein didn't write his books with an eye to being made into wargames.

looking forward to Princes, Kings and heroes - more amazing technical stuff.

and the wars of the roses mod if it ever gets finished!

(is it just me or do many mods which look great fail due to lack of game play?

yeh the mod is boring, techicly its great mod, but gameplay is uninteresting

I have to agree there. While I love Third Age, I just cant get into it anywhere near as much as SS or other historical mods.

I think that TATW could use a more agressive AI and it is too easy to rebuild your armies.

I know it's not a mod, but what do you guys think of Shogun2?

Here is a website for all TW game discussion. If you want to talk about Shogun 2 start up a thread.
