Bronze Age Reborn

Description
Continuation of the Bronze Age for imperator 2.0 - now maintained by Snowlet - v2.6
All credit for the original mod to the original creators here.
This is a revival of the old Bronze Age mod, with permission from Svanley, the original Author, all credits to the map and the research go to him.

Major Mod Features:
- A massively detailed map centered on the Near East which at present holds 7000 provinces!
- Expanded technology system with new civilization advancements
- Reworked Buildings
- Expanded trade goods (including tin/lapis global trade mechanics)
- Drought mechanic
- Lots of Formables around the world (minimum 1 per tag)
- Custom units
- Custom decisions
- Custom missions
- Custom military traditions
- Reworked government tiers
- Scripted Mesopotamian revolt (to win take some land from the other side and you get the scripted peace deal)
- 3 custom mission trees (1 for Waset, 1 for Babylon and 1 for any Nomarch who wants to form a new dynasty)
- A lot of tweaks

Introduction
The year is 2115 BCE and the nascent civilizations of the Near East are in turmoil.

In Mesopotamia it was a mere eighty years ago that the barbarous Gutians overran the first Mesopotamian Empire, The Empire of Akkad. But now one by one the great cities along the Euphrat and Tigris have declared their independence and are determined to lay Gutium to waste.

In Egypt the great and prosperous Old Kingdom, who built the Great Pyramid of Khufu, have collapsed and the land has fallen into ruin and turmoil and anarchy once more reigns over the land and the small kingdoms that soon arose struggle for hegemony over all of Egypt in order to found a new glorious dynasty.

In Anatolia there has been a large influx of the Indo-European Luwians that have now come to inhabit most of the western half of the land but the native peoples still rule the eastern half with the great Hattians still reigning over Central Anatolia.

Greece has also seen an influx of another Indo-European peoples, the people that will become known as the Hellenes. The old and established Aegean Civilizations still hold most of the land and the maritime peoples wont easily let go of their many island strongholds.

In Central Asia several societies prosper from the vast trade networks transporting Tin westward connecting far-away lands. In the northern steppe there is word of a new technology; a fast, manouverable chariot that will lead its warlike creators south away from the steppe to the river valleys of the civilized world.

Along the Indus Valley a mighty civilization sprawling with cities still prosper on the banks of the Indus. But the harvest lessens every season and there are fears that the Gods themselves have cursed the land.

The world stands at a crossroads and civilization seems to be at stake.

ngl I hate how small the map is. Lack of Anatolia (Hittites), Caucuses (Urartu kingdoms), and the Iranian plateau (Indo-Aryan migration) is all wasted potential
PatrinDarkheart 23 Aug @ 2:14am 
Lesbos Update I demand :happiestmask:
Waylanderer 20 Aug @ 2:06pm 
Is the mod not being developed anymore?
Sneaky Markus Kruber 20 Aug @ 7:58am 
Great mod, thanks for the continuation! One quick question: Will there be any major updates? For example, Hittites like in the CK3 mod?
Riekopo 19 Jul @ 12:18pm 
Does this cover the famous Bronze Age Collapse?

@Andaraxi Good idea, might put it in whenever there is another update

First off, excellent work on this mod. The attention to historical detail and scope is genuinely impressive.

I’d like to propose a mechanical tweak regarding colonization:
Reduce the manpower cost by 50% when colonizing a territory that the country already has a claim on.

@Dracon Mortifierre Indeed you can, using the new Bronze Age to Imperator converter. It can convert any Bronze Age save files into vanilla, Invictus, and Terra Indomita, allowing you to play a 4,000-year Megacampaign: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/bronze-age-to-imperator-converter-release-thread.1745254/

Is there a way to transition this mod's progress into basegame when reaching the vanilla start date? I'm planning to do a Mega Campaign starting from this mod.

@Uncle Ron It's not a mod issue but a game issue, it doesn't handle Onedrive well at all. I don't have a proper fix besides ensuring that the documents folder is entirely out of Onedrive.
