🚩 Road to Revived History [1.31.*]
Sick of portuguese Australia in the 1600s? Get annoyed of Spanish Cape Colony? Do you feel like the colonial growth is too consistent? Ever wanted to rule as new spain within its historical time period? Then this is THE mod for you!
Also great for roleplaying purposes! 😀
On the first screenshot I demonstrated how an average game might look like for you just by letting the AI play. I took it in the year 1725 (Screenshot is outdated since improvements have been made).

In development/half finished:
Planned:
Scramble for Africa is not included, for this you will have to install an additional submod which adds more content:

- You can find the Scramble for Africa submod here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1863178210
- Keep in mind that this mod is still work in progress
- If a major country gets taken over the colonial system will try to and pass the colonial areas to the best possible country however don’t expect a lot of historical accurcy because obviously the country got taken over. For example if England gets taken over then Australia will most likely be colonized by the Netherlands (New Holland).
- Some colonial areas overlap, the first who takes it gets it.
- You can turn colonial restrictions off early game in the decisions tab to gain more freedom. You can do this for the AI as well to fully customize to your liking 🙂
- Almost all colonial settler claims do not last forever, most of them expire during the end game or earlier on.
- Certain smaller colonies will form bigger colonies whenever you own the required areas e.g. owning the east coast of the US creates the Thirteen Colonies.
- Colonial age restrictions are universal (apply to any country)
- For version 1.28 goto: https://www.dropbox.com/s/plj8wl9edovw8mn/revived_history.zip?dl=0
- For version 1.29 goto: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ua2hylh7th789ro/AADS7us7ee5rBrueF2gjXc6ja?dl=0
- For version 1.30 goto: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/jy6j4mbg99mypyf/AAAwZE1Oxyxf8LK6KmMm0cl9a?dl=0
- Idea variation works
- New world colony names mod does work but you will have to remove the colonial regions folder which is located in /common. Be sure to remove the new world colony names mod’s colonial regions folder, not from this mod
- Missions Expanded works for most part however I don’t recommend using it because the mission trees within this mod are optimalized to the features and required for the best experience. Furthermore you may want to copy paste the mission trees from ME to RtRH directory. As long as these do not replace existing trees then everything should be fine!
- You can find the Extended Timeline edition of this mod over here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1708333706
- The Golden Century, Third Rome, Rule Britannia and Emperor DLC are recommended but not required.
- Ironman not supported obviously lol
- If the mod doesn’t download then use this: http://steamworkshopdownloader.com/
Originally I made this mod for myself because I got super annoyed of the AI colonizing very illogical parts of the world thus I thought why not release it for public use.
A lot still has to be done tho thus this mod is far from perfect however my goal is to get the colonization to simulate to near historical accuracy, but not perfect as it will be semi historical to keep it still random so it will still feel historical and realistic but not restricted which is exactly I am aiming for. Furthermore it shouldn’t restrict the player too much either or remove the fun factor so I have to find an excellent balance which is a huge task. If you guys have feedback you know where to put it. I’m open for new ideas and improvements 🙂
