A 7 Years War / RISK boardgame themed mod

CONQUEST is loosely based on 2 things, the board game Risk and the 7 years war. The mod is being built around the Conquest game mode which has been slightly altered so that players no longer spawn at their teams owned flags but at their teams initial spawn point throughout the game. The mod aspires to create a fun simulation of combat during the 7 year

The main interest I have in creating this mod is in trying to create a realistic (as much as possible) 7 years war combat simulation. I didn't live back then and experience the combat myself, but I'll do the best I can to paint a picture that is as accurate as possible in this mod. I also always thought it would be interesting for people to be able to create their own regiments and make their own uniforms, which is why I've gone out of my way to create a large number of customization options for each troop type, so that players can pick their own uniforms and have a unique look that differs from other player made regiments. I've also tried to balance the troop classes correctly, giving each a slight advantage over their "nemesis" class but not to the point that skill won't determine the winner. Most importantly I want combat to actually reward the good players instead of the spazzers. I've played many mods and they all seem to end in spazzing or players having too many choices of things to fling at one another. That being said, I'm happy with what I've been able to put together so far and plan to continue expanding upon it.
