Cool scenario/inovative map event idea. Age of heroes

[blackninja9939]

Yeah that is not how the map works, you cannot dynamically change the map between bookmarks or by event. So what you suggested is not possible at all.
Also think about the amount of history files we would have to create for every single ruler so we could go back that far.

Wasn't there originally a plan to go back to at least the Long Winter or something? Which is why the game has the 7000's and 8000's as start dates?

It was decided to be 8000 as the year 0 because there is roughly 8000-10000 years of history before Aegon's Landing so the mod has room to do those 8000 years in the history files for that which we know. When I said it would be lots of history work I didn't mean the big characters and houses we know about I meant all those little lords who have no canon info on what their dynasty was like back in the time of Brandon the Builder etc

Oh, ok. So the Age of Heroes is much before that? I should have realized that when reading "The World of Ice and Fire" book...

Yeah the Age of Heroes takes place about 8000-10000 years before Aegon's Conquest.
The wiki of ice and fire even shows the history going back even further roughly speculating that the First Men invasion took place at about 12,000 years before Aegon, http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Timeline_of_major_events shows more details but there is only a bit of lore surrounding the main houses and even less about the minor ones

That's so awesome, thanks! Do you think the Children, or at least events for them, will be in the mod sometime, like as a retinue, somewhat worse than dragons but still a great unit to have (especially against the White Walkers).

They are in the mod, if you are a wildling and your child has greensight there is a random event where one of the children of the forest will come and offer to tutor them
