Hey Modcraft! Thanks for taking a moment to check out our advertisement. Below are some brief details of the project, some screenshots highlighting our progress, and what we're looking for.
Our forums and website are still partly under development, so please contact us directly through Skype if you're interested!
Please don't hesitate to ask any questions about the project.

As a note, we did NOT make any of the custom models seen in the screenshots. Credit for those goes to the excellent modders behind the Napoleonic Wars, Twilight of the Sun King and Europe 1805 mods for Mount and Blade. We simply ported them over.

Very good artistic skills.
How will player become important persons ?
How will they lead a revolution ?
If you can say more, of course...

I can answer that, as I'm 'co-lead'.
Players on Concert of Empires start from the bottom, though that bottom isn't just classified as peasants. They can be soldiers, merchants, bandits, and many other roles that are seen as common but can lead to more uncommon roles. We have a profession system that will also expand on a players role in the world, which is connected to the economic system. I'll keep that vague for now, mainly because we have yet to fully implement it.
As for the revolution aspect, think of the world on the very edge of industrialisation. New technology is over shadowing the old and war is becoming less personal. The western humans and dwarves are pushing this change, with the rest of the races are being forced to adapt. All of this fuels a giant fire that the players are set around at the start of the server. They can choose to further elevate the conflicts, profit from it, or create their own faction/kingdom/army to usurp the existing ones. This will all take time, of course, but it will be a possibility that we fully endorse.

Cool stuff.
-
An important detail I forgot to mention; we're a 3.3.5a project.
-
Damm i love those Ships aroud Ostholt
i want 3d models of them ! :D
-
The ships seem incredibly familiar. Can't exactly place what I know them from, but it looks great!
The project overall gives a nice organised look, but it seems like a shitload of work.
-
It's a shitload of work, indeed, and we're not the kind of guys to kid ourselves by pretending otherwise. But we do it because we enjoy it and we're taking it slow and steady. We plan to release after finishing the first few edits and then continue to add more from there.
EDIT: Also, the ships are ported over from Napoleon: Total War. We'll release them sooner or later, but it's pretty easy to do yourself if you wanted to!

Ah, then that's what I recognize it from.
But I'd rather port the ships from Rome II, Triremes and the sort would fit rather well I think.

I'd like to try that, I'm just afraid they'll be too high poly!

Iirc there are several Level of Detail models, I'll have a look soon(ish).

We're still recruiting! We could really use someone with an interest in the time period to help with importing custom models.

Nice water.

Nice water.
Credits go to Skarn for that one. Although as you can see, it's still a WIP as the reflection map is off making it very bright and shiny.
Still better than the vanilla stuff though!
-
Excellent work !

Some new screenshots, an early WIP of the next city we're working on:

Looks amazing, I love the idea behind this can't wait to QA it if I get the chance.
P.S.
I'd love to help in some way.

I have a question about the time period.
Okay so it's based between the seventeen-hundreds and the eighteen-hundreds, so my question is will there be pirates, ship battles and of course the most important of questions will you be able to become a pirate?
I'm just wondering because there seems to be potential for pirates in that world.

That's a good question. In real world history, piracy was pretty much over by the dawn of the 1800s, but we don't have to mirror real world history exactly. One of the world builds we have on our list is a Caribbean inspired region and it'd be awesome to have players roleplaying the criminals, privateers and government powers that would be rampant in the region.
I mean who doesn't love pirates after all.
If you have any more questions go ahead!
-
Made some pretty significant progress and changes as we weren't satisfied with the atmosphere of that initial WIP. For the record, this city is Waldau, the capital of the Dwarven nation of Grand Kasnia.
This build is still very much WIP, with no details and several placeholder models.
