== Introduction ==

Aevum Fidei is a mod that aims to recreate a realistic medieval atmosphere - with the campaign split up into three campaigns, a new campaign map, new units and several more features.
The current team consists of [[dragases1453]](skinner), [[selenius4tsd]](mapper/coder), [[bdotward]](modeller), [[Alletun]] (symbols/UI) and [[kobi118]] (researcher).

== History ==

The mod was announced in late December 2006. Before this dragases1453 had created his own mod which included BigMap while selenius4tsd had been working on a EHL Separation Mod. They decided to combine into one mod which would have three campaigns, starting in 1099, 1230 and 1356 respectively.

Bdotward joined the team as the campaign map modeller in March 2007, the same time as when the faction list was confirmed (see below).
Two further additions to the team, Alletun and kobi118, joined the team in early May.

'''Current Progress'''

The proposed release date has had to be moved back from July/August until December due to reasons in [http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=103271 this] thread. However, with Medieval II: Kingdoms being released later this year, this postponement will present the opportunity for a normal Medieval II and a Kingdoms version when released, with new features from Kingdoms being implemented.
