EaW – Ghosts of Yore

Description
Ghosts of Yore (GoY) is a narrative-driven submod for Equestria at War aimed at thorough improvement of underdeveloped nations of the world: expansive focus trees, frequent events, developing stories, and challenging gameplay opportunities await you.



The current release 2.6.1 includes three reworked nations: Griffonstone, Arantiga, and the Northern Tribes (going by their native name, Tir Deighe).
While griffons of the South struggle to reclaim their long-lost glory and splendour, the ponies of Tir Deighe continue their seemingly hopeless war against Skynavian invaders — will they be able to win without sacrificing their ancient traditions or will turn into those who they fight? As the rift between traditionalists and reformers grows, darker forces from the long-forgotten past have awakened, and threaten to plunge the North into chaos.

The North Awakens
For most of history, few cared about northern edges of Griffonia. Not even the mighty Empire considered this frozen wasteland worthy of conquest. Mapmakers simply put “here be ponies” or “northern tribes” there. Yet the North, for hundreds of years, has been home to clans of hardy and stubborn ponies. While most of their ancestors had long ago migrated to fertile and mild Riverlands, these ponies stayed and thrived in the northern wastes, mastering the magic of the Northern Spirits. Seldom bothered by outsiders, Tir Deighe – a land of tradition and magic – flourished under the rule of the Snowflake clan. And so would they continue to live in blissfull ignorance of the outside world, if not for the incursion of disgruntled communists from the Griffonian Republic. Despite valiant resistance of the ponies, the communists, with their industrial weaponry and modern battle tactics, took over the settlement of Skynavia and turned it into a city-fortress, out of which they have waged brutal war against the Northern Tribes. Now, after two decades of fighting and no end of war in sight, ideological conflicts are threatening to split Tir Deighe: while the reformers led by chief Euan Stormshield argue for radical change and industrialisation, traditionalists look up to the young princess Fiana, hoping that she can lead them through these perilous days, preserving their way of life. Among all the strife, dark forces, defeated centuries ago, have awakened. Using their immense power may help ponies defeat the invaders, but the price for their employment will surely be high. Whatever path the northerners take, one thing is certain: the time has come for the North to awaken, and take its place in this everchanging world – be it as a new modern state, a bastion of traditionalism, or as an existential threat to all other creatures of the Griffonian continent.

The mod currently comes with English localisation only, however EaW can be played in Russian with the submod enabled.

Мод не имеет полного перевода на русский, однако играбелен параллельно с EaW на русском языке.

Also, check out our sister mod: Tales of Griffonia (ToG)

Due to changes in Equestria at War, Tales of Griffonia is currently incompatible and launching it alongside Ghosts of Yore will most likely crash the game.

Future Plans
- Pomovarra,
- Arantiga content expansion.

@chopeye Hi! For Herzland Liberation Army to spawn, you need to get the Frost King as the leader of the Northern Tribes and simply go down his focus tree until you kill the Griffonian Empire. When the rebellion in Herzland begins via events, you will be prompted to switch to them. To get Soter's achievement, lose Dorotheos to the Abyss, go with Nicator in the civil war, establish a new republic, choose Soter's party in the elections, and complete the focus "New Regimes" this will enable the decisions you need to complete for the achievement.

Hello, this is definitely one of if not the best submod out there for EAW. I had some questions though, how do you form the Herzland Liberation Army for its award/achievement, and how to get Sotors puppet show decisions for his award/achievement. thank you

@Amine Alkaline Hey, sorry for the late response. The system needs quite a bit of fine-tuning and adjustment to be made available for everyone and lacks air and naval components. If I manage to carve out some free time to do that, I will release it as a separate mod.
