@gladiosanctus Supernatural is also a compilation mod that incorporates witchcraft and a bunch of Vampire and Werewolf features

@GladioSanctus Witchcraft is a very active magic mod for CK2, and both the Godherja and Elder Kings 2 total conversion mods have well built Magic mechanics.

why is every magic mod dead for this game...?

Indeed... who's going to accept the resurrection challenge with the follow through of keeping it up... ?

Really annoying how so many great mods seem to die month or year into a PRDX game's lifecycle. You can almost set a calendar to how common it is.....

This mods seems dead? That's so sad this is exactly the magic realism mod I wanted!

Got bizarre "Sappho" witch mod that makes no thematic sense, but Ars Magica that is LITERALLY based around Medieval Europe gets zero attention. Sucks.

We need somone to resurect this mod.

Хочу продолжения...

doesnt even show the "mage" of "the gift" trait to get me started. Was trying to use this to see how many trees I can have without having to make a scroll bar, but even the most basic part of the mod, the trait that grants you access to the rest of this mod, is just... Not there.

Damn that's such a shame that this mod is dead. I really hope someone picks it up and makes a fork! Looks like it has so much potential.

lemme look into the mod. Wanna revive this... unless it's too complicated :(

On discord, it seems that the mod is now abandoned.

I hope someone could get the project going

I don't see the animal and other choices

So, how goes work on the mod?

Looking forward to being able to blend this and world of darkness into one game.

Any news about the mod?

will this be updated?

well it finally showed a lifestyle tree for magic.

@Z3nr0ku It is not playable yet, as per the description. First more-or-less playable version should be out in one week, hopefully. That will have only the first few spells available and nothing else. I am working as the single dev on this so it moves quite slowly, unfortunately.

I pressed become magus and nothing happened

Don't forget to join the discord page if you want to give ideas for how mechanics could work in the mod.

Just joined Discord for more support! Hope all the enthusiasts of the mod do the same! 😃

Looks interesting

Thanks, @DenverZeppo! Also thank you for letting me know about the link! I updated the description with a permanent one.

As a tabletop RPG nerd this excites me. :) Can't wait. (Also, Discord link has expired.)

Really nice mod. i'm interested to help with ideas, write description and event text (as i'm a storyteller) and do a translation in french. you can PM me if you are interested

Really awesome idea, so much potential here. Can't wait to see what you do with this!

@Strix6969 Great suggestion! Just created the server and added the link to the mod's description

Make a discord

Awesome! I remember playing this game in high school. Good luck figuring out how to make this work

Hey man, I'm willing to offer my services to help out with the modding process! DM me anytime

This idea is so good, and it's nice to see that people are willing to help you out.

As people stated before the potential is amazing, you just have to stay with it, it'll take time but if you are able to pull this off this will be one of the best mods for CK3.

Yo this is epic, thank you so much for making this.

@Dementia5 認知症 I'm going to use 5th edition as much as I can. However, some of the tribunals were only described in detail in previous editions. For those cases I'll use the most recent materials I can find.

Which version of Ars Magika? Most recent? Or is that irrelevant?

Nice idea!

Great to see that a lot of people are showing up to help @vzellmeister

The potential for this mod is amazing.

Imagine some sagas developing from time to time with random events? And your future generation algo being a mage and all that...

The game has so much to do with Crusader Kings.

But this is as challenging as it is aewsome. It would be an almost 100% overhaul.

Gonna need a lot of work and experienced people involved. Its a shame that I am useless and can only cheer for you guys...

Ars Magica 5th edition is my favourite ttrpg, i know you've already got people offering help with the lore side of things, but if you want/need an additional person to dig through mechanics and the world of ars i will happily help, i have access to nigh on all of the 5th ed source books
I'm not familiar with modding but I am good at dredging through rules to find things, I'm also part of a large ars magica game so i can run stuff past them as well

No idea what Ars Magica is but this sounds amazing.

this sounds amazing I smell heavy scripting will be underway to match faithfully with Ars Magica since one event could potentially leads to dozens outcome since it is tabletop, I don't know much about modding in CK 3 although the code seems more or less about the same as CK 2, in previous game I mostly doing gfx mod art like traits and artifact.

@OrdinalChaos just sent you a friend request. It'd be lovely to have someone else involved in the project. There's a TON of work to do.

@OrdinalChaos

Perhaps you can help him with the mod. If not with technical help about modding, but at least providing more lore info on more detailed things. Sorry my bad english.

looking forward to this, I just recently started getting into Ars Magica myself and have 13 of the books so far. I was actually considering doing something like this myself but I'm a noob at modding and starting with what almost amounts to a total conversion didn't seem like the best idea to me.
Just a note though, while a few magical traditions don't require the gift, most do; even the non-hermetic ones. Out of the books I have, there is a lot of info on hedge magic in Houses of Hermes Societates, in the section about house Ex Miscelanea, of particular interest is how a hedge tradition can be integrated into hermetic magic in the section: The Lineage of Pralix. I don't know how much of the source material you have access to or how deep your knowledge of the setting is but if you'd like some help on that front I'd be happy to help.

Well I hope you succeed sir it sounds amazing.

@KingKilo right now, very little. I am still toying with ways to implement the magic system. Posting this here was more of a way to keep me motivated and accountable so I wouldn't drop the development midway.

I hope you succeed with this! I love Ars Magica!

looks interesting, what is included so far?

To your point, @PakmunD and @viranto: in the Ars Magica lore not everyone can use hermetic magic; to do so, one must possess "The Gift", a powerful connection to the Magic Realm. The Gift is very rare, so magi (plural for "magus", Ars Magica uses a lot of Latin) have to search far and wide for gifted children to take on as apprentices.

Now, there are "hedge mages" and "wizards" (as the members of the Order of Hermes would call them) in Mythic Europe. These are practicioners of lesser magics which don't require The Gift to be learned and so are commensurately less powerful.

Great idea and I agree with viranto. It would be good if it only happen when you have some "talent" or genetic traits.
