> I completely agree with the OP, and I would take it even further: the developers should completely **remove the fictional Circle of Ossus narrative from the original Black family campaign and replace it with a true historical campaign system split into three acts, exactly like _Empire: Total War_ (Road to Independence).**

It’s not necessary, but simply to run more historically accurate campaigns for that period…

I already corrected it, using the tutorial to change the Spanish enemies to Haudenosaunee in both scenarios to represent the founding of Roankoke (1585) and Jamestown (1607) respectively…

> 1. **Act II: The Seven Years’ War / French and Indian War (The Grandson, John Black):** This act would drop the fantasy elements completely. The devs can **directly recycle John Black’s original campaign maps for the environment** , since his story is already historically set during the Seven Years’ War. It would utilize the existing winter assets, colonial forts, and the official **Iroquois and Huron native alliances** that were central to this conflict.

I’m correcting that, using the British in the first two scenarios and then the Haudenosaunee in the rest of the campaign (since the Haudenosaunee were allies of Colonel Washington’s British, in this case they would be allies of the French in that scenario, since Warwick is the antagonist of the campaign and then in the final scenario, against the Russians of Warwick’s Osseus Circle, it would be fighting like the Haudenosaunee in a larger conflict)…

This is easier, simply by switching to the United States civilization (the multiplayer version, I clarify) starting from Bunker Hill…
