Hello EU4 community, and welcome to the first Anbennar Mod Spotlight!
Today, JayBean, the creator of Anbennar and Lead Writer Karlov will be introducing you to the Anbennar EU4 mod and the Anbennar setting as a whole as part of EU4’s 10th birthday celebration in this first of a two-part series.

We'll let JayBean and Karlov take it away:

-----------
Anbennar is a fantasy total conversion mod set in an original setting inspired by D&D settings like Forgotten Realms as well as settings like Dragon Age and The Witcher. But first, let’s begin with a question:

Have you ever wanted to see how a fantasy world evolves PAST the medieval era?
How wizards react to the advent of gunpowder?
Or what if colonial exploration actually unearthed relics of immense magical power?


Anbennar is all about exploring those themes and more.
In the EU4 mod you’ll be playing through a fantasy world set during the same time span as vanilla (1444-1821). You’ll witness all the events and themes of the early modern period albeit through a fantasy lens.
Watching how a fantasy world evolves through the ages is something we don't often get to see, let alone play through, but PDX games give us the perfect platform to tell these stories - and so enters Anbennar: A Fantasy Total Conversion mod for Europa Universalis IV.

We’ve been around for five years now, and later this year Anbennar is aiming to release our largest ever update, Scions of Sarhal, and we are incredibly excited to introduce our version of Africa when it drops in Q4 (and we finally update the mod to 1.35 - we hear you, chorus of people in the steam comments)!

But our special EU4 10th Anniversary Dev Diaries aren't just about that update.
We’re also going to take you on a grand tour of Anbennar as a whole, showcasing the regions of the world, their cool gameplay mechanics, systems, and the lore you can expect when you download the mod. Additionally, we’ll share some insight and commentary on how and why we brought these unique twists on EU4 gameplay to life...

As you might expect there is a lot to cover with such a massive Mod. Too much to fit even just part 1 into this post! Whether you have heard of Anbennar before or it's a first, if this spotlight sounds interesting we encourage you to
