I was a team member during the creation of this MOD though I will admit my input was minor( I created the lighting effects the dust clouds and the skies). What I can tell you is the expertise of the other members was very impressive including professors of history etc. All in all a great experience and yes I still play it today

I'm really liking the reviews, I'd be curious about what your thoughts are on the Great War mod for Napoleon Total War. I remember trying it when it first came out and being very disappointed with the battles, not sure how much it's changed since then. Keep up the great work!

[@chnb517]

Love your vids. Whats your favorite total war game?

[@ChaseUens]

I'd wait on a review of it, a large overhaul of the mod is in progress fixing many of the problems that plagued the campaign.

[@TheArmchairHistorian]

​@@chnb517 I like Napoleon for the time period, but the map is way too small. Medieval 2 & Rome 1 are fun, I'm not a fan of their newer titles.

[@TheArmchairHistorian]

@@ChaseUens I don't remember the campaign being the problem, it's just that the AI would charge in battle without any idea of how to fight in WWI fashion, which makes sense because they are hardcoded to fight in 19th-century line formations.

Q: In custom battles or multiplayer the unit selection is missing units. A: All of the regionals cause a problem for the custom battle / multiplayer list. There is a special EDU for custom battles / multiplayer in the "...Rome- Total War\EB\mp custom game edu" folder. Rename your campaign EDU then place the EDU from that folder into the "...Rome - Total War\EB\Data" folder. When you want to play a campaign again, switch back to your original EDU. EB v1.1 now comes with the trivial script, which will automatically switch the files for you. To play custom battles or multiplayer battles with all of your factional units, run the "Play Multiplayer" option of the trivial script. -From the EB FAQ I mean, you probably don't plan to upload another video just for a custom battle, but still that's what was going on in case anyone wondered

[@basty1man]

[@kohgoomah0105]

A few big differences you didn't go over: Units/Armies are costs are much higher in this game. Upkeep and Recruitment will affect your Economy greatly. Economies are harder to build. Mercenaries are extremely expensive, practically not worth it. Ships are ridiculously expensive, but definitely worth it. Conquering far-away lands are a bitch, because you can't restore your depleted armies that can only be recruited in your homelands. Characters and character traits are a big deal. They make a huge effect in the game. For example "Hale and Hearty" will give your general +3 hit points. There are some mining traits or retinue that will give you extra 30% mining income. Mining is a big deal in this game. Takes like 20 turns or some ridiculous amount but it is well worth it. Some settlements have special buildings that can be destroyed for a large sum, but many times are worth keeping. Certain settlements give you special troop units. For example 1. You can get CRETAN Archers in only Crete, Syria, and a few other settlements with a Type 4 gov't building... (i think u need type 4, it's been a couple years since I played this game.) These bitches are OP when you ship them to fight against barbarian nations. 2. Thracia has very cool unique units such as - Galatian Heavy Spearman and also those dudes who hold a large ass sword with 2 hands... Thraikioi Rhomphaiaphoroi (Elite Thracian Infantry) BATTLE MECHANICS Your control has to be much better in this game. For Example, Calvary will not charge properly unless you line them up and properly face them in the direction of your charge. Another big one- if you order your infantry to attack a group, but the AI charges a different enemy group at your unit, your unit will not do a good job of attacking this enemy group even though they are engaged in battle with each other. You must actually order your own unit to attack this new group of units that are engaged with your unit. Fatigue is a HUGE factor. And many units fatigue quickly, especially the heavy/armored units. Flanking makes a big difference. Units take a much longer time to die. Infantry vs infantry takes forever... this is when you use cavalry to rout them with a charge and easily clean them up. Calvary is the difference between a long battle and a quick one. Calvary actually does make a Great difference... especially for Clean Up. The difference between a close victory to possibly battle again versus a decisive victory to not have to battle again. Must hurry in late-game Sieges or you will run out of time. However, I like to have a timer, because it gives me an advantage if I'm heavily outnumbered whether it is a siege or a pitched battle. More importantly, it gives me a chance for my general to stay alive. An invaluable general that has been meticulously groomed with special traits and retinue for countless seasons. Okay... there's more, but i'm done. I love this game, forever

[@kohgoomah0105]

I’m Extremely honored to be highlighted in this channel! 2 last tips: “Favour of the gods” is probably the best trait in the game. And any characters with 4 names instead of the usual 3 will kick ass.... example: Publius Cornelius Scipio Asina (but don’t use this guy as faction heir [unlesss you are a beginner] because Cotta has more potential at 16 yrs old with great traits. This is just an example of a character with 4 names)

[@iamcleaver6854]

I remember downloading this mod. I liked the way it looked and the new factions but I found gameplay veeeery tedious. I remember being confused about government types and some other things. Two things that I hate most are the fact that most units are regionally restricted (which makes you armies look like dog's breakfast) and the fact that they are not colour coded by faction (romans should be red so I could tell my units apart from the enemy's; I really don't care if they were red historically but it makes for a better gaming experience)

@@stejar12345 Well, in my experience only in the technical part because you have to code more stuff and make a new engine (somtimes). But when it comes to certain concepts i think it's about equal. Except one side is payed and the other often not and because one side doesn't have to behave according to a deadline i suppose it can kinda explains why mods often do some things better the original devs just never really thought about or it was too time constraining to include it or the head of development (or whatever you call it) just in't like it at all. But oftentimes modding teams sorta run the same way though. It's really hard to come up with new shit and how to put it ingame. Modder or not. Believe i tried this myself once.

Great mod IMO. I personally like it more than Stainless Steel. So many factions you never knew about previously and the threat of the mongols is real.

Speaking of unknown factions, anyone heard anything of the AUH mod (all under heaven)? It's focused on asia with the mongol horde on the eve of throwing themselves against the jin. It even promised to include a tibetan faction! It's been in development since 2007 i think. Last time i checked he merged with another chinese dev team and shared assets between them, that was like 5 years ago.

One of my favorite playthroughs was as Baktria... I created an empire and had a fierce rivalry with the Seluicids... I created 4 armies and invaded Mesopotamia but they were able to hold me after I took Selucia but my empire still stretched from Mesopotamia to India. It was a great playthrough and it was nice having an AI that actually built armies and kept me on my toes. The population mechanic made it so I couldn't completely replenish my armies. After they held me I had to take a defensive posture until my armies were reinforced. By that time they had armies to match mine and even launched a counter attack into Persia which diverted my forces from continuing my conquests. I love EB

[@muvs32pap]

A note for those who don't know about the "length of battle" and how long they seemingly take compared to Rome Total War Vanilla. The ED squad decided to add a more robust/realistic moral system to their units. A good to great general 4+ stars with an army of capable units that have 1-2 experience chevrons will be a formidable foe indeed. In vanilla Rome so often the unit cohesion was fantastically unrealistic. The trained Roman Hastati ranks and especially the trained Greek hoplites should have been able to maintain an order of battle and remain in their trained stances during a melee. E.B. I&II take this into account and it really gives the feel of slogging through a bruising bloody battle that may swing back and forth and that one opening taken advantage of at that one moment can win the day. I really admire this Mod as much for the battle AI as much as the time and work put into creating the more logical systems for the economy etc. etc, This is basically what happens in this mod. Your troops will def. react well to keeping your line's flanks protected and all the other tricks and such a good general can employ to make success a more realistic prospect. In vanilla Rome units take some casualties , run away, regroup and just stand around until ordered back to the fight by which time other units are chain routing...and once a unit has been shaken they were much more likely to be unable to fight again effectively in a single battle in Rome I. Give Europa Barbarorum a try. The battles are fabulous at times and due to their better pacing but the org. battle to shame. BTW. Peace 2 you LegendofTotalWar. Europa Barbarorum mods both I&II need mad love and this vid was a very decent introduction. P.S. I also mod back in the Rome Total War music....the way to go imho! Rock on folks!

[@zorkwhouse8125]

From your description it definitely sounds worth checking out. The govt system you described actually reminds me of (and maybe that's what model they built it on) of how Roman society during the empire period was structured - in terms of how they had varying levels of citizenship and semi-citizenship that were open to different people depending on where they lived in the empire. very similar to what you described - only certain populations were eligible for full roman citizenship, which came with certain perks and rights etc, but the populations of client states that were brought into the empire over time would be granted limited version of citizenship (I can't remember the actual term for it) that afforded some rights to these peoples, but not the full deal. As such, one of the ways the Romans bought allegiance from the aristocracy of newly conquered or absorbed areas was to offer the ruler and their family and maybe a limited number of the higher-ups full roman citizenship, whereas the rest of the population were granted the limited variety. Anyrate, what you described very much sounds like an approximation of that - which is really cool and an interesting dynamic to add to the game which makes it feel much more historically aligned, which is a big plus in my book. great review and good suggestion.

[@totalwartimelapses6359]

Like Rebels from Med 2's general campaign- tons of borderline useless manpower tied up in tiny spread-out armies, agents that spawn on their own and cannot be recruited like witches, and the weirdness of low public order spawning rebel troops on your side, incentivizing you to destroy courthouses (in true smelly peasant rebellion fashion, of course) and jack up taxes on your fellow revolutionaries.

I can play Vanilla Enhanced mod and other shit but EB just refuses to run. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.

MOAR MOD REVIEWZ !!!

[@Tippetts6618]

Battles last longer eh? I played the Expanded Greek Mod and the first battle as Rome against Prryhus was a devastating defeat for me because of how tough units were compared to vanilla and how long they would stay in combat, I lost momentum. When I tried again, and I mean really tried, I won the battle with under a 1/3 of my force lost (mostly skirmishers and cavalry) using skirmish and luring tactics and the battle took me well over an hour. The battle though was probably one of the most realistic in terms of how it went. Lots of posturing pre-battle, forming ranks and maneuvering for any possible advantage. A proper skirmishing phase with light troops and cavalry, cavalry engagements on the wings, harassing enemies lines with what was left of the skirmishers after theirs were finished. The Hastati advanced on the Phalanxes, after a brief period Prryhus committed himself and I committed my centre princeps and hit them with cavalry and skirmishers in melee from behind and rolled the enemy line from centre to flanks. I trust your opinion and so I'm gonna give this mod a try! A new challenge is always welcome and I hope I can have some more really cool moments

Im still playing europa barboroum, GOAT of all mods

[@phillipv3069]

I agree its a classic ::)

[@1983davidmurphy]

Great mod. It's like a whole new game. Battles can be slow and sometimes, for me anyway, a little too slow. But overall a great mod and a great review of the game.

[@otkroy_glaza]

Ave! How did you solve the problem with crashes after battles? 🎈😶

[@marekpetr2905]

[@thejonathan130]

Anybody here remember a mod called Roma Serrectum 2? Basically Rome 2 before Rome 2 came out

[@josiahcarpenter6677]

Have you tried the darthmod for empire total war? it fixes alot of the bad features in the original game.

[@johnmcmanus2447]

I think he did. I want to say he did a campaign as Spain if I'm not mistaken?

[@InternetLoser-rc2vs]

Is there a mod for Europa barbarorum which brings back original music

[@stephenhartley2853]

the saromatae are the sarmations, if im not mistaken scythia were wiped out by the saromatae about 300 bc and are not historically accurate in rome 1 as they were already wiped out but their culture is pretty much the same

[@david8157]

Hope you will consider a review of Europa Barbarorum 2; there is a new version
