  1. Re: The Plebeians Seceeded, then disappeared completely.

    That's a relief. Though it HAS been some 70 turns since the Plebes disappeared. Hopefully another faction pops up soon - I seem to run short on generals. Thanks.
  2. The Plebeians Seceeded, then disappeared completely.

    So it's been some years since I did a Rome 2 play through. Always used DEI. I'm familiar with the civil war mechanic - my Plebeian faction got rowdy, stole an army and some boats. Normal. Killed the...

    Really lost regarding town centers...

    Hi, new to the mod. I've tried to research, but I still don't really understand how I'm supposed to build town centers. The Gameplay guide from the sticky seems to be out of date, as none of the...
  4. Re: How is the balancing? Is it better than Attila's?

    Please don't go too crazy in the name of "Balance"... This isn't a sport, it's war. "Fair" doesn't enter into it.

    I'd be much happier with "realistic" than with "balanced".

    Re: Genealogy/Ethnic Traits

    It's true. It makes me sad how far this franchise has strayed from the format they had for Rome and Medieval 2. I started playing on Shogun 1, and have owned every title (not all expansions, but each...

    Re: Greek/Macedonian start pos

    Have to say, every game I've run it's been Athens. Without fail. A few times it looked like one of the others was going to get a break, then Sparta backs up Athens every time and Greece turns blue.

  7. Re: Why does AI only attack cities from 1 side ?

    It's so sad that the AI is both terrible, and unchanging. Not only can it never be creative, it makes terrible choices. My biggest qualm lately is when a unit routs at the top of their ladder......

    Re: Slavery not authentic.

    Yeah, that's definitely beyond my depth. No modder am I. If anyone wants to give it a try, I would be happy to test it. If it's save game compatible I would have a few campaigns in various stages to...

    Re: Slavery not authentic.

    True. I'm not familiar with how the code works behind the scene. Hopefully it's as simple as adding/changing the values.

    Re: Slavery not authentic.

    I think so too. This would not make thinks like slave building chains or edicts obsolete, but rather force you to think about how and when to use them. Which I think is their intention to begin with....

    Re: Slavery not authentic.

    As to your comment Dresden, it's true, as increasing levels of slaves took over jobs in agriculture and industry, unemployment rates did rise. This was seen primarily during Caesars conquest of...

    Re: Slavery not authentic.

    As I said, if the income bonus for the slaves needs to be nerfed to go along with the easier PO, then that should be done. Personally, I'm more interested in getting my challenge from my enemy than...

    Re: Ai is again passive

    I tend to find myself "growing enemies". I grow my economy. I make powerful friends. I drag those friends into wars with their weaker neighbors, funding the war. When I have several large empires to...

    Re: 40 Stack Armies?

    40 unit armies in Napoleon was fantastic. It lent itself well to army balancing. It was nice to have a good ratio of men to cannon and have that many guns on the field.

    Re: Slavery not authentic.

    This.

    It's not a question of strategic micromanagement, it's a simple idea that the ancient world was driven by slaves. Rome and Sparta in particular. In Sparta the slave population outnumbered...

    Slavery not authentic.

    I think some serious work needs to be done in the area of slaves and public order. It's come to the point where I simply don't loot or take slaves. Currently, my slave pop in Cisalpina, just for an...

    Re: [Official Submod] Turns per Year Options

    So I love the 12 TPY option for the grand Campaign, but it seems like the Imperator Augustus Campaign is stuck with 4TPY. Is there a 12 tpy for IA that I may have missed?

    [REQUEST] 40 Unit Armies?

    I remember playing Napoleon TW with DarthMod. One of the awesome features was the ability to play with double sized armies. 40 units under 1 general. Is that possible to attain in Rome? I would love...

    Was having trouble getting this to run. When I searched it on Steam I came up with a 5 part pack, which was CTD from loading screen. Careful examination of the pack indicated it was VERY out of date....
