Well, the senate has decided to grant me my fleet, and it will be ready by the autumn, so the war will begin as the campaigning months come to a...

It's just plain old RTR platinum edition 1.9 with no extra changes. I may however change the Triarii to half size soon as there was half as many of them as there were the other maniples. But no...

The War Diaries of Flavius Macrianus

This isn't actually any quicker. In fact it's slower, but much more enjoyable and gives me the chance to speak through the characters and tell more stories. What do you think people?

The Diaries of Flavius Macrianus and the 2nd 'Legio'

In the summer of 275 I began my march north with my legion. Although I was in command, I was not yet a Legate and the legion was unnamed. This...

The Diary of Publius Laevinius and the 1st Legio

The year 275bc was an easy one. We had taken Paestum the year before and now marched home to Rome for re-supply and to be re-equipped for the next...

To progress the story quicker, but to add extra intrigue, I will post war diaries of each Legion's comander. They will be posted similtaneously tomorrow night. They will be the diaries of Publius...

Would there be any complaints if I sped up the Italian campaigns to get to a different arena. Like Iberia or Gaul? I just don't want the Italian Campaign to last too long.

Part 6 - Safety and Peace

I apologise for this update as fraps didn’t work and I have no screenshots. ARGH!

During the winter, the 1st legio followed the Carthaginians, Quintus was allowed into...

No update tonight. I had an update ready to do with quite a few interesting developments, but there was a 3 second power cut, but needless to say I lost a fair bit of work (including college work)....

To Chapman: Yeah I just paused that game to have a look at the state of the battlefield and then noticed those elephants slaughtering my velites quite comically and couldn't resist.

To Augustus...

Chapter 1 - Italian Campaigns

Part 1 - The Alexander of the East
It was the spring of 280 bc and the legions of Rome were prepared for war with the Greeks in the...

sorry for not being clear. If you are patched to 1.5, download RTR platinum edition which has its own sub forum here. I'd get the most up to date which is RTR PE 1.9.

And yes RTR 7 is purely for...

Hey

1) I think the specs are the same as vanilla RTW but don't hold me to that.
2) RTR is 250mb roughly for gold edition, and i think a bit more for RTR platinum edition. Just so you know,...

Glory for the Republic - Roman AAR

Seeing as RTR 7 has yet to arrive and I’ve got the new RTRPE 1.9 and the 4tpy mod with leadership built in, I thought I would have a go at an AAR. It will be a...

Hey I've found a problem with the new 4tpy mod with RTRPE1.9. Despite serving for twenty years and the counter stopping. No matter what I do, I can't get the trait General/Praetor, yet still get the...
