OilConsumer's Addon V2.1

FoE Forced Diplomacy Addon
By Caligula Caesar

I made a force diplomacy addon, so those that are frustrated by the AI being plain stupid can at least make the AI declare a ceasefire now. You generally need to give them 100 denari first, though, and they won't give you something they can't give.

Imperator II
By LestaT

Like what Bouis did with his Roma mod for RTR 5.41, Imperator II is a minimod of Rome base on RTR Platinum Edition (v1.9), playable only for Roman faction . The game starts at 280 BC, during which Rome was under threat of invasion from Pyrrhus of Epirus, and ends as late as 180 AD, utilizing the 4 turns per year script. The idea of this mod is to make Roman more harder and difficult to play that regular RTR version.

Heirs of Atlantis II
By Arbaces

A very long while ago I created a concept which had it's first purpose to improve the Dacian faction from RTR but also extending to other tweaks to the gameplay. This concept started right after RTR 6.0 Vanilla (not Gold) came out, initially named Dacia Total History, then renamed to Heirs of Atlantis from my very own pride and from Platon's statements and Mircea Eliade's analysis. The improvements to the Dacian faction are an attempt to increase the player's interest on the Dacian culture which was neither greek, nor celtic, nor germanic though these influences existed as well as many others. Above all the northern Thracians had their own unique culture.

Rome Total Realism - Gold:

By RTR Team

RTR 6 Gold was a major milestone in the history of modifications for Rome: Total War, and was one of the first complete overhauls of the game. Designed for R:TW patched to 1.2, it was developed by the Rome Total Realism team and its main aim was to provide a more immersing experience, achieved by adopting a more realistic approach to the game and, at the time, included a number of unique and revolutionary features.
