you must include kingdom of kartli (wtf flag lol)
all hail the flying spaghetti monster!
Pyrrus will be included, he didn't die until 272. At our starting date, the Battle of Beneventum is just about to take way, so you, the player, will have a great role in the outcome of the war.
The Battle of Beneventum was the final battle of the Pyrrhic War when the outnumbered Romans inflicted heavy casualties on the defeated Greeks, while sustaining heavy casualties there self. This was a very good victory for Rome, because they were outnumbered in infantry, cavalry, and the Greeks also had Elephants.
So, this will be good for the player, because if they cannot reproduce such a vital victory, the that might spell the end for Rome, or the war might go on for years to come.
The date 275 also works very well in the Hellenistic world, because a lot of nations are currently been formed in that area, including some Celtic ones, and a lot of events are about to unfold, which will give the player a colourful experience.
So yes, you will still see your Pyrrus
EDIT: More about Pyrrus. We will not make his death fixed on 272; he only died because a city stealth assault went terribly wrong. We will definitely try to make Pyrrus' gameplay great; the war with Rome, succession over the Makedonian throne, installing Cleonymus on the Spartan throne; all in 10 years.
EDIT AGAIN: Because Pyrrus was "the last of the military adventurers" he will have a lot more options, events and possibilities than other nation rulers

I had Phyrrus survive well into the 250s BC in EB.
FREE THE NIPPLE!!!
He could have lived longer but I keep quitting. Or I end up killing him as the Makedonians.
FREE THE NIPPLE!!!
I'm ready to help the mod with historical research if new people are still needed. I'm not a professional historian or writer but I'm a big fan of pre-roman/roman historical period and know this topic quite good aswell as ready to search for any additional related information
Good luck to you guys, really wish you well, hopefully if you stick it out your going to have a great mod on your hands only a year or 2 after r2 release, thanks to the preparations.
Good luck, by toutatis your going to need it
Thanks Ultra123, and August, why would ca fully support mods for shogun 2 then not support them at all for rome 2 there biggest game ever?
Umm, isn't it a bit silly to start a mod this early?
i think EB started early.
all hail the flying spaghetti monster!
Good research take time as stated in the OP
I've spotted some "inaccuracies" of the units already (some would consider it accurate, but they are not right). And the pace at which those units can run at seems rather insane, especially considering the order of their formation while doing it! Further considering that these armies were only militia. I saw the Carthaginians keeping their formation at a sprint fairly well too.To be fair they had seen those history channel shows that used the Rome battles in them. They knew it was gonna be inaccurate.
On the other side though, the game looks AMAZING! Really looking forward to the navy battles
