Could indicate more exactly this mod does not quite understand.

This really hits the spot in the run up to Rome 2, if your looking for a tidy little MP campaign with someone, can't wait to play some more later.

Well, essentially, it tweaks unit prices, accuracy, ranges, ammo, unit sizes, build limits, the tightness of formations, ship hull strength and such.
Nothing massive, really.

Is this better than Bran Mac Born's edits?

Is this better than Bran Mac Born's edits?

Ive not seen Bran Mac Born's edits? Do you have a link? but for the most part after playing this mod, this play fairly similar to darth mod, except some things have been changed in an attempt to make the campaign run smoother, while still give the players decently huge battles. Another thing thats been tweaked are the ranges of the muskets, and cannons, which now makes battles play out alot more realistic imo, meaning that line infantry could attempt to duke it out with skirmishers although the results would pretty much be a victory for the skirmishers unless you can give volleys at a closer range, or pour more lead in there direction.

Knowing TarEldamir personnally, he adore this sorta era, so i assure you his tried to keep things as personnally realistic to the period at the time within reasons of gameplay. Unit spacing is near spot on historically accurate, as well as the ranges troops engaged out. Also protecting your artillery is alot more vital, differentt Ilbs cannons will have better punching strength or killing factor at ranges, but even the 6lbs can see of mighty 12lbs with clever deployment, while trying to score ricochet hits to the cannons to put them out of commission, but at those ranges wouldn't have a chance of actually killing the manning crew,

He intentionally made this mod just for me and him to play somthing that contained all the buzz of darthmod, while not crashing to desktop evey 5 seconds, This is a campagin multiplayer mod, that uses alot of darths material, while tweaked to add more depth into realism.

So if your looking for a singplayer campaign i wouldn't really advise it, but for multiplayer campaigns, which it was made and tweaked for, i think you may enjoy it. Also as i stated sharpe/taeldamir made this personnally for our use, but upon reading some peoples threads on an unplayable MP in darthmod, i told TarEldamir to share his magic.

Hope people enjoy it as much as we do, or provide people with a new pace to battles and enjoyable MP campaign.
