Lines of Battle: Rome II
A tactical gameplay modification for Rome II: Total War
Lines of Battle is a tactical gameplay modification for Total War: Rome II. We strive to make Rome II a more enjoyable game, while also maintaining a level of realism and historical and historical accuracy. Battles are overhauled, units rebalanced, missiles reworked, and much, much more (read below). Soon Lines of Battle will become a true overhaul, and lend itself to the truly epic experience that Rome 2 deserves, with totally overhauled factions, allowing one to progress from the early period to the late in a manner that is historically plausible. See below for the current features!
Features:
-Units are slower
-Fatigue has a slightly faster onset, and brings more of a malus
.-Melee is prolonged and tiring, and will not end after 5 minutes of combat.
-Units will hold the line much better, less blobs, more discipline.
-Morale is reworked, units still aren't lead by Gerard Butler or anything, but morale should be more dynamic.
-Romans have been bludgeoned with a nerf bat, eg: Hastati no longer have stats comparable to other factions elite units.
-Transports also taken out back and bludgeoned to death with the same bat.
-Three Versions included with various sizes: vanilla sizes are self explanatory, Moderate sizes are 1.5x and Large are 2x.
-Less difference in heights for units.
-Less dirt thrown up, and some impacts should have no dust. May increase performance, also looks better.
-Various and assorted balance and game fixes to make the game more enjoyable from my perspective.
-Naval missile changes, No more sniper ships.
-Artillery aren't more accurate than modern howitzers
