    Default [Released] SPQR Renatus

    This mod adds a new playable faction to the game: S.P.Q.R. Nova Roma.


    The idea behind this new separatist faction is that a group of military hardliners have broken away from Rome, seeking to go back to the older and more proper ways.


    NEW UNITS


    Auxilia Hastas
    Auxilia Gladiis
    Auxilia Equites
    Auxilia Archers
    Legionary Cohort
    Legionary Cavalry
    Praetoriani Nova


    These units are exclusive to Nova Roma, and have been (fairly well) balanced versus vanilla units. Both the Legionary Cohort and Cavalry units are able to be built very early in the campaign, in order to balance this their cost is greatly increased depending on the tier of the building recruiting them.


    Tier 1 : 2.5x
    Tier 2 : 2.0x
    Tier 3 : 1.5x
    Tier 4 : 1.0x


    This way you are able to recruit very powerful units at an early stage, but you will bankrupt yourself quickly if you try to build more than a few. As you progress through the research tree and upgrade your buildings, their cost steadily decreases until reaching it's normal value. The stats of the Legionary units have been balanced according to their final cost.


    The Auxilia units are also very high quality, and are buildable right from the start, but they are also fairly expensive. However I may add cost scaling to them (at a lesser curve) if feedback shows they are too strong.


    Nova Roma's naval and artillery units are the same as the other Roman factions.


    This is the first release, I do have more planned, but I wanted to start getting feedback to get (and keep) the new faction balanced as it grows and progresses!

    Nice idea, perhaps make them pagan and give them the older R2TW Banner?

    Thanks, they are already Roman Pagan, and I think I will stick with their current banner.

    This is a cool idea! Both the "what-if" scenario with a new roman faction and the original idea of making top units available from the start as very expensive and decrease the costs for each building upgrade. Also good choice to start this faction in Syracusae.

    I'll suggest another new faction for a future version, a Romano-british faction based perhaps near Hadrian's wall, this one instead of giving classical roman-looking units make it a mix of roman with celtic, developing into a King Arthur and Camelot inspired units

    The link is no longer working since Malis has re-made a very, very similar mod under the name Imperium Praetoria. It's also on Steam Workshop, though
