    Can you upload it somewhere else ? I got a strange issue that doesn't allow me to get it working with steam versian. It looks promising and I really want to try it and give feedback

    Heya all, Author of the mod here chiming in, the mod makes a lot of changes, but I'll try and list them out here. First off I will say that the base of this mod is built off the hard work of Junaidi83's better CAI mod, I've just been tinkering with it throughout the months to get a custom tailored experience of what I want outta the AI.

    Big Changes
    -Changed AI recruitment weights to lower the amount of levy units the AI recruits.
    -Diplomacy is vibrant with offers, wars, haggling and demands of tribute.
    -Modified AI Army templates from Litharians Better Recruitment Mod
    -Military Logic from Junaidi83's mod used, without the siege weapon recruitment changes, with some tweaks to defend better.
    -Mitches Major Factions script is used with Rome, Carthage, Seleucids, and Egypt set as major. Can be modified within the lua_scripts.
    -Playable factions get a small income boost, AI gets a bigger one. Some scripted extra gold for select factions only when AI controlled.

    Misc. Questions
    -No known Multiplayer Campaign issues
    -No changes to Units or the combat system, find your own flavor there and enjoy.
    -Savegame Compatible but new games are recommended for the full experience.

    Just a warning, I will be making changes based off any weird behavior I see or little tweaks as a try and make it even better so if its being updated just assume its nothing game breaking and I modified some number from 8.5 to 8.6 or some nonsense like that .

    At first I was wary with the screenshots showing blobbing and sprawling barbarians, but these two changes are pretty much what I've been testing on my own time with very good results.

    Will give this a try and see how the ai does.


    Your first change, the ai recruitment rate, as well as the army templates aren't actually necessary though. Augustus's barracks change sub mod plus increased cash actually already has the ai recruiting more elite units than before.

    Yeah even without the change I still see armies of elite/high tier troops, Its just extra padding to encourage a better fight.

    Just to be clear this is not an official DeI mod in any way. We are doing our own in-house work for 1.1 on many of these issues.

    I am not encouraging/discouraging its use, just stating it for everyone

    I've been using this today, I'm almost at Imperium level IV now. Several times already factions declared war on me, and I could immediately make peace with them the next turn. Most of the time I got them to pay me money as well for the peace treaty. Is it because of this mod? I can't remember this happening before, at least not as often. Or perhaps it's because I have a powerful satrapy (I never used those much in earlier games) which isn't initially taken into calculations?

    Yeah the AI is more likely to sue for peace based off the perceived power of their aggressors but when it comes to people with a grand alliance sometimes its not factored in until war is declared, Its still a work in progress between having a AI that will realistically peace outta a losing fight and a AI that will fight to the end stubbornly.

    (Edit: Steam version updated with fix)

    This is the thing !!! I had this in vanilla , in DeI and many other mods. When AI declares war on you he just thinks of your power balance. When the actual war starts and when your satrapies enter battle it AI immidealty wants peace with huge cash giveaway. I hope this can change, didn't tried your mod yet but i hope this will be fixed
