I will check it.

[Gustav Mahler]

Hello. What is your plan with this submod? Are you planning to develop it further - like changing stats, adding new skins, new unit cards and new units...?

[Athos187]

Sounds interesting, does this change the starting armies at all? Would love to have an empire mod that just lets you start out fighting the massive wars of the early 18th century instead of doing the slow TW build up.

[Miguel_80]

Hello guys. Exactly, polish the campaign with some units to factions who need it and balance stats to improve a bit the battles, for now being I have modified in some troops and ships morale, stamina, etc... And what I have pending is reviewing why generates me the EsfEditor a "startpos.esf" file corrupt if I clone units, in fact I wanted to start with a good consignment of ships in the Mediterranean for confronted them.

[Marvzilla]

Hey nice mod, does this change and or add units and textures as well ?

[Miguel_80]

Thanks Marvzilla! Yes, I have to organize it.

[Crazy Clay]

Nice! Better year to start the campaign. The default campaign it doesn't make sense, there is no succession war, they should have fixed the year 1713

[Miguel_80]

Thanks! True, moreover in the vanilla, the Spanish faction begins with a "dead" King.

[The Wandering Storyteller]

Finally glad to see the old total wars mod being released!

[Miguel_80]

Thanks San Felipe! A bit of variety for the main campaign.

[The Wandering Storyteller]

Thanks San Felipe! A bit of variety for the main campaign.

Indeed, it gladdens me as I don't have to trowl through pages and pages of mods that haven't been updated or worked on, and they're so many good mods for Empire. So keep up the good work!

[Miguel_80]

Thanks for the credits and it was a nice collaboration.

To all WQA players:

It is mandatory to use my newest Unit Pack Compatibility Project - Empire (UPC-EMP) version to display the unit names and descriptions. I updated the UPC-EMP today.

Have fun with the new 2.0 update and the units.

[Trym]

Do you use vanilla or a custom AI in this mod? Campaign and battle AI.

Regards

Trym

[Miguel_80]

I haven't modified AI behavior.

[Sulpicius]

I haven't modified AI behavior.

Hi, would Brans BAI &CAI mod be alright with your mod?
1718 sounds like an interesting period so I just asking before I install. Thanks

[Miguel_80]

Hello Sulpicius. Bran Mac Born has many packs that modify AI behaviors, several are for the DarthMod and for other mods too. Which one do you refer exactly?

[Sulpicius]

Thanks Miguel_80 . I was looking at his Volley Fire version All infantry use mass volley fire. Better AI response- this mods unit size and stats to make longer battles.

However,he does have a file which just mods the campaign/battle AI with no unit changes.
Regards
Sulpicius

[Miguel_80]

Is the effect much noticeable? I suppose it's compatible with all units, right?
