IMPERIUM GLOBALE v1.04 (compatible with the update v1.5)

[Boicote]

IMPERIUM GLOBALE is a mod for ETW about the global empires of the 18th century and theirs overseas possessions. The objectives of this project include the conversion of trade theatres in conquerable regions and the addition of more regions all around the globe to represent the great colonial empires with more realism. This mod is not a total conversion. It’s mainly a vanilla based mod.

The credits of this work go to MrThib and his mod "Révolution Francaise". This mod is no longer compatible with the latest patch, so I updated it, fixed some bugs, and included it in IMPERIUM GLOBALE.

COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER MODS

You can play this mod with other mods (to manage you mods I recommend you to use the Mod Manager).
But note that if the other mod you are using includes the file “units” (in the folder “data/units_tables), then you may have the new units of IMPERIUM GLOBALE unbalanced. If the second mod includes the file “units_stat_land” (in the folder “units_stat_land_tables”), then the new unit models of IMPERIUM GLOBALE will not be shown.

UNINSTALLATION

Use the uninstaller program (it's in the main game folder C:\...\Steam\steamapps\common\empire total war).
