Thank you for your amaizing work!

Now i can play a new Syracuse campaign! And i love it!

Does steam update automatically? Part 1, 2 and 3 say subscribed, and I now see the link to the DEI site in the load save box.

Never mind, I see now that it does.

Now to figure out how not to get voted off the island, Sicily...

Congrats! We the community are thankful!

Thank you DEI team for the new update!

Thank you for all the amazing work that you do!

Congratulations to the entire team for another fantastic update! The new features are excellent! Job well done!

Hotfix 1.2.7a today to fix a few bugs from release.

Congrats to the release!
I resumed a campaign with a friend, but even when we had a baggage train within our armies, the ammo still remains the same as without.
He's playing Selucid and me Etruria. (small bump ;-) )

If campaign was started before baggage train update was added, it wont work.

thanks KAM2150, I thought that only the change notes with (new campaign only) would not work within an existing campaign.

Quick question, with the release is the version safe compatible and are the official submods working with 1.2.7?

This is absolutely fantastic, thanks a lot guys!

Can we know more about that 1.2.7a hotfix?
How do I apply it? What exatcly does it fix? Do I need to start a new campaign or I can continue the one from 1.2.7?

Yes

@Gioseppe
You can read the patch notes in the Download thread and it is applied like any mod update. If you have Steam it auto updates, if you have the standalone you need to download Part 1.

Great work, really enjoying the mod. Especially the new Syracuse

Gre_Tarantine_Cav is in cav_shk class now
Is it right or mistake?
Thx

If I was using the Steam version + @@@@Fixpack127 (1.2.7 beta), with that beta at the top of the list, were the beta's changes overwritten by the main mod when 1.2.7 was released? I have saves that were made in that state, and I'm wondering if it's safe to remove the Fixpack now that 1.2.7 is the mainline version.

yes, should be safe

This is correct, there are 2 types of tarantines now, factional ones that were used as shock cavalry and original ones that fight as skirmishers, you can get them as mercs and AOR.
