Extreme hot summers will make armies suffer attrition so if your getting attrition every 4 turns that could be the cause. I think having a baggage train in the army mitigates the attrition effect but...

I think he's asking for more uniform unit cards?

Was Thrace, Illyria and Dacia called the Balkans at the time though? Was that area ever referred to as the Balkans around 200BC to 200 AD? Or is the term Balkans modern terminology?

Don't be sorry mate these submods make 12tpy great again! Thanks

Any luck with that table? If not what are the %increases for each type of turtle part? I'm guessing Huge is 300% vanilla, in my last rome campaign I think I got polybian reform at turn 120 I think....

What are the actual turn numbers for the different reforms? Vanilla polybian reform is turn 40 so what's the %increase for the different levels ie Small-Huge? Is small polybian reform like 50 turns...

Would it be possible to give all factions a faction trait that allows them to recruit units with xp. Like how sparta can recruit spear infantry with xp and Parthia who does the same with horse...

Thankyou so much, guys like you are keeping this game alive! It's mods like this that keep me coming back to Rome 2 again and again.

Yeh I rarely build teir 4 region capital buildings. When I do all the other buildings in the region end up just being buildings to counter the negatives. So late game pretty much all my regions look...

Erhmergerd Erhmenia update for Saturnalia. You guys are far too good to us.

wow heavy shock cavalry charges are f'ing brutal. I just tested companions vs imperial praetorian and the praetorians just got flattened by the companion charges. They did kill quite a few of my...

^^ Legend doesn't play mods hes mentioned it in his videos many times.

I was quoting Dan Carlin and I think what he meant by it is that 2 legions fighting in macedon compared to 26 fighting carthage illustrates how dominant the roman mililtary became after its life or...

I've never seen the AI use a night battle against me so I think you should be fine.

^^^^^^yep

After the punic wars Rome steamrolled the rest of the known world rather easily. For example, the Romans raised i think around 26 legions to fight carthage. They would then conquer macedon with a...

My favourite part about my medewi campign was that i had to rely on Aor units and mecenaries to balance out my armies. Using tactics i've never used before in battle to overcome superior foes was a...

Yeh elephants will get beat by heavy melee cav more often than not if they are on their own. This has been my experience anyway, but if supported by another cav unit they can be devastating. Charging...

they have sica-bearers as an ROR unit.

I imagine they would have still used the quincunx formation because of its mobility. A straight line is far less mobile than a checkerboard so I think they would have stuck with it. Whether they...

Marius himself used a 3 line deployment and so did Caeser.

Yes cohors are region specific auxiliaries that you get by building auxillary barracks in certain areas, i think there is a map in the...

When i played sparta i was having the same issue and i had made Hellas a pure military province so i was able to recruit hoplites in sparta with 2 gold chevron. But i was only ablt recruit like 6 in...

When seiging put your whole army on one side of the city and 1 or maybe 2 of your best units on the other side and give them the ladders. The AI will put all of its troops on the side where your...

You can build a barracks in macedonia and recruit hoplites thete and then disband them in sparta which will raise the population. The population goes up straight after so make sure you re-recruit...

Nice, when in doubt Blitz!

I havent played a suebi campaign with the latest patch but last time I went straight for the town to the northeast hiring all avaliable mercs and recruiting the marcomani pikes. I think I attacked on...

If you make Athens a client state you can leave a general in atgens and you can levy actual Athenian hoplites. It takes a while as you can only levy 2-3 units each turn and they change each turn. In...

I got around this by making Hellas a pure military province with 2 temples and any other building that gives 1st class bonus. I think I managed to pump out about 30 spartan hoplites all with 2 gold...

Spend all your money on mercs and troops on sicily and attack syracuse and liberate them. Rome won't attack them probably and you can focus on spain and africa without having to worry about rome for...

I've noticed a couple of times now that when I put my army near an enemy city (up against the red line around it) and wait for them to come out and attack me during the end turn phase. After the...

Parthia- 1st turn, hire all avaliable mercs and recruit 2 of the best units you can. Move north to your border and then the next turn attack xarasm. You can usually just auto resolve and then after...

Couldn't agree more, im 120 turns into a Sparta/Hellenic League campaign and it's easily the most fun one yet. I love how many liberated factions there are now, instead of having 4 big empires owning...

wait was worth

Be sure to derive the correct reading of the entrails to ensure the gods favor before charging the enemy. gotta love the old spartan magic 8-ball battle plan.

Parthia is for sure the easiest of the horse archer factions, they get an extra bonus to ammo from tech and you they have far better buildings and tech imo. You don't need a full stack in fact I find...

Rome gave you apollonia? how? is region trading in the game?

Playing DEI on vh or legendary is really more of a chore than it is amusing. Just my opinion but there's no real challenge in having your elites get pwned by levies, that's just annoying.

Pikes OP
1. Nothing can beat them head on unless its like Super Elite vs Levy.
2. Take walled cities by using a Ballista to make a hole in the wall and take out surrounding towers, your pikes can...

Sweet, im making a videos of famous battles using DEI so ill just work on other battles in the meantime. Thanks so much for all the work you guys do btw, absolute legends, you guys have made Rome 2...

I played a campaign with Sparta where I literally had the entire map, every single faction as my client state on the first turn. It started just non-aggression pacts with everyone and basically just...
