Hi Gigantus, thanks for replying. The original version of my previous post covered a troubleshooting step-by-step guide of which versions/methodology/order I tried to finally get BGR V working over...

Whilst this compilation was sorely needed, and I thank Gigantus for creating it, I'd just like to highlight for anyone intending to play BGRV that BGRV is not compatible with Meloo's Bug Fix...

EDIT: This post was originally longer and posed many questions, but having spent a good 5-hours researching/trawling this thread and various spin-off points, I've redrafted it to assist others (and...

Hi all,

Thanks for your replies over the past few days. I've read them where possible, but have been too busy at work to reply. This is the first time I've sat down at my PC since initially...

Thanks for feeding this back!

Hi all,

Not played DeI since early-2017, pre-Power & Politics. I loaded it back up a few weeks ago but was overwhelmed by the multi-layered systems. I decided to persevere and after watching...

I thought I'd read that naval attrition was disabled to prevent this? Or are you playing an old campaign that's incompatible with the latest versions?

Hi all,

I've been wanting to play a Rome prequel campaign with a historical twist for some time. I was happy when RotR was announced but never played the vanilla version because, well, it's...

There is definitely something wrong with Dooz's file - almost every army I've seen from Papal States, HRE, France and Scotland has 10 Feudal Knights in it...

I've just stumbled across this post....

Hi all,

Returned to SS6.4+BGR V recently and I'm currently further than I've ever been (which isn't saying much). I've been noting down things to ask I go. I was hoping to get more down before...

I went with BGRV in the end and am having a blast. Got further than I ever have before, so far, and really enjoying the attention to detail and micromanagement required.

Tried SSHIP but found the...

Hi all,

Gonna reinstall SS tonight but really struggling to decide which of the above submits to play. I've played them all at one time or another over the last decade. Could do with a rundown of...

Any update on this Dresden? Watching an old Let's Play that's just restarted because of this update (recorded last year), but I'm mindful R2 now has a family tree... So is this addon necessary for...

I can't play due to revision. Can someone please do a YouTube Rome let's play? :yes:

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to tell more of a story through use of pictures when I next get round to playing.

TURN 7:

OTHER FACTIONS' MOVEMENTS / GLOBAL & FACTIONAL ISSUES:



London is struck by plague, killing 14% of the population within the first six months. A further 11% are estimated to die...

Hi all,

I wanted to report on my first campaign in SSHIP, having been away from Stainless Steel for about 4 years. I haven't got masses of time to play, let alone write about playing, and if other...

I'm in my first campaign and my previously son-less King has just given birth to a son, but his nephew remains the Faction Heir. I note this script is only compatible with a fresh campaign, but Lift...

Not yet witnessed it (as I'm still on Turn 1 of my campaign) but inclined to agree that in a mod attempting to replicate historical accuracy, it's a poor show if the Papal States are so aggressive...

I'm no fan of agent spam, or agents in general really as the games have gone on - too much micromanagement... But I understand the concept of a game being about 'choices' and every decision should be...

Does every region have them, and you take control of them once you own the region? Or do they only exist for the factions starter regions? Fog of war is a game mechanic and automatically removing it...

I haven't chosen permanent watchtowers in the SS_Setup, yet in the campaign I just started, England already has 3-4 watchtowers? I don't want to load SS_Setup to double-check because of the warning...

Hi all,

Sorry if this has been asked a million times, but apparently my search keywords are too short for the filter...

Is the latest version (or any version) of BGR IV-E compatible with the...

I've just reinstalled:

1.) 6.3
2.) Steam Version Fix
3.) 6.4
4.) BGR-V 20150324 (link to last known download: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=329244&d=1440972691 from...

Any idea why sometimes when I attack Arretium it's a settlement, and the majority of the time it's a field battle?

Got the latest version and started a new game as Rome, Nobiles, Very Hard. Turn 2, Syracuse declares war. I want to Client State them eventually so I went to offer them peace and tried to trade as...

What I mean is, what happens if I liberate say, Arretium, after defeating the Etruscan League, when they are the original owners? Or is their an emergent faction for almost every starting settlement,...

I can't make my mind up between Occupying and Looting Arretium and Taras.

With such a weak initial income, I need the money boost from looting immediately to help build up the economic strength of...

I'm playing all Ultra but my game doesn't look this good? Are you guys using a graphics mod, or just adding photoshop effects afterwards?

Quick question, didn't warrant a new thread - what happens if you liberate a faction who presumably originally owned the region you're liberating?

Has it been noted that the spy's "Poison Well" ability kills no one in the garrison?

Dresden, is there a building tree somewhere that covers all buildings in DeI, their upgrade levels and what benefits they afford? As a new player to the mod without prior knowledge of "ideal builds",...

Small one - the region effect on the province overview in the bottom left of the screen...

Either Cosentia or Benevium or whatever it's called, the region name is 'Mount Vesuvius' on the icon when...

You're right that legions had attachments of alae - usually on the flanks, but artillery didn't feature in standard land-legions, at least not until much later into the Republic; and with a 20 unit...

Here you are, sir.

The province pane is a bit buggy as to which region icons it shows (the one where it says what bonuses that region gets and helps you to make informed construction decisions). E.g. Latium has 4...

@Dresden - Only mods are DeI 1.2 Parts 1 & 2, and then English faction names, English unit names, and RTW Music Mod. Have verified my cache (only installed the game yesterday) and it's still doing...

I'm afraid it hasn't helped me, Dresden,

Roman campaign as the Patricii, Normal-Normal, got to Turn 8 having taken Arretium & Taras. On End Turn, it gets to Icini (who I can't see yet), the sound...

I know

The Triarii (early) unit's "drag-out" icons are so small compared to other units that you can hardly see the formation you're putting them into.
