Mod or Vanilla?

[Scutarii]

Do you play modded or vanilla Rome? If you do play a mod, I'm very curious as to who plays what. Personally, I play Extended Greek Mod (XGM), and vanilla for MP.

[LeonidasOfSparta]

Well I play XGM, MM, EB and 1.5.

I like Mundus Magnus and XGM most, maybe even MM more beacuse Rome is not unifed like in XGM.

I voted for vanilla. I think I may have to vote for mods next time though because of the huge map I have just seen.

Cordially, Lord Romanus III

i voted mod. i play RTR. its fun and all but im thinking of going back to Vanilla. conquering greece, carthage, and gaul with one faction is hard!

[Prince_of_Macedon]

I voted Vanilla because most of the MP community plays vanilla. I'd rather have a better opponent than a more historically-accurate mod.

Mods lots and lots of mods vanilla hurts my eyes..... and i dont play online anymore

[Amroth]

Mods. FATW - The New Shadow right now.

[Hattori]

Mods of course, SPQR, Roma Surrectum, RTR, EB, Rise of Persia and so on...

I'm not going to vote as I go to and fro all the time.

[Marie Louise von Preussen]

Both.

Vanilla.

I once modded the game to make the Celts playable in BI. I also modded my current game with RomeSage in order to alter the date to avoid a recurring CTD.

Used to play RTR PE before it broke.

Singleplayer: Mods (chivalry, eb and xgm these days)
Multiplayler: Mods

If it wasn't for mods i would have stopped playing this game long ago.

[Korinther]

Only mods. I want to conquer regions like Persia and India. But the vanilla isn't bad and the most units are in my modded version exactly the same (I only changed the units of nations I like to play).

[Subrosa Florens]

For the most part it is mods for me. But I still like vanilla sometimes too. It all depends on what faction I am playing. For example, the Greek Cities are much better to play in XGM.

I can't seem to vote but if I could I would vote for vanilla (maybe someone can vote on my behalf?). This is because I have gotten into MP and most mods overwrite the vanilla version so that you can't play both. I find that playing a vanilla campaign on very hard/very hard provides a good enough challenge for me.
The mods that I have played were all good and I'll likely try some out in the future, but for now MP provides the most interesting challenge. No matter the mod you can't get the same level of competition from a computer.

You have to have 50 posts to vote.

I play Vanilla first and after I've played and won with most of the factions, I try out a mod for a new challenge. Currently on Darthmod.

[Ludens]

Europa Barbarorum. I also have Napoleonic: Total War 2 installed, and intend to try the next releases of Arthurian: Total War and Rome: Total Realism.

[Teleklos Archelaou]

Mods of course! Perish the thought of the alternative.
