This time around I decided to consentrate on my very favorite event in history. The date is 526, the begining of Belisarius' campaigns. This version includes an entire new map and starting locations. The Visigoths in Spain, Vandals in africa, Ostrogoths in Italy, and Franks in Gaul. The Saxons are fighting the Romano-British for Britain. The Ostrogoths are fighting the Vandals for Sicily. The Visigoths are fighting to take all of Spain.

Belisarius has just finished his first campaign against the Sassanids. He is ready to go under Justinians order to regain the Western Roman territories under Roman control. Starting with Africa. It is your choice what to do now. Go to Africa with Belisarius and take Narses to Italy? Or different? This isnt faction specific, play as anyone. Every faction is available.

I feel that this adds a whole new playabilty to BI. Instead of the Romans controling 2/3rds of the world, the Ostrogoths, Vandals, ERE, Visigoths, and Franks control the territory. All big kingdoms, all with their own problems. Find out for yourself.

This entire map mod has been constructed by me.

Follow the simple instructions in the download and play. There shouldnt be any problems this time, if there is, report it here.

Have a good campaign.

how do i install

how do i install

An easy way to do it would be to take the files, go to into your bi directory, and drag the downloaded files over the corisponding files and overwrite. That should work.

I simply love the timeframe. My favourite in Fall of Rome for MTW...!!!

Finally ive found someone else who has played this awsome mod! I too love that time period "Justinian and the reconquest of the west". Awsome map SEL! King of Atlantis could you perhaps get the RTR east included aswell? Right now the Sassanids are to small and too weak.

Here is my Bug list:

Factions and Placement:

Factions agent have'nt been moved. E.g. Vandals start in Africa, agents in the steppes...

Visigoths are to much like the Huns.

Characters:

Names are the same from BI Vanilla, 150 years ago. Faction Leaders are the same, so are family members, agents.

Only bugs I can think of at the moment, I'll post more later.

P.S, could you add units? Visigoths have hunnic lancers and such. Even if you just change the names of the troops it would make it better!

Well done indeed Seleukos with this map, a truly awesome creation for sure.

I hope that some of the mod makers will use your map, with your permission of course. As I have found that I am now caught between the rock and an hard place in decided on whether to use your phenomenal, and much preferred, map OR to use the BI enhancement pack created by Borsook. I guess that they can't be used together as there is an 'overlap' of files that are modded. A real pity really as I do like Borsook's game 'fixes' but I do think that your map has superb potential....!!!!!


Borsook's excellent pack

[Kscott]

hey, Sel great map! Im working on getting your RTR north in, but I am still having some ctd's. Hopefully will be playble soon

[piko]

i'd rather have it in the original timeframe but it looks like a job well done.

[player1]

It would've been great if this could be started as Provincial Campaign, instead of needing to replace original files once again.

[John I Tzimisces]

Belisarius = great mod without even trying it yet. I assume i delete the map.rwm? anything else?

[John I Tzimisces]

I know this is just a mod to the timeframe and territories of the map, but did belisarius really use infantry like those of the early 5th and late 4th century roman empires? I'm curious because I badly want to see a mod accurately reflecting that period, and this map is a great start.

[rtwmadman]

[rtwmadman]
