CloseCombat CAI BAI v01 (Update 13.02.2015)

[Will.]

The files edited in the Radious mod are kv_fatigue, kv_morale and kv_naval, the close combat mod edits kv_rules and battle_entitles so in theory they should not conflict and work together.

[Will.]

Ignore that last post, I assume you was talking about his battle mod which in that case I don't know as I am only using the movement mod.

[Aspvr]

Can you please make this awesome mod Mod Manager compatible? movie packs don't show up on the manager

[Mephalamos]

Fix the phalanx? Do you mean fix the vanilla phalanx, or does this mod somehow interfere with the current phalanx?

Man you should do what Yarkis Personal Battle Mod (True Kill Rate Reduction)!

did . Reducing kill rates for melee . Battles would take about 15 minutes with a 40% reduction plus this mod... And that is perfect !

[The Black Ghost]

Tried your mod Luntik, it seems that my units hold formation even less now; also, the maintain a less cohesive formation when out of battle.

I believe that was his point... The vanilla units are too tightly packed together and unrealistic. I have not tried this mod yet but if what you say is true it is a welcome addition.

Try putting your units in phalanx mode (or applicable formation) That might put them in a closer formation.

What this man said

I'd like to see edits to Javelins and Slingers. Than this combat mod will be perfect.

Give slingers and archers a little more range then reduce the damage.

Yah, they can barely get a shot off, they seem a little useless

This is simply amazing! Remind me of good old Med 2 combats, but much more responsive. Love it!

[HateDread]

I love the look of the combat, but most units seem to jiggle around when they move (any Roman units seem to jostle around in their formation when marching places). This is really distracting

[Luntik]

HateDread, it will also be fixed today.

More staginess and longer battle.
Warriors keep a distance between themselves.
Enemy unit can retreat and then come back in battle.
Unit speed reduced.

Instalation: Unpack and place into Rome II data folder.

Good job, sir! One quick question,. Once I unzip your posted file can I simply copy and paste the Close_Combat.pack file in the data folder or does the Close_Combat.pack have to be unpacked? I ask because the unpack file listed further down this thread does not work for me. It seems to be looking for installations of Napoleon tw and empire tw. Thanks in advance!

Looks great, trying out now.

And what we would have 2 same mods? I prefer this one unit cohesion is the first thing that must be modified in this game and this mod is doing it.

P.S. Can't wait for the update!!!!

[Puerkl8r]

does the bug that effects phalanx also effect the roman shield formation?

[Luntik]

Good job, sir! One quick question,...

Unzip posted file and simply copy and paste the Close_Combat.pack file in the data folder

Puerkl8r, yes.

[DarthShizNit]

Is there anyway to make the phalanx have 5 pikes pointing foreword (IE having the first five ranks engaging in combat, unlike now how it's just the first 3.)?

[midnite]

Puerkl8r, yes.

Thank you for answering so quickly!

Lunatik does this mod WORK with RADIOUS MOD?
