Hello everyone. Any glimpse of a chance that Rome II can have a huge map like RTR: Imperium Surrectum?

[KAM 2150]

No plans for that.

At the moment Rome 2 campaign modding is still not possible as Rome 2 has no battle map editors so even if you would use these new tools for Attial, you would get CTD or huge bugs when fighting in added terrain.

I do apologize if this has already been covered before. I've searched and searched but haven't had any luck.

Where is Cleopatra's son and heir? Was he removed for a reason or is this an oversight? I haven't been able to locate any reference to him being removed for this mod. So if I'm the first to make the suggestion, could he be restored?

Hi! Has Imperator Augustus campaign less scripts or features than regular Grand Campaign? I realized my campaigns in Aug are much easier usually than the ones in GC

Hello, your mod is the best for me.

Any Sub mod to increase buildings slots in each city ? I see screens where city have 10 slots... but i have no link for mods/sub mods. Thx

[Wulfgardt]

Quick question,i can not choose any Desert Kingdoms factions in campaign or custom battles,they simply are not showing.Every other faction is there,i could choose them on previous versions but not this latest,i own all DLC so that's not the issue and everything else about the mod is working fine,anyone got any ideas as to why this is happening?

After a little digging it seems i do not own that one DLC which is rubbish because i purchased every DLC and as i said i played them in previous versions.......strange.

Hi, i have another request ; new diplomatic option please, with possibility to give an city to an allie (utility when you allie lost all city, he have just one boat to survive...) ; and possibility to request city if ennemy want peace etc...
And my last question, as a new request ; increase possibility to build with more slots, and create lot of news buildings

[KAM 2150]

You can't add more options like that. If you go to submods, there is a scripted one that lets you get but not give, cities from AI.

As for slots, we are not planning to add more. Whole process takes a lot of time and if not done with a lot of care, can create crashes.

Main reaon why we won't increase is that all building bonuses were made with current limited slots in mind.
We have increased the limit a bit so that all capitals have 6 and all minors have 4 slots as it does not break building balance that much.
Current building effect entries are 50k+ lines, that would need to be manually adjusted to work properly with more slots.

Any plans to support the augustus campaign? or the empire divided one?

Does Dresden's Hardcore submod still work on 1.3.2 or 1.3.3?

How does using a general as a city governor work nowadays? I swear in the past if you put a general (with no units) in a city they acted as a governor of sorts and got experience for doing so. I've had some generals doing that in my current save, but I've just realized they haven't gained any experience at all and it has been like 20 turns. Am I wasting my time? Does this no longer exist? Is there any benefit to leaving a general in a city?

Disregard! I was looking at the army's xp, not the characters! Working as expected.

Anyone found Thrake regions with -37% taxes? i have 0 income from them so it's annoying and pointless to take that region

[Vardano]

Is there 12 turns per year mod which works with Rise of Republic? Standard mod seems to be working only on Grand Campaign.

[Hrulj]

I am really enjoying this mod but one thing that ruins it for me are endless scripted wars that stick you in a conflict that there's no way out of for 100 turns or more until total anihilation of the enemy. Specifically Carthage and Rome. The war starts trough a scripted event, thats awesome, a bit of history, but then as Rome there is nothing to do but fight Carthage spam after spam and destroy them wholesale in one single war while invading all of its territories because they refuse peace no matter what. I would really like a way for scripted peace as well to allow for several separate wars between Carthage and Rome and also to allow Rome or Carthage both to spice up their experience by actually fighting something and someone different. Maybe an event that once Sicily and Sardinia are taken there can be peace between the two until they start clashing again in Iberia?

Can't seem to get the DeI Discord working for couple of days. Only can see the welcome and rules sections. Any had same issue?

[Alantin]

Hi, a few things I found:

1) Missing descriptions:
- "-10% regional income": it applies to the local region and not to the province --> please change this to "-10% income in local region"
- Many Skills and some buildings are missing the classification when the Effect triggers (5-10 % of all skills are unclear; 1-3% have comletely missing info). Conditions e.g.: [parent army][deployed][in local region][with skill]; (e.g. Healer Skill)
- Agent info panel: which "actions" apply in which conditions? some entries are unclear (e.g. spy infiltration is passive)
- political intrigues change influence which isn't mentioned (e.g. organize games)
- homepage guide: tables of population gain in low conditions seem to be wrong (checked with Caledone faction turn 1-10)
- spy deployed: Campaign movement speed scales with cunning / Research buff with Zeal

2) Missing documentation (this is a real pain!)
- influence gain/loss: it is not just "gravitas/turn*ambition. What are the other "hidden" factors?
- Region effects: how do region effects apply? Do they apply to the whole region (e.g. -10% tax) or are they sepaerate (Trade +5% -> local or in province?)? (There also seem to be wrong numbers in the DeI Homepage map: Tests with Caledones in Great Britain and Gallia have shown very inconsitent results compared to the stated region effects)
- experience gain for generals and agents / Skill point gain per level

3) balancing - some suggestions:
- influence loss is too hard to acomplish! even with sacrificing all own members (sorry Vercingetorix, you have to conquer the city alone. Otherwise the other ones will rebell and take 60% of all our land...)
- Caledone faction:
->reform units are worthless (too expensine or not better then alternatives)
-> building balance: too many buildings with "-10% regional income" (many regions get crippled with -30 to -55% regional income); bad port building and navy; buildings are inferior in nearly all aspects to all other factions I played
- buff Spy cunning line (all that's worth is +success chance)
- remove "-10% regional income"-mechanics completely and substitute those with fixed costs or -emp. maintenance: that would reduce the need of overspecialisation of provinces

4) Guides on the Homepage:
Thanks - they are really helpful and make DeI enjoyable!

5) Hope for the future:
A test map: small map; each faction playable; owning 4 complete provinces at gamestart; much gold; 2 enemy factions with each 2-4 provinces

[Request] Can the agent speeds set equal to army speed in water?

At the moment, Agents can slow armies down very much. This especially true for armies in the water.
Not sure if movement boni do not apply to agent when in army or if its another reason. It seems also water speed for agents is very low in comparison to armies.

Oberservation/Test:
2 Armies with +15%-20% movement (army+general skills); 1 with dignitary, 1 with champion (+15% movement)
Remove dignitary at start of turn in water --> +50% movement range
Remove champion at start of turn --> +30% (land, only horses in army) to 70% movement range (water, infantery in army)
