FEATURES

UNITS

- Increase size of all units. Most infantry have between 200 and 300 men and all cav have 80 to 100 men. - Recruitment pool for peasants conscripts and militia have been doubled. - All general units (characters) and unique units have had their health decrease to 1. - Stats were changed for some units. - Recruitment of generals disabled. - Recruitment of Nanman Elephant possible with higher tier port. - New units : War Chariot, Mangonel, County Spearmen are now Urban Spearmen (Halberds) and introduction of County Spearmen (Spear & Shield), new bodyguards for Dian Wei and Zhang Lu - Increase number of siege engine : Ballista = 6, Catapult = 4, Mangonel = 4 and Trebuchet = 4.

BUILDING

- All settlement can build community buildings (camps) and districts to replenish armies from all regions of China. - Second tier Tavern now gives +1 free upkeep. - For Huge Cities, recruitment slot increase to 4.

ECONOMY

- Resources income have been considerably increased. - Merchant have been totally replaced by Inspectors. They play the same role, but in a more immersive way. You can now have a total of 10.

CHARACTERS

- Many starting cav units have been replaced by infantry to prevent a bug with general units. - ALL ancillaries are transferable. - All portraits have been replaced with more decent artworks (less arcade-ish). - Many new characters (as starting character, as Unaligned and as emergent one) : Liu Zan, Zu Mao, Zheng Jiang, Zhang Chang and sooo many more. - Name variety for all faction agents, previously all of them had the same family name as the ruler of the faction. - No family tree since it is not needed at all. Every significant coming of age will be through scripts if you play the scenario of your faction. - New ancillaries and more to come (will be savegame compatible I believe).

GAMEPLAY

- Mission for all factions save Xianbei who are sandbox (conquer, exterminate and repeat). - Nanman and Xianbei can't recruit assassin or inspector. As for Shanyue you don't start with an Inspector but can get one with the appropriate building. - Bandits are now everywhere (hiding in forest). - Traits & Skills reworked for many characters.

MISCELLANEOUS

- A LOT of typo correction, bugfixes and such. - Resources model on the stratmap are now villages. - UI small tweaks

Great stuff!

May I suggest to change the thread title to [submod] Rise of Three Kingdoms : Ultimate Edition, it will then easier to notice it as a sub mod thread. You can change the title by going into advanced edit mode of the opening post.

For greater posterity I would suggest to zip your upload and then upload it here at TWC. Install instruction would be:

Place zip file into mods\rotk folder and unzip (7Zip is freeware), allow overwriting when prompted.

I see you linked directly to the download button instead of the download page - unusual, but effective .

[R.P. Gryphus]

Updated the first post, still no download link though because I'm still working on it.

can you add more unit specials in Barracks ? example "White Plume" or Tiger punch?

[R.P. Gryphus]

If they are already in the game, sure, but if not, I don't have the skills to create model for new units.

Soon. Still working on Goguryeo campaign. After them, I'll do Xianbei. I'll work on the Shanyue too, to make them more of a challenge by adding 5-6 characters. Then I'll upload a link and finish the rest with patches.
