Hello people,
I have recently finished the first step in creating a little submod that I have made mostly for my own amusement.
The main goal of this submod, as the name implies, is to make the faction rosters of the factions I am playing with historical, or as close to that as possible.
I have found the current situation of DeI in that regard is very much lacking, so I have undergone through creating this.
While doing this, I have mostly concentrated to use the existing units of DeI in a way that would make them more historical, while plugging any "gaps" that were made by removal of units (and removals there were...)
There are currently no new units added with this submod, and although I do plan to add some with time, it will probably take a long time before that happens, as I have a very rudimentary knowledge of that part of TW modding.
So without further ado, here is the submod:

A BIG disclaimer:
This submod is a WIP. God knows when it will be finished, or will it ever be finished. I plan to keep working on it as I play the game, and find stuff that really needs tweaking.
The current version of the mod features a redone roster for Carthage only (as that is the faction I have been playing the most, and for which I did fairly extensive research).
Other factions will come with time, but it will take time.
Also, the current version of the mod is bundled with the submod that translates most of the unit names into English. I might do a separate version later on, but atm, I have no time for doing that.
I would like to thank, and give credit, to the wonderful modders of the DeI team, and all other people who have took part in creating the content I have further modified here. Without them and their effort this game wouldn`t be worth playing.

Same as with any other submod. Drop into your "data" folder in your Rome 2 directory, then enable it in the Mod Manager (it should be in front/above other mods by default).
