Description:

This is a compilation of the best mods for Rome 2 Total War.

The combination of these mods makes the Rome 2 Grand Campaign a challanging and fun experience as they all improve upon existing mechanics which did not have as big of an impact as they should have had. I have altered and tweaked them to make them all compatible and to work well in conjunction. Although the game still keeps its vanilla feeling, you will definitively notice the difference.
The links to all the individual mods i have combined will be listed below. Credit goes to those very talented modders.

If you have a suggestion or a mod that you want to see added ( and if it fits the scope of this mod ) write a comment. If you like this mod give it a thumbs up and also on all the individuel mods i listed below 😉

What this mod does

– Making the AI more aggressive. This leads to situations where you may be caught in a multi front war or where you have to face other large AI factions mid to late campaign. Diplomacy has also changed. Other factions will not endlessly hate you anymore after a war but are more open to negotiations. You´ll also have more diplomatic options to choose from.

– Most buildings now require resources to be built, especially economically valuable buildings. So you either have to negotiate trade deals or have to conquer regions that hold the required resources. There also several new resources which you can obtain in your campaigns. Some resources can also be obtained by building special industry buildings (which may require a different resource to be build in the first place 😉 ).

– Changing political values to make civil wars less likely in the early campaign and to provide more bonuses or penalties based on your political power. Traits and talents have more impact, both positive and negative. Diplomatic missions now have more possible outcomes.

– Changing economic and upkeep values. Units are generally 30% more expensive and the income from taxes is lower than before.This is compensated with new options to make money. The newly added resources and the altered slave mechanic, which now can boost you economy quite a lot together with the "Sell Slaves" edict. So waging war and making Slaves is a viable option for short term income boosts.

– A lot of little things, like wonder effects that are more significant, armour improvements are better as well as being able to recruit more and better units from your client states and satrapies.

– Changing combat to be more enjoyable and realistic aswell as making deployables and tower defenses more useful. This is my own contribution to the mod and it is based on my Dynamic Combat & Morale Overhaul mod which informations you can find in the link directly below.
