Description:

This is a submod for RTRPE Remastered, which adds some new regular factions and ten rebel factions, similar to the Western and Eastern Roman Rebels we have in BI.

How to install:
-subscribe both RTRPE and the submod, enable them in the mod manager, then move the submod on top of the base RTRPE, as showed in the picture above.

What is included in the current version:
1) three new playable factions: Mauretania, Epirus and Mauryan Empire

2) rebels (= shadow factions) for ten factions of the base mod:
– Seleucid
– Macedon
– Egypt
– Pontus
– Armenia
– Bactria
– Parthia
– Numidia
– Carthage
– Rome

3) for these factions, characters’ loyalty is influenced by the Faction Leader’s own influence;
– for charismatic leaders will be easier to keep their generals and governors under control, whereas weaker rulers will have more troubles maintaining united their domain.

4) descendants from former rulers have claims on the leadership; this can reduce their loyalty.

5) some improvements on the campaign map: Siga and Icosium in North Africa, Gorneae in Armenia.

Credits and special thanks:
– Drtad/Gudea and Ahowl, for their porting of the original mod
– the team of the original RTRPE – they made one of the best mod of all time
– Jack Lusted and the authors of Imperator II Apocalypto – some units for Epirus and Mauretania are their work (more details in game, into units descriptions)
– everyone produced guides and tutorials, in the almost 20 years of this great game
– everyone in the Rome Total War Community Discord provided help and suggestions
– my artistic talent and expertise, although they haven’t visited me for the whole time spent on the mod.

Known issues and unfinished content:
– missing campaign descriptions for the new factions
– missing description for some buildings (especially temples and shrines) for the additional factions
– UI cards for new units need some improvement, but they are in place
– many units still need proper textures for the new factions
– Maurya should be fully playable but is not properly balanced – play it at your own risk
– the Faction Leader’s influence on the other characters’ loyalty requires one-two turns to be adjusted, after the succession to the throne.
