Successors of Rome – Romanisation mod
Tired of seeing the Goths, Franks, Vandals, Suebians, Burgundians turning Roman cities into Wooden Barbarian towns? No more! This is a mod which completely change the historically romanised germanic factions into Romano-Germanic faction group from "The Last Roman DLC" to correspond historical facts that these peoples were building their kingdoms on the basis of former Roman administration, culture, and ideas. These once friends and foes of the Empire are know to have preserved much of Roman cultures as we can see in modern day Italy, France, Spain and Portugal.
So now you can persue the idea of "Renovatio Imperii" and bring back the Empire’s former glory with these worthy successors!
These factions now have access to TLR Roman building chains when settle and still retain migratory building chains when horde. Plus their cities both in campaign and battle map will now look as proper Roman! But note that you’ll have to convert grand campaign roman chain into yours first since they are two distinct chains.
-Alter the faction group of Visigoths , Ostrogoths, Franks, Vandals, Burgundians and Suebians into the Romano-Germanic group from The Last Roman DLC. The Langobards are still grouped as barbarian but have access to certain units below.
-Give these factions an access to buildings and units from TLR eg. Milites, Milites Comitatensis, Spear Milites, Spear Milites Comitatensis, Veterans, Spear veterans, Domestici, Iuvenes, Sagittarii, Elite Sagittarii, Ballistarii, Vandali Comitatus, Vandal Noble Swordsmen, Foederati, Foederati cavalry, etc.
-The Franks can recruit ‘Cornuti Seniores’ when occupying Roman settlements due to their historical proximity to the Empire.
-The campaign character sets are now the ones from TLR.
-Roman voice-over for modified factions instead of barbarian one since they saw themselves as representatives of the imperial authorities.
-No more unit upgrades so now unit rosters are very diverse mainly for the modified factions
-When horde, you still have vanilla migratory building chains but you won’t be able to recruit romanised unit until you capture or convert a settlement.
-Units tweak which enabled and add some units from certain factions for various factions like Germanic and Celtic units for Saxons, Germanic spearmen for Alans. Some units are shown in custom battle.
-Altered faction/uniform colours for certain factions ; Dark blue for the Franks, Teal green for Suebians, More reddish tone for the Visigoths. Violet for ERE. Cyan uniform for the Alamans.
*Incase if you don’t have TLR, This mod still works without additional units from the DLC.
Also, I highly recommend you to play this mod with ‘Dynamic Faction Names’ mod for the aesthetic.
-Horde buildings still don’t need techs to upgrade.
-Fixes general recruitments and upgrades. You can now upgrade your general properly with technologies.
-Re-enables Salian Frankish Lancers and Frankish Lancers. They are available from level 2 barrack.
-Added garrison for Legendary Government building.
-Removed some left over entries to optimise compatibility with other mods.
-The mod is now compatible with new ‘Langobard Romanised’ mod.
