Description:

This mod adds more diversity and flavour to the Baktrian faction units. Added serveral quality infantry units from other factions and also some special units from the Beasts of War DLC.

With this mod you should be able to play with more infantry focused armies instead of relying primarily on cavalry.

The mod does not add new units, only uses what’s already in the game!

Compatibility:

  • Works only with the Grand Campaign and the Custom Battle Mode
  • The mod should be compatible with all other mods and was made for the latest version of TW: Rome 2 Emperor Edition (v17, 20th August 2015). Should even work with future updates since its not altering any original data.
  • Beasts of War Unit Pack DLC is not needed, but without you are missing some of the fun units of this mod.
