Age of Bronze Submod – Official Faction Unlocker
Play every active faction in Age of Bronze.
The Official Faction Unlocker submod for the total conversion mod, Age of Bronze, removes campaign restrictions and allows you to play as all active factions available in the mod.
Whether you want to lead a small rising power, a regional minor kingdom, or even a big crumbling empire (looking at you, Empire of Mitanni…), this submod opens the full geopolitical landscape to the player’s control.
In addition, it includes a handful of lightweight stability improvements to ensure a smoother campaign experience as any faction.
Full Faction Access
- Unlocks all active campaign factions
- No artificial player restrictions on the current playable map
- Experience every culture and regional power first-hand while the next official updates to the main mod are still in active development
Campaign Stability Improvements
- Faster AI turn processing
- Minor backend optimizations
- Some minor bugs ironed out (e.g. no more missing character names)
This submod focuses purely on access and slightly improved stability now that every faction is playable. However, the main mod is very much still a Work In Progress, so you should still expect some bugs and occasionally a few crashes during play. If you happen to experience any, please report them and try to provide a save file if you are experiencing consistent crashing in your playthrough as this will help us iron out bugs in the main mod.
- Subscribe to the "Age of Bronze" total conversion mod (linked to the right as a requirement).
- Subscribe to / install this Official Faction Unlocker.
- Ensure this submod is listed above the original Age of Bronze mod and enable the mod in your launcher or mod manager (check screenshot gallery above to see how your load order should look for this mod).
- Play the game. You must start a new campaign for this to work.
- Compatible with the main Age of Bronze mod
- Recommend to start a new campaign, do not enable/disable mid-playthrough
- The factions besides Hatti and Egypt are all a Work In Progress and have not yet been fully developed. They currently lack unique government actions, unique custom events, detailed starting families and may contain potential bugs. If you encounter any issues, please report them with as much info as you can give (e.g. detailed overview, screenshots) and please provide your save file if you are experiencing consistent crashing in one of your playthroughs so that I may triage it.
- The submod Absolute Bronze is incompatible as-is without a compatibility patch. I will be creating a compatibility patch for both submods in the near future, as it is a fantastic expansion to Age of Bronze.
