FAQ for Para Bellum

This mod unlocks the 393 factions of the game, with family trees:

Grand campaign: 4 TPY and 114 factions to choose
Imperator Augustus: 75
Empire Divided: 57
Rise of the Republic: 44
Caesar in Gaul: 47
Hannibal at the Gates: 35
Wrath of Sparta: 21

Note: To choose DLC factions you need to own that DLC.

– Walls for Rhodes, Syracuse, Lilybaeum, Numantia, Jerusalem, Tyros, Nemossos, Palmyra and Arse. These cities preserve their original resources, but don´t show the walls on the GC map.
– More historically accurate GC borders for Carthage, Lybia, Egypt, Cyrenaica, Cyprus, Sardes, Galatia, Seleucids and Media.
– New initial armies compositions for GC factions.

Though I recommend to use all the modules together, they can work separately so you can apply what you want, but keeping the order regardless of the number of subscribed parts.

Even though Para Bellum is designed in a modular way which facilitates compatibility, each part is independent and is specifically designed to work together with the other mods of the collection. Please note that Para Bellum includes lots of new tables and thousands of new entries, and if combined with other mods of the same type or that share content, it will be overwritten and will mess up proper functioning although the game runs apparently fine. Therefore, I only bring support for the mods included in the Para Bellum Official Mods and the Submods and compatible mods Collections that you can find above in the description.

– Multiplayer compatibility only if both players have exactly the same contents (mods and/or GEMFX installed and subscribed). Also the Para Bellum Multiplayer patch is highly recommended (contained in the Para Bellum submods Collection).

– Compatible with all DLC campaigns and contents.

– Ancestral Update (Patch 20) compatible.

This mod would have not been possible without the modders who very kindly gave me permission to use their terrific content in this project. My sincerest thanks and appreciation of incredible hours of hard work and dedication, goes to:

Nor Dogroth: Nordo’s Faction Unlockers – All factions playable, Imperator Augustus, Caesar in Gaul, Wrath of Sparta
