Call to Arms: The Ancient World
If you like this mod, please rate & favorite!
This mod tries to bring greater variety and more distinction to Imperator Rome.
It adds more levies, more legions and further graphical distinction between legions/levies consisting of mostly heavy unit types and the ones mostly made up by light units.
That way, you can evaluate your own/enemy armies by their appearence on the map. (And it adds flavour.)
It also enhances the ratio at which you actually see the heay variants.
The levy appearences try to represent their "militia" character and clearly distinguish them from the legions, while bearing in mind that militia soldiers weren’t necessarily poorly equipped. The greek hoplites as self-equipped citizens are a great example for this.
This mod is an ongoing work in progress, all cultures and important/famous states and tribes will eventually get their unique look with the continuous addition of custom assets
Screenshots are taken with Julianos’ Nations Refined activated, Banners and changed nation colors are not part of this mod.
As all (most?) mods, not ironman compatible.
Should work fine with other graphical unit mods, as long as they dont change the mentioned nations.
Upon Update 1.5, this mod now includes and expands upon the great Mods from Mobjay (Celtic Flavour amongst others) – check out his amazing work here:
