I've played every Total war game except Rome 2 due to it being shit when it came out. I'm ready for fresh grand campaign. How to get the most out of Rome 2, what mods and DLCs are a must to get the full experience?

My Divide et Impera campaign goes well, Ptolemy's hold on the East and Africa is crumbling. Other empires and alliances are rising however

Can someone post that knight waving the banner gif?

you're definitely going to want radious's unit mods bery gud

I fucking hate new unit cards for Empire Divided. They should've stuck with Rome 2 unit cards.

Is there a single example in history of units of Roman gladiators being recruited into the legions?

They all look so sad. Still better than those awful pottery unit cards though.

No. Gladiators were basically the same as modern professional boxers or UFC fighters.
Chase Anderson
My only problem with Rome 2's cards was that for some reason every faction has unit cards in the style of Greek pottery instead of having ones based on the art style of the culture the faction belongs to.

Does anyone have any idea if there are any good AI recruitment mods?
So goddamn sick of the AI just spamming highest tier units, or fighting 7+ Forest/Black/Star Dragons per stack, and fighting meme AI comps of 10+ Cavalry, or stacks of purely Lothern Seaguard, Chameleon skinks, etc.
I want to fight fun even battles, with the occasional stomp on my end or fighting against a higher tier more elite enemy army.
What I don't want to fight is armies made entirely of Lothern Seaguard, Shades, or Longbeards/Organ Guns in EVERY.SINGLE.STACK.
So again, any mods out there that make the AI a little more fun and balanced in its army comps?

Literally nobody but the Pope wants to be friends (I build a lot of churches so we're besties) Also, should I stop and build up once in a while? I've just steamrolled through Western Europe so far so had no need to

Anyone here use any of these? I just need something that'll deal with some of the retarded spam some factions do later in the game, and I don't want the game to devolve into Highest tier possible doomstack vs highest tier possible doomstack

>ca claims that the saga game will feature a level of gameplay change similar to shogun to -> fots >its basically AoC 2.0 How in the fuck is it going to be any different than Charlemagne, especially when you consider that there aren't any cav heavy factions on the isles until the normans show up at the end of the campaign time period?
Liam Bennett
Better AI Army Compilations and Recruitment by Minos I use these the result seems pretty good, even norsca has stopped using meme stacks

Ryan Peterson
>implying the normans will show up This saga game is just a way for them to get away with doing less work with the excuse "it's just a minor sega game not a main game what do you expect"

That's not the problem. The problem is that Fantasy is dead.

can someone please tell me how to aim spells like seafang or flaming skull?

I'm more worried about CA doing jack shit to improve ME. If it keeps going like this we're gonna get a clone of I. There is so much stuff to improve with minimal effort.
Caleb Flores
Point the line straight at your own infantry and fire
Christian Myers
Well at the very least we're getting the Reprisal Update. Otherwise we have SFO and other mods to do CA's work for them
Hunter White
how do i change direction though?
Julian Williams
can't aim in wh1, only wh2, so if you are playing one and trying to aim seafang you can't
IF you are playing wh2, you hold the left click when placing the spell and move your mouse around to aim it
Carter Gonzalez
>Otherwise we have SFO and other mods
Mods can only change stuff I don't need to be changed.
I fucking need >land battles at sea (on island, black arc, frozen sea, what the fucking ever) >revamped Chaos Tide invasion (Chaos strength increasing and not based on player's expansion) >better diplomacy system
Kayden Jenkins
>can't aim in wh1 goddamnit
Jose Bailey
>>land battles at sea (on island, black arc, frozen sea, what the fucking ever never gonna happen >>revamped Chaos Tide invasion (Chaos strength increasing and not based on player's expansion) never gonna happen >>better diplomacy system never gonna happen
even if they were 100% focusing on warhammer 2, none of those things are ever gonna happen.
Leo Sullivan
urg hold left mouse and move the fucking mouse to change direction
Cooper Brooks
Those are unrealistic expectations if I ever saw any. I think CA's done a pretty good job of making clear the standard they've set with WH2's semi-bungled post-release period. Don't forget that ME is for all intents and purposes a beta right now, seeing as it doesn't even have content that's already been released for WH1 in it.
Asher Thompson
just realized you can't in WH1, which explains the confusion >urg go back to neofag
