Complete Byzantine Unit Roster Project

The Complete Byzantine Unit Roster Project (CBUR) is a mod, which aims to add authentic, historically accurate Byzantine units to Medieval 2 Total War.

History

At first, the project started out as a part of the Dominion of the Sword mod, but soon became a standalone mod for Medieval 2 Total War. There are three unit roster projects for CBUR, as seen below going from oldest to the most recent:

· The armies from 700 AD to 900 AD

· The armies from 900 AD to 1079 AD

· The armies from 1080 AD to 1453 AD (Most Recent Project)

Description

As stated above, The Complete Byzantine Unit Roster Project aims to bring the player new, authentic and historically accurate troops to Medieval 2 Total War. The player has the option to download three different Byzantine unit rosters (see above). On top of that, the mod was designed so that players can use CBUR with other mods as well, even their own.

Features

These three Byzantine unit rosters focus on three different and unique time frames in Byzantine history. Each unit roster is different and historically accurate to the corresponding time frame. The differences in the unit roster simulate the changes that the Byzantine Army went through, throughout their history (in this case from 700 AD to 1500 AD).
