Casus Belli, often abreviated to CB, is an Italian mod for Rome: Total War.

History

Originally created and developed by the Italian team called Alaudae Team, the Rome Casus Belli project was stopped at the beta version 1.0.0 (subsequently updated to 1.1.0. with a patch). Modred, who was the Alaudae Team's leader, made a new edition in 2009, called Rome Casus Belli Classic Game. The in 2010 Iulianus Apostata made another new mod project called Rome Casus Belli Gold.

In late 2012, the Casus Belli Mod Team released their latest version, version 1.8.0.

Features

Factions

All Rome: Total War factions were used, although some were renamed. This is the Casus Belli faction list:

Scripts

Casus Belli includes a lot of changes regarding scripts, namely:

  • Historically accurate scripts, Rome: Total War's historical srcipts were deemed inaccurate and were changed by the Casus Belli Mod Team.
  • Four military Roman reforms, in order to be historically acurate, Casus Belli introduces three additional military reforms for the Roman factions.
  • 4 turn per year script, this tweak prolongs the amount of turns that can be played in a single campaign.
  • A new AOR script, units can only be recruited in certain regions, like elephants in Rome: Total War.

Units

  • Casus Belli adds a lot of new historically accurate units to the game.
  • The remaining units are reskinned. This was done to add more to historical accuracy.

Miscellaneous

  • With new units, a new timeline and somewhat different factions, new historical battles were a logical addition to the mod. Casus Belli contains several new historical battles.
  • Like new units, new buildings have also been included in Casus Belli, either to be able to create the new units, or for gameplay purposes.
  • The current version of Casus Belli, version 1.8.0, is only available in Italian.
