DarthMod RTW
Created by DARTH VADER with little help it aims to create a mod concerned with able tactical mad AI. DarthMod is a unique double modification for both RTW-BI. That means if you own both Rome:Total War and its expansion Barbarian Invasion, you get the chance to play 2 full modifications for them which enhance them very much in terms of gameplay and graphics.
History
DarthMod 8.1 was released in this thread on September 22, 2006.
The latest version (v9.0.1) was released on November 19, 2012
Description
The mod is a complete overhaul for the vanille Rome: Total War. It provides an enhanced AI -including unique formations for the enemy to use-, new maps and campaigns, new graphics and features, new historical battles and many more.
Features
- New more dynamic fatigue system that changes (indirectly) how the hard coded fatigue affects the units. Before the units would tire too much, especially when the battles are long, and this made the troops to become too slow and ineffective (due to the very harsh hard coded penalties). For some very light troops you may watch them to never get tired but this is better than having an army of exhausted troops that run with -50% less speed (the hard coded parameter that is insane).
- Movement modifiers balanced for the new fatigue system.
- Better Arrow, Javelin, Pilum damage balance.
- Roman units have now slightly more men and are balanced accordingly. They are very tough to win overall.
