Divide et Impera is a total overhaul of [[Total War: Rome II]] that seeks to provide a challenging, historically accurate, realistic experience of the ancient world and warfare.  The mod had its first release in 2013 and won both TWC's and Creative Assembly's awards for best Rome II Overhaul in 2014.  The mod had a major update to version 1.2.4 which was released in December 2018, the update included a complete Battle Stats Overhaul based on KAM's Experimental Pack and a Campaign AI Overhaul by ScipioTheGreat and many other changes. Work in 2019 continued with a further update to version 1.2.4b, which, as well as balancing changes and bug fixes, adds 70 new ancillaries to the mod.
