  • Settlements are well-developed and both their population and happiness level was increased.
  • Darth Formations and Darth Campaign AI are included.
  • New Faction: Teutonic Order
  • Gunpowder units have an important role right from the beginning of the game.

Additionally, almost the whole map is divided between the nations, meaning larger territories for individual factions.

History

Ramtha (now called Axe Battler) made the first version of this mod. Then, a couple of us helped him with bug hunting and fixing, and later even made our own tweaks to it, making a new version of the mod. With Ramtha's retirement from modding (and, for a time, from TWC), we became the new makers of the mod. Unfortunately, development of a planned new version came to a standstill due to the lack of 3D modellers. We wanted to incorporate a whole range of new, Renaissance-themed units, but could find no one able to make models for them. After that, the team scattered. That meant 2.75 remained the last version of Renaissance Total War for a long time. Later, Condottiere Giovanni d' Medici created his own fix for the mod, which is currently the latest release of the mod.
