SPQR- Total War is a total modification mod for Rome: Total War. SPQR- Total War aims to modify Rome: Total War in many aspects but the team has put an emphasis on the Roman Military by modifying the system of recruitment and training of all pre-marian units and legions. This mod is not a mod for people who want attack all there neighbors at once either, the SPQR- Total War team have implemented very large battle times so as to make it difficult for someone to blitzkrieg there enemy. SPQR- Total War makes Rome: Total War much more strategic and tactical, you won't get away with using cheap tactics ever again in Rome: Total War.
