This historical mod covers the great struggles for supremacy in Italy in the timeframe 333BC - 222BC.
After the Defeat of the Aequi, the conquest of the Etruscan city of Veii and the definitive submission of the Latins, Aurunci, Volsci, Hernici and the Campani of Capua, Rome emerged as one of the main powers in Italy ready to engage the other nations for the supremacy on the peninsula.
With the great invasion of the IV century BC some of the most warlike tribes among the Celtic nations settled in northern Italy; the surviving Etruscan cities, after the setback of the previous years, found the way for a more effective collaboration to contrast their foes. In the highlands of central and southern Italy the strong Italic nations were at the top of their power, expanding at expense of the Greek poleis of the old "Magna Graecia".
In the heel of Italy Alexander of Epirus, uncle of Alexander the Great, has just landed in help of the rich Greek town of Tarentum, aiming to emulate the achievements of his nephew; in the meantime the powerful Greek Syracusae is in continuous attrition with Carthage to control the rich lands of Sicily.

Hi P.I. team,

This mod is beautiful and unique.

NO ONE has done this era, very crucial for emergence of Roma.

I, as a lover of archaeology, salute and congradulate your awesome original work team.

Please release this soon :sweatdrop: It's too good!

How do you get onto the Capitoline and through the gate? Would you have to have a spy opening the gates successfully?

Its looking good, and its very exciting. The faction previews are nice looking as well.

Rome looks really great but I doubt anyone will be able to capture it, especially the AI.

I don't see the AI getting all the way up to the Capitoline to capture the citysquare.

ANIMATIONS PREVIEW by dsyrow1

The aim has been to make all soldiers' movements more realistic, more believable, and more natural. The task in animations is not just to create fancy new stuff while keep old things as awkward as before, but to make the whole gaming environment more pleasant and believable to the viewer.


Cavalry

All cavalry units have undergone a complete overhaul:

Infantry

New whole infantry skeletons have been created, including barbarian and standard bearer animations, and of course the latest versions of fs_gladius and fs_hoplite (standard bearer and the "surprise" screenshot were taken from vanilla units):

We're well on our way and going solid, yet of course always could use somebody who's a good skinner or modeler, to help us get the mod out faster (still need help to get things done). If interested, please let us know in this thread.

...thanks a lot for your appreciations; ...well ...I'm also the mapmaker of the mod, so the map is entirely my own work. Let me say that a mod which aims to re-make the whole game, actually needs almost a year (or more) of work ...we started to work on "Paeninsula Italica" in september 2005 ...my best wishes for your mod

Greetengs Luciano B!

First, I want to thank you for your great mod! Excellent idea, excellent models, excellent skins, excellent map, excellent everything! And I don't understand why the guys here... err, ignore this thread :gah:

I'm waiting for this mod since the 1st preview, and I must say that the previews are complex and informative. But some things are still unclear to me. Here they are:

1) Which way will the Pyrrhos army be represented in the game? Will you create some special models/skins for them? I think that Pyrrhos must be a mighty general with full stock of high level and UNIQUE (please!) units, landing in the south of Italy (just like in RTR). But I would like to know it for certain and directly from you.

2) Is there some kind of "Polybian" reforms for Romans? I'm not sure about the time when Velites appeared instead of Leves, Rorarii and Accensi, and when the Romans adopted chainmail armor, but it seems to me that it was before 222 BC and the beginning of the Second Punic War.

3) And finally, are you planning to release an open beta before the final release? ~:)

Thanks in advance, and sorry for my poor English.

First of all, I would thank Justiciar and iglauskas for their support ..at least we can still rely on a couple of fans:)

1) Pyrrhos' Army, and also the other invading armies of Cleonymus of Sparta and of Alexander of Epirus will be present in our game as spawning armies which will appear in the game by a proper script in the historical date of their arrival. These armies will include their own specific units, an will be reproduced like "rebel" subfactions.

2) The Roman army reproduced is the so called "Camillian" organization. It is not sure when the "Polybian" model entered in use, but some scholars suggest that it happended during the struggle against Hannibal, other instead suggest that it happened before. However it isn't any source which provide a precise date of the introduction of the "Polybian" organization. The adoption of chainamail armour by the Romans seem also to date after the assimilation of the Celtic tribes of northern Italy.

3)Yes, I would like to release a beta version of the mod to collect suggestions from the players and fix the wrong stuff.

Thanks alot for your answers, Luciano B ~:) This mod is the best (along with The Crusades by Caius Britannicus)

I don't think that you are lack of fans... Look at Paeninsula Italica subforum at TWCenter! But maybe you should post previews more often, making them smaller in size.

And in the end, one more question. Can you post some info on this Antesignani unit? I've heard about them, but I thought they appeared during the imperial, or, at least, late republican period.

Thanks, and keep up the good work!

...here I'm:)

...about the "antesignani" ...well, another very debated thing ...they are mentioned some times by Livy, but there aren't precise informations about their organization; they seem to be picked infantrymen drafted from the legion but armed with a lighter equipment, often ordered to run out and capture eminences of tactical importance; Livy mentioned for the first time the "antesignani" in his report of the battle of Lake Trasimene.

iglauskas
07-25-2006, 11:02
Thanks for the answer...

...but don't hope I'm out of questions! :eyebrows:

So, another portion of them:

1) You've made 2 Etruscan factions. Does this mean that they will be allied at the start of the campaign, in the same fashion the roman factions were allied in vanilla RTW? And will they hipothetically be able to begin war with each other?

2) Carthage is the only superpower represented in the mod (actually, Carthage was the only superpower in the Western Mediterranian during that period :laugh4: ). Will they get reinforcements from their main territories in Africa and Iberia? I think that it would be great for representing Poeni as the ONLY "imperial" faction in the game!

3) Are you going to make Latin allies for SPQR? They played an important role in roman warfare during the IV and III centuries BC.

Luciano B

I decided to start to post some minipreviews covering the mercenary, regional and foreign units which will be present in our mod. Let's start with the Spartans.


SPARTAN HOPLITES

Spartan warriors become involved several times in the Italian wars, since both Tarentum and Syracusae were Doric colonies often rescued by Sparta in the dangerous moments of their history. Southern Italy saw also a couple of expeditions by members of the Spartan royal house. In 343 King Archidamos of Sparta landed with a Spartan and mercenary force; he was killed in battle and his men surrounded and wiped by the Lucani and the Messapians. Next was Kleonymos, who brought 5.000 mercenaries from Greece, recruited 5.000 more in Italy, was given 20.000 Tarantine citizen foot and 2.000 horse, and was joined by other Italiote cities and the Messapii. He was feared by Taras as he was too ambitious so he turned his attention on the northern Adriatic for an attempt of invasion of the Venetia, maybe instigated by Taras to keep him away; he started the invasion with a serie of raids against the Venetic coastal settlements, but the sudden reaction of the Veneti nearly destroyed his entire force and only a small part of his army with few ships could escape.

Class divsions were sharp in Spartan society. True Spartan citizens were a minority class, the "Spartiatai"; the bulk of the population of Lakonia, Sparta's province, were helots, serfs who only served the army. There were lower grade citizens at Sparta itself, the "hypomeiones" who had been demoted from full Spartan status, and the "neodamodeis, helots given a low grade citizenship in return for military service. There were also the "perioikoi", the citizens of the other towns of Lakonia.

Looking fantastic. Certainly one of the most extensive mods in development, and the kind of more regional campaign I was hoping to see more of after RTW was released. Keep up the good work!

So if I understand correctly, units such as these spartans will turn up in an army created by a script at a specific date, right? Any chance of such a script being made so they appear when certain cities are threatened or if a certain faction reaches a certain size or weakens significantly?

And will such units also be recruitable as mercenaries?

Like I said, great work!

The foreign invading armies which actually landed in Italy in the timeframe covered by our mod will appear in the game in a certain time by script (they will work as "rebel" sub-factions), like the armies of Cleonimus of Sparta, Alexander of Epirus and Pyrrus. Maybe also an hypothetical invasion of Alexander the Great with his cosmopolite army may be introduced in the game using the same system...

Spartan troops will be also available for Tarentum and Syracusae using something like the "client kingdom" script, which allows to receive periodically or after a specific event a foreign supporting army.

By "rebel" subfactions, do you mean emergents factions and will you use Epistolary Richard's "all factions playable" ??
Would be fun to play Pyrrhus.

GREEK MERCENARIES

Greek Hoplites
https://img277.imageshack.us/img277/7441/oplitigrecivf7.th.jpg (https://img277.imageshack.us/my.php?image=oplitigrecivf7.jpg)

I modelled a separate part for the "linotorax" cuirass; the shape of the new part allows to set the pteruges (the lower fringes) in the actual right position to cover the abdomen and the pelvis, and not over the legs.
https://img277.imageshack.us/img277/2369/linotoraxal3.th.jpg (https://img277.imageshack.us/my.php?image=linotoraxal3.jpg)


Greek Ekdromoi (light) Hoplites
https://img312.imageshack.us/img312/3685/oplitileggerigreciql9.th.jpg (https://img312.imageshack.us/my.php?image=oplitileggerigreciql9.jpg)

I provided also a new part for the "perizoma" (abdominal protection) which is now separate from the tunic and has a more rigid look than the draps of the tunic.
https://img312.imageshack.us/img312/9554/perizomapz1.th.jpg (https://img312.imageshack.us/my.php?image=perizomapz1.jpg)


Greek Peltastai
The shape and the decorations of the shield are in the style of the Thracian pelte wich become very popular among the Greek light troops.
https://img372.imageshack.us/img372/4398/peltastigrecigi1.th.jpg (https://img372.imageshack.us/my.php?image=peltastigrecigi1.jpg)


Rhodian Slingers
I added also a kopis to the equipment of these light missile troops, since I supposed that well payed mercenaries like the Rhodians could afford some effective weapons to defend themselves if attacked in close combat.
https://img247.imageshack.us/img247/7918/frombolierirodiiwi1.th.jpg (https://img247.imageshack.us/my.php?image=frombolierirodiiwi1.jpg)


Cretan Archers
What distinguished the Cretan archer from his common counterpart was the bronze round shield. Shielded archers are depicted but rarely in Greek art, sometimes the shield looks as large as the hoplon, other times just smaller as the pelte. Often these archers have also the helmet, like the Chalcidian one used in our model that I drafted from a vase of the "Altamura painter". Following the hypothesis advanced by N.V. Sekunda I provided black tunics for our Cretans.

Right now the 20 faction slots available are all occuped by the current factions.
The invading armies will belong to normal rebel sub-factions and they'll be not playable.

For the future, we are planning also some other settings of the factions changing one of the two Etruscan factions with an emerging Epirote faction leaded by Pyrros, or a Macedonian one attempting an hypothetical invasion of Italy with the cosmopolite army of Alexander the Great.

Looking great. Your models somehow look more realistic than many mods', in the sense that the clothes and armour look like they're actually being used and aren't too ornate, with more subdued colours. Any plans to improve the battlefield ground textures and vegetation to match this more realistic look? It'd be the finishing touch, I think.

I don't know how many features we'll be albe to introduce in the first beta; however the full cultures/factions conversion is already done and also all the new models and skins for all factions are ready and will be surely present. Some mercenary and regional units need still to be completed, and probably the full range of that kind of units will be completed in a further future step.

08-21-2006, 12:00
...Any plans to improve the battlefield ground textures and vegetation to match this more realistic look? It'd be the finishing touch, I think.

...by now we didn't make any attempt in that direction ...maybe in the future, when the main features of the mod will be completed...

These things seem optional to me... But it would be nice if you include some mini-mods that are already done, such as realistic tree size mod and grass mod by Prometheus...

Anyway, beta version is beta version and all this stuff may wait till the final release I think. ~:)

And please, can you answer these questions:

1) You've made 2 Etruscan factions. Does this mean that they will be allied at the start of the campaign, in the same fashion the roman factions were allied in vanilla RTW? And will they hipothetically be able to begin war with each other?

2) Are you going to make Latin allies for SPQR? They played an important role in roman warfare during the IV and III centuries BC.

Luciano B
08-22-2006, 20:57
...some answers:

1) The second Etruscan faction is intended to be "optional"; maybe in the beta version we'll exchange it with the "Sabelli" faction (representing the "Sabellic League" which included some tribes like the Marsi, Paeligni, Vestini, Marrucini and the Frentani); however we are planning some alternative campaigns, one of them with two or maybe more Etruscan factions allied from the start; since we are using the engine of BI and not of RTW they'll be free to attack each other and not forced to remain allied for a long time like in RTW.

2) It depends upon what you mean with "Latin allies"; if you mean the people living in the other cities of Latium and formerly part of the "Latin League", according to Livy during the "Roman - Latin war" of 340-338 BC they were organized in the same way of the Roman troops (hastati, principes and triarii) so they will not look different from Roman troops. If you mean instead the Italic allies with "Latin laws" (the Italic subdued communities forced into alliance with Rome) they'll be simply represented by the regional units which will be recruitable by the Roman player in a conquered province.

Hi Hister

...let me say that your Italian is good :2thumbsup: ...io sono di Terni, una città dell'Umbria, che si trova al centro della penisola.

...about the addition of further factions, sadly there is a limit of 20 hard-coded faction slots, which currenlty are all occuped. The only possible solution is to provide different campaigns with alternative faction arrangements ...maybe in the future, when once the "main" campaign will be finished. I agree with you that an alternative faction chosen among the Histri or the Liburnii may be a good and interesting addition.

...I need a bit of relax, so I stopped for a day to work on the coding and I worked on a new regional unit reproducing a light spearman of the "Siculi" (Sicels), available in the center and the eastern portion of Sicily.

The reference material for the Sicel warriors is very fragmentary. The archeological evidence suggests a mix of native and Greek items and features. The Chalcidian helmet comes from a Sikel tomb found at Adrano. Greaves and a leather belt with a bronze clasp covered with deocrated bronze plates were common among Sicel warriors. Some bronze statuettes depict belted spearmen with a short torso protection which ends just over the abdomen. The available sources report that the Sicels wore long wool tunics in ochre color, and used leather armour. The decorative motivs in use among the Sicels reflect the influence of the Greek art.

Keep up the good work guys.

Do you think this one will be portable to M2TW? Apparently the only things you cannot do is create new meshes and skins but you can edit current ones, and edit script files.

One nice feature in the building script file, you can change building types - Convert_to ... so King's palaces can convert to people's senate etc .. SWEET!! Also, you can create as many events as you like!!! DOUBLE SWEET!!

Excellent work guys,really! All units look nice, but the most smart,amazing, innovative thing is trying to give a realistic image of the ancient city like Rome- I think it's the only one you've made. I'm tired to see cities in square walls in TW. And I wonder how nice it would look if for example in M2TW the had made a good representation of Constantinople for example.

Let me say that your work is really phantastic and that it should be wonderful to have the occasion of playng this mod!

But is there anybody who knows when it will be probably ready or maybe there is still some downloadable beta?

Wonderful!

I'd love to see this beautiful mod having a hosted mod forum here, however, rather than just having a thread.

Thanks gentlemen.

We are working hard to complete the mod ...but I can't provide any "official" release date... our team is in a "reorganization" process to optimize the remaining work and to find new forces to speed-up the whole thing.

About an eventual dedicated forum-section, I would be glad to have one here in this board...

This mod looks fantastic. After my latest reading around the subject I am really interested in the very early Roman republic and its expansion. It seems this mod will portray the period very accurately and with great looking units. Keep up the good work :2thumbsup:
