    Default Numbered and Named Legions for EB 2.1b

    Salvete Romani fans!

    This is a small role-play enhancing mod, adding ancillaries representing legions with lore-friendly names to facilitate tracking of army movements.

    It is an ancient pet project of mine, dating all the way back to early 2009 (EB 1.0 then) adapted now for EB2.1b.

    It is highly un-historical as numbered and named legions came about only in late Republican and early Imperial era. In this minimod however you could have them form the start, with historical description noting when and where each particular name used in the mod appeared in RL.

    Installation:
    Simply extract to your mods\EBII folder.

    Have fun!

    Thanks for this.
    Is this save game compatible and do I need to delete any map.rwm files?
    Regards

    Unfortunately this not savegame compatible, map.rwm deletion is not necessary AFAIK.

    Is there a chance you could update this mod, the numbered legions, for EB 2.3? or does it still work (now with 2.2?)

    This definitely won't work for any recent version, it needs re-doing.
    It began on seven hills - an EB 1.1 Romani AAR with historical house-rules (now ceased)
    Heirs to Lysimachos - an EB 1.1 Epeiros-as-Pergamon AAR with semi-historical houserules (now ceased)
    Philetairos' Gift - a second EB 1.1 Epeiros-as-Pergamon AAR

    Also ancillary spots must be carefully husbanded as you only get eight, and Romani already need to use some for province governorship (and unfortunately if you have two people both at 8, they can't swap Legio and Province ancillaries, but you'd need to bring a third general to hold those two temporarily while swapping).
