    Default HAIL New Members! (Introduction) v.IV

    Welcome to the Org new members!

    Use this thread to introduce yourself to the rest of our membership (and check out how your avatar & sig look).

    Who are you?

    For those interested, here is the link to the v.III thread:
    https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=57672

I promise that once you download a modification, you will never return to "Vanilla" (original) Rome Total War. Modifications are free, very safe, easy to download or remove, and encouraged by the developers of RTW.

    Rome Total Realism is a current favorite, and Europa Barbarorum is expected to be one of the most comprehensive total conversion modifications ever seen. A Beta version of EB for public testing is now available. www.Europabarbarorum.com

    There are also many others to choose from, each uniquely able to enhance your RTW experience!


    Welcome once again!
    More mods can be found here in the org, or in other sites such as Total War Center and the Rome Total Realism forums. I most definitely recommend installing a mod, as they greatly enhance gameplay and provide you with a fresh experience every time.

    Well the other thread was going relatively fast compared to the second one, so what was your motive for making another one precisely ?

    Other than that, welcome to the Org. Tiberius

    Welcome all

    Iron Monkey: hell yeah, might as well get as much out of the game as you can . To date, I've DL'ed RTR Gold, RTR Platinum, EB v 0.74 and the beta of Chiv TW. Does bugfixer count as a mod too btw?

    Vidar: and I'm sure you will contribute.

    RTR has lots of provinces, and introduces the Area of Recruitment, making it harder to blitz the whole map. There are lots of minimods though, so one person's RTR can be very different from another's.

    is it like EB with lots of scripting? you know in winter you get a penalty. if you stay out of your home territory you have to start rationing food which gives a penalty. then theres special things like recovering Alexander's body. (which sounds so cool!)

    Well all newbies

    RTR is awesome, so many little mods....

    I have installed

    - Latinvoice mod (5MB)
    - Music mod (203MB)
    - Metro_Navalmod (5MB)

    and the best one of all, a little mod that makes it 4 moves per year, so you get Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.

    It also starts in 280BC so you can play against Pyrrhus of Epirus.
    It is very hard to explain how much better than vanila this mod is. If you also use proper roman size legions/ armies and follow the concept laid down by the dev team its very enjoyable.

    Yes, senator Decivs Laevinivs I know !

    Just seems like my exams made me miss about half of game thus far, plus a couple of reigns, I daresay. Reading up on everything that has been said is quite a job, especially since the threads are so active !

    But thanks for the reminder, I will be back

    IIRC, in Platinum/Gold there isn't much scripting in comparison to EB (you don't need to activate any scripts when booting up a game). However from what I read, 7.0 will contain alot of scripting.

    I'm guessing enough to feed Mithrandir+Camels for a whole year. Perhaps add in some beer to that.
