I am just wondering if you guys have any suggestions regarding good mods for BI. I would like to try one that is historically accurate and is challenging.

Sorry, I'm not too interested in BI mods. I've heard Goth's mod is good though, and RTR's next version is going to be for BI. I think Blue Lotus might be made for BI as well, so that's three great mods (at least I think they're all BI).
I really like Goth's mod. It does not change things too radically from BI - the combat stats, the strategic situation etc - but improves the unit line-ups: there's more variety, more historical and better looking units. It's also very stable and has some tweaks to make it more challenging for some factions (the Vandals and Huns are separated and more likely to quickly descend on the Romans).
Thanks, I thought Rome Total Realism was dead... is it true they are making another version for BI?
Yes, RTR 7.0 will be for BI. There is also RTR Platinum, which is ports RTR 6.0 Gold over to 1.5.
Some released BI mods which have been posted on the Org (in roughly reverse chronological order). There's no such thing as a best mod overall, there's only maybe a best mod for you, so my advice would be to try a few out that catch your interest - use the Mod Enabler (JSGME) to make life easier (link in sig):

If Jump mod is considered to be a full mod, then shouldn't bug-fixer be in the list? ~DQuote:
