I was wondering what are some of the more popular mods for EB you guys use in case I might also want to install it. Or the more useful, better ones you guys reommend, or do you not use any mods at all??

I don't use any mods at all (Because EB needs no more help to be awesome), but I would suggest:

This is by TK, and includes a couple of units that are in EB 0.8, as well as new Sprites (I think).
Actually, it doesn't: you'll have to install Edyz MapMod, Bonny's Spritepack and Bonny's adaptation of TK's minimod indepently (and in that order) to get it to work.Quote:

another that i like very much with EB, is the DustCloudmod, that changes the default yellow dust to a more brown and realistic dust... the effect is priceless very good=) Skymod1.32 is really good too...
my two sugestions
DustCloud Mod
Skymod 1.32
I suggest you try Prometheus' Campi Fiori too. You can find it in the grass add on thread in the RES GESTAE subforum.
Which is included in EB 0.8 and looking nice. We will though make it an optional feature, as it will slow down older computers.Quote:

Now, how about Prometheus' RES GESTAE ports, cities and diplomats? Did you get permission to use them, or have you something of your own? Or has nothing changed there for 0.8?
Excellent! Three cheers for EB!Quote:

Rome Total Realism: Ancient Empire minimod has navigable rivers with river ports and stuff. That would be nice for EB .8 as well.
i like it too. perhaps EB could implement it, that would be nice!!:balloon2: :juggle2:Quote:

I'm on the same page with Krazilec here. Not too many rivers in the EB map would be navigatable. Nile is the only one I am sure was navigable, and even Nile is navigable only to the first Kataract (I guess it was possible to pull your ships up the Kataract at the flood time, but still, this was seldom done). Other rivers that could be navigable are Danube, Rhine, Thames, maybe Rhône and Seine? Remember that if river is navigable nowadays, it maybe wasn't navigable at all in EB timeframe.Quote:

To clarify, Donau = Danube
I just can't imagine that entire fleets of warships could ever sail in unison, let alone transporting thousends of troops across most European rivers.
Nile was navigable...Historically,greeks send to Egypt a cohort to help a king,(don't remember the name) and we have the description of the fleet to sail through the Nile...
All this in the classic era...
I dont' know if other fleets sail on other rivers....I think that the rivers in this era was only for trade...
Maybe I am wrong...
