What is A total conversion mod?

It states that Europa Barbarorum is a Total Conversion mod, but what exactly does that mean? does it mean that if i download it I won't be able to play the vanilla version of RTW? or if not, what would it do to my copy of RTW Gold?

A total conversion mod is a modification that changes every single (modifiable) aspect of the game. You still will be able to play vanilla RTW even after you've installed Europa Barbarorum.

Oh and welcome to the org BTW.

Welcome to the .Org, and to EB

.

Since this is not really a tech question, I am moving this to the EB main forum.

The actual question is if you would want to play vanilla again at all after you´ve experienced EB ;)

I have nearly not played RTW vanilla for more than 2 years... In fact I can try my old pals: Pharoh's Elite Archers :P

I know I haven't played it in about three years now. No interest in doing so ever again, either.

I own BI, but aside from using the executable for EB, I've never played it. Once EBII appears, I'll buy M2:TW solely for the purpose of EBII, and once again I won't actually play the vanilla game.

I still sometimes enjoy playing elephant footballs with pigs in vanilla, and spamming unbeatable SPARTAAAANNNSSSSS in vanilla. Although my what so called "vanilla" game isn't vanilla anymore (having silly additions and tweaks and such stuff)

You don't even have a look at it? Thats like saying I don't eat sheeps testicles just coz they sound bad. At least I can say for a fact I don't like them coz they taste like balls.
