    If I remember correctly you guys ported the MM map, I've got a friend who is modding an Late Roman mod (IBUR) and he requested for a new map to replace the vanilla BI one.

    You guys don't have to help port MM map to his mod but of course if you guys feel like it the thread of his request is here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...5#post13492845

    Macedon starts in the middle of a civil war.

    This is the historic event message:

    Civil War in Macedonia
    {CIVIL_WAR_IN_MACEDON_BODY} The struggle for the throne of Macedon has thrown the country into turmoil. Three pretenders are fighting for the throne: Antigonos Gonatas of the Antigonids, Ptolemy Keraunos of the Ptolemies, and Antipater Etesias of the Antipatrids. According to the old tradition, the army wants to have a word, too, proclaiming their commander Sosthenes, who has distinguished himself against the Galatian invaders. Finally, some parts of the kingdom are trying to break away, especially the city of Cassandreia ruled by the cruel tyrant Apollodoros and his counselor Calliphon the Sicel.

    At the beginning the Antigonids hold six regions/cities: Macedonia/Pella, Chalcidice/Thessalonice, Thessalia/Larissa, Euboea/Chalcis, Corinthia/Corinth and Pamphylia/Side. The old dynasts Antigonos Monophtalmos and Demetrius Poliorcetes are trapped in Pamphylia and Phrygia. First objectives are Bylazora in Paeonia and Thebes in Boeotia.

    Some more pictures from a Macedonian campaign

    The Ptolemaic governor had been hiding a second army in the light forest south of the town.

    This terrain configuration is typical for the Rome Total History map and there are hundreds of strategic hideouts in the light forests of Greece, Italy, Thrace, Gaul, Germany, Spain, etc.

    The new version Rome Total History 1.5 is out, bringing gorgeous improvements!

    Here is the download link: http://dfiles.eu/files/lnua4l1zg

    And these are the news:

    Adjustments in RTH 1.5:
    - Bug fix regarding missing texture for unit Tocharian Cavalry
    - Corrected missing description for Galatian Horseback
    - Corrected bugs in building trees
    - Minor map changes in Asia, Osroene, Cilicia, Pamphylia and Pisidia (lakes, road Sardes-Side)
    - Improved sea lanes around Crete
    - Important adjustments regarding trade benefits (more land trade, less sea trade)
    _ Improved trade for Massilia, reduced trade for Greece
    - Important adjustments regarding benefits from temples
    - Improved population loyalty in India and Asia in general
    - Reduced frequency of many mercenary units
    - Added rebel leaders in Mantineia, Media and Commagene
    - New forts in Etruria, Asia, Sophene, Osroene and Palmyrene
    - Historically matching temples in most regions
    - Added more specific temple gods (Hekate, Atargatis, Hadad, Zeus Stratios, Pontus, Men, Eros, Enyo, Ma, Bel, Reitia, Bonchar, Varsutina, Vertumnus, and more)
    - Added more Egyptian Gods (Ra, Ptah, Hathor, Bastet, Sobek, Hermanubis, Maat, Thoth,, Seshak, Khnum, Taweret, Apophis)
    - Learning programme for Egyptian gods (graphics from Wikipedia, users Jeff Dahl, Gunkarta, a.o.)
    - Added building Statue (Leonidas, Themistokles, Philipp II, Alexander, Seleucus, Ptolemy, Hanno, Brutus, Camillus, Buddha)
    - Added more specific buildings (Pergamon Altar, Apadana Palace, Temple of Planets, Statue of Nike, Slave Market, Aetolian League, Pentapolis, etc.)
    - Character changes (Scythia: trader genghis; Eastern Kingdoms: fortified napoleon; Germans: bureaucrat mao; Rebels: fortified smith)
    - Added more historic events
    - Hundreds of minor corrections and improvements

    The biggest work has been done regarding the temples. If you start a new game you will now find a specific temple in almost every region and town. In the civilized areas this will usually be the definite building as in 280 BC, and in the most prominent cities you 0even have more than one or two. In the developing areas you'll find a shrine that later became a famous temple, and in the Barbarian regions you'll see a stone to a god worshipped by the specific tribe in question. Often the description of these buildings will add interesting details to the history of the region/town/tribe. Thus your military campaign will also be a kind of sightseeing tour exploring many wonders and curiosities of the ancient world.
    Specific attention has been dedicated to the Egyptian pantheon which is now quite complete including the most prominent animal gods. There are pictures showing the attributes of each deity so that the Egyptian player will automatically learn the entire pantheon and a lot about their mythology.

    - Added school buildings for Barbarians (Folklore Circle, Greek Teacher)
    - Added new construction pictures
    - Added more historic events

    NEW BATTLE ENVIRONMENTS:

    The most evident improvement over previous versions is the inclusion of battle environments from Roma Surrectum. The new realistic battle fields have a much more intriguing impact, producing a quite different game experience in the forests of northern Europe, as well as in the Mediterranean scrub and the Eastern deserts. A complete new environment has been added in the Eastern Mediterranean with Lebanese cedars and similar trees.

    IMPROVED STRATEGY MAP:

    The new environments have also a strong impact on the look of the strategy map which is improved in many parts, especially with the animated sea, more articulated snowy areas, and different vegetation.

    LOADING SCREENS:

    80 loading screens have been added which will be displayed each time you start or exit a battle. These high quality pictures are drawn from historic paintings (David, Maccari, Alma-Tadema, Gerome, Foltz, Millmore) and other sources.

    NEW ANCILLARIES:

    The biggest work was done on the ancillary system. While the previous installments were a bit underwhelming under this aspect, the situation is now completely changed, as the ancillary system has been completely revised. The number of ancillaries has been more than doubled, with 430 new figures, each with its individual high quality thumbnail. There are many specific priests or magistrates as well as unique historic figures. Ancillary triggers have been completely overhauled and adapted to the wide range of new buildings available.

    Lots of new triggers were added, and in particular there are many ancillaries that can be acquired by conquest, including a number of Diadoch princesses and noblewomen. If you conquer a specific town, these ancillaries will join your party as a prize for the conqueror. For example, when you conquer the city of Alexandria not too early in the game, there is a good chance that you capture Cleopatra VII. Before she becomes available it might be Berenice II or Arsinoe. In a similar manner, in Antioch Laodice or Stratonice are waiting. In Rome you might capture Julia, the daughter of Caesar, in Utica Sophonisba, in Epirus Olympias, in Pergamon Apollonis. In Aetolia the Strategos of the Aetolian League might join your party, in Thessaly the Tagus, in Cappadocia you might capture the king of that country, in Scodra queen Teuta, and in Massilia a member of the mighty Protiades family. In Syracuse you can save Damarata and Harmonia from their cruel fate.

    Half of the cities in the game hold such a specific surprise, but of course they are not always available. However margins have been chosen quite large. So you will not be able to capture queen Teuta only in the 20 years of her actual reign, but at least a decade earlier and several decades afterwards.

    To maximise your chance to capture these historic figures you should make sure that the leader of your attack has at least three or four command points, because that is often a condition.

    Many historic events and figures are cross-referenced. That means, when you read the news about the Jewish tax collector Joseph, he is most likely bound to pop up in Jerusalem not much later. Or when you learn the story of the physician Dexicrates from Messana, he is already hiding somewhere, waiting to join your army as soon as you make it possible.

    More similar surprises are waiting around the map, each one referring to a specific historic event or data, except two or three fun entries, namely a huge Cimmerian and a strong Gallic warrior with a big nose.
    Those beautiful ladies and courageous warriors will certainly add to your imagination, since all the thumbnails have been newly created with high quality standards. Many of the ladies have been taken from historical paintings by Godward, Alma Tadema and other famous painters.

    PERMANENT FORTS:

    Another important improvement is the introduction of permanent forts. For the moment some 75 forts have been made permanent to represent minor towns on the map. This has been done by placing a residential spy inside the fort. These spies have zero movement points, and as a result the fort will exist as long as they live. With an average life expectation of 70 years, and most spies starting at the age of 18, the forts should be around for at least 50 years. In this time there is a certain chance that other spies are turned into sleepers, so that the place might even last longer. Usually the spies are not visible, but you can ask one of your assassins to check the fort and he will will tell you if there's an agent inside. The assassin will also tell you the name of the fort, since the resident usually carries the surname of his town (for example "Oroissus of Cydonia"). To destroy a permanent fort you need to kill the spy, and this is another reason why assassins have become more important in the game.

    WOUNDED GENERAL:

    Due to the introduction of a new character trait it is possible that your general remains wounded after a battle or an assassination attempt. In this case you better send him to a settlement with a hospital or a temple of healing, because otherwise he risks to remain permanently invalidated, resulting in reduced movement points.

    CRUSH:

    Sometimes when you enter a fort it may happen that your general falls deeply in love with a local beauty and looses all his military initiative. This has been done to create even more permanent forts during gameplay, as computer generals remain stuck inside the fort (while the human player can use some trick to liberate his general from the spell).

    If this happens to one of your generals and he remains blocked with zero movement points, you can move another general to the same spot and transfer the love object. The new general will now be able to abduct the lady to wherever he pleases. His comrade will mourn the loss for the rest of the turn, but the next turn he will recover his usual movement points. However now the second general will have fallen in love with the lady. Therefore you should choose well where to abduct her, because your general is bound to stay with her until he is liberated himself. The best will be to assign the lady to an old governor who wants to rest his bones in a comfortable city without moving anymore. Married men, leaders with more than four command points and men with certain character traits ("girl crazy", "perverted" and similar) are excluded from this experience.

    FORCE DIPLOMACY:

    By popular demand, Force Diplomacy is now available.
    How to use Force Diplomacy in a campaign:
    1. Press Esc
    2. Go to Game Options
    3. Tick the box for "Reset Advisor" and continue back to the campaign map.
    4. Engage the diplomacy window with another faction via a diplomat.
    5. Click the "?" in the top right hand corner of the diplomacy window
    6. The advisor will appear. Click "show me" and then click the advisor's face to make it go away.
    7. Select the offers/demands as required.
    8. Offer these to the AI faction. It will accept them.
    NOTES:
    - This process must be repeated each time that you would like to force your diplomatic actions on the AI.
    - The AI cannot agree to demands that it physically cannot carry out (e.g. it cannot give you money it does not have).

    -----------------------------------------------------------------

    The next days I will post a few screenshots to illustrate the huge improvements.

    I start with a battle environment in Italy:

    This is Sinus Urias, a lake on the northern coast of the Garganus promontory in Apulia, a really suggestive battleground. One shot is from the east and one from the west. The hillside is Mount Garganus.

    This is the city of Byzantium in Rome Total History (RTH 1.6). The city has five temples (Aphrodite, Poseidon, Artemis, Apollon, Demeter) and a shrine to Hekate.

    Byzantium is not the first city of Greece, but all these temples were already in existence by 280 BC, except maybe the cult of Hekate which appeared shortly after, when the goddess "saved" the city from a siege. To represent this historic fact, when the city is under siege, a priestess of Hekate will appear (as ancillary), with a bonus on siege defence.

    Similar research has been done for many other cities which are all represented with their exact temples and priests, as well as civic bujildings and magistrates.

    As it appears, players of Rome II will never get the slightest chance to experience similar depth of gameplay!
