    Default Terrae Expugnandae 4.0

    ============================================

    OVERVIEW OF MOD

    ============================================

    TERRAE EXPUGNANDAE "Lands to Conquer"

    This mod was done to try and make RTW better by improving the gameplay and making it more fun. It does not aim to be
    historically accurate. It just trys to make Rome better, which i think it does and i hope you agree. Hope you have fun
    playing this mod.

    COMPATIBILTY:
    This mod is for RTW 1.5. It may work with 1.3 but it WILL NOT WORK with 1.0, 1.1 or 1.2.

    and unique units for epirus and baktria:baktrian agema and chaeonian guard for eprius

    I think I will be downloading this tonight after work, This looks good, the skins alone, for the Romans make me smile and if it plays as well as XGM, then I'll have a joker like smile:) This looks good.

    I've been playing 3.1 for a bit, and let me just say that it is damn fun. Thank you for putting the time and energy into your mods, I think they are fantastic. There is no way in the world I would be able to do something like that, not without a lot of practice anyway. Thanks for putting it out to the world.
    I have a question about 4.0. If I already have 3.1 installed, do I still need to uninstall and reinstall RTW again, or can I download 4.0 over 3.1? Thank you in advance for your reply.

    You can put 4.0 over 3.1, just avoid the provincial campaign, it won't work.

    Greetings to all! I am a new member and have been playing the TW series for four years. I have greatly enjoyed the mods, forums and the useful information gathered from these threads. I have had a slow Friday, so I decided to finally register.

    Is this mod compatible with BI?
