Hello Barbarossa ,, Would any of Darth's or Sinuhets formations be compatible with your mod ? cheers ... DTS

Hi there Dimitrios, provided these mods do not affect the export_descr_units.txt file, they should be compatible.

You REALLY need to host this file somewhere else. That website is confusing and stupid. It takes forever to get a file and you don't know you where to go until you get the message box like a minute later.

I'm getting an amazing download speed of 2KB/s. I'll have the whole 5.5MB in 1 and a half hours! Woooo!

I wonder what the other 8MB of my internet connection is doing.....

This looks like a wicked mod. Wonder if it runs ok with the Mercenary X-pak mod... Guess i'll find out hehe.

Yah that hosting site is very slow. Taking me more than 10 minutes to download that 5.5mb of the first link. Its not my connection as i just downloaded more than 20mb of an Oblivion mod at a much faster rate.

Anyhow, great work on this mod, Much appreciated for the time and effort that has been put into this :)

nope it doesn't; units files have been tweaked to include Poeni archers and the like, so both mods do'nt stack
I'm currently trying to port some mercs into my own-modded VBM, manually that is.

Good to see you again Barb!
Looks like a handy little mod, though i think for the most part, the ideas of it appear to be pretty similar to RTG.
Still, when i get the time, ill be aure to give it a go!

Works great, i'm playing as Carthage and the game is more enjoyable and competitive already :)

Hello Barbarossa,

Thank you for you efforts in this mods, but seem like I'm having problems trying to download it from that site. After the URL had been generated for me to click on, all it does is to bring me back to the main page of the site and ask me for the ID of the file again. Any help here? Tried disable pop-up blockers (using Opera, but also tried IE6) but still the same problem.

Or is it possible to upload it to some other places? Thanks.

(Been browsing the forums for quite some time but to think I actually registered as member to post this reply.. haha)

I am sorry that the hosting service has lapsed. I am currently working on a new package of mods which I hope to release in the next few weeks, to include:
* New, updated version of Vanilla Balance Mod
* Two optional ways of playing with a unified Rome
* New, updated version of VBM BI Extension
* My mod for Alexander
Parts 1,2 and 3 are near complete and part 4 is undergoing work.

Let me know if you are really eager to play VBM immediately or if you can wait for the "gold collection". If you really want the old version now I can try and find somewhere to upload it again.

You can host it here.

Hi barbarossa

thanks for your quick reply, seeing as i am messing with my own game at the moment trying to create a new campaign using the old one as a template, No i dont mean a mod I do mean a whole campaign as you could in the old MTW but thats off topic, so in short yes i am happy to wait for the gold.... Its sounds very promising :-) cant wait
