OT- What are the best M2TW mods?

**oudysseos** · 08-19-2007, 20:17

I just got M2TW as a gift and want to know what the EB community think of the various mods out there. Should I try Deus lo Vult? Sicilian Vespers? Pro Deo et Rege? Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks.

This section is EB for Rome Total War. Try the EB2 or the MTW2 section...

Yah thanks I thought that there would be some overlap of interest, also this is one of the most active forums, and is full of people likely to have valuable opinions. And of course I really want an EB level of quality, so where best to ask?

Edward- thanks. I'll have a look.

I've played:
Lands to Conquer - Kind of like vanilla plus.
Road to Jerusalem - Pretty good, but their stat/cost system needs balancing. I like their map.
Stainless Steel - Didn't play it too long. Seemed like another vanilla plus.
Rise of Kings - Pretty good, but the AI turns took too long for my computer to handle.

I really can't wait til some of the total converstion type mods start coming out with their first releases.

^The broken crescent is doing that . There is also a Persian wars -Pelopponesian era mod in the works too .

Yeah, Broken Crescent looks good. That is one of the few that looking forward to.

The Long Road is the best one out there IMO. Tornnight is the modder and hes just awesome with his community, taking feedback, responding to bugs and integrating their ideas and such. He's working on a big overhaul now which would incorporate various elements of other popular mods such as BBB and has many ideas he has implemented and will be implementing that are of his own design.
