doesn't work anymore 2023

@Stormcrow You completely failed to mention the actual killer of Carrhae, the Parthian cataphracts. The horse archers did fine work, but only some historians claim that their bows were so powerful, and personally speaking, they'd have to be way too close for comfort for that kind of power consistently, even a horse wouldn't get them out of that proximity without a great many archers having died, no the real problem at Carrhae was the commander's lack of confidence to such a degree he failed to act, preferring to stay locked in a hollow square, with the infantry formed up into a testudo, which made them insanely easy to hit with a mass of horse and rider in full armor. Many more men died on the lance that day then by arrow, make no mistake on that.

Is this compatible with DeI?

Hello Gorgulla, I'm working on a project where I would like to include this mod. Please let me know when you have the time for a chat about this.

This 100% is no longer working for me, im using the ancient combat mod as well but there is no change when using this mod compared to vanilla

And most of the killing took place after the battle as the Roman's tried to flee, in fact, in numerous instances the partians let pockets of Roman's escape temporarily, just to run them down once they got far enough away from the safety of the formation, as it became easier to kill them that way. That's exactly how they lost their standards that day.
