Sparta Anonymous Roster Expansion (SARE)

Description
NEW RELAUNCH FOR PATCH 14

SARE, or Sparta Anonymous Roster Expansion, has been a long time on the workshop, but has sat unupdated and relatively unharmed by many patches since around patch 7. The out of date table has been rebuilt, stats rebalanced, unit appearances reworked with added texture work/cuts from other talented modders. The number of faces in Spartan soldiers has been mixed with other greeks, the generals have been reskinned, all in all I've attempted a lot of polishing. This mod, is as it was, inspired heavily by old mods such as Roma Surrectum and Europa Barbarorum, the latter mod especially. I love history and authenticity, and have tried to respect this in making my mods while keeping my reskins/additions as seamlessly meshing as possible with a relatively high level of visual fidelity.

The units added are
Spartan Royal Pikemen, Spartan Royal Veterans, Spartan Thorax Spears, Spartan Thorax Swords, Periokoi Swordsmen, Helot Spearmen.
The vanilla units unlocked are,
Hippeus Lancers, Thessalian Cavalry, Rhodian Slingers, Cretan Archers.


I hope you enjoy the mod, please post any problems you might have in the comments section.

Recommended mods to accompany SARE and my other mods:
Seleucid Roster by Arthalion
Sebidee's Roster Packs
Kaziel's Romans
Persian Factions: Roster Expansion

**Special Patch 14 Notice/Update**
It's been a long time but now that Rome 2 seems to be in a much much more steady place when it comes to patches I feel that I can go about updating all of my mods for stats and balancing with the confidence that the changes will stand a much longer period of time, if not indefinitely. Any plans I'd made for adding to or modifying my packs have been scrapped, but I will go over them all and check my data tables for problems and make necessary changes for balancing. After this is done I will immediately begin combining all of my unit packs into one super pack. This had originally been postponed so that I could finalize work on my changes to ACRE, but since such changes are discontinued I can combine them without worry.
Also, as I stated before in a comment, I consider all of my packs to be 'open source', or what ever you might call it for the sake of RTW2. Any and all modders may make what ever use they please of my work, integrate, modify, or what have you, I do not require recognition or permission. It's enough for me to know that people are having fun with what I've done. The only caveat to this is that some of my mods include work by other modders, to which you will need to provide credit.

Thank you all for following my work, and I hope you've enjoyed my unit packs.
