unit upgrade mod

hello rome 2 players
MOD IS PATCH 15( EMPEROR EDITION) COMPATIBLE AND WORKS WITH EVERY OTHER MOD THAT DOES NOT CHANGE THE TECHNOLOGY TREE

to see the changes, you can click on the update link next to the pictures "change notes ( view )"
for the best, and full effect it is advised to start a brand new campaign

campaigns done: grand campaign AND hannibal at the gates
it can, and will work with augustus and ceasar dlc, but chance is big that you won't have every upgrade as those 2 campaigns use a different(altered) technology tree. have patience

i have made this SIMPLE, yet UNIQUE mod in it's kind to improve campaign play aloooot
what this mod does, is following the roman unit upgrade function( example, hastati become legionnaries etc etc through the retrain option) for every other faction
now both player and a.i(major and minor factions) will unlock new units, or can upgrade the current units they have to the next tier if technology x has been researched, this helps the a.i alot, as even though they don't build the military buildings, they will still get better and better units. tested and confirmed! it saves a lot of money in the end. a basic unit of regular levy spears, will eventually become an elite unit if you take the effort of keeping it, and using it. every unit is useful now, maybe not at the start but take a look at the technology tree and see when the unit becomes it's better version

expect no more levy/militia stacks, now you will fight hoplites or above. pikemen or above. battles will be much harder because you fight better armies.

small problem(will hopefully get a fix) : a.i does not upgrade it's starting units, but every new unit they make is an advanced unit( hoplite instead of militia...pikemen instead of pike levy...and soooo many more)

GRAND CAMPAIGN: DONE
HANNIBAL AT THE GATES: DONE
CEASAR IN GAUL: WORK IN PROGRESS
AUGUSTUS CAMPAIGN: COMMING SOON

***TO DO LIST***

- certain factions like suebi for ceasar in gaul camapign, have a different technology tree then the suebi from grand campaign. so when i'm done with the grand, i'll run through each dlc individual and also add the proper upgrades there. meanwhile this mod will work 100% you simply won't have "every" upgrade.
- rework the garrison forces, as the upgrade options have messed it a bit up. i have to create custom sets, and attach them to the buildings so that when 3 garrison units are upgraded (this happens automatically) you get the 3 upgraded units, and not just 1
- rework the options for general bodyguards, so that there won't be to powerful elite units in the earle stages of the campaign, and the more advanced you are, the more bodyguard options you get

expect an update every few days. if there is a problem, or if you think an unit is available to soon, please inform me.

best results will be when you subscribe to the entire collection to be found here

i hope you enjoy this, drazan
