Diadochi Remastered

Game crushed while I played for egypt, during enemy turn.

Having a small problem with my campaign. Reached turn 50 with my Antigonus campaign the the game just keeps crashing. Really have no idea why. I only had to beat the Selecuids too :(.

Is there a possibility of making the map more detailed, with more cities but no other provinces?

this mod doesnt work with actual version

Such a great mod. Very simple, but so stylish

2. I think every faction could use about 3-4 more units and I tend to like historically authentic names like EBI and RIS although thats more a personal preference. I think the mod does a pretty good job of making very similar armies feel somewhat unique but unit rosters right now are a little limited and adding a bit more flavor here would help the mod (END)

In the mean-time I would try and solve the worst consquences of brain-dead AI by doing some quick fixes. First, reduce the morale shock of the enemy general dying since enemy generals tend to get themselves killed. Second, raise the morale of all units by about 2 or maybe 1 for the player and 2 for the AI to prevent quite as many mass routs to give the enemy some grace from making bad decisions. I dislike very hard battles for transforming levy pikemen into royal pikeman and making all of my units rout at first contact but find that the enemys morale on hard is far too low and easy to mass rout. I would also modestly buff archers which due to fast battles are usually indecisive and this would force players to take the threat a bit more seriously although i think thats optional. Personally i would raise the defense of units a bit but thats more battle time preference, I think raising morale is essential

Battles

1. The campaign feels pretty good here but the battles are a bit off. I prefer slow battles to fast battles in general but not everyone shares that preference however the battles here tend to be faster and easier than vanilla which is bad IMO. This mostly comes down to the relatively atrocious Battle AI from vanilla that while reasonably incompetent when utilizing skirmishers and sword infantry is incredibly incompetent at phalanx warfare and utilizing calvary which this mod focus on. Fixing Battle AI is going to require a lot of work and i've won many battles because of stuff like Enemy general charges into Levy Phalanx head on, Enemy can't hold a phalanx formation when assaulting, enemy does something incomprehensivly dumb like sending units in a column against my troops. Thats going to require a ton of battle testing and experienced development to fix.

3. I like the idea of an emergent Rome acting as a Horde/Endgame crisis. Usually campaigns get stale when you hit about 40 settlements because the economic juggernaut becomes unstoppable utilizing a script for 5 full stack roman armies to arrive with tons of cash to slow down the juggernaut would be very fun. Brennus Horde would be a fun mid-game crisis as well.

2. In this vein of roleplaying and embracing the Diadochi setting adding more flavor text like EB1 in terms of messages, character bios etc and better yet (although more ambitously) building a deeper role-play game system for your generals akin to some of the big ambitious mods like EB1 and RIS would really make the campaign from something good to something essential. More flavor I think should be easy to implement while getting a good role-play system will be harder but this would elevate the mod
