The official list of mods to make compatible Para Bellum main mods with Successor Wars, the brand new campaign made by Pontifex, that focuses on the Diadochi Wars, the successors of Alexander the Great who fought for the embers of his empire after his death.
This way you can combine the best of both mods, on one hand the campaign based in this fascinating period not previously covered in the TW series, and on the other use it with a vast list of improvements focused on historical realism and game balance, developed and perfected over the years like more realistic army compositions and number of soldiers in the units for this timeframe, better graphics and effects, AI, population, game and combat mechanics, etc.


The Wars of the Diadochi, a series of conflicts ignited by the death of Alexander the Great, reached a key chapter with the Siege of Salamis (306 BC) on the island of Cyprus, where Demetrius Poliorcetes and Ptolemy I Soter clashed in a fierce rivalry for control over the remnants of his empire.
Meanwhile, to the west, Rome tried to consolidate its power during the Samnite Wars, as the Mediterranean world stood on the brink of transformation, its future shaped by the ambitions of its greatest powers.
