This mod component adds about forty new units to the game, many of them fleshing out base unit lines, others forming new lines altogether:

-Herbalist/Healer/Medic: Ancient and Classical precursors to the modern medic unit.
-Prefect/Captain/Lieutenant: support units that increase combat strength and experience gain of surrounding units.
-Stablemaster/Wagon Train/Convoy: support units that increase movement speed of surrounding, non-cavalry units.
-Escort/Bodyguard: land combat units that share movement with other units in formation, and are much stronger on defense than offense.
-Balinger/Galleon/Transport: sea units that share movement with other units in formation, and are much stronger on defense than offense.
-Horse Archer/Grenadier/Sapper: new promotion line - Tech Ranged - units with 1 range and special abilities.
-Auxiliary Archer/Musket/Gunner: support units with a ranged attack, but no melee combat strength.
-Additions to base unit lines like Bayonet, Howitzer, Trebuchet, Liburna, and more.
-A whole new final tier of units available at the last few techs in the game (including future tech) with Railgun, Drone Cruiser, Hover Tank, etc.
-A few new unique units like the Japanese Zero and Sumerian Warmobile.


FAQ

1. Does this mod require any DLC?

No, this mod does not require any DLC.

2. Is this mod compatible with other mods?

Yes, it should be, generally speaking. Of course there are always exceptions. Notably, this mod should not be run alongside my larger modpacks, which already contain it!

3. Why aren't there any new art assets?

Mainly because I am not an artist! I am a coder and designer, and believe me, doing that fills up my time just fine without me trying my hand at textures and 3D models. I do however work with a few very talented artists, who are slowly making their way through a bunch of different projects. If this one hasn't gotten attention it's probably because it's just not as high a priority as other projects on the agenda. Rest assured, it is eventually intended that all new assets will have correspondingly new art.

4. Can I re-use part or all of this component in my mod?

Only with my permission. Send me a private message and we'll talk.
