Hello maffers, I was asking if I could use some of your work in a unit compilation I was working on.
It would be uploaded to the workshop and of course I would credit you.

Could you update this please. I love the Odrysian Kingdom and would like to use this, but it is outdated for me. Thanks
Draconus 5 Apr, 2015 @ 4:36pm 
Very nice! This is exactly what I've been looking for. Always felt that the balkan rosters were a little thin.
chsalpha 3 Apr, 2015 @ 6:11am 
Another great unit mod. Fleshes out the lacking rosters of Balkan factions, while not adding too many new units. And again well balanced.
Vahkitauti 20 Mar, 2015 @ 11:43am 
This mod is awesome! I really like the fact that the units are balanced and not op like most other packs.
Obamna 13 Dec, 2014 @ 2:20am 
Mr. Maffers, could you make it so that when you reaserch chainmail as Getae, armoured falx replaces falx warriors?
SublineTimes69 25 Nov, 2014 @ 4:32pm 
can you make a unit pack for african kingdoms?
DAVOS REX 6 Oct, 2014 @ 6:29pm 
Does this mod unlock these factions?
jayful 4 Oct, 2014 @ 8:49pm 
Thank you Maffers!

@Master Shiori: Yes

Is this compatible with the Emperor Edition?
maffers  [author] 16 Sep, 2014 @ 11:21am 
@Scrubby: I'll fix those things shortly. Thanks for the heads up.
maffers  [author] 24 Aug, 2014 @ 11:18am 
@Scrubby: Thanks for the compliments!

I designed the armoured warriors to be similar to the Chosen Swordsmen for the Arverni in that they are viable end game units, but not elite. The thracian nobles have 5 more health, 15 more morale, 16 more melee attack, 19 more charge bonus, and equal armor. The armoured warriors also lack headhunt which the nobles have. If you have the money, nobles are definately better. I might do some testing though and increase their cost if I feel they are too good.
Scrubby 24 Aug, 2014 @ 5:12am 
This unit pack is exactly what I wanted, it adds in just the right amount of units to fully flesh out the faction rosters while maintaining a good "vanilla rome 2" feel.

If you don't mind me suggesting a slight nerf to thracian armoured warriors (30 armour instead of 35, 50 morale instead of 55) and maybe 30 armour for odrysian hoplites too. None of the units seem OP - I just feel like thracian nobles are a little less appealing now compared to thracian armoured warriors. Just my unimportant opinion.

Fantastic work, thank you very much for this excellent unit pack.
maffers  [author] 4 Aug, 2014 @ 8:30pm 
@TriNova: Thanks! My Elite unit pack is less well balanced probably. I created it to give players something late game to spend their money on, and to give each faction a special unique unit, so some of the units are pretty powerful.

I have not listed them in the mod description, but I actually already have naval versions of Illyrian archers and Illyrian swords included in this mod.
TriNova 4 Aug, 2014 @ 6:58pm 
Excellent unit pack! I especially like that unlike other unit packs, this maintains vanilla balance and retains factional strengths and weaknesses without flooding the rosters with too many units. It seems to me that most other unit packs render vanilla units largely redundant by being vastly more powerful than them, whereas yours seems to blend seemlessly into the roster, to the point where I often have difficult picking them out. I consider this in combination with your Elites unit pack to be a necessity for my Ardiaei campaigns.

The only thing I can think of to change would be moving the slave archer to the slave market along with the other slave units. Also, is there any chance of seeing naval versions of any of these units? I was particularly thinking of the slave/Illyrian archers, Illyrian Swords, and Odrysian Royal Peltasts.
KelticKiai90 2 Aug, 2014 @ 4:58am 
Cool! I'll check it out
maffers  [author] 1 Aug, 2014 @ 10:30pm 
@Swordsman90: I added the Arevaci units to my barbarian unit pack.
maffers  [author] 31 Jul, 2014 @ 5:16pm 
@Swordsman90: Thanks! I've already actually made a few units for the Arevaci that I've included in my faction unlock mod, but I haven't made a seperate mod for it yet. I may try to make one with the units from that mod in a while.
KelticKiai90 31 Jul, 2014 @ 6:13am 
Hi Maf, your unit packs are excellent & I've subbed to all. May I ask if you're going to expand the Iberian factions any time soon? Keep up the great work!
maffers  [author] 27 Jul, 2014 @ 9:02pm 
@iftlc: The units in this mod, as well as more units for other factions, are included in my other mod: Maf's Faction Unlock Mod. You can find a link to it at the top of the description for this mod.
iftlc 27 Jul, 2014 @ 8:58pm 
one request please can u do these for the unlock factions please!
maffers  [author] 27 Jul, 2014 @ 5:25pm 
@iftlc: This mod does not unlock factions or use; it just adds units.
iftlc 27 Jul, 2014 @ 11:52am 
do i need all factions mod or just this one
asap
Big_Rhonda 16 Jul, 2014 @ 5:47pm 
okay thanks
maffers  [author] 16 Jul, 2014 @ 4:54pm 
@Big_Al: This mod does not modify Thracian Nobles at all. If you are using any other mods it could be one of those.
Big_Rhonda 16 Jul, 2014 @ 4:00pm 
Hey maffers just wondering if this mod might possibly nerf the Thracian Nobles. I was playing a campaign with Odrysian Kingdom and instead of the 76 melee attack it was in the 50's.
maffers  [author] 15 Jun, 2014 @ 3:48pm 
@PainCake: This should be fixed now.
maffers  [author] 15 Jun, 2014 @ 3:22pm 
@PainCake: I'll see what I can do.
PainCake 15 Jun, 2014 @ 12:43pm 
Hey Maffer, I noticed a visual bug, so to speak, with your Thracian Armoured Warriors. Some of them wear both a greek leg armour and a dacian trouser. This makes them look kinda stupid, any way you can fix this? Also, thanks for your great mods.
Kevin Sorbo 8 Jun, 2014 @ 2:49pm 
Maffers is it possible to make a mod that gives Suebi club units swords instead.
REASON: animations are really dumb with blood pack on.
also great unit pack :)
10xu 5 Jun, 2014 @ 8:33am 
Is this savegame compitable?
Squishy-Law 4 Jun, 2014 @ 7:26pm

groverrj18 3 Jun, 2014 @ 12:51pm

RecklessSteak 31 May, 2014 @ 6:20pm 
fantastic units and very well balanced! makes these factions actually playable now and with great enjoyment :)
DramaBelli 31 May, 2014 @ 6:07pm 
horns up! \m/
maffers  [author] 31 May, 2014 @ 4:13pm 
@DramaBelli: Great! Thanks.
DramaBelli 31 May, 2014 @ 4:12pm 
your mod is now supported by unit pack compatibility project (=no more blank names for non english players using this mod and their native language)
