@phantbat - unfortunately I'm too busy to update all my old mods, but you're more than welcome to use the data from this! Thanks for asking :)

@Ø76923 are you planning on updating this mod. If not could I be allowed to refurbish it?
Ø76923  [author] 22 May, 2016 @ 9:02pm 
haha yeah a simple but annoying problem for some, there should be a link in the description to a second version with nerfed heroes, should be better for ya

Just been using this mod as Sparta, put simply, the units ruin the game for me. I don't think a unit should be twice as powerful as general units. The upkeep cost is far too low, but to be fair they do cost 2k each. The limit is too high to the point where I have an army comprised of female hoplites & italian/greek swordsmen (the two mod units for my faction I assume) and can take on a garrisoned capital with two additional armies as reinforcements no problem...

Should I just enforce a rule on myself whereby I only recruit one hero unit per army or am I missing the point of this mod?

k np lol. darn updates screwing up :P
Ø76923  [author] 9 Nov, 2014 @ 8:21pm 
It appears to be the factions :( I can't say for sure how long it'll be until I can get them working again, but when I do another faction is almost ready to be released anyway.

The good news is that this mod still works on its own :)
Ø76923  [author] 9 Nov, 2014 @ 5:58pm 
Darn! I'll have to dig about and find the issue, patch notes here I come... thanks for the heads up!

Grace i'm getting an internal collision between your Knossos/Cimbri mod and this. Don't exactly know the exact nature of the bug. But since you're Cimbri mod is newer i doubt it has to do with Knossos/Cimbri>
My guess is the linker broke.
I also reloaded all 3 mods and resubbed them to update. same problem
Ø76923  [author] 16 Oct, 2014 @ 10:57pm 
Sounds like a bug. I would wager that it wouldn't happen every time, but I'll test it when I get to recruit em. Thanks for letting me know!
Pope Swagstorm 16 Oct, 2014 @ 12:46pm 
I'm not sure if it's intended but the taskforce unit in my campaign got killed via autoresolve and I can't recrit them again, is it intended or a bug?
Ø76923  [author] 13 Oct, 2014 @ 11:01pm 
Thank you for the boost in morale :)
RogerTodger30 13 Oct, 2014 @ 10:28am

Thanks, not sure why it's like that but it is
Ø76923  [author] 8 Oct, 2014 @ 11:52am 
that's weird, I'll fix
Centurion 8 Oct, 2014 @ 11:39am 
The voice for the walls of sparta is that of roman infantrymen, not spartans.
chubbyninja89 (TNB) 3 Oct, 2014 @ 5:50pm 
Oh well i look forward to seeing it added.
Ø76923  [author] 3 Oct, 2014 @ 5:36pm 
Just keep in mind formed attack might cause them to move about trying to keep 'facing' other units (they face the commander). If it's too much of an issue I'll remove formed attack.
Ø76923  [author] 3 Oct, 2014 @ 5:29pm 
haha yeah I've been meaning to change that, working on a lot :3
chubbyninja89 (TNB) 3 Oct, 2014 @ 5:22pm 
Dude seriously. Why don't the Walls of Sparta not having formation attack? Dude they're freaking Spartans dang it!
Ø76923  [author] 29 Sep, 2014 @ 10:51pm 
Everything has been updated, including a little extra Spartan unit I just made, hope I didn't fuck it up :P

looking at elephants, cavalry and chariots before I call this mod finished. Would appreciate letting me know if a culture-specific unit doesn't show up in one of the recruitment buildings.
Ø76923  [author] 29 Sep, 2014 @ 2:45am 
I've reworked the campaign data now but there's some kind of issue with the mod causing it to crash battles. Once it's fixed I'll double check for quality and it'll be updated. Until then I'm pretty happy with the mod so far ^-^

Probably a spelling error or clashing ID number. Could take any amount of time to find :S

Yea its up to you, i only thougt you can do it soon, cause you have alreday the female romans in campain, i thought then the rest took not as long, but iam no modder, so i dont know realy ;)
Ø76923  [author] 27 Sep, 2014 @ 6:49pm 
Campaign data is really tedious, this is currently a custom battle focused mod sorry dude. Working on it, though. Have to be careful with crashes etc. Plus the /db file is a wonderland, I have other secret things in the works too! ;)
Witcher 27 Sep, 2014 @ 5:32pm 
Mmh cant recruit the hoplites with sparta on barracks level 4 :( ?
Ø76923  [author] 27 Sep, 2014 @ 2:10pm 
Once I'm done with the next lot of units etc I'm going to release a lower-HP version. They tend to wreck things, but they are just as vulnerable to missiles. Most of the foot units can be taken down with cav too, although some have 'expert charge defence'.

Once the lower-hp version comes out this will be more suited to a double-hp mod for unit entities. If you like, use this as a kind of showcase and check out the next one if they have too many hitpoints :)


And finally, I'll be giving some of these units to temples and barracks as garrisons, which should make things more interesting on the campaign map.
Visdagon 27 Sep, 2014 @ 2:02pm 
What are the units' stats like? Id like to have female units but I dont like super unit mods. Are these good stats but not as strong as the faction elites, or are they all wonderwomen?
Ø76923  [author] 27 Sep, 2014 @ 2:29am 
About to start work on updating this mod with campaign and 2-3 new unit data(s).
Witcher 24 Sep, 2014 @ 5:14pm 
the female hoplites on barracks level 4 ? Do the hellenic and forget pontus ;)
Witcher 23 Sep, 2014 @ 2:15pm 
Hey for sure, you dont earn money for that, sad enogh, but honor will be yours, if you figure it out ;)
Ø76923  [author] 23 Sep, 2014 @ 3:08am 
also thanks for your patience!
Ø76923  [author] 23 Sep, 2014 @ 3:08am 
Dw I'll get the campaign side of things up and running soon. Just trying to balance playing and modding games with writing a book ^_^
Witcher 22 Sep, 2014 @ 4:09am 
Ahh ok i see there are actually available in cutsom battles. I am at work now, so i can not look about the bulidings right now, but in enzyklopedia i think its greek, can look tonight, thanks for work it out.
Ø76923  [author] 21 Sep, 2014 @ 6:42pm 
Which buildings do Pontus use btw? Maybe I need to give the Amazons and Greeks some eastern barracks data as well.
Ø76923  [author] 21 Sep, 2014 @ 6:40pm 
Ares himself is a god derived from probably eastern or at least Mycenean/Minoan names! The mod was originally Rome-specific. I also take issue with saying Ares because as a diety Ares is said to be all about 'battle' and not 'war' (Athena fulfilled that role).

Did I mention my star sign is Aries? ;)

Sorry Walkure, the campaign recruitment tables are tricky to work with. The buildings I want to put them in are not all in the original files, so I have to find all the building names and copy them into the mod. It will be fixed in time, currently the Romans and Pontus has all that data :)

And that image you put in my head gave me a little chuckle. I'd rather not think about how you'd get steroids in antiquity, though XD
Witcher 21 Sep, 2014 @ 12:36pm 
Ok Data are not in the ordner where my other mods are, not recruitable with armenia at level 4 barracks looks like something went wrong...
Witcher 21 Sep, 2014 @ 12:13pm 
wich barracks are needed? Actually i can not recruit them with pontus
Witcher 21 Sep, 2014 @ 12:06pm 
Hey i was scraed caus i did not find the daughters of mars but now ifound this! Hope it works for pontus ! Thanks for your work, i try now !
Black Stabbath 21 Sep, 2014 @ 8:25am 
socii extraodinarii on steroids/oestrogen; that made me smile. i can just imagin all these really angry huge men and women shouting at eachother about randomstuff like why they can't fit into there toga they had when they where 16, eating chocolate and crying.
