can confirm the mod working in 2022 (custom battle), except the problem mentioned below, where they arent turned into very heavy infantry.

I just tested this mod in custom battle and it works. Except both the First and Eagle Cohorts failed to be turned into Very Heavy from Heavy. I haven't tested it yet in a campaign.

Any news on making it compatible with other DLC campaigns?

Thanks!

Christoph: previous version uploaded here, should still work for you: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1256279795 .

Empire Divided changed enough about the data files (particularly those for individual units) that a lot of mods won't work with that DLC and without, it seems. It's only about a 13-bit difference here but I haven't seen anyone explain what it is, or find a workaround.

Hi,

Since you did the update yetserday it doesn´t work for patch 18 power and politics in grand campaign any more. Please fix it.

Regards Christoph

I'm asking on which base CA get them worse stats than regulars....
Bruce_R  [author] 14 Dec, 2015 @ 5:49pm 
LR: Emperor campaign first cohorts also added now.

C.N.89: In the default game they have significantly worse stats than regular legionaries and cost 25% more. This mod brings them up to at least par.

Thanks Bruce_R, we await to fix that.
Bruce_R  [author] 12 Dec, 2015 @ 1:30pm 
thx LR, will look into that and update

I write it even here:
There's a little problem with the mod: it works only for Grand Campaign and not for Caesar in Gaul and Imperator Augustus in which both First and Eagle Cohort have no change
Old School Internet Warlord 12 Dec, 2015 @ 6:05am 
So the stats of Legionairies and First Cohort should now be the same? Also Legionairy Cohort and Eagle Cohort should be the same, except for 20 more men? In my game they are not. The FC/EC are slightly better. Is this intended?
Deckard Bladerunner 11 Dec, 2015 @ 7:55pm 
right u are, historically speaking that's what it was...
having said that,
I understand the implications.
Bruce_R  [author] 11 Dec, 2015 @ 5:47pm 
agree that would be cool. Even if you grant there were 5 double centuries instead of 6 single ones they should still be 80% bigger. But that would require a cost increase, and Goldsworthy and others who know have said it wasn't all first cohorts, just some. This is the biggest I think you can make them without them costing even more
Deckard Bladerunner 10 Dec, 2015 @ 6:30am 
the 1st cohort is 5 double centuries, 160x5 =800 men and the best legionaries...
Figge-Ferrum 9 Dec, 2015 @ 5:44am 
could you make it twice as big? that would be supercool
Jesus Loves You^_^ 8 Dec, 2015 @ 2:25am 
Bruce_R, they should be a very little under legionaries in stats and very little cheap costs.

It's small and simple, but I like it. Downloaded and +rated.
Bruce_R  [author] 7 Dec, 2015 @ 4:20pm 
Leuname: Agreed, but in the basic game they're worse than regular legionaries in key stats, but cost 30% more. That's a mistake. An in the original RTW they were exactly the same on stats, just 50% bigger. Cheers.

Can you make a mod that has Mongolians in it? With a General like Genghis Khan and such?
Jesus Loves You^_^ 7 Dec, 2015 @ 1:18am 
Too many ''matchings'' for cohorts...cohorts were not an exact legionaries.
