Download XIIICaesar's Legions of Rome - Radious Ed.

At first, I started updating Frank235's Caesar's Legions to be compatible with Rome II EE. That developed into adding several new features. Then I decided to rework the units themselves which led me to stop using Franky's mod due to the fact I no longer felt comfortable changing so many aspects of someone else's work. This led me to create a new mod from scratch. I have made 15 legions for the Caesar in Gaul (CiG) campaign that are representative of the legions commanded by Gaius Julius Caesar. For the Grand Campaign (GC)/Imperator Augustus (IA) I drew shield designs from Roma Surrectum II, a Rome I mod. I combined the list of legions they made to makeup the original 28 legions used by Octavian. In the Marian era you'll have 28 legions & during the Imperial era you'll have the original 28 legions plus 3 more that RSII used that were created during the Pincipate period. The legions available during the Marian era all upgrade to their Imperial counterparts. Marian units are recruitable upon researching "Cohort Orginization". Imperial units are recruitable upon researching "Professional Soldiery" - this will also enable you to upgrade the Marian units. Also featured is a full AOR system. It works as close as I could get it to the original AOR system used by RSII. I use a mix of amours and such from Kaziel's Romans v4.0 and Vanilla that I have tweaked to my liking. I've also implemented a cheek guard mod too. ***FEATURES*** All the legions from Roma Surrectum II. PLUS Legio XVII, XVIII, and XVIIII from the Battle of Teutoberg Forest. Using armour textures from Kaziel's Romans v4.0 and various vanilla textures, I've tweaked to simulate what I think real legionnaires would've been like. Non of the fresh, crisp, new stuff like you see in Hollywood films but good ole gritty and used armour and textiles for my legions to show that they've seen battle and are battle-hardened. The shield designs I got from RSII have been completely redone from scratch to be high-res and high-def for Rome II. I've added rust and scratchin overlays to them as well to simulate usage as I don't think it practical that the shields every legionnaire used looked brand new with no defects. These legions were always battling and I wanted to mimic that to the effect of my designs. Eagles are no longer only golden but silver and bronze depending on the era your legion is recruited from. Also featuring custom banners unique to each legions with their number and symbol (coming soon). Each standard bearer also has a unique shield pattern ported over from RSII. Even more detailed are the unique naming to each legion that is as true to historic sources as I could find with a unique description about each legions history that dynamically changes each era as the unit is upgraded. I have also created a new set of legions exclusively for use in the Caesar in Gaul campaign. These "Caesarean" legions were the same as the ones commanded by Caesar himself, 'Hail Caesar!' The AOR system is unique as well. It has been ported over from RSII as close as I could get. Even more so, is once you reach the Imperial era, you will se more armour and skin variants that are based on the location of each legion to better simulate the fact that during the Principate period, Rome granted even the provinces citizenship as well as allowed provincial natives to join the legions (coming soon). I've even fixed the cheek guards on Roman helmets to actually close in around the head instead of "floating" beside the cheeks as if untied like in vanilla Rome II. In the GC and IA 28 legions in the GC & IA 15 legion in CiG All GC/IA legions upgradeable Full AOR system in GC/IA In IA Starting techs between all 4 Roman factions rebalanced to match ea. other ***This mod alters the startpos. As such, any startpos mod will break it when loaded above it or first and Legions of Rome will break those mods when loaded above them or first. That includes All-Factions Playable (AFP) mods. ***Just for clarity*** This is not an update of the old version. This a completely new mod made from scratch. Start a new campaign.
