DarthMod Napoleon
Napoleon: Total War mod | Released Dec 1, 2011
The popular mod series now for Napoleon: Total War!
Play realistic napoleonic battles against a challenging AI.
The gameplay is vastly improved, the arcade feeling of the official game is removed and not only that...
You will witness the full power of the new DarthMod Formations, which make the Battle AI to attack you without hesitations and weak plans.
Join the Dark Side and you will be crushed! Satisfaction -> Guaranteed!
The size of the units is brought to realistic, "Large" levels.
The enhanced melee mechanics, the improved AI
and the realistic physics create for the player a fantastic and challenging experience.
Superb battle effects, exclusively made from the mod's head designer (DARTH VADER)
make you think that you play a real battle!
The effects are fine tuned so that they do not provoke excessive lag
while they show "heavier" than any other effect mod.
husserlTW made, exclusively for DarthMod, campaigns in which you can have up to 40 unit armies.
The included AlbTraum23 UI mod makes the unit cards smaller so to see all of them.
Only before the battle you see these contested unit windows.
The launcher makes sure that you choose the right options before you start your game or disables the mod so that you can play Vanilla.
There are also many more campaigns with minor factions playable so you can re-write history
without the constrains of the official game's scripted campaigns
(The new campaigns are exculsively designed for DarthMod by husserlTW).
Chaos, realism, the smoke of gunpowder and challenge await you!

Version 2.4
- Cannon & musket smoke became the most impressive you have ever seen... I never thought Napoleon engine was capable of these effects!
- More dust from infantry/cavalry movement and with correct color (not white).
- Howitzer impact smoke is now greyish/white and generally the howitzer effects are much more improved.
- Carcass and Quicklime effects and damage improved.
- Musket Muzzle fire effect improved a lot (it is like real ).
- Projectile Damage from muskets and cannons lethality improved.
- Melee mechanics much better.
- Guns/Cannons have all a much more distinct character per type (accuracy/ballistics etc.).
- Morale more crucial (2-3 good volleys crush the morale).
- Less Fatigue Penalties for shooting procedures.
- Improved the projectile trails to be better visually (Try them).
- Improved formation system for a far more effective battle AI, especially in defense.
- CAI should not declare wars so easily.
Launcher additions by husserlTW
* Added Italy and Netherlands campaigns (they replace Kingdom of Italy and Batavia Republic).
* Fixed a bug where emergent campaign file was remaining after disabling emergent campaign.
* Other minor launcher tweaks
* Added a start up log:
Now, there is a log created to help us solve your installation problems
If you have problems with launcher or/and game startup, please copy the log report found in data/DMN/dmn_log.txt in the post along with your question/problem. Since this report may be very long, it would be good to use the "code" tags.

***EDITED 24/4/2012***
A new HotFix is uploaded with these additional changes:
Version 2.4+ HotFix
- BAI finetune to create more proper musketlines.
- Fire by rank reloads now a little faster.
- Howitzer fragments more realistic trajectories.
- CAI less passive from what it has been reported.
- Lag issues that have been reported have been addressed:
Lag is created when you choose Ultra particles (in vanilla too when using ATI cards) or somehow the game preferences get messed.
Now the Darth effects have all the necessary in High Particle settings (no need to use Ultra) and to be sure you can delete the game preferences from the launcher with one click (File->Preferences script->Delete) to set them again with safety inside the game.

I've got a -massive- impact on framerate on the campaign map when using the mod.
Can play on high settings, with all effects below activated in vanilla.
Using a Gainward GTX560Ti GS, Phenom II 965BE and 4GB DDR3@1333Mhz..
So, is it common that the mod decreases performance that much?
Even with deactivated Darth Effects (launcher) there is no increase in fps.
Nevermind. =3
Had to be some temporary issue with my system =3²
Runs great now, no effect in fps at all =D.
Kudos all the way for this mod guy(s).
Thank you for clarifying ;)

Darth Vader είμαι τελειόφοιτος Ιστορικός του Δ.Π.Θ. και σε χαιρετώ και πάνω από όλα σε θαυμάζω.Αν ήταν οι μισοί πολιτικοί μας παραγωγικοί και αποτελεσματικοί όπως εσύ σίγουρα δεν θα είμασταν στο σημερινό χάλι.Μπήκα στο Greece group και κατέθεσα την εξής ιδέα:να κατασκευαστεί,με οδηγό και αρχηγό εσένα, ένα mod για το Napoleon το οποίο να αναφέρεται στο 1821.Εάν συμφωνείς με τη βασική ιδέα μπορώ να σου αποστείλλω και τις λεπτομέρειες.Έχω τη γνώμη πως η κατασκευή ενός mod με αναφορά και κεντρικό θέμα την ελληνική επανάσταση του 1821 είναι το λιγότερο που μπορούμε να προσφέρουμε εμείς οι ''κοινοί θνητοί'' της καθημερινότητας,ενώ ταυτόχρονα θα αποτελέσει και μια παγκόσμια προβολή της πραγματικής αξίας της χώρας.Ας θυμηθούμε ποιοί είμασταν,ζωντανεύοντας το παρελθόν μέσα σε ένα παιχνίδι
Με τιμούν τα σχόλια σου. Σε ευχαριστώ πολύ. Ήδη υπάρχει ένα submod στο οποίο μπορείτε να συνεισφέρετε και ο husserlTW (ο co-developer)είναι ο πλέον κατάλληλος για να μιλήσετε. Είναι αυτό εδώ: Twcenter.net

If you can run the official game then why not? Just lower the unit size to 1X.
Whats the difference between 2X unit size and 1X unit size?
