Sep 30, 2008 Singleplayer Map 1 commentVery beta, please extract to your "data\world\maps\battle\custom" folder. Enjoy. NOTE THAT THIS REQUIRES THE GRECO-PERSIAN WARS MOD
IN PROGRESS!
This mod requires Rome Total War v1.5 and it is designed to cover the conflicts between Greek factions and those of Persia between 550BC - 250BC. This mod will allow users to play as Greek and Persian units in Rome Total War. Parthia is now Persia and in conflict with the Greek City States. Alexandrian factions are also modified for better game play (other factions are still available).
** Please Note that most of the units being showcased will be avialable in the upcoming version 0.9 **

Macedonia/Seleucids:
Ptolemy (Egypt):
Levy Phalangists
Pezhetairois (Bronze Shields)
Asthetairois (Gold Shields)
Persia:

Persian Immortals (Artisabara)
Immortals (Fictional, by

New Battles:
Battle of Thermopylae, Marathon and Gaugamela will be included in the next release.
Even though this MOD's timeframe is mixed, it is still intended to be historically accurate. The units, are designed to be as accurate as possible. Much research has been done to ensure all units are properly named and armed. IFor example, the persian Kardakes, which very little is known about is depicted as follows:

It is back to work for me on this mod. Sorry about the long break but i need time off for school reasons. I will be continuing my work on this mod. I have made some minor change so far and i am planning to replace roman faction units now as well. I wanted to thank Rise of Persia team for assisting me on some Persian and Greek units skeletons. I have fixed some bugs, changed Parthia to Persian completely and added historically accurate Persian territories as pictured below.
Coming Changes:
- Parthia now completely Persia
- New campaign map to represent historic western Persia with Greeks
- New factions: Greek cities will be split into Sparta and Athens; Brutii and Scipii factions removed.
- New hoplites for Athenians and Spartans.
- New Cretan archers
- Tweaked some cavalry
- Spartan cavalry
- Every unit in game will have different attributes (attacks, defenses, charges, etc.)
- No more spartan generals, just Spartan Elites and Greek generals
- New flags and banners for Greeks and Macedon's
- Historical battles: Marathon, Gaugamela and Chaeronia, possibly thermopylae
This project has been discontinued untill further notice. Thank you to all of you who supported this mod. Prince of Persia out.

I will be releasing a new release soon which will dramatically improve gameplay, adds new units and modify's campaign map units and settlements for a greco-persian war settings (500BC era). Parthia will be completly converted to Persia with all new units. greek cities get even more different hoplites and seleucids, egypt, pontus and armenia will be removed from the campaign NOT from the game. Rome will play very little role in the campaign. It will be mainly egypt vs persia vs greece. As for gameplay cavalry are a lot more powerful now. Even spartans get cavalry. Unit costs have been accuratelly balanced based on factions. more to come stay tuned...

hey princeofpersia great mod, here are a few things that need tweaking as they dont work ingame, im sorry if people have already pointed these out. when you right click on a unit of either corinthian or athenian hoplites (on the campaign map) where all the information appears, the new decoration on the shield or the new helmet does not appear.
secondly, when u do custom battle, on the Theban sacred band, and i think the corinthians when u scroll ure cursor over them it says "unlocalised text placement" or sommit like that
Finally can i ask u make thermopylae a historical battle? xD tyvm
you should look at the map for the persian invasion mod of rtw ask him how he did it because with that map your mod would be awsome
..
you need to install this mod after you download.
Hey Prince Of Persia, firstly i must say wounderful MOD i extreamly enjoy playing it, but i have one small problem. I can start up RTW as per normal and everythings fine. i can acess the campagine menu, but when im actually playing the campagin and i click 'end turn'or go into a battle RTW closes on me, i can only do custem battles ect. Any ideas on what the problem is? And also could you tell me how to remove the MOD.
Thank you
hey i just downloaded this mod and i don't know how to start it....
i click on Rome total war to start the game but it ends up being the original version...
what do i need to do to play these mods
why has it been canclled?
it has been resumed.
I don't know if this helps with the crashing problem because it just happened to me. But whenever i get done with a battle it shows my home screen for a second and whenever i exit out of the game it says something like rome total war had an error. trying to fix the problem or at least something along those guidelines.
this mod has been canceled
