Summary
This mod is roughly based on the timeframe of the Greco-Persian wars; displaying Persia at her might, while the greek cities are seperated and weary of one-another, plus a few "outer" factions, like Indian tribes and the Gerrhean Kingdom, to poke at Persia from all sides. This isn't aiming for total historical accuracy, with elements that we put together to make for more interesting for gameplay. The Greek factions will have relatively small troop rosters at the start of the game, but as they conquer more settlements and explore new areas they will acquire the capability to recruit more units. A new campaign map completely redesigned by comrade_general covers from Greece to the brooding jungles of India and from Egypt to the steppe of Scythia. The size of the map has been increased to the maximum to allow ample room in Greece for cities and to provide a more unique gaming experience. The mod features 16 playable factions for the campaign and 17 total available for custom battles.
Factions are as follows:

The BETA is as far as I have been able to take this mod. The most imcomplete part is of course the absence of unit info cards, and to complete these would require someone with 3ds max who would be willing to spend several hours making them.
Rome: Total War and its mods have lost a lot of popularity in place of the newer games, which has made it practically impossible to find this kind of help.
I greatly appreciate everyone who has taken an interest in the mod!
Thank you all!

hey I have the BETA version of it but i was wandering if there was any extra downloads for it for the unit cards oh and keep up the good work on this mod. :D
How long until the actual Persian Invasion comes out not the BETA one i just downloaded Persian Invasion BETA and each time i try to run the game it says "Persian invasion has stopped working" i know its a BETA but still....
I have rtw gold edition, plus alexander, plus i also have the Europa Barbarium(advise you to get) mod as well. I dont seem to be able to load a saved game. tried load game, continue campagine, and starting a new game and loading from there, but still no joy, just shuts down and goes back to windows. Also did it on a custom battle, but only when i had set-up my army and pressed start battle.
Like the mod, love the greek warfare. Much more poetic than grinding, crushing mauling roman legions. Any ideas on creating historic battles? Plenty in the pelopennisian war, and the persian war. A totally impossible battle of thermopyli would be nice. Survive for more than 5 mins while 250'00 persians attack you all at once.
Keep up the good work!
I got this mod and before I started a battle I looked over all the unit
types and factions then when I started a battle the screen went black
and a box popped up and said Persian invasion has stopped working do any
of you have answers? Thanks
Guys this game is epic, i have played almost every mod for this game wether its for the greeks or not and this is by far the best. You have my congratulations and alot respect and i hope you guys keep working on it.
While im here,wenether i go to war against athens as sparta my game just closes no reson (as far as i know) and no error report, any ideas??
Wow, I am flattered that you think so highly of it. 8-D
Unfortunately there hasn't been any 'guys' for awhile. I worked solo on this mod for a long time, but I will keep trying to find someone to help me finish it.
Follow this procedure if you haven't done so: Forums.totalwar.org I'm not sure if that will fix your problem.
Its a beta. It has problems. Ive learned what crashes it and avoid those things like the plague. Theres a persian General that crashes me if i fight him xD so my armies always avoid him. Its quite funny. Hes in the middle of my land with no way out, and yet i cant kill him.
What general might this be?
Hello, I'm not sure what to do about the building browser crashes, but here are instructions for a quickfix for the greco-persian campaign: Twcenter.net
yea I uninstalled it RTW to make sure it was vanilla, then I installed the game and also the quick fix thing and followed instructions it just wont work for me right now :/, I know it's a beta tho :P, i'll try a later version once it's released. keep up the good work! I really like this mod despite the fact I can hardly play it
