A world that not only saw the rise of a new nation, but also with that new nation, a new kind of goverment was born. A type had never exist before that would revolutionize the world itself.
Here's what you can expect from The American Revolution Mod:
Overhauled BAI and CAI:
TAR 2.0 will be a fully overhauled AI system, courtesy of the DarthMod Team. TAR 2.0 will be utilizing the latest DM 6.3 AI Enhancements as a base and tweaked for TAR. One of things done was to lower the units size from the normal DM sizes to units most historically accurate for the period that TAR focuses on. A typical Line Infantry Unit will number 220 in TAR 2.0 and all other unit sizes have been adjusted accordingly. In TAR 2.0, you will find Diplomacy that actually works. But when war comes it will be brutal and it will be vicious. You may find victory but you will also taste defeat!
A vast Selection Of Units
We say vast, we mean VAAAAAAST!!! When it comes to units from America's War for Independence, TAR delivers like no other. Literally tons of new America and British Units to face off in those rebellious colonies! All taken form the pages of history with beautiful and historically accurate uniforms by ToonTotalWar, co-creator of TAR. Here's a sneak peek at very small selection of units by ToonTotalWar:
But hey! Why stop there? TAR 2.0 has campaigns that span the whole of the ETW landscape. Why not increase the roster for the other nations? To that end, Toon has gathered all of the greatest extra units out there, from your favorite artists like Danova, Pom, Gary, Geronimo2006 and more...
With a name like "The American Revolution Mod," it's not too hard to guess what the main focus of this mod is all about. But TAR 2.0 will give players more that just that and it will allow them to custom tailor TAR to the way they play.
