Love this mod really has opened the door for me to enjoy Empire, even more than the new titles. Thank you so much to the modders.
Is there any way to make the spacing between the whole 200 man units shorter so that the whole line of the army has no gaps.
Legitimately one of the worst things I've ever downloaded. What the **** is 'cohesion'? Why is cavalry useless now? Why did you use A.I. art if you can't even bother to fix it in post? Why do 200 men with rifles struggle to hit someone from a group of 200 natives when they're standing five feet from each other? Why are there so many typos? Why is there so much bloat? Why, why, why? Playing vanilla is actually preferable.
I love what this mod is striving to accomplish, but have to agree with other reviewers in that there are WAY too many units. It feels as though they crammed as many units in as they could just for the sake of having a ton of units. Many even have the exact same name and stats... I would much prefer a more refined roster of well-thought-out units that are carefully selected and crafted to add to the game's historical authenticity.
Speaking of authenticity, the AI-generated loading screens are AWFUL. for instance, just look at the image used as the background of this ModDB page. Notice their hair showing through the top of their tricorn hats??? Just off-putting and uncanny. I would much rather see contemporary 18th-early19th century paintings used as loading screens.
Otherwise, this is a fantastic mod and I give it a solid 8 out of 10 in its current state.
Great mod overall especially the 4.0 release
Only downside imo is the clutter which can get really annoying but ther than that one of the best empire mods right now
A truly phenomenal mod amazing work has been put into this mod I can't wait to experience everything it has to offer!
great mod, very improved gameplay
I played the Mughal Empire. Simply excellent.
Needs some polish but it is beta.
The best mod for ETW. Yes there are some bugs and problems. But the author cares and fixes whats possible. Great job buddy!
The mod-makers move in the right direction.AI and more events,features-is all we lack in Empire:Total War to have the best experience.
