The 2022 "Fortis Bellator" (Brave Warrior) Fan Edition presents Rus TW, already known to the mod community, in the format of a separate BI folder. That is, conditionally, the mod does not require a complete reinstallation of the game and can be compatible with projects for Rome1 and Alexander (but not for BI). By the way, the original games can also be safely turned on, the same Alex or Rome1.

The original installation of Rus TW was difficult. Updates, patches, fixes and other things, including addons and submods. To be honest, it's painful. And so, after consulting with my good friend VIR, we decided to simplify the task even more. Of course, quite a few builds of Rus have already been released, but in each of them it was necessary, as they say, to replace the entire game at once. But here - everything is easier. Simply move the original BI folder to another location, and paste the BI folder from the Edition archive instead.

The music package can now be installed separately and any, both from VIR`a with Slavic songs, and my Last Muzic-Pack with cool tracks. To do this, you need to delete music.dat and music.idx in the data / sounds folder. Delete or move to another location. But keep in mind that music packs in this case will work not only with Rus TW, but also with other mods, and with the original.

This version is already served with the existing English language, it lies in the mod's archive not far from the BI folder. If someone is a foreign member of the community, he can safely play in English. This version have english support, and eng-translation you can find in the archive of edition.
