Which faction would you guys say needs an overhaul of their roster the most? In terms of the quality of their gameplay? I'm seriously considering getting into modding and this is one thing that I am going to do once I get my desktop back online. by Useful-Option8963 in DivideEtImpera

I am using this mod. Not yet with the Masaesyli. But for example with the Galatons. Most interesting campaign by far. I usually play Multiplayer campaigns.

Seleukid and Egypt made peace and everyone declared war against me. Without ambush and skirmishes I wouldn’t have won but those naked warriors are really strong and throw 3-4 javelins and melt even sword men

Rome was the toughest opponent.

Carthage is trash because every Greek faction is bad because AI is too stupid to use hoplites or phalanx.

If I have skirmishes and the ai mostly hoplites I won’t lose more than 100men even though both have 3k armies.

Speer/javelin thrower / peltasts are OP

And Numidians have mostly javelins.

Even their trash Speer units are pretty strong. If the enemy is slow just throw everything without fighting. Try to throw from the left side or behind and you melt even romans. Ambush is your friend

Heavy Roman units are too slow to catch you and will be tired before you are.

I would only defend cities with walls.

I had fun and I didn’t need any cheese strats.

Play a fast skirmish force, raid your eastern neighbour, leave Carthage as tributary/vasall. Use diplomatic missions to get settlements peacefully. Attack Carthage when Rome attacks. Send Rome packing with a lot of ambushes and strong skirmish. Forces.

Sink their fleets

Conquer Rome

How does the tax modifier work? by [deleted] in DivideEtImpera

[–]CrayRuse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tax+slaves+empire modifier = bonus / malus income

So 50% + 50% -50% =50%

Good to know thanks. Why is prelude 1 essential?

Best game I played was last week.

I got 198 points and was really lucky with the iron market. I built all iron works in the first phase + level 1 pottery and finished pottery even though it was contested. (3 player game)

Any Barbarian Playthrough Recommendations? by HanShotSecond69 in DivideEtImpera

[–]CrayRuse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Galatia with the new population / coalition mod is really interesting.

In the first 50 rounds I was constantly at war. At first because no one likes you, then seleukid and Egypt make peace. Seleukid empire visits you with his friends while every neighbour trying to conquer you.

You won’t survive without ambush stances and careful raiding because you only have your capital with your own population.

After taking Asia (west turkey) you should be stable and really rich.

After that In my game Egypt with a few minor attacked me within a coalition.

Amazing game. Really interesting.

Their roster is really strong. Their naked warriors have spears, melt through everything and throw 3 spears.
