Introduction

Greetings fellow Total War Lovers. today, i will present you with my final Mod for Rome total war 2, a mod that i have worked on for 2 months.

this mod adds 10 new Units, which are in a new category called: Hero Unit. their Squad number is 2, with the Hero and his/her companion on their side, and they have extremely higher stats than normal units and each have 2 custom special abilities.

there has been much work put into this mod, i have created Custom unit cards for each unit, completely representing their look in the game, and added custom icons to their custom special abilities which is also true to the Hero's looks and equipment !!!


Unit Details

here is the list of all units, and their faction availability:

• Blood Rider of Ba'al (Carthage, Carthage Colonies, Egypt)
• Iron Rider (Parthia)
• Sword Of Rome (Rome)
• Zoroasterian Grand Magistrate (All Eastern Factions)
• Romulus's Chosen Wolf Warrior (All Italian Factions)
• Scythian Warrior Queen (All Steppe, Amazonian and Scythian Factions + Cimmeria)
• Chief Druid of the Tribes (All Gallic Factions + All Celtic Factions + Galatia)
• Spear Of Ares (All Hellenic Factions)
• Iberian Warlord (All Iberian Factions)
• Wodanaz's Chosen Warchief (All Germanic Factions)
  

These Units are not Available through Normal Military Buildings and in case of Each one you must find the Right building requirement (always at level 4) in order to unlock each Hero unit for that faction.


Historical Accuracy and Research

for those of you who seek to know the Origin of these Units and their Historical Accuracy, i have written an Extensive Historical Description for Each unit, detailing the Exact Origins of each one. but since my Knowledge of European History is limited and mostly from Internet Research, i have tried to use External Sources for my Historical Descriptions, but in Case of Eastern, Scythian and African Units, i have had First Hand Knowledge and Research, and was able to fully state the Cultural and Historical significance and Accuracy of Each one. i hope you give it a read and Enjoy the Hard Work that i put into researching and writing each one.
