I landed 9500 elite french soldiers, with a lot of experience and some elite units. I first captured Ceylon as an outpost, and proceded to invade the south of India. To give a real example of the scale in the 1760's I was forced to go back to India because the Moghul and the Maratha confederacy declared war on me after I had previously sold my territories there, and they started to mess with my trade routes. I'll come back on the naval battles later, but still, be careful when you field a lot of boats, you can't make more than one formation (line of ship), otherwise the game will invariably crash (maybe it's just me).
The mod also deals with naval combat, and you can field up to 30 boats at once in a battle (non including reinforcements).
For those unfamilliar with the game, there are 3 major theaters: India, Europe, America and 4 minor naval theaters that are useful for trade (strait of Madagascar, Ivory coast, Brazil coast, Dutch Indies), making Empire unique for its near-global scale.
A full army stack will generally amount to 10 000 soldiers (and that's if you count 8 to 10 artillery units). I've played a campaign with France that took me 62 hours to complete, here's my feedback.ĭarthMod allows you to start a campaign with 40 units stack armies (instead of 20), and those armies are filled with regiments that sometimes include up to 500 units (mostly around 300/350). I didn't like the game at release and didn't really touch it since, and I thought I'd give it a try with DarthMod. Someone PM'd with a suggestion to try Empire Total War with the last DarthMod version (8.0.1). Hello again ! A few days ago I was asking on this subreddit what total war game with mod could challenge me, a hardened veteran of the serie. Think we missed one?

Put that into the file with part 1 so part 1 and part 2 will be in the same folder then run the luancher and install to:Ĭ:/Program Files/Steam/Steam Apps/common/Empire Total WarĬ:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/Steam Apps/common/Empire Total War Then open up the file you just extracted and there should be 1 file in there called:

Website:(You can also download part 1 and 2 from here).
When you click the link you would want to download: *Some Unit Balance costs/stats changes (corrected some old vanilla clone units like the Cuirassiers that were exactly the same for French and for all other nations). The melees should now be much more brutal and good looking. * The AI should attack/defend/make musket lines more effectively. Generally the region trades should be much less. * Dagestan overprotectorship bug should now be toned down significantly or completely fixed. Muskets are now more lethal at close range. * Different mass settings for even more realistic melees. What it includes: (I put down some of the things included there are way more) Hope this Helps!!!.Īs the game it should have been. I have been looking in a couple of discussions realated to the darthmod so this is the installation.
