I would definitely check out the Extended Greek Mod(XGM) if I was you. Check it out in the RTW Hosted Mods Forum right here.
Try this one out.
This should help.
BTW... you're welcome.:)
hey im new here, i was wondering whats the most popular mod? also, which one is trying to be historically accurate? except europa barbarorum, i cant play that one on my pc :)
also i like playing as rome, greek and carthage so those three factions are extremely important
I have Rome and BI.
Right now which is better, The fourth age or LOTR-TW?
Or some other one that I haven't heard of?
Thanks
Rome:Total Realism for, well realism, RS for Romans and XGM for Greeks and Carthage. Links in my sig.
LOTR-TW is only for A:TW so FATW is what your looking for.
SPQR For the real rome challenge.
EB for reaslism
Yep,FA:TW would be the best choice for an RTW:LOTR mod :).
FATW covers only men; LOTR-TW looks better but it crashes very often :(

The Fourth Age is definatly what you are looking for.
If you want to try out FATW you'll need FATW - The New Shadow v2.0b (here), the v2.5 patch (here), plus the music pack which can be found in the same thread with 2.0b (it is optional, but we highly recommend it). The mod is also entirely modfoldered, so it won't interfere with your copy of vanilla, or other modfoldered mods.
Also check out our sub-forum here at TWC.
thanx both of u :)
It depends on what you want. Do you wish to play in the films, which is accurately depicted by LOTR-TW with a lot of different races and heroes.
Or do you wish to play in the universe of the books with those races of men.
FATW has a lot of human units with options for more diverse men, it draws more on the books and is more in tone with the Tolkien universe.
It really depends on what you want.
You can buy Alexander:TW and play with both, LOTR is based in the end of the third age, FATW is based in the fourth age, so you can start with LOTR and continue with FATW.
FATW is in a more advanced stage of development so it's more stable and complete.
In LOTR you have the majority of the characters present in the movies (Aragorn, Gandalf, Galadriel, Frodo, Sauron Saruman,...) and you can play with orcs, goblins, men, elves and dwarves.
i decided to play rome total war again..after 1 year and a half of non-playing it...
since the rome total war mods were updated majorly..i can't decide wich one to play...
here's what i want in a mod:
-new factions
-new units (lots and lots)
-be realistic, not fantasy
-more regions
-new map
-new features
any suggestion that fits in this ??
thanks
try europa barbarorum
ok i'll try...
but can any one make me a very short summary of rome total realism ??
it looks cool
RTR is focused on realism to a lesser extent than EB, but without EB's excessive scripting, which really slows down the game. RTR also heavily slows down battles and the campaign for more realistic kill rates and conquering speed. The idea is to more accurately simulate how empires grew in real life. Personally, my computer can't handle EB and I hated RTR. The battles were just way to slow for me after playing a couple years of vanilla. So if you like vanilla, you might be better off trying a slightly less radical approach. I play Extended Greek Mod, which is a great all-round mod, but I would definitely try out EB and RTR too see if it suits you.
Other mods to try are: Roma Surrectum, XGM, SPQR, and maybe Fourth Age total war if you are a LOTR fan.
All of these seem to fit you're needs (in your first post), although if you want to try SPQR, it is 0 turn, so don't play it if you don't like 0 turn recruitment.
I love SPQR total war, it brings warfare to an epic level by recruiting up to 9 units from each settlement per turn (dont worry you stil have to pay and upkeep them) It focuses on battles and realisim, it starts in 215 BC with Hannibal having just marched through Italy and devistating Rome, there are basically the same factions from Vanilla, but they all have a dramatic facelift, for example thrace is no longer the apitamy of a horrible faction, you see it often conquering most of the black sea territories, and you often see hordes of Dacians heading south and fighting Macedon. Speaking of Macedon its phallenxes are all now incredibley well balanced. Plus the graphics= :Party:
