Persian Empire Mod by tehhaxxor23 aka m9x
Version: 1.4
-------
How-To
-------
1. Have a clean/fresh installation of RTW.
2. Install patch 1.3.
3. Install patch 1.5.
4. BACK UP(!!!) these files:
- data\export_descr_unit.txt
- data\export_descr_buildings.txt
- data\export_descr_unit_enums.txt
- data\descr_model_battle.txt
- data\descr_building_battle.txt
- data\descr_model_strat.txt
- data\descr_mount.txt
- data\descr_sm_factions.txt
- backup entire data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign\ folder
5. Copy over all of the included files in this mod and replace existing ones
with them.
6. To play the campaign, select "Provincial Campaign" and Persian Empire, or
you can play the regular Imperial Campaign as well (same thing basically).
7. To play custom battles, just do as you always did.

Alexander addon is NOT required to run this mod!
-------
List of major changes to the game:
-------
- completely replaced Parthia with Persia including descriptions, captions, ...
- completely removed Parthian unit roster and replaced with Persian units
- brand new and hot unit models for Persia taken from the Alexander addon
- full battle & strategic map compatibility
- changed naval unit skins, generals skins, diplomat skins, symbols, ...
-------
List of minor changes to the game:
-------
- slighty increased power of Persian Immortals, they're now nearly as strong
as the Sacred Band
- new and accurate building tree for Persia
- changed campaign map decoration
- ...
-------
List of known issues/bugs:
-------
- no bugs until now found by me. If you have one, please contact me (on the forums).
- issue: some Persian units don't have a response-sound when clicked on at the battle
map
-------
Notes
-------
I've paid much attention to every detail, for example the lesser generals (the ones
who are with your units in custom battle mode) are altered as well.

I'm not sure how well this mod works with other major mods like RTR. Feel
free to test and let me know how it worked out if you care.

Sidenote, I know that the campaign description is not "true". It's a work of fiction
and meant to be one.

Enjoy

Changes since last version:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Update from 1.3 to 1.4:
- balanced immortals: raised recruitment price to 700 - they were too cheap in relation to their power
- slightly increased attack power of kardakes and price as well, so they differ more from the regular infantry

Update from 1.2 to 1.3:
- Persia can no longer build army barracks and therefore not recruit Phrygian Mercenaries, because the building wasn't made for Parthia in the first place. Didn't cause any failures but it looked silly.
- obviously, removed the Phrygian Mercenaries from campaign, they are quite overpowered anyway. But still selectable in custom battles.

Update from 1.1 to 1.2:
- fixed bug where strategy map generals didn't have a face or real texture
- added texture for some part of buildings, not sure which one - but definitely good having it

Update from 1.0 to 1.1:
- renamed Seleucia to Babylon
- minor fixes to imperial campaign, it's now actually playable again
- don't forget to backup your imperial campaign folder!!!
