EUROPE 270 BC II
A campaign mod for Rome Total War, version 1.5/ 1.6
FEATURES:
Europe 270 BC II simply includes everything which I added to the mod since the last versions release. My concept for the mod was vanilla Rtw gameplay but with more historical textures for the units and a more natural looking landscape. There are only some minor changes to the games sytem but alot to the visual expierience of playing Rome Total War.
- Very large campaign map with a close to reality earth surface.
- New textures for the Campaign and Battlemap.
- New skins for all factions and many new custom models and units.
- Custom celtic ruins and farms, my "roman fort mod".
- Historical Earthquakes, tsunami and Vulcan erruptions.
- 195 Regions.
- Complete set of new grass textures.
- Custom Sky and Weather.
- My version of customised skydome.txt, daytypes.txt,vegetation.txt, geography.db.
- RSII environment. ( also the vegetation is from the RSII environment addon, landscape textures and coloration is very different to RS II )
INSTALLATION:
Use a clean installation of Rome total war 1.5 / 1.6 or a copy of a unchanged installation to a folder of your choice.
Add the files of the mod to the Rtw folder, allow overwriting of all default files.

Thank you very much!
"two in one"
There is also the Europe 270 BC provincial campaign included, to play the provincial campaign you have to use a shortcut with -mod:europa270bc option.
Details about the differences of the main and provincial campaign map:
The map of the provincial campaign is made with a max_land_height 7511.272 value and the coastlines edited to look good with the value.
The map of the main campaign is made with a max_land_height 8527.272 and the coastlines edited to look good with the higher value.
The RS2 environment has no subarktic climate and used it as a second variation of the semiarid climate. In Europe 270bc II, there is again a subarctic vegetation with dense forest.
The main campaign map has some regions of subarctic forest south of the true subarctic zone, in higher altitudes and east of the river rhine. (Teuteburg forest for example)
The provincial campaign map has only the default RS2 deep forest in those areas and subarctic forest only in the subarctic climate zone.
