ahowl11's VE Mod (Main Discussion) v19 New Map, New Factions & Unified Rome

[Kartaen]

I still dont understand combat in the mod
Cons:
- Heavy cavalry (tested Parthians) can be easily wiped out by medium group of light infantry or even skirmishers in meele, and most importantly - how exactly cataphract can die from dagger of armenian archer in few seconds?
- Combat overal too fast, units dying fast, losing morale fast, romans are just a killing machines literally.
- Any type of thorakitai cant deal with principes and even hastati.
- Battles feels more about killing as fast as possible without any interesting tactical elements.
- Cavalry sometimes working just bad.
- Spear units... eh...
- Heavy armoured units with low killing rate (mostly hoplites) cant hold ground for several minutes against any medium/heavy infantry.
- Whats wrong with slingers and archers shooting range? Why?
Pros:
- You managed to fix main problem of RTW - patchfinding. It still looks little buggy but it cant make me mad anymore, even cavalry can charge on the streets! Its amazing!
- Cavalry is no more unstopable force.
- Animations.
- Hoplite phalanx formation.
- Some minor changes.
Bugs/technical problems:
- Seems that some units have a lack of sprites (ex greek thureophoroi).
- Some units have too low upkeep cost (ex thracian merc., Bastarnae)
- CTD after 2-3 major battles.
Questions:
1. Will you adapt to your mod historical battles?
2. Will you add a provincial campaigns (ex Ceasar in Gaul, or Augustine Principate, Punic wars...)? I am asking because campaigns are too fast to get Marian reforms when you are playing as non-roman faction.
3. How soon new update?

Also forgot to add that sieges became much more interesting, skirmishers of all types can properly support shock troops by shooting wall defenders, towers cant kill half of the army anymore!
