Sebidee's Pontic Roster Expansion

Sebidee's Pontic Roster Expansion
- Updated 15.08.2019



This large mod for Pontus adds 19 new units and 3 reskins. As always this mod aims to add some much needed variety to the game and improve gameplay while also staying true to history.

Pontus was a hybrid nation, its cities were Greek and its nobles were Persian, inland it was home to ancient Anatolians and newly arrived Celts. It was deeply influenced by it's allies and its rivals with Armenia, Macedon, the Euxine cities, the steppe tribes and Rome leaving their mark - its greatest leader, Mithridates the Great, would use all of this in his struggle against Rome. This mod will attempt to recreate this rich period while preserving Pontus' existing strengths and weaknesses. Pontus is an all rounder, but doesn't really excel in any particular area. A clever general will need to use it's phalanxes, light spearmen, swordsmen, and capable cavalry in unison in order to succeed.

Special thanks go to Rex Imperator, Marshall of France and The Chocolate Jesus for researching and testing this mod.
