Roman Civilization

Description
Have you ever wanted to have the power of Rome at your disposal? Well now you can! This mod introduces the Roman's as a playable civilization (replacing the Italians) in all of their glory placing historicly-reknowned units such as the Legionary at your disposal.

The Romans are an expansive civilization and thrive on their economic growth funding their infantry-based armies. The Romans receive a new unique unit, the Legionary; heavy infantry with trample damage. Their Unique Technologies grant bonuses to your arrow ships and scorpions and strengthen your walls and towers.

Features:
* Unique tech tree completely dissimilar from the civilization they replace (the italians)
* A Roman jingle for random map games
* Powerful infantry unique unit, Legionary, heavily armoured and causes trample damage!
* Different unique techs to bolster your forces and defend your cities
* 12 different great roman emperors the AI can play as
* A brief history of the roman empire in the History section
* Great civilization bonuses to help you establish the Roman Empire!

TROUBLESHOOTING
------------------------------
If you're having any issues enabling or disabling the mod, Subscribe to both mods. Then go to create a multiplayer lobby. Where you choose the settigns for the lobby before creating it you must select the data set and choose Roman Civilization. If you don't see it in the drop down then make sure you are subscribed to both mods, and that they are enabled and then restart your game. Data mods can only be used in multiplayer games. To use the mod offline subscribe to the text mod and replace the data file of your game with the modded data file.

If the text has not updated, be sure that you're running the game in a supported language. Failing that, run the game in English. English text is the default back up and will always be working.

I'm currently more available to spend time monitoring this mod and patching it where necessary (I.E bugs or balance changes) so please send in your feedback and request.

since this mod replaced the italians with the romans i feel like the Condottiero should have been replaced with the Centurion instead of being removed altogheter.
an update that adds the centurion would be very interesting.
Anyway, excellent mod

It would be great if you updated your mood to be the same as the Roman civilization from age II definitive edition

would kill to figure out how to build roads. that was like the #1 defining feature of rome....not the legions or their territory managment, but their ability to build roads and connect their conquests

So I'm confused; I can get the text working and the new techs, but my "legionary" is just a renamed genoese crossbowman. How do I switch it to the legionary proper?

Problem, when I installed the text and Roman civilization, I have legionnaires but only legionnaires, no tech tree changed except for locked units.

I love this mod but, Whenever I save the game and load it back later the legionarys turn to the crossbowmen. Anyway to fix this. Im playing in single player and using a scinario if that helps.

@Marcus Aurelius @Area 51 is a giant meth lab When you guys go into skirmish you should look for the tab listed as "dataset" then you should click on it and select the roman civilization mod
