Gavitron's ILLYRIA Unit Pack (wip)

ATTENTION

Unfortunately due to work and other factors I won't be able to update my mods anymore, so I'm releasing them to the community in case anyone wants to take them on.

From hereon out, anyone is free to take and use my Rome 2 mods in any way, whether simply updating them for new patches, or stealing all my units and putting them in another mod.

All I ask is to be mentioned as the original creator. Good luck and have fun!

Thank you,
Gavin

Hey everyone, I'm back with another pack. Please keep in mind that it's still a work in progress, and I have a few more things to add. This mod is New Units Only compatible.

If you want the new faction colours and to see the new armour on vanilla units, check out my Addon Pack (compatibility not guaranteed).

This time I decided to tackle the illustrious tribes of Illyria. I've added 5 new units for all three Illyrian factions, and another 3 unique units for each faction. I chose the Illyrians because while they are clearly similar Greeks, they have their own unique twist and a bit of Celtic influence. They also had some obvious gaps in the unit rosters.

I've also added a new dark leather cuirass that I made in Photoshop, as well as a scaled variation. Several of the new units have them. The faction colours have been changed as well.

One unique thing about the Illyrians is that their hoplites don't have the phalanx ability. I'm not sure about the historical basis for this but I decided to go with it, and tried to think of the Illyrians as a more mobile variation of greek warfare.

Warriors - Based on Celtic warriors, these guys are a bread and butter melee unit.
Town Guard - Based on Celtic spear warriors, this is a solid defensive unit that can only be recruited in a major city.
Royal Guard - Based on Celtic Oathsworn, this is a devastating and well-rounded melee force composed of the most elite fighters in Illyrian culture.
Harriers - A basic horse archer unit.
Pursuers - A basic lancer unit.

As far as I can tell, the Ardiaei seem to be the most Greek of the Illyrian tribes featured in Rome II, and I gave them hoplites and more Hellenic gear accordingly.

Epidamnian Swordsmen - Based on the Iberian scutarii, these heavy swordsmen are reliable and well-rounded.
Riders - Based on Italian cavalry, this is a good heavy spear cavalry unit.
Chosen Hoplites - Based on thorax hoplites, these hoplites can't form a phalanx, but will pack a punch on the charge.

With their major city, I operated on a more urban theme when it came to the Daorsi. They have more defensive-oriented units than the other Illyrian tribes.

Archers - This is a basic archer unit, perfect for manning the city walls.
Wallguard - Just a basic levy pike unit, stick these guys in a choke point and they'll give a good account for themselves.
King's Guard - Based on Celtic noble spears, this is a powerful defensive unit that is perfect for holding your center or dealing with any cavalry problems you might run into.

Bordered by barbarian tribes to the north, the Delmatae have bred powerful warhorses and adopted a very mobile military convention.

Horse - Based on Iberian cavalry, this is a well-rounded melee cavalry unit.
Noble Horse - Based on Celtic noble horse, this is a hard-hitting spear cavalry unit.
Heavy Horse - Based on Greek aspis companion cav, these heavy melee horsemen will tear most units to shreds.

REQUIRED: If you want to actually play as the Ardiaei, Daorsi or Delmatae, you need the Playable Factions and Custom Battle mod[twcenter.net] by izanagi11.

Don't forget to check out my Thrace mod, as well as the Thraex gladiator addon.

Let me know if you guys have any feedback.
