Para Bellum Roman Legions

Description
***UPDATE 08/10/2022*** - Scripts have been revised by fellow modder AveMetal, developer of the main overhaul mod, it should be fully functional now. All credits to him for updating it. Enjoy!!! -

A port of my Roman Legions mod to the Para Bellum overhaul since I discovered the very heavy hit on performance DeI takes nowadays (and by many people, since ever). This overhaul is a compilation of many mods and while it changes many things it respects more the vanilla game, and the performance hit is very low, I suggest you try it.

There are a number of fixes I made for this mod that are not present in the DeI version, its just a general VMD optimization so all models can be displayed no matter the graphical setting, I tested it on my system and the performance hit was minimum.

Since there aren't reforms unlike DeI, all the units can be recruited when the required technologies are researched from roman barracks III and IV, marian legionaries and imperial legionaries respectively.

Other things I added for this iteration are some cold weather equipment to the legions deployed on the north of europe and brittain, mainly trousers, and maybe the biggest change which are some manica segmentata to the legions that historically held the dacian border, turning them into armoured legionaries stat wise. For the eagle cohorts of these legions I tried to balance them in between of an eagle cohort and the armoured legionaries, you tell me if i did well.

The legions affected by the last change, only in the imperial stage, are:

- I Audiutrix
- I Italica
- II Audiutrix
- IV Flavia Felix
- V Macedonica
- VII Claudia Pia Fidelis
- X Gemina
- XI Claudia
- XIII Gemina
- XIV Gemina

As always, load my mod above all the required ones I listed

Enjoy!!

@lukavstheworld, i have meddled with that mod before, or some other like it, its all done through unit abilities, like the arverni shieldwall or the phalanx, download that mod, open the tables and identify what ability code and label corresponds to the in-game ability you want to assign to each unit and then add my units into the unit ability table and link them with those codes. You are free to upload a version of my mod with that other mod joined together, just give credit please. Btw, i no longer mod rome 2, so this is all the help i can give you

@noniac i'd like to implement the "realistic legionary tactics" to your mod for my own personal fun. I haven't reached out to their team to chat about it yet, but I figured i'd ask you if you happen to know how to do this? I know how to mod general files but carrying over the abilities from their mod to yours is the only stump i've hit. I'll even pay you for your time. If their team and you are ok with it, you could maybe implement it into the mod itself when i've polished it.

@sameh.lamada Try putting the mod below unit pack 3. If using Para Bellum Roman Legions you will notice if playing with LEGENDARY EMPIRES HD Rome you will be missing swords in late era. They will have all equipment/shields and armor but when upgrading in late campaign you won't have swords. Just a heads up if using any of the HD mods for rome. They work great in the early campaign with swords but are missing in late campaign.

Hi @noniac with the last update of Parabellum the mod need an update because many unit have broken textures.

Buenas, el mod está actualizado para la ultima versión de Para Pellum?

Hey, even though some units have trousers in their unit cards, they still do not have cold weather equipment in battles. Is this normal? Thank you.

Can you update the mod so i dont have to see legionaires with half of their chest gone and no helmet and no sword?

Para Bellum submod - Bigger units size .Here is the mod that guy was talking about. It works great with the rest of the mods/submods of para bellum.. So, I'm no modder, but I think Someone who knows more about this type of thing,such as yourself, you could give it a quick once over... ? If you are able to get it working......please please please msg me or let me know by commenting here xD
