SUMMARY

Hellenika is a total overhaul of the Wrath of Sparta campaign. It combines stunning and historical visuals with campaign mechanics never seen before. Nearly every aspect of the vanilla game has been redone for both Greeks and Persians with astonishing detail. Thanks to a dedicated team this mod has been created with the purpose to give you an immersive and completely fresh-new gaming experience.


OUR AIM

This mod has been created with 2 targets in mind.
1 ) The absolute devotion to historic authenticity. We did not use any “what if scenarios” or fantasy units and whenever we faced a design dilemma between making the game follow historical facts or being “game play friendly” or “mainstream” we chose the path of history. Every gameplay or visual decision was taken after confirmation in historical textbooks and each one’s personal research .
2 ) “Force” the player to use his strategic skills and bombard him with dilemmas. In every decision there are pros and cons and hopefully this is an element to increase replay ability.


WHAT NEW ΤΗΙS MOD BRINGS

In an overview let us present you some of the mod’s features

- Authentic unit looks

And many, many more!

@M@x1mus @Phalangitis Hello, sorry I would like to make a request, I am the creator of the mod: rome hd recolor: vanilla + DEI (the models are not mine), I was working on a mod that uses the hd textures of that mod with the shields of yours, I want to know if they would grant me the permissions to use them. Ave metal told me to request them.

youve read the manual and guide before playing the mod? i guess no and have you tried the new updated version of 2 other spanish guys? that one is the ruined one and unhistorical accurate, not the original . Im sure you got hired by them to say your bullshit in this wonderful mode page. Also this mod is supposed to be played by total war veterans that understand that replenishment in rome 2 is ridiculous , if you remember how medieval 2 used to be played, so do me the favor and gtfo of here newbie

I played this mod in 2016 with a friend on co-op and it was the greatest thing ever for Rome 2 at the time. Loved playing as Persia too, had a blast. Came back to this mod today, only to find numerous changes that I initially thought were related to CA's stupidity somehow...instead to find out that the mod has been changed?

According to his reasons, "replenishment" of armies is not historical. Yeah, that's bullsh1t. Troop replenishment is very historical and was present all throughout the ancient world, yet here it is now disabled, doesn't work even when your armies are garrisoned in provincial capitals, and the recruitment of troops is also ridiculously long. Agents are also extremely nerfed to where champions can't even be used anymore for military training, nor most others, and the army marching types as well as the edicts have been altered and made substantially worse.

All in all, this was a great mod initially, and I know there was a whole teaming working behind it to make it good, but according to Phalangitis, he turned the mechanics into unhistorical, unplayable hot garbage. This mod is definitely ruined and not worth playing anymore; I couldn't even bother to get past more than 65 turns because the inability for troop replenishment was so game breaking. Just garbage. Very disappointing. He should go work for Activision Blizzard, he'd fit right in.
