What's Changed (v. 0.5.0):

• (Possibly) the largest campaign map ever created for a Total War mod, with a size of 1020x700 tiles (vs. Vanilla's 255x156), including more than 900 thoroughly researched regions and settlements.
  
• Brand new unit rosters with beautiful remastered units for all Hellenistic factions, utilizing RR's model variety to the fullest extent possible, and hundreds of LODs to keep performance smooth.
  
• 18 brand new factions: Aedui, Allobroges, Ardiaei, Atropatene, Belgae, Bithynia, Boii, Cappadocia, Chatti, Cimbri, Edetani, Insubres, Lugii, Lusitani, Masaesyli, Scordisci, Tylis, and Volcae.
  
• Loads of new descriptions for factions, units, as well as the new recruitment buildings, written by and based on historical research by our own historians.
  
• New BI-based religion system, simulating 22 cultures of the time (Italic, Greek, Celtic, Germanic, Iberian, Illyrian, Baltic, Thracian, Scythian, Libyan, Phoenician, Egyptian, Ethiopian, Arab, Judaean, Assyrian, Anatolian, Caucasian, Armenian, Mesopotamian, Iranian, and Indian).
  
• New Cultures to simulate factional differences and the various independent diverse kingdoms, peoples and nations that aren't represented by a faction. You'll notice these in new Rebel banners and symbols (Roman, Greek, Western Hellenistic, Eastern Hellenistic, Thracian, Gallic, Britonnic, Celtiberian, Germanic, Dacian, Scythian, Phoenician, Libyan, Anatolian, Armenian, Iranian, Egyptian, Illyrian, and Iberian).
  
• New music and music selection, combining the works of the RS2 and RTR composers as well as the compositions of Tyler Cunningham, the 0 A.D. team, and Paeninsula Italica.

In this mod, a character's ethnicity will contribute to religious growth and unrest.
  
• Unit stats have been overhauled to make battles more enjoyable and tactical. All units have less morale and armour so they are more susceptible to morale shocks. Missile units have been improved to be more effective but need to attack on the flanks to deal significant damage. Some units have also had their costs adjusted in order to better reflect their capabilities and value.
  
• The Greek City States faction is no longer on the map, but it can appear during a revolt in a Greek region.
  
• A challenging economic system, focused on farming early and trade later. This is a much more difficult system than vanilla, but not impossible by any means. We will expand upon these features in later versions of the mod.

• Slight RIS-ification of the Vanilla UI, including a new main menu video in the spirit of Vanilla's.
