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

Is this going to be updated to be compatible with 8.1? Currently, as happens with most outdated mods, the game is crashing before completely loading. Thanks for the unit packs and reskins, by the way! You made some great mods.

hey dude what program do you use to mod? would be awesome to try and make my own :)

As far as editing the appearance, you just need to change the variantmeshdefinition file, which is basically just XML. To dual wield, just put a weapon in the shield slot.

Also how to you do the Dual sword units?
Pac-Man3209 Nov 23, 2013 @ 9:20am 
how did you edit the gladiators? Through PFM? I tried. I wanted to have gladiator sword units with no helmets and i cant get it worked out.

Great mod, looks great. I'll go ahead and add my voice to the rest: Can you make a Spartacus hero unit? :3 Based on one of the gladiators, would cap off the faction nicely.
JDizzle Nov 9, 2013 @ 3:08pm 
Yea i got it thanks :D Any chance of you making a hero of spartacus? :D
Gavitron  [author] Nov 9, 2013 @ 2:12pm 
Hey man, there's a link to it in the description, or you can just do a quick search here on the workshop.

Where can i find the playable factions mod?
Gavitron  [author] Nov 5, 2013 @ 10:59pm 
They should work fin in custom battles, but they are only available to the Odrysian Kingdom, which you need the Playable Factions mod to play as.
JDizzle Nov 5, 2013 @ 3:36pm 
Dude they look great! But i am trying to make a a battle cinamatic on spartacus on my channel, but unable to do so because you need to launch a campaign to play as them, i would prefer it if you made it available in custom game some how? Maybe make spartacus as a hero.

cant find them in custom games :(

So I gave them a higher percentage of kopis and rectangular shields, and fixed the recruiting. Formerly the brine distillery had to be in a major city.

Their stats are the same as Roman gladiators, btw.
spliffkid1 Oct 29, 2013 @ 4:41pm 
Awesome man! Anyway you can beef out there stats a little bit? Keep it up, killer stuff!
Gannicus Oct 29, 2013 @ 9:42am 
nice dude nice try make some Spartacus unist and gannicus and some crixus would be cool
Gavitron  [author] Oct 28, 2013 @ 8:40pm 
A lot of them do use the curved kopis, but unfortunately Rome 2 doesn't include a model for the sica, unfortunate as it was considered by many Thracians to be their signature weapon. I mixed in some other weapons as well to give them a "freshly escaped" look.
Gavitron  [author] Oct 28, 2013 @ 8:35pm 
Thanks guys. CA keeps changing the stats on me. I will take a look and update these dudes.
Bófinn Oct 28, 2013 @ 10:02am 
simply pure awesomeness
israbaldurs Oct 28, 2013 @ 5:25am 
Looks great,great job, you're the best
OttoTheTigerTank Oct 27, 2013 @ 5:14pm 
cool mod but these guys are weaker than regular gladiators for some reason. And when will you add more units to thrace :)
drazan Oct 27, 2013 @ 3:07pm 
great mod,but my advice would be to replace the swords with the egyptian curved sworde. a thraex used a smaller version of the scutum named a parma,and the sword he used was a sica,a sword with at the edge of it's blade hookes inwards,to cut hands that hold shields(if this makes sense :p) if your enemy blocks your attack with his shield,you could still either hit his hand,or use the corner in your sword to remove his schield. and the egyptian sword looks the closest to it :d just my opinion
OttoTheTigerTank Oct 27, 2013 @ 10:04am 
I noticed something, in the campaign i can't recruit them??? What building is it or you just didn't add the units for campiagn yet
GreatOldTreebeard Oct 27, 2013 @ 9:36am 
Great idea, subscribed!! Just one question: you said this mod should be a tribute to spartacus, so could you maybe increase the stats of the thracian gladiator units so they would beat oathsworn and other units like that? Could be a new mod like "Spartacus unleashed" or something :D but great work with all your mods, I really enjoy them!
Gilbereth Oct 27, 2013 @ 4:26am 
Awesome, subscribed! Are you going to make more Thracian units after this, or do you think that it's enough for now? (Wouldn't mind seeing RTW I Bastarnae units ^^, you could use naked warrior skins along with thracian helmets and greaves for that.. heheh, sorry.)
Cherrynator Oct 26, 2013 @ 4:17pm 
Looks great, Thracian rooster is getting bigger and bigger.
Keep up the good work!

Cheers!
