Barbarian Engineering

The goal of this mod is to give each culture (Barbarian, Carthaginian, Eastern, Egyptian, Greek and Roman) a unique campaign experience. With the addition of Danymok’s amazing new units, even each faction will provide a fresh and unique campaign.

Important: Set Unit Colour Scheme to Realistic in your Graphics Settings! Vibrant does not work for any mods adding units.
