Para Bellum - Open Beta. Last version update (16/06/2023) main features:

- Guaranteed major faction empires by Mitch.

https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2507194347
You can find it in the main menu campaigns as the "Late Roman Republic: First Civil War".

- 20 new historical units:
* Early and Late Camillan hastati, principes, triarii and Camillan socii hastati and socii extraordinarii, available in RotR campaign through The reforms of Camillus and Weapons training technologies.
* Early and Late Polybian hastati, principes, triarii, socii hastati and socii extraordinarii legionaries, available for the GC and HatG campaigns with the Mercenary Auxiliaries technology.
Including all short of details like +300 shields designs or the skins classified so the hastati look the youngest, principes adults and triarii the oldest, though there is a bit of mix to keep cohesion and a high variety of looks.
* Iphikratean hoplites and Iphikratean peltasts, available for Athens in the GC through the Military settlement and in WoS through the Peltast training technology.
- 68 new skins, including 3 new body shapes variations, for Greeks and Romans.
- Improved weapons and other equipment models.
- Alternative Polybian, Marian and Imperial legionaries animations holding the pila.
- Many other graphical improvements.

Hi @AveMetal I'm a big fan of your mod so much so that I'm happy to bring it to my YouTube channel. I just have a few questions if I may:
1. Is it possible to have Thespian hoplites and the Sacred Band for the Boeotian League in WoS?
2. Another question could some hoplites have the Killing Spree skill?
3. Is there by chance the possibility of reviewing the Venetian population perhaps by adding some phalanx units as a historical script, such as the Nobles with thureos or the young hoplites with aspis?

Open Beta updated with the spectacular Marius vs Sulla campaign, created by Euro-Centric Military Historian:
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2507194347

This campaign was already compatible and recommended in our compatible mods collection, but now it is perfectly integrated with Para Bellum, with its scripts, mechanics, units, etc., and you can find it in the Open Beta main menu campaigns as the "Late Roman Republic: First Civil War".

Many thanks to Euro-Centric Military Historian for sharing so kindly this great campaign, and also to DETropper from the Divide et Impera team, for allowing me to use his superb script to make this possible.

Weather and Effects mod are included within the Para Bellum Collection, that is needed for the Open Beta. But check the Collection description, there are instructions for the Effects movie file, that doesn't work just by subscribing.

and the weather mod
panzer456 24 Sep, 2023 @ 8:34am 
do we still need to use effects mod or is it in it?

Para Bellum - Open Beta updated:

- Transferred to the campaign mod, with some adjustments, the War weariness mechanics, supplies, omens, expanded seasonal conditions now also available for all campaigns.

The info of these new mechanics and changes was detailed in the previous update announcement, and shown when a new campaign is started.
