Conflictus Antiquarum Culturarum (CAC) version 1.4

Conflictus Antiquarum Culturarum:

Welcome Welcome to the world of Conflictus Antiquarum Culturarum (CAC) or Clashes between Ancient Cultures, which it loosely can be translated to in English.
Conflictus Antiquis Culturarum is a major overhaul of Rome 2 that is aimed to improve gameplay and add diversity to the vanilla game.

The mod is focused on history and Realism (but it doesn’t mean that it is 100% historical correct), within the limits the CA source data and game engine provides. Most aspects of the game and all factions has undergone changes as part of this mod.

We are still proud to present this labour of love that we have worked very hard to complete over the last two years.

In May 2015 the mod reached its first production release (version 1.0) with the Main Campaign, Augustus DLC Campaign, Caesar in Gaul DLC Campaign, Hannibal at the Gates DLC Campaign and Wrath of Sparta DLC Campaign for Rome 2 extensively modified and feature complete!!

In October 2015 version 1.1 of CAC was released in order to change some gameplay balancing issues reported by community, but also in order to include some of the minor changes that didn't make it into CAC version 1.0.

In March 2016, the updated version 1.2 of CAC was released with completely rebuilt campaign startpos files (all campaigns!), entirely using the Assembly Kit. This means all CAC-playable factions now have victory conditions added or changed compared to vanilla Rome 2. In addition to that, all factions now have buildings from the start of the campaign compared to earlier version of CAC. This means that factions such as Venetkens, Kushan Empire, Hashmannim and Parni now have starting buildings.

In March 2017 the updated version 1.2.1 was released as a minor bug fix version.

In December 2017 the updated version 1.2.2 was released as Empire Divided compatible version (contains no modification of Empire Divided campaign). Only English version of CAC 1.2.2 is supported, because text packs are not updated.

In March 2018 the updated version 1.2.3 was released as Desert Kingdom patch compatible version (New factions not included in CAC)). UPC text packs are also updated.

In August 2018 the updated version 1.2.4 was released as Rise of the Republic patch compatible version and fixes bug related to Roman shields. UPC text packs are also updated.

In December 2018 the updated version 1.3 was released, which includes a CAC modification of the Empire Divided campaign and also fixes missing Hellenic shield patterns. All UPC files are updated.

In January 2019 the updated version 1.4 was released, which includes a CAC modification of the Rise of the Republic campaign. All UPC files are updated.

Two additional custom made campaigns are available for CAC and compatible with 1.2.4/1.3/1.4 here: http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=540159071
