KLA's better Roman Legionaries Mod (Empire Divided) для Total War: ROME II - Emperor Edition
I made the mod of Roman legionary units for the Aurelian Empire.
The mod changes units fighting in the traditional Legionary mode: Legionaries, Cohors, Levies, Evocati Cohors, Praetorian Guards, Ioviani and Herculiani.
Units that looked very bad in the basic version of the game. Worse than the cavalry.
They had too many elements from the time of Augustus (the 1st century AD), as well as those transferred from Attila (4th-5th centuries AD).
I decided to remove the ridge helmets, which appeared only at the end of the 3rd century AD The oldest ones come after 280 AD however, in a very simple form and weren't as common as in the game.
I added a lot of new elements and also selected existing ones to fit the 3rd century AD.
In addition, units are more diverse and interesting.
