About this mod Machine translation

Mare Nostrum (Roman Ability)

Rome was famous for its legions, roads and gladiators. All of this has to do with land and land warfare. However, during and by extension the Punic Wars, Rome exerted such tight control over the Mediterranean that they called it "Malnostraum" or "Our Sea".

This mod takes this into account by giving Rome some of the abilities traditionally reserved for Norse civilization, such as faster naval movement, early ocean navigation, coastal raiding capabilities, and the ability to heal within neutral territory. Additionally, Mare Nostrum removed the cost of embarkation from land units, as evidenced by the Roman legions sailing, landing, fighting (or at least defending), and returning to ships while chasing Hannibal from Iberia.

Rome is known for its Legions, its Roads, and its Gladiators. All of which are land and land combat related. But, beginning during the Punic wars and extending after, Rome held such tight control of the Mediterranean Sea that they called it "Mare Nostrum", or "Our Sea".

This Mod takes that into account by giving Rome some of the abilities traditionally reserved for Norse Civilizations such as faster naval movement, early ocean navigation, coastal raiding abilities, and the ability to heal in neutral territory. Additionally, Mare Nostrum removes the embarkation cost from land units as evidenced by the Roman Legion's ability to sail, land, fight (at least defend ), and get back on the ships while chasing Hannibal up from Iberia.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
