RIS Athena's Blessing

Thank you so much it really helps with the immersion

@RalphCarlock Updated!

Could you add the phalanx to some of Carthage's units like The Sacred Band of Baal and the Libyo-Phoenician Infantry I would love to test Greek might against their phalanxes

I might change the setting for population redistribution to go where generals are stationed like original rome.

Currently it is set to redistribute slaves equally among your other cities.

let me know if there is any prefernce

I just think that that's one of the things that Rome 1 did better than Rome 2, though I think that could be rectified with Troy and Pharaoh's whole weapon switching mechanic. But I digress.

But I know what you mean.

I just wish that more modders would keep something like hoplites and similar units being able to use phalanxes but having swords out of formation, as it gives them a bit of extra flavor and versatility.

I know what you mean, but honestly the hoplites are still decent with spears out of formation. especially against cavalry. i dont think its as simple as adding swords as a secondary weapon, in order to get them to show up as fighting with swords, i think might require a new unit model. that a bit above my modding paygrade at the moment.

Such a hoplite does exist already in my "RXQOL" mod for rome expanded.

ill look into it, because, I too would like an elite hoplite with a sword secondary weapon, in RIS

barring that, the greek swordman role you seek might be filled by the thorakitai, who fight a bit like a greek hastati.

Oh, ok.

I was really hoping that someone would actually give the hoplites back their secondary swords, so at least the more elite ones wouldn't be helpless out of formations and all.

@chubbyninja Just put this mod above RIS. (put it at the very top if you are having trouble)

there is a lot of hoplite variety in the base RIS mod, so the answer elusive but, NO, most hoplites do not have swords.

when out of phalanx, they fight as individuals with shield and spear, not dissimilar to gaul spearmen.

I have to ask.

In which order do I put these mods when trying to launch the game?

Because I know that it's dumbly different from the more modern TW games, where you can just turn on mods together without worrying too much.

And as a secondary question.

Do the hoplites who have the phalanx formation have swords as backup weapons?

ill add testudo to the skiritai in the neqt update
