Pýrrhos Aiakídēs 0.2.3.2

New update: 0.2.3.0: set up a configuration screen to skip the tutorial and enable/disable the use of ancient languages.

Recreate the historic invasion of Italy by Pýrrhos of Ápeiros in this campaign reworked to closely follow the historical record, with an optional tutorial, and considerable additional historical information, including optional native Greek and Latin names for units (may be expanded to other languages too, as well as buildings).

In-depth historical research and assessment takes plenty of time, not even taking into account modding, so THIS MOD IS A WORK IN PROGRESS, AND AS OF NOW, YOU CAN ONLY PLAY UNTIL THE BATTLE OF HERACLEA

Plausible historical army sizes were recreated in a 1:100 scale, so troop numbers are now immense. This is especially bad if your computer is not very new, as having more units slows down the game incredibly, even with a higher graphics-capable computer!

This mod was developped during the course of one and a half months and is still a work in progress. Currently being made public for feedback.

Be warned the prologue can be a little long, and the gameplay lasts only around thirty minutes if you are an experienced player. Nevertheless, I invite you to play it and provide constructive feedback if you wish to do so, especially welcome are comments on the Tutorial concept, as well as the Greek/Latin unit names.

The mod currently has a couple of bugs still present, but if they appear, you need only press F2 to hide the console, as the bugs will not cause an impact on the game at all.
