Hello,this mod is to give players the opportunity to play with their favourite units in one faction.It was made with the purpose of giving rome 2 a new aspect and make it more enjoyable while at the same time balancing the units thus making it more playable and avoiding any exploitation.Firstly gonna be made for multiplayer and then these factions are gonna be playable in campaign.The rules where the custom factions are made of are below:
If you want to run everything smoother and make it easier for you ,you can come to this discord by this invite below where you will be able to experience the full custimazation of your factions like custom units and so on so forth:
https://discord.gg/3B4feZWVRf
If you do not want to you can read the rules down below. ;)
Rules :
Pick 14 of your most favourite units in the entire game.No matter what it says below you have to pick 14 units no more no less.
Only your favourite units should be included, nothing more nothing else.
1)DlC exclusive units:
A)If a person wants to have a dlc exclusive unit then he can have it as long as it is included in those 14 units.
B)If a person does not have any dlc that is still good because he does not need to pick any.You can pick all your units from grand campaign ,there are several examples of this mod where people picked only units from grand campaign or other campaign as well.
C)Empire Divided:If any of the units that you like are from empire divided then you are allowed only to bring two of them
2)Strong/Overpowered Units
As we all know in rome 2 there exists a certain number of units that extremely strong for the game either because of price or they are just simply too strong.
I)No matter what unit you choose you are allowed to have or chose only one of the units from the list below to have in your faction.
II)If you decide to choose from the list below that belongs to the Empire Divided campaign then you are left with 1 more choice.For example if i pick a longsword cohort then i can only pick one other empire divided unit that is not from the list below.
III)In the list below you will see the name of the units and then next to it is the faction and dlc that it belongs to.

I say it again, you are allowed to pick only one very strong unit out of all those listed below which are:
1)Skiritai = Sparta (Wrath of Sparta dlc)
2)Camel Cataphracts = Saba/Parthia (Grand Campaign)
3)Veteran Legionaries = Rome (Caesar In Gaul dlc)
4)Veteran Centuriae = Rome (Rise of Republic)
5)Triarii = Rome (Rise of Republic)
6)Tarantine Hoplites = Taras (Rise of Republic)
7)Tarantine Peltast = Taras (Rise of Republic)
8)Mercenary Spartan Hoplites = Taras (Rise of Republic)
9)Marib Camel Cataphracts = Saba (Grand Campaign)
10)Longsword Cohort = Gallic Rome (Empire Divided)
11)Armoured Chariots = Gallic Rome (Empire Divided)
12)160 Berserkers men = Marcomanni (Empire Divided)
13)Noble Armenian Archers = Armenia (Empire Divided)
14)Hamian Archers = Palmyra (Empire Divided)
15)Palmyrene Palace Guard = Palmyra (Empire Divided)
16)Heavy Palmyrene Skirmishers = Palmyra (Empire Divided)
17)Noble Steppe Cataphracts Bodyguard =Alani (Empire Divided)
18)Armoured Indian War elephants = Sassanids (Empire Divided)
19)Royal Archers = Sassanids (Empire Divided)
20)Kurdish Archers = Sassanids (Empire Divided)
WARNING!!!
1)This list is a limitation in case somebody decides to bring more than one.
2)BE WARNED some of the of these units above will change in order not to destroy the mod as some of these units are so strong that it makes the mod boring,unfun and above all unplayable as it has been proven they are too strong to be left untouched.By Changes i mean unit prices which is gonna be the first thing we will strive for but if the unit is too strong then either stats/category change or putting a cap which is the last thing I will think of along with the deletion of the unit.At the same time if I see a very super strong unit, appropriate changes will be made to make it rise back up but also keep it a bit balance,
REMEMBER ONE ONLY UNIT YOU CAN BE CHOSEN ABOVE





3)BANNED UNITS
1)Mercenary Balearic Slingers which cost 420 from Empire Divided
2)Unlimited Version of the Mercenary Spartan Hoplites from Rise of the Republic
3)Syrian Elephants that cost 1000


Unfortunatelly there are so many units that you can not know all of them or how strong they are but if you pick one I will let you know asap.


4)GENERALS AND FACTIONS
After you have picked your units you have to pick at least 2 or 3 units that will be as a general option as well which will come from the 14 units you chose.
For you faction please:
Pick 2 or 3 colours (1 primary,1 secondary 1 third) where these colours are essential for your uniforms and banners of your units.
And a faction.

All artillery and tortoise is auto-included.
After the list is finished you are allowed one fully customizable unit which will be done after you send me the list of your units


Here is an example:
Favourite Faction : Rome
Favourite Colours:Gold Black White
1)Armoured Legionaries (Gen)
2)Galatian Legionaries
3)Veteran Legionaries from CIG(Ceasar In Gaul
4)Pontic Swordsmen
5)Hippeus Lancer
6)Cappadocian Cavalry
7)Celtic Warriors(Gen)
8)Slave Infantry
9)Thureos Spears
10)Celtic Slingers
11)Cimmerian Heavy Archers
12)Peltast
13)Tribesmen
14)Citizen Cav

And so on so forth until you reach your fourteenth unit where the gen in the parenthesis means that you want this unit as a gen WHICH mean i will have the celtic and armoured legionaries gens
