More Interesting Germanic GamePlay Mod - Beta Test

Test Version of the More Interesting Germanic GamePlay mod:

This mod aims to make playing the Germans more distinct and interesting, with new units and modified mechanics, and a sense of progression.

The Germanic tribes fierce independence made them resistant to subjugation - but it also meant that no king of the era was able to forge a central authority and survive the attempt. Later germanic kings, redefining the very meaning of germanic kingship, would demonstrate just what the tribes could do with a sufficiently strong unifying authority.
Rome2 assumes no real advancement on the part of the germanic peoples, effectively keeping them where they were technologically and militarily at the beginning of the grand campaign era.
This mod considers possible advancements - from great chiefs, from evolving to have vassals, the emergence of the warrior cults, the possibility of acquiring iron supplies, and contact with other peoples.
This is represented in game terms by adding many new units ( courtesy of BigBadWolf's German pack, and a few additional units ), and changing how the units are recruited - the 'artisan' chain is replaced with the minor chief holdings chain - allowing raising of the hunter and militia units. Vassal chiefs raise the equivalent of auxilaries.
the high chief chain - central authority represented by the high chief hall holdings, upgrading through king; only buildable in province capitals, allows the mustering of the best veteran marauders and warbands - even minor chiefs that would otherwise be generals/bodyguards - the highest tier units - and, when unlocked by research, the militarily technology-advanced units that historically emerge in the first and second centuries. Iron and horse resources unlock new units as well.
And, religious authority - Wodanaz supplanted the old "top dog" gods to become the god of the nobles - The Wodanaz religious chain is also only buildable in province capital slots , and this unlocks the warrior cult units - the Harii ghost warriors?Einherjar of the wild hunt, the Ulfhednar ( wolf cult, perhaps later absorbed into the berserkers ), and , of course, the berserkers.
Happy Hunting.
