it s sad man, but i just dont think rome 2 is a good enough game for DEI, there s so many ambitious little features from the supply system to the population mechanic, but i just don t think they can be well implemented enough considering the base game, so many problems especially on the campaign map, predicted income instantly changing as soon i hit end turn, same with food- leads to starvation and no replenishment, leaving you exposed to attacks, rinse and repeat. If i knew how to mod i d tweak a few things, first reduce fleet movement speed- the AI can see all your settlements and their garrison, they ll always attack the weak spot, they don t need those broken fleets that come out of the fog of war and are within striking distance of 3-4 port settlements so you can t defend them all. I d change the replenishment to the way it is in para bellum, from my limited experience it doesn`t require population from the class the unit was recruited from to replenish, you would need troops from a certain class only to recruit new units. This is also a problem because i could have 19 units made up of barbaroi, but because the bodyguards are eugeneis, replenishment would seemingly(?) not work. I`d bin the whole supply system, just seems bugged all around, i have a food surplus and enough supply routes, but taking attrition whilst in a settlement. Whether i m gonna loose men or not at the end of a turn feels too much like a dice roll and you don t want that in a strategy game. When it comes to the battles i d change the unit spacing obviously and the units strict adherence to formations, even when not in guard mode, makes the battle line look a bit like a zig zag line, which i like to abuse don t get me wrong.
