I see the new update is still in beta so I'll hold-off on any comments on it. Do these DEI guys EVER take a day off?  :o

It sure doesn't seem like they do, doesn't it?  (And no, Gus, I'm not surprised they already put out another update.)  ;) 

Honestly, I think the sheer number of people on the DEI team means that simple Law of Averages dictates that someone, somewhere, is improving/updating the mod (at least their particular piece of it) at just about any given time -- which in turn allows them to push out updates at a relatively frequent (or at least regular) pace.  And thank goodness for that.  :bigthumb:

Thanks, Gus.  TheTerminator does some good breakdowns/analyses.

Yeah I enjoy his stuff. I installed the new DEI beta last night. Alexander is in the house.

I've had the game in my library for ages - I seem to remember my son gifted it to me as its also his all-time favourite most-played game. I really should reinstall it and get back into it.

^  That as well, yes.  :) 


Though knowing him, I think he'd enjoy the vanilla game just fine as well, at least/especially at first.  There is honestly a lot of fun & replayability to be had with regular Rome II, even without mods, or even any DLC.

Going to start a campaign this weekend as Ptolemaic Egypt (in DEI)…I am prepared but not hyped to turn the difficulty down to ‘easy’ :/
