Aristeia is a vision of the trojan war era and is based on the famous story from the epic cycle from which the Iliad has secured its place among the most important works in western literature. Aristeia attempts to be an enjoyable stylised representation of the trojan war faithful to its depiction in archaic literature and early classical pottery.

READ THIS CAREFULLY!

Installation Instructions

THIS MOD REQUIRES RTW - ALEXANDER TO WORK
(note - if you have the steam version please read this topic)

Needless to say if you have a previous version of aristeia installed then navigate to your aristeia folder and move or delete it before installing this version.

1) Download the mod from the following links:-

Download Link 1 - Megaupload

Download Link 2 - Filefront

Download Link 3 - Moddb

Download Link 4 - Strategy Informer

2) Install the mod to your "Rome - Total War" folder, usually located within your 'activision' or 'creative assembly' folders depending on what version of RTW you have.

3) Play the mod through the shortcut generated on your desktop after installation.

4) Come back to these forums with your feedback, screen-shots or any bugs you find after consulting the FAQ which I recommend you read while the download is in progress.

5) If you like the mod, feel free to rep me and the team.

6) Note - once again I forgot to reduce the resolution before uploading, you may need to change it in your preferences file if you don't have an HD monitor.

WARNING - If you use the auto-detect settings button then you may knock off the one-man units. If this happens navigate to your preferences file and change the unit_size property back to 40.

Enjoy!!!

I don't understand what are the one man units you speak of? I probably should play the game before I ask :/

this is easily the best rome 1 mod out there, ive noticed it can be unstable sometimes though im more liable to blame that on win 8 and rome 1 itself, on that note any chance of anyone coming to work on this more its been years but hope right?
