It is the year 356 AD, it is a time of Total War!

This mod will eventually be a complete overhaul of the Attila Grand Campaign in order to change the time period to 356 AD and the war between the successors of Constantine the Great. This is the last moment of glory of the Roman Empire and I tried to reflect that in their uniforms, the UI and their starting cities and armies. Constantius, last son of Constantine and Emperor of the Eastern Empire, must struggle for dominion of the Western World with his opponent, the usurper and Western Roman Emperor, Magnentius. Historically this war was one of the bloodiest contests that the ancient world ever saw and ultimately weakened the Empire for their collapse under the weight of the Hunnic Invasion 50 years later.

History Lesson:
Constantius II (Latin: Flavius Julius Constantius Augustus; 7 August 317 – 3 November 361) was Roman Emperor from 337 to 361. The second son of Constantine I and Fausta, he ascended to the throne with his brothers Constantine II and Constans upon their father's death.
In 340, Constantius' brothers clashed over the western provinces of the empire. The resulting conflict left Constantine II dead and Constans as ruler of the west until he was overthrown and assassinated in 350 by the usurper Magnentius. Unwilling to accept Magnentius as co-ruler, Constantius defeated him at the battles of Mursa Major and Mons Seleucus. Magnentius committed suicide after the latter battle, leaving Constantius as sole ruler of the empire.
His subsequent military campaigns against Germanic tribes were successful: he defeated the Alamanni in 354 and campaigned across the Danube against the Quadi and Sarmatians in 357.

Overview:
This mod will be a gameplay, startpos and reskin of the vanilla game to make it take place in 356 AD instead of 395. This time period involved massive warfare between the Eastern and Western Roman Empires with some of the largest battles between Roman soldiers in history. i plan on using many of the excellent gameplay mods used in my Rise of the North overhaul, an updated startpos that allows the Romans to play a stronger game and a complete reskin (at least of the Romans initially) that makes them look stronger and cooler (I was inspired to make this mod by the picture above). This reskin will have a very distinct look from the vanilla game thanks to models from Dramabelli and the Ancient Empires mod.

This is the first BETA for this overhaul, next version will include complete reskin of the German, Sarmation and Gothic factions. Check out the TWC forum page here:
