The RTR team are re-imagining the use of regions in their mod, and they’re giving us a sneak peek of exactly how it will work in ‘Rome: Total Realism VII – Fate of Empires’ in this preview. There will be two types of regions: Major Regions & Minor Regons. The latter will feature smaller settlements with a distinct character (ports, stronghold, etc.), and you will be unable to recruit troops there or upgrade its defences. Read all about it by following the link above.

The team behind ‘Rome: Total Realism VII – Fate of Empires’ are back with a new preview featuring the factions of Carthage and Iberia:
«Welcome to the sixth and last of our faction based FOE Previews. To complete our look at the factions featured in the FOE campaign we are reprising our Carthaginian and Iberian friends from TIC. While most of the units will be familiar to you, there are a couple of surprises. One of these, is the late Punic Reform African Infantry Unit.»
Carthaginian Sacred Band Cavalry
As with most RTR previews, this one contains a wealth of historical information on the factions and their units, as well as numerous screenshots and renders. Of the units we get a closer look at my personal favourites are the Sacred Band Cavalry (as seen above) and the Lusitanian Caetrati. You can find the entire preview here.

Field of Battle
RTR is, as its name suggests, a mod (or mods) aimed at making ‘Rome: Total War’ and its expansion pack ‘Barbarian Invasion’ more realistic – but that’s really only the beginning of it, and the changes & improvements are too many to list. If you can’t wait to play FoE after reading through the awesome preview, then I suggest downloading either ‘RTR VI Platinum Edition’ for RTW v1.5, or ‘RTR VII – The Iberian Conflict’ for BI v1.6. Head over to their website or forum to find out more about the mod.
