Disciplined Roman legions with formation attack

The goal of WRE/ERE is to restore the glory of Rome, right? Then you would expect real legionaries in late game. Not the faint-hearted who flee as soon as their general dies. And what's more likely, they fought in formation or ran to the enemy as a disorganized loose mob?

We put an end to this shameful display and give the roman legions and Palatina line the disciplined trait and formation attack. An organized attack, that's the Roman spirit.

This mod has an effect on the in-game Legio Comitatensis, Eastern Armoured Legio, Palatina, Protectores Domestici, Armigeri Defensores and Herculiani Serniores. Also on mod-units Winter Desert Legion and Legionay Cohort (made by Ghorza and Bladeuk, the edited versions are in my workshop). The Elite Palatina are not included, since they are shock troops and an orderly formation does not fit their role on the battlefield. Besides, in my other mod they already have the Wedge formation for attack.

This mod works with almost every other mod and is save game compatible. Only group attributes are changed.


Other mods that bring formation attack in the game also add this automatically to barbarian and eastern units. By using a unique attribute, this mod gives it to Roman units only. This is more historically adequate, although some elite barbarian units used formations (you'll find a few in my mod Roman Formations for more interesting battles). Use this mod with Roman Formations and you have a nice combination of abilities, attributes and formations.

In vanilla, when an attack order is given in Shield Wall formation the unit simply runs to the enemy for a disorderly melee fight. With this mod the unit keeps formation while attacking and fighting. Although there is no direct bonus, less soldiers will get isolated in melee fight. Overall a unit in formation is less vulnerable.


Disciplined is a trait (called attribute), the Shield Wall is an ability (but called formation on the forums) and when attacking units can stay in formation (keep organized). 'In formation' is not a real formation, it means that they approach and fight the enemy in an organized way, keep their position.

When you give a unit in Shield Wall formation an attack order they will stay in formation but not in Shield Wall. A game problem and that's why I made this mod.

Why so complicated? Some players want to know what's happening in the game :-)


Don't worry, push the green formation buttons and/or give an attack order and automatically they will stay organized.
