После очень долгого перерыва в работе над историческим модом Aut Caesar, aut nihil автор вновь с 13.12.2025 года стал выкладывать обновления, начиная с версии 1.0.0.4. Причем в steam и на nexus поддержка мода была прекращена. Огромное количество изменений в новых версиях (см. ниже) сделало этот мод достойным открытия новой темы.
На сегодняшний день актуальна версия приключений во времена правления Нерона Aut Caesar aut nihil v1.0.1.0 (от 03.01.2026)

Для корректной работы колесниц необходим запуск мода через WSE2.

            Final dialogue with Nero, Poppaea, Tigellinus, Antonia, and GOY
            Player decides their fate:

                Player must fight the First Battle of Bedriacum:
                    Either Antonia or Poppaea holds a speech, or none
                    If player sided with Antonia or Poppaea, they appear after the battle

Civil War:
    Player gets a timer to prepare for the final battle (Battle of Bedriacum)
    General:
        During civil war, Romans switch faction if their faction has no town or castle
        Civil war leaders commit suicide if their faction is defeated
        Romans can switch factions of the same culture (only between civil war factions)
        Ensure civil war factions are constantly at war with each other
        Civil war factions will not declare new wars
        Civil war factions will not join allies, but rather drop them
        If all civil war factions are defeated, event ends the civil war and all Romans switch to the winner faction
        Troops of civil war Emperors:
            If Rome conquered > custos corporis and gladiators
            Else:
                Vespasian: Arab and Egyptian mercs
                Otho: Germanic mercs
                Vitellius: Gladiators and Cretan mercs
                Galba: Hispanic mercs
    If a civil war faction captures a settlement of a province with a governor from another Roman faction, no governor is appointed
    Governorships of senatorial provinces do not expire
    Nero, Poppaea, Otho, Vitellius, Vespasian, or Galba are unkillable during main story (if captured)
    If player is not involved in civil war at all, Rome splits between Otho, Vitellius, Vespasian, or Galba anyway
    Once the civil war starts, the Batavi can revolt in Germania Inferior (if under Roman control; else revolt when it becomes Roman)

Summary of Other Changes:
Optional Font:
    In Optional/, a new optional font by Lanjane
Sandbox Campaign Option:
    Royal sandbox: start as faction leader

Government:
    Imperial and feudal government types

    Cohort management screen for towns/castles; player can donate and withdraw cohorts
    Towns have townwatch paid by the town (first 4 cohorts); otherwise town lord pays upkeep
    Add mercenary retinues
    For non-Romans, max number of regiments depends on centralization
    For non-Romans there are 3 regiment types: levies, lordly retinue, royal retinue
    Player hires military units (cohorts); units can be refreshed; number of cohorts depends on rank
    If player has a military rank:
        Recruit from the legion he commands
        Recruit from the auxiliary unit he commands
        No upkeep costs (paid by Roman treasury)
    If player is governor:

        With honorary title or office (governor, legate) you may be accused of corruption

Politics:
    Diplomacy policies:
        Aristocracy impacts town wealth and base income of lords (higher aristocracy > higher base income, lower town wealth)
        Troop quality:
            Better quality > higher probability of improved weapons; higher wages
            Lower quality > worse weapons
    Influence:

        Doing quests for lords grants influence
        Gain influence via lover (no cost; probability to fail depends on requested amount)
    Roman service:
        Invitation to join campaign only if military rank
        Player can leave service anytime; rank restored; can rejoin via Nero
        Without governorship/rank, player is a Roman noble and can receive offers or join as high-rank officer
        Becoming a noble: rise through low ranks or gain renown/wealth; then offers become available
    Marshal election changed:
        Faction leaders decide; ordered by relation, controversy, renown, party size

    Piety changes by:

        Hosting games
        Winning divine challenges
        Winning Olympics (uses Jupiter/Zeus as deity)
        Building temples in latifundia or settlements
        Raiding holy sites lowers piety (halved if player has different culture)
        Sacrifices to disliked gods reduce piety
        Switching to a god disliked by faction reduces piety
        Dionysus events cause massive piety drop
        1 piety per 5 cattle sacrificed
    Effects of piety:
        Low piety: lose renown; lose relation with lords
    Piety decreases over time
    Losing piety hurts more at high piety; gaining piety has diminishing returns at high piety
    Miracles in battles: for each 10 piety, probability increases by 1% up to 50%
    Sacrifice cutscene
    Lords/Ladies react to player piety

Шикарный мод. Единственное "узкое" место, на мой взгляд, полноценная игра возможна только за римлянина. Хотелось бы большей вариативности. Кстати, порадовал вот такой плакат

Anchero, Согласен, мод обалденный. И я сейчас обновил карточку до версии Aut Caesar aut nihil v1.0.1.4 (от 21.02.2026). Не знаю пойдут ли старые сохранения.

Выглядит очень колоритно, правда, текстуры и некоторые модельки смотрятся так, как будто их без изменений взяли из Roma Surrectum2 еще на первый Рим Тотал Вар. А так, пока что один из самых интересных проектов под такой антураж, наряду с 467 AD. Кто-нибудь пробовал его уже на предмет оптимизации и возможности больших битв? Если дружина ярла или отряд феодала под возможности старенького движка подходили нормально, то вот "Легион" из 200 человек смотрится довольно куцо. Насколько там реализуемы замесы на 600 человек, которые показали в трейлере?
