Has Ancient Empires released? Is it expected over this weekend?
Is this an HOI4 mod?

^I was going to leave it to you to recommend DeI since I have only read about it but never used it.

I will add, Rome has a more challenging start in that mod !

What in your opinion is the best mod for Rome 2 and for Attila?

DEI for Rome 2 is good, but it changes the gameplay.  You'll want to read up on the new mechanics beforehand.

I've not used Radious mods since Napoleon TW, only checking out their change lists on occasion.  I consider them cheats since they make the campaign side of TW easier, but if that's something you want then go for it.

Ancient Empires is a mod for Attila TW that moves the timeline back to 200 BC - 200 AD.

Isn't that still an unfinished work-in-progress?

^Its beta. I just watched some let's play vids and instantly reinstalled Attila to get the mod. Looks outstanding.

  Speaking of Necrophobiaitis mods -- here's Attila 1212.  This is the defense of Toledo in 1212 by me as Easy Castile on Easy with an Easy Castile Mod.  Still (as seen here) one of my catapults ran out of ammo and it was raining and it took a good 10 minutes to rally the locals and drive off the irate nobles with the help of the Knights of Santiago no less.

  And the Emir's apparently slightly Jewish household cavalry troops collide in the woods near Granada with dismounted Knights of Santiago, who look pretty surprised though they were the ambushing party:

Oooooooo! This looks interesting. I never really cared for Attila's content. I got it in the hopes it cleaned up some of Rome2's problems, which it did somewhat. All I need now is a mod that takes it back to the ancient Mediterranean. Is this it?

Nice screenshots, MengJiao!  The 1212 AD mod is really something else.  The only reason I haven't played more of it is because of all the other games (including TW games) I already have on my plate.  I very much look forward to seeing further development on it (bring on the Crusades, College of Cardinals, and Mercenaries!).

  The big mods I know about are 1212 (which starts in 1212 AD) and the Ancient Mod which seems to sort of cover Rome II's chronological space sort of...I guess you could wonder why 1212?  But it is sort of the middle of the Middle Ages so it makes a kind of generic sense.  Oh and the Mongols turn up which is always sort of nice, I guess...if you are in Spain and they are far far away.

  Thanks!  Visually, 1212 is a pretty fine mod.  I like the slightly more chunky less shiny look that things have at least in Spain.  There's also an amazing number of factions and France apparently lost at Bouvines (it's now 1214 so that makes some sense.)  There are some Crusader states still hanging on and the Pope (Honorious III it seems) wants me to take Cairo.  The French are gone so its up to me apparently.  Little does the Pope suspect that the Italian Communes are going to back me if he gets nasty.
