After that IвЂ™ve modded a lot for Medieval II before jumping into Rome II.Д¬A: What was your initial motivation behind getting into modding? Has that motivation changed over time?Дresden: Initially, there were simply some things in Rome II that I wanted to change so I began to investigate how mods worked and what some of the modders at the time were doing. I had seen a few tutorials and as me and my friends from high school were doing Rome: Total War tournaments, I modded factions to have units and mechanics that suited our individual playstyles. KAM: Modding for me started around 2006-2007, at that point I was already using mods but hadnвЂ™t tweaked much stuff myself.

I had a strong desire to bring some of the changes from the historical Rome mods into this newer game.

Suffice to say, I had to pick up my jaw from the floor when the trailer ended.Д¬A: When did you first start to mod Total War?Дresden: I first started modding when Rome II was released. While the screenshots in articles looked great, seeing everything in motion showed such a huge jump in the quality of strategy games. I didnвЂ™t have internet at that point so my only knowledge of the game came from gaming magazines. One of my most memorable moments was when I first saw the trailer for Rome: Total War on TV.

KAM: My story with the Total War series started in 2001 with first Shogun game. I fell in love with the games all over again when I got immersed in mods like Europa Barbarorum or Stainless Steel. The second would be the first time I discovered mods and what they could bring to replayability and depth in games like Rome and Medieval II. Being able to team up in battles and carve out an empire with a buddy is simply great fun. The first is playing Shogun 2 with my friend. I have many memorable moments from all the franchises but two stand out. The answer would also include a lot of the community, who has helped shaped the mod with their feedback and critiques.Д¬A: How long have you been playing Total War games, and whatвЂ™s your most memorable moment?Дresden: I have been playing Total War games since the first Shogun game.

Unfortunately, if I named all the testers and people who have helped create DEI it would take up most of this blog. However, we have Litharion as our scripting guru, Ritter-Floh, Don Diego and Ahiga on our unit and texture team, and other members like Greek_Strategos, Ivan, FlashHeart, and Augustusng. Currently KAM and I head up most of the mod work, with him focusing on our battle systems. We have had many modders come and go, even most of the original founders.

It has been an international team of dedicated modders, artists and testers since its beginning almost five years ago. I originally planned to jump into the DEI team as sort of a community manager, but I eventually ended up as the main combat design lead and researcher.Д¬A: Who else is вЂ“ or has been вЂ“ on the DEI team over the years?Дresden: Many, many people have contributed to DEI over the years. KAM: And my name is Kamil, more often known as KAM 2150, and I was born and raised in Poland. I primarily focus on the campaign side of things. I am one of the original four founders of DEI still actively modding, and I currently head the mod team as the development lead. We know that a lot of you like playing Total War: ROME II with the Divide Et Impera mod so we wanted to reach out to the DEI team to understand the minds behind the mod and discuss whatвЂ™s next for them as well as a peek at some of our modding developments.Д¬A: First off, please introduce yourself and tell us what you do in the DEI team.Дresden: My name is Judson, but most people in the community know me as Dresden, and IвЂ™m from the USA. At Creative Assembly, weвЂ™re always impressed with the creative work from the Total War modding community.
