NEW CLASSICS FACTION is BROKEN

Rimworld's NEW FACTION known as the "Classics" adds new politics, settlements, technology, and scenarios plus topping it off with the "Neron Neolithic" storyteller! Today we explore the mechanics of this mod, accidentally break it (I swear guys, I wasn't even my fault this time). As it turns out, recruiting senators to your side and getting given military grade weaponry by pacifists, is actually pretty good. Enjoy!

“Why did they surrender, they were going to win?”
Says the one with a man wielding futuristic weaponry that uses the thunder of Jupiter to make mens bodies erupt with blood just by pointing it at them.

I think the reason the one corpse in the freezer didn't have a head was because the ravager ate his head off rather than eating your food or meat stockpiles.

This video was a real stab in the back
Didn’t expect it to be here so soon

Romans with SMG's sounds like something from the game "Hard to be a god" which blends a medieval world with future tech

[eluminaryxarrais]

9:04 yeah most people don't know that the Romans invented submachine guns. They were found in an archaeological dig in the 1920s and that's how they got to the modern era

It's not that you "Don't have access" to anything beyond pre-medieval tech, you just can research it yourself. You can still trade for tech goods, get them as rewards, and I think you can bring Rome forward through the tech tree once you get the final perk for uniting the Empire. You can't pick what you get, but I think the random thing can be any random thing.

Roman IED's were surprisingly good, better then even modern ones!

"Our colonists are Caeser, Antony, Cassius, and Brutus."
Well this can't end well for anyone

„We are quite used to stabbing people in the back” and this is one of the few reasons why I love Kleaper

[alduintheanti-dragonborn]

You know what I wish for those with traits that forbids them to fight? That they will actually fight, but they suffer a massive mood debuff instead.

What would the Grim Kleaper be without the VE team? Thanks for the great content as always

Horatius is a legendary Roman legion commander, and the scars might've been from when he kept his ground on a bridge, allowing the Republic to build their defences against invading barbarians!

[CM-NightDK]

when your friends are cassius and brutus you know you are off to a good start

[wazaagbreak-head]

Mod: exists
Grim: it's free exploitastate

[inserisciunnome]

Kepler over here doing Aurelian's work. He'd be so proud of you right now!

[sealessseadog]

just as Jupiter, Juno and Minerva intended

[abyssreborn]

Empire Earth music at the end is highly pogged

How does Vanilla Expanded mod team make mods in so little time?!?

Guns and romans remind me of a series we had on TV in the 90s or maybe late 80s, it was post-apocalyptic but it had been so long since the apocalypse they had reached a classical level of techonology, thank God for public broadcasting services.
