Campaign:

-Romans are more agressive (Scipii are at war the carthage)
-Greek and egyptian forts are diferent
-Watchtower are now villages
-All civilized factions (except Thrace) have deceres (recrutable in last port upgrade) (you can make them more expensive if you want)
-Numidia faction becomes the Kingdom of Petra (numidian old cities became rebel and the following: Palmyrae; Petra; Bostra became nabataean)
-Some buildings have new functions and effects in military and economy
-Rebel faction becomes stronger
-New mercenary units
-The factions behavior in the East is diferent almost every new campaign
-The nabataean culture remains carthaginian in the east cities but you can change the faction creator (when changing the faction creator of the old numidian settlements you will have to change the names of the rebel characters from eastern names to any you want of numidian or carthaginian, the list of names is in the descr_names.txt)
-Some faction have an overload of units (you can delete some of them in order to have more gaps to fill with new ones)
-I didn't place every single sprite there so the new units may have weird sprites. You can correct them with some more look alike

I'm so sorry I made waste your time to install the mod. You must have a copy of your rome total war original folder with version 1.5. Then you install alexander expansion in that folder, only then you put all those files that I mentioned in your Data file of the rome total war and not in the alexander data. The alexander is only necessary to run properly the mod.
