It must be installed on a clean version of RTW, it will not work on a pre modded version of RTW.ġ Download Sicilia installer to your system and run it.Ģ Make a copy of your RTW exe, (right click 'create short cut.')ģ right click over your new short cut, select 'properties'.
Sicilia is contained within it's own mod folder and will not affect your RTW install. This version does come with the 361AD campaign and has as it's default 6 turns per year, RSII environment, ihatemonday and pseudo romanus soundmod, SAI strat cities, SAI strat models. So, I have created an On Line Battle Version which has eliminated all options so that people can be confident that they will have the same version and hence be compatible. Due to all the different options available in SAI such as different campaigns, vegetations, strat models etc, etc, it makes for any online playing extremely difficult as most likely people will have different options installed thus making them incompatible.
