Does any member of this esteemed community of wargaming librarytarians have experience with mods for E:TW?
I think the map, while nice to look at, could do with some more provinces and since Stainless Steel, Europa Barbarorum and more really added to experience of previous TW versions, I thought even this Steam-infested game might have some decent ones. The Total War Centre confuses me.

ETW was/is very mod-hostile, afaik there are no mods that has been able to change the map in any way. Most of them have just some changed artwork of units, though some of them have modified the gameplay, but not in any revolutionary way such as SS or EB did.
I played the Darth Mod for a while. It was suppose to improve the AI. I don't know if it did though. I did notice that the Poland had something like 30 Bishops running around on the campaign map. Slowed everything down. I think the AI stilled used the tried and true tactic of "everyone bunch up in a ball and run at the center of the enemy line". That's better then the tactics of previous patches which involved mostly standing a field and being shot in the back while looking at the sky.
