I had the brilliant idea of turning off ingame music and instead using this:

Most of the TW games have good music. I barely register the soundtrack in this one and am tempted just to listen to my own music.

Fact is, when you choose your own music you listen to it more than something that is enabled per default (aka ingame music).
If you want to enjoy TW music, listen to it :)

Unfortunately, 3/4 Radious's mods are filled with some critical changes I really dont appreciate. Mostly changes that completely annihilate the economical warfare part in favor of the military spamming.

But the one Weren posted is very good. It just tells the AI to better manage his gold and army composition.

I have to agree with you. I installed the whole pack and now battles feel very awkward. Yes, troops are a lot slower now, which i appreciate, but sometimes my clicks are not recognized and the troops never actually charge. They only do so if ordered like a bazillion miles away from the enemy. Anything that's closer than 1 stonethrow turns into some weird slow-charge without javelin throwing.

I like most of Radious mod, but I dont like the one that doubles the number of armies you can have, I like the new army system and the inability to just spam armies.

Could be uncompatible mods  :o  (never seen that bug)

I will try out that radious AI mod but his other mods have too many completely stupid changes mixed in with the good. like archers outranging slings, not only is this unrealistic but archers were already way way more powerful.

however I got DLC on my pirate copy and epirus and carthage on legendary both seem pretty fucking impossible with practically the entire mediteranean at war with you. I don't think you actually need a mod for those factions. try em if you want a challenge.

what I really want to see if some proper balancing, in singleplayer fielding pikes with ballista seems completely unstoppable. ballista aren't that hard to get and aren't that expensive and are the best siege weapons, and way better than any archers. pike formation is completely broken, also easy to get if hellenic. and generally cavalry are pretty terrible even catapracts lose to swords.

maybe i'd have to figure out how to make a mod myself that radious guy seems a bit clueless to me. he actually buffed phallanxs. or maybe CA can pull their finger out their ear.
