"Rome at War" is a neat Roman-style Mod made by Wildfire Studios in 2002 for the regular AOK (The Conquerors 1.0c). It has its own website (http://www.wildfiregames.com/raw) and is also on AOK Heaven (http://aok.heavengames.com/blacksmith/showfile.php?fileid=5103). I want to use it because there are alot of attractive scenarios made for that Mod.
The Installation Instructions say to use "Mod Pack Studio Lite 2.0", and I don't know if that will work on the Steam version, which has game files in different directories (eg. the Steam folder).
Someone claimed on Reddit last year that it doesn't work on 64 Bit Windows, which computers today like mine commonly use. ("https://www.reddit.com/r/aoe2/comments/b7h194/any_good_mods_that_just_add_a_civilization_andor")
In the Comments section, Vardamir replied: "You can install an akx file like Rome at War with 7zip and some modding knowledge or this tool:http://aok.heavengames.com/blacksmith/showfile.php?fileid=12543"
Vardamir was referring to his tool called Genie Converter that installs "AKX" files, but I don't know if this will work with the AOK HD version.
The AOK Heaven Forum notes that ModDb also has a copy of this Mod uploaded by its Creators:

The Forum thread notes that it is easy to use Mods now with Steam. Steam has its own Mod Program called the "Workshop". I am not sure if this means that Mods have to be in the online Steam Workshop database to install them successfully.
