Triple Post... I guess I will mention here that Tarth and Umber Mages are now called Druids and Shamans respectively. Tarth is now quite unique with all their cool new stuff. Umber is coming along. I might at some time add in some more tactical spells as I really think this game is missing interesting ones early game.

Updated to v0c. -Bug and Balance Fixes -AI tweaks and new unit designs. Many of my old ones weren't being used due to a coding error. -Hergons and Stalker mounts now have saddles. -Added Darkned Vests and Assassin's cloaks for Hashaini. -Added new trait for Tarth and Umber, Naturalism. It replaces fire staffs with nature staffs which do poison damage and can cast Nature's Call. [quote who="Nightmurderer03" reply="10" id="3442547"]*Qu
Been working on this over my break. Lots of AI tweaks, especially for the Undead. Also have added 4-5 new units for every faction. To me anyway, I get little feedback, it seems like the AI is much better in the areas I have improved. It keeps up with me in tech and improvement building sometimes even getting ahead. With these new units it is also building some very tough armies. However it's armies tend to sit around and do nothing even though there bases are filled with monsters.

I have been playing a bunch of games lately to test my mods and one of the big things that stands out is how sometimes the AI gets stuck because it runs out of places to build cities, in a way humans don't. Sometimes they just get stuck behind a barren land and it basically kills them via strangulation. This is because a smart player can use Birth of Summer or even just plan ahead and expand their ZoC to fertilize land. For obvious reasons these approaches are way to complicated for the A

Your capital gets a 10% gold bonus for every caravan. Economic treaties are basically vestigial and exist solely so you can attack or spy on other players.
FH is really not a complicated game. There are a few things that aren't spelled out like how champions split xp but other then that it's fairly simple.
[quote who="Apheirox" reply="31" id="3441099"]The problem with that is it still doesn't make them playable on large maps. The Dead's problem is they currently [barely] work only when placed in close proximity to other factions where they can start warring immediately. If you want to introduce a concept like souls they'd at least have to also gain souls from [some] monsters kills. I agree that it would be a shame to have them become similar to the other factions; my solution was si

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="28" id="3441103"]One upcoming change is that minster lairs are getting their own Zoc. You will need to take them out before you can build near them.[/quote] [e digicons]:rofl:[/e] Lol. I remember this being requested in the FE beta if not before. I had long given up hope of it happening. Thanks Stardock!

I would rather not see the Undead become more like other factions and get a spell like corruption or scrying pools. The entire point of them is that they are supposed to be fueled by kills and those fixes would change that. Instead I would rather see a system where the undead get a resource like Souls or something from kills instead of directly getting population and then they would use Souls to build special growth improvements or spells. That way they they are still powered by kills but the
I think the only way you can give factions unique quests is through giving them items that create quests. No you can't be immune to death magic as it is not a damage type. You can be immune to fire because all fire spells do fire damage but death spells do many different things.
Thanks Nightmuderer03, I will look into all that stuff. Meanwhile have a pic of the new Undead Faction Screen.
The Undead traits I came up with are as follows... Hollow: + 5 Dodge, + 10 Ranged Dodge. Not original I know. Plague Carrier: Attacking or being attacked by this unit poisons you for 1-2 damage every turn. Dark Link: Restores 1/3 of health for 15 mana. I have also thrown in a small growth of 1-2 on the undead pop buildings so they don't stall. I also removed Undying Curse as a trainable trait and added the ability to build graveyards on grain
Below is a link to a page describing a scenario I started back before LH even came out. Every once and while I have put a bit more work into it and the example I have thre is very out of date. I'm just finishing up my second map of the scenario but getting the AI to act smart is annoying... Anyway this is way on my back burner and might never see the light of day. https://forums.elementalgame.com/440136/
Here is a little preview of the unique Dead monster, the Bone Golem. It can harvest the bones of other units granting it 30 health on kills and the ability to consume allies for 30 health. Now I need to come up with some traits for the Dead.
The first beta, v0a, is out. I would really appreciate any feedback on bugs or balance people can give me. I am looking for everything from this monster is to tough, this trait doesn't work, to this team builds too many archers to be a threat. Thanks for the interest Abob101. [e digicons]^_^[/e]
This mod is a compilation of some of my other work plus some unique stuff. It started off with me throwing around a bunch of ideas for unique racial traits to make the units every faction can design much more unique. After working on my AI mod and sorting through all the default units anyway I ended up just making a version of that mod where I added in a bunch of the new traits to the custom u
The next Elemental game sounds fun. Overall I found LH to be a good game but not a excellent one. It's strengths were: -A solid city building system with excellent city specialization. -Lots of interesting lore and monsters. -Solid tactical combat. -Lots of well differentiated champions and items. -Lots of stuff to do with champions early game. It's weaknesses were: -Basica
