  1. Tnx u feedback gordooo!!! Play some more games and see if something needs to be changed xD
  2. At first I thought of both as archers counter, I lowered the damage of the slinger somewhat in relation to the javelins, so that both in combat could equal (havelins vs slings). But I think it would be interesting to change that bonus to some different unit. This would be interesting mainly for athens and britons, since already have an archers counter (cav javelins). Any suggestion? About hans, I have plans to implement them in the next version, maybe next month. Along with many new things.
  3. Well what matters now is that we have a good foundation that seems to work very well.
  4. Tnx for u feedback Surely we will play many games still.
  5. I put attack hack for all melee, pierce for all ranged and crush dmg only for catapults and rams (siege tower and bolts have pierce dmg). In the vanilla sperman have pierce dmg too, slings crush dmg, this is very confusing for players and also makes it very difficult to balance. So I preferred to create such a base, cleaner and easier to understand and balance.
  6. Tnx for feedback Bonus to archers are important, they have a huge range, so if we remove that bonus, we have to give them a higher dps, which would make the op unit, since there are several units to contain them. Maybe we could work with some other counters, I accept suggestions.
  7. Exactly. I and feldfeld talked about it, it could be a problem if the first four soldiers were killed, so we decided to enable women to build barrack/stable/range.
  8. In the sense of composition of the weapons, yes, it has logic, but in isolated units I do not see much sense. What really matters is the type of strategy used in the field. What I mean is that, on the one hand, we have the Iphicrates and their light weaponry knocking down all heavy / light infantry, on the other hand we also have the great alexandre and its pikemen knocking down the entire Persian heavy / light army. Anyway I forgot to mention, that elephants have an advantage against cavalry in this mod, you reminded me.
  9. There is no logic or historical context in any counter system, this does not exist in real life haha, it is only necessary for the game. Elephant is considered a "cavalry", if spearman have bonus vs elephants why spearman cav no? Tnx for feedback xD
  10. Needs to be accepted by @Itms. Why u cant manual?
  11. Tnx for feedback xD There is always something to be changed, but for now small details.
  12. Tnx for feedback xD. I'm studying all this at the moment and more. I have good plans for version 2.0. But it needs to be studied very carefully, because if it is implemented to the original game, then it must have the support of the devs.

  14. First I want to say that it was a great pleasure to work on this mod. I have a lot of affection and respect for this game, where many people work hard to give us some fun. 0a.d has already provided me with hours of fun and I felt compelled to give back a little of it. Were long 7 months of much work, really most people do not know how much this is laborious. You need to always have new ideas, do and redo many things, look at historical context, test, test and test, and of course, have people available to help you in this process. Tnx @Angen @Lion.Kanzen @Stan` @ValihrAnt @Feldfeld @Stockfish @wowgetoffyourcellphone. Well, this will be the last version (1.0.5) of the mod for the current version a23b. Just a version to fix something if necessary. Nothing new will be added. From now on the whole work will be focused on the a24 version, where together with @elexis we will review the mod so that if so accepted by the developers, it can be implemented to the a24. The main goal of the mod was to bring players and the community a better experience of gameplay/balance within what the game can offer in the current state of development. It is perceived by everyone that gameplay has been "stalled" for some time, so that was my focus. As I mentioned before, even though many resources are lacking due to the current state of development, it is possible to do much more with what we have now. I want to make it clear here that the changes made in the mod have always respected the main pillars and design documents (just changed what was really needed for the balancing to work). Major changes/Features - Added counter system; - General balancing of all units and buildings; - Gameplay slightly different for each civilization; - Reformulation of current techs/auras/bonuses/teambonus; - New bonuses/auras. - New buildings/units/technologies for the respective civilizations; - New upgrades to units/buildings; - New icons; - Mercenary champions units now has icons with yellow color. - Civil centre can train only women (some exceptions); - All mercenaries cost only metal; - Units promoted has no gather penalty; - Deactivated the animation of promotion (units do not take damage while celebrating); - Hero after death can not be trained again; - Dead animals lost food; - Domestic animals can fatten; - Increased number of icons available on the panel; - Women can build all buildings; - Promotion (advanced/elite rank) gives +10% health, +1 armour, +20% attack +1 capture attack, +20% loot, vision range for all soldiers. Healers gain +5 heal range and +2 heal/HP. Counter System The system I chose to work on is simple and easy to set up for casual players or pro players. Spearmen/Pikemen bonus against Cavalry/Elephant; Archer/Slinger bonus against Melee Infantry; Skirmisher bonus against Archer/Slinger; Swordsmen all-round; The same applies to Cavalry. Cavalry Spearmen bonus against Cavalry/Elephant; Cavalry Archer bonus against Melee Infantry; Cavalry Skirmisher bonus against Archer/Slinger; Cavalry Swordsmen all-round. To many changes such example: to each quarter built by a Macedonian player, gain a free pikemen. Macedonian is the only civilization that can train pikemen in village phase. Sparta is a civilization focused on melee units and the only can train champions on village phase. These and many more changes can only be seen with details in the technological tree. Please, give your feedback, this is important. The latest version is not yet downloadable by mod.io, it is waiting authorization.

  15. Mod will be available tomorrow, I just need it before that icon
  16. I searched in dalenda a23 and apparently does not have.
  17. Hey guys!!! I am working on a mod, and I am adding this cavalry to the Persians, but it has the same icon of the other champion cavalry, could anyone help me with this? Tnx so much!!!
  18. I hope to see you soon, tnx for hours of fun!!!
  19. In my patch siege rams has only pierce dmg, no bonus vs bulding, it's just a mobile tower.
  20. Just choose the panel you want to work, example: selection_panels_right. So you have some mumbers there that you can change, example 3 3 100% 100%, If my memory is good, have 6 sequences like this. I did not need to change "%"numbers just the two numbers to the left. basically one is for the size of the other icons for the size of the background, and the others are for targeting the icons and blackground. So you make small changes and adjust as you want.
  21. Hey guys, i did it!!! with the help of some guys (Stan, Angen, bb_ and Face) we can do it, tnx again. to increase the number of icons you want, is in sessions/selection_panels_right >> <repeat count="24">, change for the number of u want. Now in sessions/selection_panels in line 214, u need change return 24 - getNumberOfRightPanelButtons(); for same value that you chose in <repeat count="24">. this is for panel construction, if you want to change another panel, the change should be in another panel obviously. I hope this helps everyone.
  22. Is very beautiful wowgetoffyourcellphone. But as a good player, I wish see the civilization of the players.
  23. Hey guys, how are u? Well, i add some structures in my patch, like stables, archery ranges and others. But i have a problem, some icons are not showing, because of the size of the interface and the amount of icons, could you help me with this? I can decrease the size of the icons, but I think this is not the best solution. I tried to make the changes in sessions/sessions but a small change create huge bugs. Tnx!!!
