    Right, but he's just saying that ranged units had inherent weaknesesses (like ammo) that they don't in the game, so we have to compensate for this (not necessarily add logistics to the game).

    They have weak armour, so I mean drawback is there.

    Now I do know that the supposed counter for slingers is skirmishers but the skirmishers are slaughtered  unless you have a 3 to 1 or even 5 to 1 odds or some siege weapons supporting your men. But if the slingers have support such as basically  any other unit then your screwed.

    Let's say : Brits and Gauls don't need to spare stone for building barracks and temples. So yes, there's a difference as they can go full slinger spam.   And Brits can even start make slingers as early as P1.  

    well yeah but so does athens and i've seen recently less celts. And if you need that much stone then mine it its not that hard.

    The main issue with ranged units in RTS in general is that they have unlimited ammo. While in real life an army need supply and logistics.

    It would be pointless to implement that it would really complicate the game. Plus adding possibly hours of time to every game.

    @JamesWright the name has to start with the letter X, otherwise it would a lot easier.

    Why not name it X.:wallbash:

    Here are some Latin words:   xenium, xenii means gift, xenodochus, xenodochi means one who receives strangers,  There was an  Xeres who was  son of Darius, King of Persia 485-465 BC, I know that someone said something about Persian names(this is in Latin) but maybe it could work.

    I think its should be focused maybe on something not many people know about which in turn makes then want to look it up and therefore they learn something, like my previous suggestion even though I probably butcherd the name.

    And she checks a lot of boxes for all the politically correct people out there. :)

    I would like to add more economy base buildings such as foundries which could generate metal, and maybe more passive generating resource buildings. Also game balancing isn't my best skill so most of what i'm currently working on for the mod is mostly experimental. 

    There is alot that i'm still learning, but maybe we could collaborate in the future.

    Thanks, I thought I would have had this out last month, but I figured I release something more polished and less rushed so things are taking longer. This mod is also a project i'm doing on my free time so in one week things can move fast or come to a halt. -_-

     

    More factions will be added, but which one's im not sure. At the moment three is all I can handle right now. 

    Well I totally understand how hard it can be to do on the side, cause bleep happens and takes time away and you have done an amazing  job for a free time activity.

    Thank you for answering my question and keep up the work I know for sure I can't do what you've done.(y)

    Structure cost should be unified between civs

    That would be very bad, some civs need to be different to have certain advantages and disadvantages leaving diverse building costs makes some civs have advantage like especially the ptolemies who have no house cost because they need fast pop growth to make metal production cause you need metal unless you want an army of women and sprearmen/pikeman.
