  1. It has been tested and proven that having <5 very strong units is never a problem and is a fun addition to the boring cs spam. but the number is always the problem. The hero is incredibly strong as an unit but nobody complains, because it is alone. The same applied for fire Cav in A25 and spear champ now. 5 ultra op spear cav can't completely break the game but 40 just slightly above-average merc sword cav broke A25
  2. This was exactly what we had back in a23 and also what I have been suggesting all the time. Borg has it in the right direction. The champion spam problem didn't exist before A25 because of the production building limit.
  3. Oh no pls don't add it to A28 You can mod in whatever way you want, but adding to the base game is a different story. Firstly who will make the patch and whether the patch will be approved is another story. Secondly this feature, if activated accidentally, can be disastrous. Tests have shown that my own micro is better than this selectionbox targeting even though I would have to click hundreds of times.
  4. How to boom with the Persians! The late game was not worth showing, but the boom was epic. Another match featuring Tom 0AD and JagsusIndia talking in the background:
  5. Not risky at all if you know what you are doing. If you want dual boot, install Windows first, then shrink up your disk partition in "create and format partitions" tool, then install Linux on the freed disk sectors. This is because the handicapped Windows installer cannot create and resize disk partitions without destroying everything... Regarding the choice of Linux distribution, LInux Mint is a beginner friendly OS but its 0ad package is outdated, you will either get A26 or need some long-winded way to get the latest release. That's why I recommended Endeavour OS, as it uses pacman and is always giving you the latest updates. It's totally up to you.
  6. No no no Slings are Not Op. The problem is, every civ is lacking some vital units. Romans lack long ranged units, so anybody with long range units can exploit their weakness by sniping. On the other hand , the archer civs have only long range but no DPS so they crumble despite sniping. I had Ptolemies (especially) and Brits in mind. The ptols can delay the Romans with their pikes, then the slings can just snipe all Javs. Romans have 0 chance. They can't run from the slings. Seleucids will lose all with KD 0.2 against ptolemies if sniped. Brits and Persians can also snipe Javs with slings. The testudo formation does not prevent your from being sniped. If you play Vs Petra then you are safe. Petra cannot snipe
  7. Seems like it's not. Windows 7 is a dead OS of the past. My sincere recommendation is to install an easy Linux distribution, e.g Endeavour OS. Wipe out your old hard drive and you will see so much performance improvement. 0ad also has no problems on it. If you are a hardcore windows fan, install win11 then inject atlas os into it.
  8. On paper yes, but no archers and no slingers = you will get sniped and loose all in seconds
  9. But the trees, the berries, the hunt... Can't see unless I replace their meshes and skins with some GUI mod Too much messy grass on the ground... Need GUI mod to clean it up! thats what GUI mods are for. Idk why automation is a part of this. Automation mechanisms will touch simulation so it's not a pure GUI mod anymore
  10. This I cannot be sure. But personally I enjoyed A23 singleplayer the most, because back then, the AI games were sufficiently difficult and strategically interesting due to different mechanics. Furthermore, it had the biggest variety of mods available. A25 is of a more modern style, very similar to what you have in A27 right now. You can first try A25 then move back to A23; there are many interesting mods available for both versions. I think this has existed for longer than I have been player, probably one of the very early alphas. But before A25, the blacksmith (forge) upgrades were less prominent due to cost and limited efficiency. Infantry and cavalry had separate upgrades and nobody bothered to research everything. Maybe try A23 or A22.
  11. You should try Leif's historical rebalance mod! Link to github attached in video description:
  12. Vous pouvez les télécharger ici: http://releases.wildfiregames.com/
  13. Kill counts are stacking up! 1511 kills on Pyrenean Sierra:
  14. In A27, any sane player won't rush you before your cavalry finishes the chickens (2:30), so you can do scouting with your cav afterwards. If you are up against Romans. Macedon or Han then you need to beware of the starting with 3 melee cavs strat. But the damage of this kind of suicidal attacks is limited and it can be defended quite easily.
