There's nothing wrong with his graphics.

They already are.
There are currently two Lords of Fertility, one naked and one not. "There can only be one"
Heh, now we have three topics going
1. This thread is/isn't insulting and should be about modding instead.
2. The world against Norfleet/why there must be crap units/themes/pretenders
3. The original topic.
In response to #1, I didn't mean it in any malicious way, if the Moderators want to change the topic name, go ahead. Personally, I think you're too sensitive. BTW, I would make a mod if I knew anything about mod-making and, what would it be, computer science? I just graduated from Middle School, so don't expect much genius computer-wise from me.
In response to #2, I'm a firm believer in "different but equal" (and this is for game balancing, not segregation) way of making a game. This might not be true for the devs, and I'm not trying to force my ways on them, but I don't think any unit should be blatantly better than another. Man's longbowmen pack a significantly better punch than the shortbowmen most other nations get, but they're also more expensive to balance it out. Crossbows take out heavy armor, but they're balanced by being slow to reload and expensive in resources. All are different, but to say that one is better than another is an iffy statement at best.
To add to #3, I would make searching magic Messages go to the province instead of commander. Right now, it feels like "you have found 2 magic sites in Cun Aral, zoom in to C'tis?"
I would also give the Infernal forces series - I know this applies to Frost Fiends, but I haven't looked into the others - more bang for the buck. Right now, summoning a single demon is more economical than a horde, and time shouldn't be the only thing saved in such an advanced spell.
I'll try to be more diplomatic the next time around.
