Red face Re: New nation : Shangri La, Hidden City of the Secret Masters

Well, in fact, the Rta Pa resources cost is 44, my mistake .

I was hesitating about the Crossbowman, he'll move to LA .

The problem is that the nation is based on Tibetan armies. they had quite heavy infantry, and light infantry too, so I guess i'll remove the medium infantry.

About armaments, I may change Falchion for broadswords, for some troops, because I just found examples of tibetan sword with a straight blade.

I think I'll keep the sacred troops, but for a higher cost (about 60 gp each).

About mages covering all magic paths, the problem is thematic : tibetan lamas and sorcerers have the reputation of being VERY powerful. Tibetans seems to be obsessed by sorcerers. And demons. And curses. And sorcery . So, I think I'll keep the diversity, but reduce the levels of most mages. And rise their cost.

Oh, and most of them are old, it's just that i forgot to mention it. Ngagspa aren't old because they have Nature magic. Hidden Masters aren't old either because they are meant to be superior & enlightened beings (and some of them are old nevertheless...). Not all Demon-Hunters are old, but some are (because of Fire magic). There are Mi Gö mages, too, but they are cap only, and not so powerfil. Their main interest is that they are water mages (they have Water 1).

And, YES, I want this nation to be thematic, but I also want it to be the more balanced possible.

Thanks for your advice, and be lenient, please , it's my very first mod !
