Mod: Cinggis Qayan, Wrath of the Khans 3 eras -- Update 6

[kennydicke]

Hail,

Globu

Now for a monster of a sprite: the Mongolian Mammoth. (Ancient mammoth? Siberian Mammoth?)

While a mammoth might be a slightly better choice for the relative area, I chose to go with Mastodons - an animal uncovered in vanilla. Thanks for the sprite - I dig it!

The archer, particularly the attack sprite, is just darn awesome.

I agree; Globu outdid himself there.

I've been following the progress of this mod for awhile now and have some feedback.

Thank you!

Tenger (Hero) has 7A. Seems pretty high?

I forgot the boost variable - was supposed to be 3 - fixed.

Shudkers in PD have no leaders and rout.

Oops, forgot to add death mage to PD - fixed.

The description for the spell Kharash cuts off.

Fixed.

MA starts with too large a gem income.

A holdover from spell testing - fixed.

MA Ugadans are not priests, but seem like they should be?

I removed holy magic from them awhile back, I had meant to make them priestesses again - fixed.

Khan cannot summon allies like I think he's supposed (#makemonster2 "Kheshig") to?

He used to, but now he won't - removed.

Also, Erlik displays strange behavior with his domsummons. When in normal form, he domsummons soulless and everything's fine. In bear form, he domsummons spirits and a non-leader Grigori that's inactive in combat? It also generates multiple "The Grigori has disappeared in a puff of smoke" messages.

I woefully under-tested EA, sorry - fixed.

Khan pretender also only summons 1 of the two listed domsummons. I don't think you can have more than one domsummon with the same value.

It seemed like it worked before, but it definitely doesn't work now - fixed.

EA suffers heavily from having both domkill and domturmoil. I really don't think they're powerful enough to justify both, particularly the turmoil.

Agreed; they were more for flavor than anything - removed.

Summon Shudkher is wickedly broken.

Upon further testing - agreed.

10 slaves is a steal just for 5 RP. While you have to pay upkeep on it, it's a better deal than a lot of your other mages, depending on the era. Of course, you also get an 80% shot at a B3 mage, a 40% shot at a D3 and a one in three chance of a B3D3. As for the 10% that come out as total whittles? Well, someone has to lead the dozen kickarse Sholmoses you get as part of the deal. The spell would be a deal at probably three times the price and should also probably have a research level increase since you're getting a nice mage commander along with the troops.

Feedback reviewed, assimilated, and regurgitated - changes made.

All in all, it's a really fun mod. I've been enjoying the horse-horde feel and think that there's a ton of goodness already present with more to come. Great work.

Thank you very much!


Redeyes

Air has the path-number one, so I guess the idea was to give Tenger 1 of path number 7?

It was supposed to be A3 - a coding mistake on my part. I rush myself too much, and get sidetracked.

I am a fan of your ideas Kennydicke and I will definitely take a closer look very soon

Thank you very much, too!


I'll upload the updated/fixed mod immediately after this post.

Later
