Epic Heroes Mod MA game(finished)

[Sir_Dr_D]

Hi. Darrel here. I changed my user name to a nickname I had developed on msn messenger. I will be using this one now.(that is if more then one Dr is allowed on this forum. )

I will be sticking with my current Machaka pretender.( And so everyone is warned, the Immortal Assasin does have a long distance decay attack, which can be deadly to SC's)

Xieter I appreciate what you have done with the epic heroes. They are fun. But I do have some comments.

1) In creating them you should be concerned about making them fun, rather then using them to balance the game. It would be more fun for me if each nation had their hero equal in relative power, rather then some being strong and some being weak. That makes playing a nation with a weak epic boring, and having an epic that can easily clobber everything isn't fun either. And if people want to balance the game they can play with CB, or another balance mod, and epic heroes should be used to have fun heroes in the game. The fact that you use Epic heroes for balance means that a person cannot play with both mods togther.

2) I don't like the idea of these Ulm summons either. Lets never mind the balance between Ulm and other nations, this unbalances everything within ulm itself. Every other unit ulm has, now becomes pointless.Those summoned units become what Ulm is, instead of just being an accessory.

3) Just for other ideas. I have no idea if the following can be modded or not, but as an alternative to having Epic heroes summon allies , you can have them very slowly accumulate allies over time like a VQ gets vampires, or have them start off each battle with a set of extra units like Oni get wolves. As is, why would anybody use the Mictlan hero for anything other then summon Jaguars. If instead of this they got 6 or 7 automatic Jaguar warriors each battle, then you can actually use this epic hero to expand (which is much more heroish and fun). This will also balance the Epic Heroes better among themsleves.


P.S. This Immortal Assasin is fun
