The Tourmaline mod seems to be missing some stuff. It crashes when I try to make a pretender.

Please PM me with details. What pretender? Do you get a crash message? Do you have any other mods enabled? In particular, CBM will definitely cause crashes while using the tourmaline mod as it incorporates cbm into it.

You may notice that the mod on the first page has changed again. You do not need to re-download it if you got the last one. I had to upload a new version because not everyone had gotten the image files from the first download. Nothing about the actual mod itself was changed.

So I was trying out these mod combinations, and the lizard nation has these saurus oldblood's that are ridiculous with these mod combos. whoever plays them will have to not use the oldbloods.

What is it making the oldbloods ridiculous? Looking at them I am almost 100% sure that they are no stronger than they are vanilla. There is no doubt that they are good, but...

1. They are cap only
2. They therefore compete with 4th gen slann
3. In the early game using them means giving up recruitment of a mage that you really, really want.

So it's really hard to use them effectively. I will recruit some, but it won't be for a while. And when I do it will be largely to move armies around. So you really don't have to worry about it. But seriously, they're no stronger here than they normally are, and I would hardly say they're ridiculous. Maybe they are a little on the cheap side for what they offer... but they have nothing on real SCs.

Hmm maybe it is a problem with compatibility with CBM then. THe ones I saw had at least 7-8 magic paths, including blood, for 80 gold. I will check my mods when I get home from work.
