Ageless Era - Current Version: 4.37

Here you go Huston. It is to big so you will have to download it from here

[wesfreak]

i looked through a few of the more unbalanced units (yokai and primeval mainly) but i didn't see any changes. could you maybe list what changes you made to which units?

[Thalioden]

I began downloading all the MP eras for the purpose of creating an era compilation when I ran across this!! Excellent work! I saw there was discussion a few months ago about adding the bear and hoarfroster unit back into the Sidhe faction, but it does not seem to have happened. Was this abandoned? I hope not, since I also prefer the EE Sidhe faction, and miss these units in the IE/AE version.

in my ageless version i have re-implemented the sithe...but i hope the EE sithe return on the original ageless add on becouse are really cool and REALLY better than the imperial sithe

*if my era version need,i can send it to you, mewton..

[Thalioden]

Thank you for the offer, Reno, but reimplementing the Extended Era Sidhe is not difficult for me to do. The problem is that others using the mod need to have the same version I do for multiplayer reasons. So this needs to be in the main Ageless Era mod or multiplayer won't work.

[RenoOfTurks]

in my era version there are kedari,nightmare of meloen and mercenary factions too....

[wesfreak]

oh. i thought you made balance changes. that makes sense.

[RenoOfTurks]

i do some balancing changes

[MattDakka]

Yes, all balancements are welcome, but they must be included in one official Ageless Era release, to avoid confusion among online players.

i decided to go through the factions once quickly, so that we know for sure which factions need to be changed and how. I put them in 4 categories: unbalanced, needs update and unknown (from the last time i played ageless, when the brungar still have crabs that do pierce). since i don't have time to playtest them all, i'm assuming that no factions are balanced yet, other than the ones exactly from default. I'm going to go through the unknown list and put them all in different categories eventually

Unbalanced (for sure): ukians, primeval, khthon, yokai, steelhive, high elves (most of these guys have 50 % def on flat), desert elves, calydonians, clockwork dwarves, steppe orcs,
Need updates because they are more balanced in original era: welkin, brungar, celestials, warg, everything from era of magic, aragwaithy (possibly just unbalanced),sidhe (other version is probably better)
?: everything else (too long to list)
seems balanced: sylvans, dwarves, outlaws, wood warriors, dark legion (only they should be chaotic not lawful, but that's not balance), therians, lavinien legion, maurauders, aerendians, eventide.

I only looked over the recruitable units.

The High Elves Cavalier, Escrimeur and Aegis have no pictures
No amla for the Aegis

[Thalioden]

What happened to the Extended Era Steppe Orcs?

[mnewton1]

@DerTod: Thanks.

@Thalioden: They are now the Feudal Era's Orcish Khaganates.
