Insert Ageless Era into Armageddon_PYR permision
Hi! I'm working on inserting over 1898 units of Ageless Era Mod into Armageddon_PYR Mod to be able to make your custom recruiting list with Ageless Era units, and i want to ask permision, to mnewton1 and Horus2, for to do that and eventualy publish on this site. I don't want to credit me anywhere, i just want to be able to choose units from a large number of beautifull units like Ageless Era, because Horus2 genius idea resolve the problem of balancing a unit list if the price of the units is correct.
Re: Insert Ageless Era into Armageddon_PYR permision
But as in the PYR era it must have some changes on the prices because some ageless units are overpowered.
As an example, almost any despair unit, they are hightly overpowered againist default's factions balance.

I think it will be a very huge work for the balancing o.o!and maybe too much variety of units can cause confusion for a selection...
Re: Insert Ageless Era into Armageddon_PYR permision
By the way, Ageless Era is just a compilation of factions and eras from other authors. Ideally, you might want to find that list (it's supposedly easily accessible almost anywhere in Ageless, go look at its thread?) and ask each author individually.

The faction is not important, because the player can choose the units inside the faction, and all player must know very well all units. The victory will depends both of strategy and wisdom in choosing units in recruit list. This not allowed to learn paterns before and use the best patern in games, because the number of combinations isIPS wrote:But as in the PYR era it must have some changes on the prices because some ageless units are overpowered.

Balancing a unit is much easier than balancing a faction. For units it is important to make the right price of that unit function of power of that unit. I will not modify the stats of the units, just the price. The price can be calculated base on the complex formula or algorithm, that is what i must do, the right formula or the right algorithm to calculate the price of the unit correctly. If all unit will has the right price, on the same amound of money for each player will results the same power of the recruit list whitch was chosen, and here it is: the factions are balanced!RenoOfTurks wrote:I think it will be a very huge work for the balancing o.o!and maybe too much variety of units can cause confusion for a selection...

Yes, you are right. I will do that.Dixie wrote:By the way, Ageless Era is just a compilation of factions and eras from other authors. Ideally, you might want to find that list (it's supposedly easily accessible almost anywhere in Ageless, go look at its thread?) and ask each author individually.

As dixie said, you need to ask the authors of each era/faction in my era, not me. Also, I am curious as to how you came up with this number, 872.525.924.922.995.498.541.100, and I assume the periods should be commas?

Re: Insert Ageless Era into Armageddon_PYR permision
A good idea would be to input 1898 and 5 into the combination function. This produces 1.697505862*10^15, a number comparable in size, but I'm not sure how they got that number either.mnewton1 wrote:Also, I am curious as to how you came up with this number, 872.525.924.922.995.498.541.100, and I assume the periods should be commas?

Is the combination number of 1898 units in your mod in sum of 100 gold pieces for each.mnewton1 wrote:As dixie said, you need to ask the authors of each era/faction in my era, not me.

And the work is done. But i will begin to ask every author of each era for post the result.

Well, i haven't been asked for any permission so far. But i would like to point out that none of these statements are true, especially not the last one, which is the wesnothers' philosophers' stone.
There are some very good points why the number of units is not increasing drastically in PYR Armageddon. For further details please read that thread, especially my reply to IceAssassin; i don't want to cite myself word by word.
And for the second statement, denial in one short line of text: balance out Thug without tweaking stats.
So, i'm not prohibiting you to make this era, there are just reasons why it is not wise.
