MOD HARD(Finalversion)))))

[Laudan]

Now the mod is finished and you see in the first time big rebelsarmy in your kingdom!Over 1000 mens love to kill you!Now you must build strong cities for defent and you must choose the right ability of your own marschalls.Its a long way to become abilities and you must now often look behind in your kingdom.Rebelsarmy must you defeat fast or your proplems growing up.The another kingdom send to you five armys and all have nine squads,if the kingdoms have enough gold.Its not enough, you see now marschalls (with the engineering ability first step)comes with catapults and not more ballistas for destroying your walls!All siege machines cannot more easy destroy,you need now douple time for destroying.
Marschallskill ability------------------ siege machine

engineering first star----------------- catapults only
engineering second star---------------- catapults or trebuchets
engineering third star------------------- catapults or trebuchets or ballistas
But this is not all,the AI make now more alliances and NAP(NotAttackPakt))with the AI,this mean,if a AI have more then 2 alliances your troubles grow up!!!The rebells or sympathisants comes in 360/480/600 or 1080 mens,but you see 360 mens often.
The AI will never have a peace with you in the war,except the AI have too much lost armys!Now ,the AI play very well!!
Have a fun with these MOD!

You must start this MOD in the level hard!!

[Elvain]

thanks, I'll try it :go:

[Laudan]

ELVAIN look again in the list,trader was not right,farmers was right!!

[Slocket]

Yes, I am looking and studying also. I am abit new, but I watch the AI work for hours and see what it is up to. I like more to play with AI game mechanics than actually playing my games. :lol:

So I will watch what it does carefully to see how it builds, armies, marshall skill, any siege equipment. AI using diplomacy better, etc.. takes some time to obsrve all this. :eek:

The game is just jetzt new here in the USA.

A good Mod can lead to good sales und happy customers to promote KoH and that ist gut!

[Anguille2]

I just would like to say thank you....i am playing a large campaign for an AAR with your mod and i am very happy with the challenge... :go:

Maybe i'll try also another mod (Elvains and Angryminer) but for now, i am very busy defending my Caliphate. :knight:

[boromeo]

Thanks Laudan .. :smile: ...I'll try your mod and give you feedback about it.. :cheers:

[boromeo]

Laudan did you change sumthing in the econonmic aspect of the game too ?

[Ldvs]

Laudan did you change sumthing in the econonmic aspect of the game too ?
Perhaps in a roundabout way but he hasn't modified the economic files as many modders have. I think it's not really the purpose of his mod.

[boromeo]

Perhaps in a roundabout way but he hasn't modified the economic files as many modders have. I think it's not really the purpose of his mod.



Yes i tried this mod this afternoon and the economic aspect of the game is the same as vanilla that means not realistic ..this mod is good for the people who like the military aspect of the game..but i'm the kind of player who prefer to have a strong economy and fight other kingdoms after...it would be a very good idea to join this mod to the mod of Angryminer or Elvain..so the ai would be better in the economic and the military

[Elvain]

I once tried this mod together with Glory of God (1.4 I guess) and it made the game almost unplayable. Not for me, but it was annoying to see how all big empires broke and were splited into small ones. With ANgryminer's tough economy and Laudan's strong rebels the Ai was unable to hold a single province against rebels. Even I had serious problems :lol:

so I modified both aspects(military-rebel and economic), ballanced it, added some my ideas and features and it's my mod :smile:
yes, I am kind of copycat... :nono: but not at all. I looked up what have they changed and changed it to a way I like it (and AI kingdoms are stable)

unfortunately I didn't try this mod itself alone so I don't know how exactly it works. But I suppose it must be great (as I saw those unbelievable numerous rebels-I rather made them believably numerous :lol:)

[TheLennox]

if i donwload this file WinRar opens a non-sense file and WinZip has an error... I'll change it manually now.

[Languish]

Ah! This is the Mod you are using for your Fatamid's AAR Elvain?

[Elvain]

Nope. I'm not writing Fatimids AAR and except short time I don't use this mod. What I found good here got to Holy Rome mod(edited to have some ballance in HR)

But I think Anguille uses it for his Fatimids AAR

Ah yes - sorry got the two of you mixed up! :silly:

[SdO Khabaal]

Hi Laudan! Ich habe mittlerweile angefangen, Heroes of Might and Magic IV für Knights of Honor umzusetzen, weiß allerdings nicht, ob und wie die Einheitengrafiken editiert werden können. Allerdings haben die Entwickler im EXTRA-Ordner sschließlich auch all ihre Einheiten als Gif zur Verfügung gestellt. Deswegen wollte ich dich fragen, wo in welcher Pak die Dateien abgespeichert sind und welche Extension sie haben. :scratch:
