It has to be said.

Recommended Posts

Like really, why can't people just make FINISHED mods?! Like really, "Oh, we're going to get you exited that we've made a good mod, but then we slap a "release" date onto this mod (treating mods like triple A games), or we're going to make getting the link or download difficult so you have to join some stupid discord server or something,"

Now it may seem I'm against community input, I am not, in fact, a mod would be barren without the communities help, all I'm saying is that you at least get your mod to a stage where it's not ". . .we only have about half of the promised provinces (something like that)"  if your mod is not what you promised, then that is just generally just a bad thing to do.

I'm not saying making a mod is easy, I just wanted to rant on about how "mod makers" never actually put finished and polished mods up anymore, it's only these empty shells of what a "mod" is.

There are 100% some good "WIP" mods out there, but they normally are just about to be finished up when they are posted, all the mod needs is some polish and input from the community.

This is a message to mod makers, DON'T post either mods that have not even been made yet, or mods that are in an early stage of development, it just grinds my gears, I know [some or maybe most] people may hate me for what I have had to say, but I don't want the mess that came of "early access" to happen to the community.

Thankyou for listening to my rant, dear Reader.

    • Campaign: Small Scenarios
      In this topic, share your ideas for Campaign scenarios.

      These scenarios focus on a small part of the map, with the rest designated as wasteland.

       

      For example, a scenario of the Reconquista in 1054, where gameplay takes place only on the Iberian Peninsula.

      What are your ideas for small historical scenarios?

       


       
    • Events - Common events for every civilization in the game
      Hi,
      in this topic, I am interested in your ideas for events that can happen for every Civilization in the game.
      I'm also interested in Missions for every Civilization.

      Here is some example, have more than 10k army, have more than 5000 gold, build 10 buildings, recruit an Advisor, increase tax efficiency 20 times, be largest  producer of some resource in the world, unlock 5 Civilization legacies etc.

    • Land units - Ideas AoH3
      AoH3 will have different types of land units.

      In this topic we will write ideas for new land units. 

       

      So the AoH 3 will have new battle system.


      Representation of the battlefield in the game.


      Land units will be grouped into 3 types. Each unit will have a different recruitment cost, attack, defense, movement speed and upkeep.

      Groups determine the placement of units on the battlefield.


       

      Each unit can be unlocked by researching technology and then upgraded.

       

      Here is the current list of units with upgrades:

      First line:

      Warrior -> Light Footmen -> Heavy Infantry -> Infantry -> Line Infantry -> Modern Infantry

      Hoplites -> Spearmen -> Pikeman -> Elite Pikeman -> Musketeer -> Riflemen -> Mechanized Infantry -> Modern Mechanized Infantry

      First line side:

      Horseman -> Elite Horseman -> Cavalry -> Tank -> Modern Tank

      Second line:

      Archer -> Bowmen -> Crossbowman -> Elite Crossbowman

      Canon -> Field Cannon -> Artillery -> Modern Artillery

      Early Airplane -> Airplane -> Modern Airplane

       

      This is a very early version, so maybe something should be changed?

      Or maybe an idea for a new type of unit with upgrades? I'm waiting for your suggestions.
