Description:

Vanilla Plus – Looking to make TWR2 more enjoyable within a Vanilla framework!

This is a follow up to my original mod found here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2865950340

For the empire divided map I have used the mod originally created by Novaspook – https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2096448001

Dresden’s City Sack and Liberate – https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=186925601

As well as Season effects originally created by Dresden – https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=205975174

Additions on top of this mod are as follows:

– Increased Research time x2 vs. Vanilla. I have done this as I always felt the usual times were ‘too fast’ in a 4TPY scenario but the alternatives of x4 length took away from the gameplay. As time goes on and I get more confident with modding I will look to layer the length ranging from x1.5 upwards to better balance the gameplay. (Only for Grand Campaign)
– Increased Construction time x2 vs. Vanilla. I have done this as I always felt the usual times were ‘too fast’ in a 4TPY scenario but the alternatives of x4 length took away from the gameplay. As time goes on and I get more confident with modding I will look to layer the length ranging from x1.5 upwards to better balance the gameplay (Only for Grand Campaign)

This is not to be an overhaul mod but rather keep much of the Vanilla experience with tweaks to improve the gameplay experience. Any feedback is welcome.

NOTES:

I have removed Plagues & Banditry from Empire Divided from the main campaign as I felt that this was not adding to the Vanilla experience. The normal plague mechanic will still be active.

Save games will still load but require the specific buildings to be demolished and replaced.

Alternatively, use Dresden’s original mod which will allow you to continue as normal: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1214366088
