Better Walls Reforgeed
This is a mix of 2 mods. ChessPro2007’s Better wallshttps://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2497957795&searchtext=better+walls and Luke’s Better walls https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1742165488&searchtext=better+walls. Make Walls better late game (and weak in early game) so you should actually consider building them and so you can’t just build ancient walls and be safe forever. At the same time not having to wait 100 years for a siege in ancient city.
- Ancient Walls (T1) Defense HP decreased to 25 (from 100). Defense Strength is kept at 3.
- Medieval Walls (T2), Renaissance Walls (T3) and Georgian’s Tsikhe (Ts) are little cheaper (225/305/265 to 210/300/250 respectively).
- T2 and T3 Defense HP decreased to 75/125 respectively. Ts is kept at 180 because if increased to 230, it will outperform Urban Defense. and you actually lose some when getting Steel.
- T2 and T3 (and Ts) Outer Defense Strength increased to 6/10 (from 3). T1 is kept at 3.
- T3 and Ts now provide 1 Housing.
- Military Research (Military Academies, Seaports, and Renaissance Walls generate +2 Science) is no longer Obsolete (was obsolete at Space Race).
- Limes and Bastions (increase Walls build production and strength) policies are now obsolete by Military Research instead of Public Works (just a bit later, now obsolete at Urbanization instead of Civil Engineering).
- Siege Tactics base research cost decreased to 540 (from 600). It is now on par with Gunpowder and visually available before Metal Casting.
- Maintenance: Ancient Walls = 3, Medieval Walls = 5, Renaissance Walls = 7
- Added bonus City Strength for each wall level and few other minor changes
This mod (Citadel Policy Card) https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1935368217
adds a Policy Card that combines the effects of Limes and Bastions (as well as Veterancy) and does not become obsolete. I also wanted to allow building walls after Urban Defense for Tourism and Science purpose but it is not technically possible.
