(belegar/skarsnik) karak eight peaks "NOT TAKEN BONUS" balances (warad_tww2_karak8pic.pack)
ahoy !
=> for any requests/questions: contact me !
[description]
=> this mod is part of my compilation (all together make a small tweaked vanilla experience and keep all vanilla aspect useful !)
=> This is a pretty simple mod adding a balanced and interesting bonus for skarsnik and belegar to make them more balanced compared to queek
NOTE: it also allows the factions to be "kind of playable" without rushing karak eight peaks (or even for co-op play)
=> AI should not be touched by any bonus or malus from "the eight peaks race" as in TWW 1
[details]
=> SKARSNIK faction gets +15 morale for all goblins (factionwide IF karak eight peaks is NOT taken)
NOTES:
<> this is a lower value than when you get your special karak eight peaks building (late game, if you have k8p, the unique buildings allows +20)
<> the bonus is active ONLY IF YOU DONT HAVE K8P (this means that when you HAVE k8p, you will lose the bonus and have to wait the unique building to gives your +20)
<> this allow skarsnik with a full goblin gameplay from start and it allows him to live a bit better without eight peaks (more free play, more roleplay)
=> BELEGAR faction gets +50% income from citie’s MAIN BUILDING CHAINS (all regions IF karak eight peaks is NOT taken)
NOTES:
<> this bonus is active ONLY IF YOU DONT HAVE K8P (you get back to regular upkeeps and incomes INSTANTLY when K8P is taken !!!)
<> this bonus was put to +50% income from main building chains after deep testing and comparing before and after having k8p
<> if he gets a real big empire (late game, with techs), the income bonus will fully offset the +50% upkeep, even allowing him to live without eight peaks
<> it makes the faction playable in real higher difficulties with more varieties of choices (more free play, more roleplay)
WARNING: if belegar faction lose AGAIN k8p, it seems that he DOESNT get anymore the upkeep malus (neither my added income bonus), but he gets -5 public
order
IMPORTANT NOTE: QUEEK faction stay untouched as they DONT HAVE any special eight peaks buildings, neither any real bad trait tied to eight peaks
[compatibilities]
=> The mod is compatible with any mods
=> Fully playable in SP and MP (if other MP players got same mods of course)
=> All my mods will always be up to dates with any DLC / FLC / patch as fast as possible
[use]
=> You can safely add or delete this mod with ongoing campaigns
[end]
NOTE: "warad" means WARriors of ADrien (me), its a real long story, some know, some dont, some will…
=> check out my collection to see what i think essential, or to check the mods i make:
– i like simple mods (no scripts, no startpos for example)
– i like the original game, just with minor tweaks to allow a richer gameplay in every ways for everyone
– i play only with roleplay in SP and MP (campaigns and battles), and i never get tired of this !
have a nice race running !
