N3O Age Of Empires and Starcraft 2 Clan

Hey guys, I believe we've waited long enough for this next iteration I have coupled up. I have taken almost every suggestion and implemented it. However, I have not yet touched the Dutch civ as people have suggested; as I am completely inexperienced with them, I will do nothing drastic. As it is, I have boosted Skirmishers slightly (by more speed), boosted grenadiers (more balanced than in the previous version), and boosted Outposts slightly (240 wood, 48 train points now). However, the British, Iroquois, and India are seeming to have more punch. The Rajput/Xbow problem should be fixed now. As for Mansabders I am just fooling around with stuff. I really think they could have some either 15% aura or 1.5x cost (instead of 2.0x). I need testers to finalize changes and such. I have not done much with the Ottomans yet, though I can agree a little on some ideas and changes. Those may come later, with the next iteration. The next iteration after this may come Christmas time, but no promises. I've also removed a lot of useless changes. A Readme has been added as well for installation.

No, I'm talking about where is says N3O member. IIRC it should say something else....

I have re-uploaded a new file, with all kinds of bugs fixed, and with more of the suggestions. I went through with this because India was OP, and many other strings were messed up. However, there are some major improvements, some of which include, for civs,

Some General Changes:

* Musketeers units (most, not mercenary types) have about 8% to 10% less ranged attack. This includes Musketeers (21 dmg), Janissaries (20 dmg), Ashigaru (22 dmg), Sepoy (23 dmg, 14 hand), Consulate Redcoats (21 dmg), Consulate Stadhouders (21 dmg), Consulate Tufanci Corps (20 dmg), and Tomahawks (18 dmg).

* Hussars, Consulate Lifeguards, Consulate Baskirs, and Consulate Gardener armor reduced to 0.10.

* Halberdiers have 4.25 speed.


Dutch:

* +1 wood crate upon hitting colonial


Some on Iroquois:

*Musket Riders given 60 food, 95 coin, to keep some of their uniqueness


Some on India:

* +1 coin crate upon hitting colonial

* More balanced Agras and age ups.

* More balanced Rajput unit (170 HP, 15 dmg, 3.5x vs. cav, 2.8x vs. LI; Honored Rajput gives +50% armor (from 0.20 to 0.30), Dravidian Martial Arts Card gives Rajputs also +10% speed.)

* Sepoy ranged attack reduced to 23 (down from 25), hand attack reduced to 14 (down from 15).

* More balanced Zamburack unit (125 HP, 11 range; +1.0 range and LOS from Disciplined, +1.0 range and LOS from Honored)

* Native Trade Tax +1 Villager Card: Content replaced by Indian Infantry Combat, which gives Infantry +15% Hitpoints and Attack. This is available in Fortress Age for India. (The 14 Gurkha +1 Villager card was buggy and could be sent twice, once before Imperial and once in Imperial, in which case I found this card a better alternative, since it is not buggy at all).

* Monastery Crushing force tech gives Mahouts +1.0 Area. Mahout Area attack increased to 63 (up from 56), and trample reduced to 98 (down from 112) to compensate for this change.

* Sacred Fields: build limit set to 1 in Discovery Age, with 10 sacred cow build limit; 2 in Colonial Age, with 20 sacred cow build limit; and 3 in Fortress Age, with 30 sacred cow build limit.


Some on Japan:

* Yabusames changed as was, but now cost 80 food, 130 coin to remain their uniqueness

* Ashigaru ranged attack reduced to 22 (down from 24).

*Samurai bonus vs. cavalry reduced to 1.75x, bonus to LI reduced to 1.4x.

*Close Combat Card now gives all Japanese infantry more damage against cavalry.

* Yabusame Attack card now gives +25% damage and +0.5x bonus against cavalry, and +0.4x bonus against AbstractCoyoteMan.

* Yabusame Artillery attack change removed.


Some on Ottomans:

* Spahi armor boost removed

* Janissary ranged attack reduced to 20 (down from 21), and the previous changes (95 food, 25 coin cost, and 0.30 armor) have been removed.

* Abus Guns made 60 food, 90 coin

* Veteran Abus Guns no longer auto-upgrades upon hitting fortress.


Minor Natives:

* Maya Holcan spearman have 9 attack (up from , 3.5x LI cavalry (up from 3.0x), 2.8x vs. LI (up from 2.4x), and have 48 siege (up from 45).

* Chakrams have 0.6x penalty against cavalry (instead of 0.75x in previous version).


Bugs:

*Fixed quite a few more bugs, especially one with Skirmisher units not getting 0.75x multiplier against Tiger Claws and Rattan Shields.

--------------------------------------------------------

These are a preview of some the changes. There are still more mentioned in the patch notes. I have playtested a bit myself and see Spain and Japan competing with each other so far.




Enjoy til Christmas!
