With Warlords games we play now, will we be able to submit them for HoF or will we have to wait for a Warlords version of the mod to be released? Just curious. :)

You'll have to wait for an HOF mod update, and I wouldn't expect it in the next month.

Fair enough. Now I can go frustrate myself trying to decide whether to play Warlords or to play and HoF game. ;)

The HOF isn't going anywhere. I'm actually anticipating a decline of submissions until we legalize Warlords.

Will there be 2 separate HOFs or 1 general?

There can be only one. [/Scottish accent] <decapitates Lexad> [/Highlander reference]:ninja:

Like I had one! <pops another head out of his shoulders> [/Futurama take of 2 Santas reference]

And we ain't gonna be able to compare these, right? So whoever finds what version more promising for particular settings will use it.

Indeed. Some victory conditions may prove more apt for Vanilla, some for Warlords, much like PTW/C3C in III.

There will still be room for Vanilla though. Once we unveil the Challenge, nonWarlords users will be able to complete it. Additionally, the Gauntlet rotation will be readjusted where Major is shortened to a month. We'll have one Warlords gauntlet per month, one Vanilla gauntlet per month and the third being open to both.

From what I read so far, I believe that the Inca is way too powerful in Warlords. If you think they already are powerful now, wait until you see them in Warlords. Quechua still gets Combat 1 bonus without barracks. Perharps, it's a bug? Otherwise, it's like having an Aggressive + Industrious + Financial civ under your command.

PS: I don't have Warlords (not yet) and I have never seen Warlords. Like I said, I was just reading about it.

It's not a bug, it's a feature :) - saving beloved quechua-rush. Itis in the dscription. Still, no other units get free Combat I, and barracks ain't cheaper, so it's not Aggressive by far. But quechua-rush together with Industrious and Financial opens a plenty of opportunities, I agree.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the Ican's granary will also produce culture.;)

:lol: I was gonna wait until Christmas and get myself Warlords then. Looks like I might need to make the shift a little sooner!

Well, it's only $30; however, since superslug doesn't go for it yet. I guess I can wait. That would make me ultraslug, wouldn't it?;)

We're considering reopening the Beta tables purely for Warlords submissions. I'm really not sure we'd be able to expect much porting of Warlords 1.00 submissions over to the permanent tables though. It sounds like the Incans will be just one of a million inevitable things to get patched.

Hello

When I used mod 2.00.001 (I put it into the ini file) I got the following error :

“The assets are different from a standard install contact HOF staff”, so my (warlords) game was not valid for HOF.

I Unload the mod, and after that I load it manually, after that there were no error massage

Is there an error in that mod, so it can not be used automatically?

Strange. I will have to check that, it might not be finding the DLL using the ini.

I generally use a shortcut rather than the ini file. (You just copy the regular shortcut and add: mod= mods\HOF-1.61.007) You might want to try that. Note: the extra space is intentional.
