Does exist FFH2 compatible with Civ4 Warlord?

If yes, please give me the download link!

From the FAQ:

Q: Are there plans to update Fall from Heaven to run with the Warlords expansion?

A: No, there are a few features in Warlords that we have backported to Fall from Heaven but we won't be making Fall from Heaven into a Warlords mod because we don't feel that the new features justify the time it would take to convert and we don't want to require players to have to have Warlords to play Fall from Heaven. Players with Warlords installed can still play Fall from Heaven if they use their vanilla Civ4 CD.

We will be porting Fall from Heaven to the Beyond the Sword codebase when it is released.

What's that?

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! :D

I bought the chronicles boxed set- which is advertised as including every expansion pack- only to find I was fooled by amazon.com & Firaxis false advertising. Every expansion pack EXCEPT warlords. :aargh: :gripe: :mad: [pissed]

Warlords had been out 9 months before chronicles- so the only excuse for that was a greedy money-grub. I refuse to ever buy warlords on principle. I don't care if the box set cost another 20 to include it- the reason I waited 6 months for the box set was so I would have all the Civilizations in one nice box.

I also second the question- what is Beyond the Sword?

[EDIT:] Never mind. :)

Now that was one heck of a typo :blush:

Thanks Mr. Underhill:D

As best I can tell it is the expansion pack that was announced today.

You sure you should be saying that, Kael?

EDIT: Never mind, hadn't realised they'd announced it :)

Mmm... If FfH isn't included, Armageddon will ensue.

Why would an unfinished mod be included? They've been talking about improved modability by all accounts, so I was expecting Kael to switch over. Apart from anything else, the corporations model and the removal of the civ limit will make a big difference to FfH.

How exactly would corporations fit into a fantasy game?

sounds cool. We'll find a use for corporations.

Guild would make good alternative to corporations.

@Beefonthebone: when I bought conquests and installed it, it contained DyP which also wasn't completed.

OOC Beyond the swords look very cool

double post

We will be porting Fall from Heaven to the Beyond the Sword codebase when it is released.

Stupid question time, Does this mean we will have to buy the Beyond The Sword expansion pack to continue playing FfH2 in the future, or will this be more like Warlords where you picked some of the code to import but we did not need to get the expansion pack.

I have a sneaky suspicion that it is the former, Nimbus.

Not, of course, to continue playing the version you have, or those that come between now and then, but all the new versions thereafter (or at some point afterwords) will require BtS if it meets Kael's expectations and we port over.

Probably we'll finish up fire with vanilla civ 4 and then shadow will be BTS.

...which is a good thing, since (I hope) many improvements will come with the expansion that can and should be used for the ultimate modding/FfH experience. :)

I thought that Kael said that ffh would move to bts after the final version is complete.

Hopefully updating to BtS will make FfH work with the latest pitboss. That would be reason enough to do it IMO.

I don't think it is too much to ask for people to buy the expansion and support Firaxis a bit. We certainly get our money's worth out of the FfH team's free content.

Sounds great! Good reason to get this expansion then :)

This upset me at first, since I wasted some money (actually a gift card) on Warlords and haven't play it since I found my original CD. I bought it thinking it would let me continue playing FfH. However, after reading what will be added to BtS I am gland. I especially like the ability to start later into the game. I was going to suggest adding something like this to FfH soon, since it takes even longer to play, but I guess it might be best to leave that work to the people who are getting paid for it. I usually need to give myself and several rivals a few dozen great people at the start of the game to speed the early game. I therefore rarely play as Cassiel, since each Great person I add to my first city lowers the potential to generate Adventurers.

Maybe this could also let you start a game as Hyborem or Basium, entering a world that has been auto-played until you were summoned.

I will buy the BtS if I need it to play FFH2.
As someone said before, it's not that much for such a great-super mod

OK probably the wrong forum to ask this in, but since it follows the current discussion, here goes...

Does anybody know if BtS will require Warlords?

If the Civ 3 expansions are anything to go by, probably not, particularly since Warlords is in addition to the regular install, not on top of it. Not quite sure how they'll work out what to do with people who have both - it may well include Warlords' content for simplicity, like C3C did.

Maybe they should sell a "chronicles" expansion- Warlords, BtS, and a DVD case that can hold 4 CDs so it will still all fit neatly in my box set :)

You would need someone from Firaxis to answer that for you.

To quote the official press release:
Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Beyond the Sword from 2K will require the full version of Sid Meier's Civilization IV to play and will be released for PC in July 2007, retailing for $29.99

Maybe this could also let you start a game as Hyborem or Basium, entering a world that has been auto-played until you were summoned.
This is already possible, look at the Rhye's and Fall of Civilization mod (pretty good one, but more like a historically correct vanilla, not containing any fantasy elements). You pick a civ and the game is autoplayed until the birth-date of the chosen civ (i.e. Greeks at 1800 BC, USA 1750AD or so). Would be cool, but probably quite some work to integrate.

I know it is possible already. I was going to suggest integrating part of Rhye's code, but if they would just have to undo this later it might be easier just to wait until the expansion.

Hyborem and Basium are rewarded races, you have to play to earn them. I dont think it would be very satisfying to let the AI play forward until they create them. Better to let the player plan it out.
