I've been thinking about making a trimmed down version of FfH2. The idea would be to make it faster paced, less fluff, more tactics, and hopefully something that is easier to balance and play.
I'm not sure I will ever have time to mod this myself, so I hope I will get people on board who can do much of the work for me. But I want to start this with this thread and see if there is interest and if you have any ideas to how it should eventually be?
My thoughts so far:
Civs
Anyways. If you got ideas, thoughts, time. Please help me here.
I will probably not be able to make anything out of this without someone willing to help me mod this as the time I am willing/able to spend on this will not be a lot.
This might never become anything, since I guess it goes against why most people play this game.
So if this generate interest maybe we can design something we can eventually start modding.
Basically want the whole mod designed before I start doing any xml/etc work.

My thoughts so far:
Civs
- Keep all civs
- Remove some buildings
- Maybe merge some building effects into one building.
- Lower costs on most buildings.
- (Maybe) Remove some units
- Have a unit limit. Maybe fixed, maybe dependent on certain factors.
- Have a limit on units per tile. Maybe increased by having Commanders attached.
- Remove some spells
- Redesign some spells
- Maybe change how Mana works. Maybe have mana type decided on game start.
- Not sure
