[BTS] Rigel's Mod

[Rigel79]

(Sorry, I initially posted this in the wrong forum!)

Hello everyone, I just wanted to post and say that I've uploaded a new mod called, creatively enough, "Rigel's Mod".

It has a number of minor tweaks (new cultural levels, new game speed, adjusted movement rates), but the main thing is that all appropriate units now have ranged attacks.

There's nothing like a stack of Longbowmen sitting on a hill, annihilating the enemy before they even get close

Or a fleet of Frigates sitting off the coast, bombarding enemy units & cities

Or your cannons, decimating the enemy, from the safety of your cities

The only downside is, everything you can do, the AI can do as well. Still, it makes the tactics in Civ IV that much more interesting

Here's the entry in the File DB: http://forums.civfanatics.com/./down...o=file&id=7470

Try it out, and let me know what you think. I still need to balance some things, but overall I'm quite please with it.

Rigel, Ive gone a few turns into a game but have to finish my current one first. Just posting to say that the ideas look very good and I'm going to give some feedback when I get into it.

I'm working on balancing the units right now, further adjusting the movement rates, ranges and combat values. For one thing, I noticed that Tanks and Modern Armour are EXTREMELY overpowered (since they start with Blitz, they can shoot multiple times during a turn w/o retaliation), while Aircraft were pretty effectively nerfed by the changes I made (so I've got to beef them back up again).

Anyway, I'll try to get the new version posted sometime soon.

(Unfortunately, UT3 came out so I haven't been playing as much Civ as I normally would ).
