Bronze & Iron

It seems as if the files on the bronze/ Iron mod are no longer working. is there any way that you could give me some working ones? a also when I open the mod from the zip on a old thread even if im at peace with a civ my units can attack them and they attack me , yet im still at peace with that civ? maybe you know whats going on
 
No, it's working. You should be able to download the latest version. I have done that 10 min ago... if not then send me a pm and I can send it to you in other way.
I don't know if you noticed that you can download units now? All links are restored.

In a Bronze Age era all basic units for all civs have hidden nationality. I have done that to simulate rides, for riches and gold, settlements sacking without warring, etc. as well now AI annihilates thousands of other AI units. You can even play on large map in debug mode, look on everything and game is slowing down at all because of that settings.
I should finish units descriptions to make it clear for players but I have no time right now.

All units have nationalities except those you can build at the beginning without any technology or resources like cycladic warrior, trojan warrior, aegean spearman, etc. Settlers, workers, and scouts have nationalities.
Those units are nor very strong but ideal for making any problems to other AI players.... and to human player :)
 
Love this mod! Thank you so much!
About the last bit "The animations where not swapped yet with flc's from B&I Units Pack's page. No time right now."
Does it mean that the lastest flc is from the Units Pack, or the ones inside the mod are already up-to-date?
Thanks again!
 
Also, after a peace treaty, AI starts building neutral instead of their faction units. Any idea how to fix this? Thank you.

Nevermind, I think I understand now that's the hidden nationality mechanism.

In general, the Civ3-AI loves the Hidden Nationality unit-ability, and may/will often build those units to the exclusion of better ones.

For example, in the Sengoku scenario, the AI will often spam Ninjas (A.D.M=6.2.1, requires Jade, unit-abilities HN, All Terrain As Roads, Amphibious, Stealth-Attack, Invisible) in preference over stronger attackers such as Mounted Samurai (A.D.M=7.7.2, requires Horses + Iron, Blitz), Samurai Archers (A.D.M=6.3.1, B.R.F=3.1.1, no resources, Amphibious), and even Samurai Arqebusiers (A.D.M=10.8.1, B.R.F=8.3.2 [IIRC], requires Saltpeter, Amphibious).

And then, instead of assigning its Ninja to their primary purpose of infiltrating and assassinating opponents' Daimyo (the Scenario uses the Regicide option) — and despite the fact that the Civ3 engine allows AI-Civs (but not the Human) to use HN-units to attack/capture opponents' cities during peacetime — it will tend to use them mainly to kidnap its opponents' Workers :crazyeye:
 
I really enjoy this wonderful scenario! However there are some minor text and civipedia bugs that need fixing. Wonder if I can contribute to help update the files?

Thank you, this is good news!
Can you upload a copy to some other cloud that doesn't require authorization when trying to download a file?
