Conquests Basic Israel Mod

[Gogf]

Okay, Rita Poon has begun work on the leaderhead!

Hi guys, I wrote my own Israel mod not knowing that someone had already made one. My mod actually incorporates a lot of the suggestions that people made in this thread. Unlike some other Israel mods that I read about today, mine only has 1 unique unit. All the scientific and military leaders are all ones from the old testament. If you're an old testament guru, you'll like my mod. I tried to make it balanced and interesting while making as few changes as possible to the core rules. Try it out if you like.

I'm Christian, not Jewish but I have a lot of jewish friends who I think are pretty dang cool . IMHO jews are among the most intelligent people in the world. I'm also very interested in jewish history so please let me know if I've made any historical errors in my civilopedia entries.

whats this mighty man? a big men? you mean the one who FOUGHT the israelities? lol

 

[ThinkerRCB]

No, they fought on the side of the Israelites. Mighty men is the term used in the old testament to describe King David's elite task force. They were extremelly skilled at war using a variety of weapons, and some of them were ambidextrous. Just do a Google search or read 2 Samuel 10:7, 2 Samuel 23, 1 Chronicles chapters 11, 12, and 19, 28 (this chapter mentions Solomon's temple too)

I'll try it out. Thanks.
Couldn't download right now, probably too crowded.

Deleted.

Okay, I may release 3.0 before the leaderhead, as it's taking a long time, but I'll still wait a little longer.

Does anyone have any last minute ideas?

 

[Gogf]

Alright, final chance for update requests.

I've decided to use Gilgamesh.

 

[Jono]

how about Ramat-Hasharon as a city?

 

[Gogf]

Okay, I'll add it in .

 

[Gogf]

Know bugs that will be fixed in 3.0:

Game crashes because of no Merkava 4 small pedia icon.
No Israeli archers.

 

[Gogf]

Okay, R8XFT is actually having David come out reasonably soon, so I've delayed it for him again.

 

[Gogf]

Okay, Kind David is finally done! Expect version 3.0 in about a week.

 

[Margim]

If you are still interested in a slinger type unit, I found one of kinboats Inca units that actually seemed quite appropriate.

When is version 3.0 expected to come out?

I'm anxiously awaiting the new leaderhead, and other changes.

 

[Gogf]

Very sorry about the lack of updates . I've been away from Connecticut for a while, and had a very slow internet. Once I get back to Connecticut, I'll have a week at home, at which time I'll finish version 3.0 .

@Margim: I'm not still looking for a slinger-type unit, as the Merkava is fine. Yes, I saw Kinboat's unit when it came out, but decided against it.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

The Macabee is done! Dom Pedro made it and its availible in the embattled holy land unit pack, on the new units board.

Brothers of Isreal...UNITE!

 

[trancer58]

Did you checked the mod before you posted it? I only started playing and when I opened the science tree and got to the modern age the game crashed, because it did not find some kind of icon.

 

[Gogf]

Version 3.0 has been released!

All bugs and game crashes have been fixed, and the Israelis are now Commercial and Religious.
