What next ?

Playing with EAW at last.
And then the version 2

 

[kenneth1221]

Ooh, shiny. Can't wait to see it, and almost want to beg for a preview. Regardless, ENW is an important part of my games these days, and I look forward to trying EAW out!

 

[vyyt]

Oh yeah!!! Very much intrigued!

 

[Asterix Rage]

Play it now !

May I ask what are the difference between the new fighters and bombers compared to the ones already in vp?

Strength and Range. Nothing else. AI sees and uses them as normal Units.

Why do you write in spanish here?
------
- Full test in progress. I want to make sure EAW doesn't break anything in VP.
- 1 model reskin and a few Flag Icons must be redone.
- Civilopedia. Nothing done yet.
It will take me 10 or 15 days probably and it will be amazing.

Meanwhile, enjoy the perfectly stable alpha version.

 

[danymatrix]

It looks really cool! When will that version be released? since I'm thinking of starting a new game. thanks.

New Fighters and Bombers in the sky of Vox Populi​

EAW is based on a simple concept that promises to improve the gameplay while being perfectly manageable by the AI.
New Air Units come through an entirely new line interspersed with the existing one which remains almost intact.
Therefore, a greater variety of Fighters and Bombers will be involved in conflicts between civilations. Even yours...

This first release is an Alpha version.
It doesn't mean that it doesn't work! In fact it works pretty well, you'll see.

So, why it is an Alpha?
Because some features are not integrated yet, such as :

- A wicked Attack Helicopter.
- A "Gold-maker" National Wonder to counterbalance the extra gold needed to upgrade more planes. Meanwhile, I advise you to use Casino Mod.
- Most of 'Strategy' and 'Historical Info' section in Civilopedia are empty. By the way, if one of you want to help and participate to EAW, there is a job here...
- Flag and Unit Icons are not over.
- And most importantly, you'll have to tell me how good or bad this EAW is.


Compatible with:
- Vox Populi (3-1) and above
- Enlightenment Era for VP
- Enhanced Naval Warfare for VP
- Promotion Flags EUI for VP
- 3rd and 4th Unique Components for VP
and all good modmods that do not affect Air Units mechanics

------
- Prueba completa en progreso. Quiero asegurarme de que EAW no rompa nada en VP.
- Se debe rehacer 1 modelo de piel y algunos íconos de bandera.
- Civilopedia. Nada hecho aún.
Probablemente me llevará 10 o 15 días y será increíble.

Mientras tanto, disfruta de la versión alfa perfectamente estable. [/ CITA]

Very, very,very good idea for mod.
Naval Warfare are one of the best =)

Will add to my pernament mods this too.

 

[adan_eslavo]

Can you provide some more details about new unit lines, or unit uniques? Do you plan to add Combat Drones?

Here

Do you plan to add Combat Drones?

No! But if you have a good idea about it, tell me...

 

[adan_eslavo]

Here we have some ideas...
I think these two mods have very much in common, because both try to modify late game air units. It would be nice if they were compatible with each other.

 

[Asterix Rage]

I think these two mods have very much in common

Nothing in common I'm afraid!
Air units are special unit_class coming late in the game. Allowing me to propose this new 2 lines interspersed concept.
Recon line starts at turn 0 because recon at turn 0 is all you need and, evolves on a special combat unit when recon becomes useless.

However, I look on the work and reflexions of amateurgamer88
Wait and see how things evolve. It could be an inspiration for a bigger project.

 

[Drakul]

Amazing mod Asterix.I try this one out but what about adding some unique carriers(Nimtz,De Gaulle etc) since they are connected to air warfare ? Also what about to add some planes to be made avaible for building with the "project" option ? Like with the Manhattan Project.Example moving them away from the Ideological tenets and naming it "Superior airforce project" and who first builds it gets the access to the unit. It would make them much more unique and valuable

 

[Asterix Rage]

Rather in ENW. But it has to enhance the gameplay.

some planes to be made avaible for building with the "project" option ? Like with the Manhattan Project.

I'd like so, but I don't know how to code a "project"

My focus for now is to make a simple, pure and perfect EAW version 1.0
Your feedback will speed up this goal.

However, I look on the work and reflexions of amateurgamer88 with respect but I don't agree with all the changes he suggests. I said it before. I don't think the recon line must be deeply reworked.
Wait and see how things evolve. It could be an inspiration for the bigger project...

Nice idea. It would be good to have one bigger overhaul insted of couple small ones. Easier to make them compatible.

I also shared some new ideas, because current modded lines are not good imo. Look at what I suggested and share your opinion if you like.
