[MOD] Fall from Heaven II

[Kael]

noob question: how do I declare war on the barbs if I start with the Clan of Embers?
the last time I played with a barbarian friendly civ, I was able to declare war on the barbs by selecting 'declare war' on the pop-up that appeared when entering the same tile of a barb unit in unowned territory.
in my current game with the Clan, the barbs set up a city with which I have common borders. I tried attacking the city, or any other barb units in their territority but no such pop-up appeared, and there is no unowned territory left to try to attack a barb unit there.
help!

There is no easy way.

But if you send Rantine to the city he can convert it to you without war.

A new "Fire" writeup on the Armageddon Counter and the WarScript has been added to the designer diary. You can check them out in this post:

The arm counter is shown in the screenshots.

Trust me, you don't want screenshots, you want a beta version.

 

[Love]

That too...

Any thoughts to making bird flights a bit more risky? Seems like at least some hero archer ought to be able to bring one down.

Not really, although that would be easy to add I don't see that they require a counter. They seem fair (if not underpowered) for what you pay for them.

Quite by accident, I discovered that the names of many of the factions are taken from apocryphal Christian scripture, and that they are the names of angels or demons.

Examples:
Malakim, Elohim, Grigori, Mercurians, and Kuriotates are all names of angels.

Balseraphs and Calabim are names of demons.

It took me awhile, but I eventually discovered the same thing.

Yeap. And other references as well. Os-Gabella, for example, has her backstory based on Lillith.

There are 4 barbarian heroes in "Fire" that are released when the Armageddon counter gets high, one after another. The first has the power to convert units, the second has a very high strength, the third corrupts the land he passes over and the last turns all units he kills into wraiths that follow him. Can you guess what the inspiration was?

The 4 horsemen of the apocolypse? So are they going to all be mounted units? Finally a use for pikemen!
We could sit here for a long time talking about all the references in FFH to other mythologies and such. For example, the 21 Angels are probably all related to something else like Ceridwen is from a Welsh legend and was a magician with a magical cauldron that could create a potion that would grant great knowledge and wisdom. No surprise after finding that about why it was Ceridwen who taught man magic in FFH.

Tell me will the arg counter make sounds when it gos up? For some reason I can't help but think I would here a gong sound if it did that.

Yeah, it has a unique sound both ways so you are notified when it changes.

You can download it from this link

http://www.3ddownloads.com/Strategy...ods/Fall From Heaven/FallfromHeaven2016j.exe#

It only works on vanilla civ4 1.61 (not warlords 2.08) with the latest patch.

Its gonna take about 2 hours at 38 k/sec

 

[Lord Neil]

ok thanks for the speedy reply

 

[Lord Neil]

it turns out my actual download speed is 3kbps and it would take me 24 hours to download it would it be possible to put the files on a disc then put it on my computer?
