I'm not any good at art, so none of that's original, but everything else is. The changed files are included and changed sections are marked by the tag "Faeries".
Here is (more or less) the changelog:
Basically, the Faeries are split into a Summer and Winter Court (represented as civics), each with its own units, and terrain. Whenever you switch between Winter and Summer Courts, your units all change too.
The Summer Court gradually turns all your terrain to Grassland, and plants forests. The Civic also gives an extra health per city, -10% maint. and allows you to hurry with gold.
The Winter Court freezes your empire, gives +10% production, +10% maint. Each one has a ritual that you must complete, and then you build a third ritual that allows the Eternal Court.
The Eternal Court gives bonus production, culture, and GP points. It allows the units of Winter and Summer, and transforms your terrain to Never Never, and grows Eternal Forests. Both of these grant yields to the Faeries. Eternal Forests also transform plant resources to Eternal Fruits, Horse and Cow to Unicorns, pig and sheep to toads.
Every Faerie starts with a color that gives it special abilities. Once you get Eternal Court, these become stronger.
Also all the Court unique units have special auras that give city bonuses. The Summer Court ones all boost your cities, while the Winter Court ones hurt enemy cities.
General Unique Units:
Summer Court Unique Units:
Winter Court Unique Units:
The Eternal Court has a unique Immortal. called Fae Lord, that has ice and nature promotions, and all Faerie colors
Buildings:
Hero: Foxfire, magical beast available at Divine Essence, splits after combat
Leader: Larincsidhe, Spiritual and Charismatic, gains Raiders during Winter Court, and Fae for Eternal Court, (basically summoner, but also used as requirement for Eternal Court)
World Spell: Berjarl, summons Erlking, who has Hidden Nationality and combat duration, creates Wild Hunters from combat who are identical, but weaker. (I originally wanted to have this summon Erlking and Wild Hunters all at once, but I couldn't get that to work, so if someone could change that I'd be grateful)
Once all four Fae Lords have been built, you can construct a ritual that restores Larincsidhe to his original power as a semi-god, with affinity for Eternal Fruits
Archers can buy a promotion that grants collat. damage, and Arcane units, on Spirit Mill can get a promotion that increases spell range. Arcane units also have a spell that adds a promotion to enemy units that does damage every turn
For the Rife version, now compatible with 1.22.2, just paste in the Art folder, and replace Python and Xml folders with the ones attached. Listed are some changes:
Let me know what you think of this, I'm always open to suggestions
