Bump J/K
lol
After Playing other main Mods released to Balance Imp, I realize that March is too overpowered, it's a Combat 3 Promotion for a reason so I think it'd be better to give free Level 2 Promotions (eg-Combat 1, Drill 1, Barrage 1 & CR 1 is excluded of course imagine how Overpowered that be lol).
Free Flanking to Naval Units is also Overpowered as your only 2 promotions away from Navigation I & II and on Water Maps you'd run circles around your enemy.
Free Barrage I to Naval and Siege, just took too long for me to benefit compared to other Military Traits, which you benefit much early, Charismatic benefits all units, Aggressive benefits your Warrior Units and after Metal Units, and Protective benefits Archery Units and the Archery Tech is not very far from being research, that and Construction and a very long long way.
Anyways, if anyone is interested, I Decided To Release my version of an Improved Imp Trait, What I've done is Give Free Flanking I to all Mounted and Siege Units (Maybe I should include Helicopters?...Nah).
I'm not sure whether that'd balance out the Imp trait, but it'd need some testing so if anyone is bored or has free time to test it and out and come back and post their results and opinions of the change, their quite welcome too.
I've also Change the Flanking Promotions line just in case the Free Flanking I promotion might be considered overpowered.
Some of you might be thinking, HEY, won't Cyrus and Catherine And Khan's UU be Overpowered, Well... is Flanking I Really that overpowered? I guess that's the purpose of releasing this for testing huh?
lol
Here are the changes
Flanking II = 10% Withdrawal Rate, & Immune to First Strikes
Flanking III = 20% Withdrawal Rate
I'd also like to add Flanking IV which would to have the ability to Withdraw from Combat on the Defensive, It'd be a Level 5 Promotion so I'd consider it quite balance, a level 4 promotion for Imp Civs of course, they need some kind of advantage but sadly I suck at coding and I'm too lazy to Change the SDK Codes :S.
I'd also made an attempt to give the Imp trait a War weariness Bonus by Modifying the Civilization Shema and Traitsinfo XML Files, but it didn't work lol I realized it needed to also be changed in the SDK File...again too much work for me, if someone here has time and like to do so, PLEASE go ahead and post the files here, Do a -25% AND -50% WW Bonus to Imp.
Anyways I'll Post to 2 Saves.
The first one is the Free Flanking Promotions but removed the Settler Bonus
The second one is the same as the first one but included the Settler Bonus.
Both Files have the change of Flanking Promotions, if you want the change in Promotions removed just go into (Assets=>XML=>Units=>CIV4PromotionInfos.xml) and delete the CIV4PromotionInfos.xml File.
Enjoy.
