Mod: New Nation, Harabatia: Rise of the Raptors v1.00

[whiplashomega]

Rework heroes, got it. possible access to astral, right now one of their custom God chassis has astral as a predefined choice, but if I'm reworking the magic skills for the Master Harab hero as well I could switch it in there. Perhaps make him 3A2E3D2S? so a somewhat more powerful Harab Elder with Astral Magic instead of nature enough to summon the eagle king? Thanks for the feedback btw.

and the nature magic is just cause I like nature magic, and I made the mod for my own enjoyment first. Let me know how the trolls do in nation to nation combat, last thing we want is a group of five trolls taking out SCs.

Hey all,

Long time no update on here, but that was to be expected, following up on the last feedback and my own further play testing, I have made a number of additional changes to this mod. Most notably I added a couple new units and made some important balance changes, the Raptor Axe Warrior, a rather unremarkable unit which is basically the Raptorian Warrior with an axe instead of a sword, better damage, worse attack and defense. Then the more worthwhile wingless cloudgazer a rather unremarkable incredibly expensive astral mage, but it gives Harabatia non-pretender access to Eagle Kings. As for balance changes, Harab Trolls are now Capitol only, making them less feasible as a mid/late game weapon, other changes include reducing the magic skills and availability of some heroes removing the research bonus from the Eagle King pretender god. Besides that it was just some compatibility and house cleaning stuff. Full list of changes follows.
