I did some modding back in the day but burned out back. I'm getting back into the fray now and updating my mods to dom4. I recall in the previous thread someone mentioned that they had a miserable time against my warhammer dwarf mod because their castles were too hard to siege due to national siegedef bonuses. I'm going to lower them for dom4. I was just wondering if anyone else can recall their experiences and give suggestions for fixes and the like. Goons probably did not bother to report them in the dom3mods forums. If you don't want to poo poo up the thread you can e-mail me at (insert my username here)@hotmail.com My mods are/were EA Alugra MA Bretonnia MA Dwarfs

I don't recall any real blatant rock/paper/sciccors mechanics in dominions. Flails get a hidden +2 bonus to attack against shields. There are a lot of hard-counters in the spell department (like arrow fend against archers), but I can't think of any in the troop department. High damage units (greatsword humans, giants) are good against high protection. High encumberance units are sometimes good to counter with chaff, especially battle summon spam (swarm, raise skeletons). Dual wielders clear chaff and low protection HP sponges well. Shielded units are good against missiles. There usually are few units in a nation that are obviously best for expanding and thus most used, but it helps to pay attention to what units the enemy is wielding.

I think that you cannot kill yourself with spell fatigue, you will just go to 200 fatigue. Slaves however can die.

EA Ermor gets a H4 hero (Primate), MA Marignon has one (Cardinal, I think?), LA C'tis has one (First King) and so does Bogarus.

So yeah. I did a thing where I updated the "Worthy Heroes" mod to dom4. It was long time ago assimilated into CBM, but llamabeast asked me to update the hero portion to dom4. It basically adds more heroes, especially to nations that have few of them and beefs weak heroes, especially the human "almost-thug" heroes. Download, hero list and other further detail in the desura thread. http://www.desura.com/games/dominions-4-thrones-of-ascensions/forum/thread/worthy-heroes If you want to contribute heroes, or hero ideas. Use the thread or fire me up in IrC.

brainwrinkle posted:Can any Dominions modding experts tell me if it is possible to make an All Agartha mod (where every nation is Agartha)? Because I will totally put an All Agartha game up if that is feasible. I think it is possible. People had all MA Ulm or only markata games in the past. There are few hurdles you have to go through (make every nation a different flag, otherwise the map gets really confusing) and you need to create copies of the national heroes for each nation. People on IrC should help you get started. EDIT: I'm not 100% sure of this but I think you could also play on a modded map that has those seal sites sprinkled in. And I think those too could perhaps be broken. Maximum brakage. Burnsaber fucked around with this message at 07:51 on Nov 14, 2013 |

There is a bug in the current version where mindless units do not get their siege defense penalty. This probably makes ermor a pain in the butt.

MagnumOpus posted:With the sale today I finally managed to convince a bunch of my friends to pick up this game but half of them don't have SA accounts so I guess GGS is out for us. I'm having some trouble wrapping my head around the other options (Dom4Minions, Llamaserver, etc) and the hosting script pastebin in the OP is dead. Is anyone familiar with them that can compare their features and ease of use? Here is a FAQ on how to use the llamaserver. I like llamaserver, but that might just be due to 4 years of conditioning. http://z7.invisionfree.com/Dom3mods/index.php?showtopic=1890 There is probably one for dom4minions but I don't use it myself so it would take effort to dig it out. EDIT: you might want to make sure that all of you have upgraded to 4.04 before sending pretenders, or odd things might happen! Burnsaber fucked around with this message at 07:53 on Jan 8, 2014 |

Flython posted:Are there any VLPs of Dominions 4 that people would recommend? I've greatly enjoyed the SSLPs on this site but I'd love to see the game in motion to better appreciate what playing it is actually like before I take the plunge. Like mentioned Maerlande did some videos for dom4. He is rather good MP player and talks mostly about stragedy. http://www.youtube.com/user/Maerlande2/videos There is Marcus Aurelius dude who did this sort of tutorial LP for dom4. He seems to avoid the common pitfalls of youtube LP's. No shrieking and no constant rape jokes. He's not the best player though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMIQfYIkrjA
