Title: SotK's Spain Mod

So, I mentioned I always thought it would be fun to play as Spain (Carthage crossed with barbarians seemed good). Phoenix said that they are bad, but I tried them out anyway. Sure enough, their unit selection made me want to cry. Just Carthage-lite with some naked guys. Oh and a couple of decent unique units, but they are only available from cities. When a nation that was famed for the prowess of its warriors has RTW's Iberian Infantry as their most easily accessible unit that isn't Town Militia/Peasants, and their only good troops come from a maxed out barracks or a single temple, there is a problem.

Problems are fixed by modding!

I recently played the swap game with Thrace and was struck by their limited roster and similar to Spain they felt like Macedon-lite with a bit of Dacia thrown in. While this is a bit more exotic than Carthage and naked fanatics, they still didn't feel like they were a faction with their own identity that would give a memorable experience to play as. So I added some hoplites and some more cavalry. Then things escalated!

This is true. Hopefully I won't do my usual running out of motivation trick when I get round to adding these as a custom battle faction to Britannia BC ;) .

As far as a Phalanx goes, the Turdetanii were heavily influenced by both Punic and Hellenic culture. Perhaps they might be a good way to get a phalanx in?

Regarding javelins, I take it you have increased the missile attack to represent that the soliferum was... nasty?

Can't wait to see what else you've been working on.
Title: Re: SotK's Spain Mod
Post by: Son of the King on February 09, 2012, 06:55:31 AM
Hmm. It certainly could work. I know that there was Greek influence, that's why I was thinking about adding phalanx in the first place. You're right though, that's probably a good way to get them in :) .

As for the missiles, armour piercing and good attack ;D .

Post by: Son of the King on February 12, 2012, 10:42:57 PM
Thanks guys!

I was just thinking, would it be a good or bad idea to have more barbarian-style units and a special building to recruit them from rather than recruiting them from temples like in vanilla?
Title: Re: SotK's Spain Mod
Post by: Phoenixguard09 on February 13, 2012, 01:15:59 AM
Hmmm, well what units were you thinking?

But I do agree with having a barracks type thing rather than temples. Temples should be for the absolute elite I think.

EDIT* So just the Bull Warriors from the temples and have Celtiberian swordsmen and perhaps archers from some sort of Mustering Hall type thing.

Wow, it would have been a real shame to loose all that work, especially on maybe one of the weakest factions of RTW (together with Numidia)! Can I suggest something though? Forget the phalanx... Iberian tribes were known for their mobility. You would neglect this tactical advantage they had by giving them phalanx type units. Aside of that, no other complaints :P

Rebalancing lead to a new culture, but that's how I roll...

Anyhow, there is now a release-able mod here, with minimal bugs as far as I have found. Going to playtest some more then release between now and Friday! This release will include some new buildings, however they (with the exception of a certain, important one) won't appear on battle maps just yet. Also Spain won't be awful anymore (although fighting Romans should provide a nice challenge)!

No phalanx yet (sorry Phoenix :P ) but I may add an AOR where Hellenic colonies were historically to allow recruitment of some kind of hoplites there. Cantabrian Archers have become just Archers, without an AOR. This is partly because I can't think of anything that justifies them being Cantabrian as opposed to anything else. Celtiberian Swordsmen come from the Celtiberian Barracks I added, not the temple as the OP says. Other Celtiberian units may/will be added in due course. Caetrati from the first level of barracks could be a little overpowered, but that's what the next day is for discovering.

Scutarii Lanceari from a Large Town barracks was definitely overpowered. To fix this, I added them only at Minor City level. However, I didn't like the feel of this, and also I didn't like how quickly Scutarii became obsolete with a more powerful version available at Minor City level. This is what lead to adding a new culture. I tried to add a fourth city level to the barbarian culture, but only allow the Iberians to build up to it. This worked for a few hours, albeit with an error when I quit the game. I then added in UIs and some stuff, and the error that I was getting on quit became a CTD on campaign start. So now Iberians are a separate culture, because I'm pretty sure that was the only way to get what I wanted. And besides, it makes editing the settlement plans a little easier (if I ever get my head around how to use them).

How was this accomplished?

First, I copied the barbarian entry in descr_cultures, renamed it to Iberian and added an additional settlement level. I then changed Spain's culture from barbarian to Iberian in descr_sm_factions. Then I opened EDB and used find and replace to replace barbarian with barbarian, iberian. That was the quick part done with.

Next I spent about an hour going through export_buildings in the text folder making a culture specific entry for each building the Iberians have. I then copied the barbarian ui folder into my modfolder's ui folder and called it iberian. Then I changed the prefix of all the images in there from barbarian to iberian. that also took a while.

Now I added settlement plans to the Iberians. Basically I added iberian to all the barbarian entries in descr_settlement_plan (and then added an entry for them in the plan sets list near the end of the file, again using the barbarian set). I also copied the barbarian entries in descr_banners and descr_sm_settlements, adding the extra settlement level for Iberians in the latter.

I then added an Iberian entry wherever there was a relevant Barbarian entry in the other files in the text folder (I think the only ones I needed to change were expanded_bi and menu_english) and added an Iberian copy of the barbarian diplomacy messages in diplomacy.txt.

This gave me a working (albeit silent) Iberian culture in addition to the six already in the game. Pretty sure 7 is the hardcoded limit after reading around though...

To make sound like music and speeches appear I added iberian to the entries for barbarian in descr_sounds_music, descr_sounds_stratmap, descr_sounds_units_confirm, export_descr_sounds_prebattle, export_descr_sounds_stratmap_voice, export_descr_sounds_units_battle_events.

Will do, but sadly I get the same loading problem, the game just freezes and stops loading. I had to ctrl-alt-delete to get out of there and it said that the rtw.exe wasn't responding.

I have no clue what it could be. If it's fixable, I will wait till it gets fixed before I release it for you on TWC

Great to see this being done, spain in vanilla was highly disappointing! Downloaded and played a bit and all seems to work fine for me, though loading is a bit slower than normal, but that's not really an issue.

One thing I have found though is an inability to build fleets. I have ports at Asturica, Scallabis, Numantia and Carthago Nova but none of them seem to be able to recruit boats like in the unit descriptions. Since it hasn't been mentioned I thought I'd also ad that farms are showing a warning on description text.

But overall I love it! Keep up the good work!

I took account of the above advice and messed around with the hoplites some more.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Also, thureophoroi (read weakened heavy peltasts with spears as their secondary weapon). I think I will use these to replace militia hoplites. They are actually marginally better in my opinion (slightly better armour, has a ranged weapon, same spears, although lack phalanx ability) and therefore are more expensive. I'll play a campaign with them replaced and see what its like compared with my game with militia hoplites in instead. They'll have a stronger version (Thorakitai) available to fill the role that I would have used them for as heavy peltasts. They will be a high-level range unit though, rather than from a basic barracks.

Thanks :) .

First up on the cavalry list are the Getic Lancers (Thrace own Campus Getae, lets give them some Getae horsemen :D ). They fill a similar role to Macedon's light lancers, albeit with a weaker charge. Their shields make up for that difference though.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The second addition is the Thracian Noble Cavalry. I kinda cheated a little here, they are just the General's Bodyguard guys. Excellent shock cavalry, recruitable from a level 3 stables (Hippodrome?).

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I'm removing the Greek cavalry, since that spot is filled by the Getic Lancers. However, Getic Lancers will be recruited from a basic stables alongside Militia Cavalry. The second level of stables will add some horse archers, as yet unimplemented. Then finally the third level will add the Thracian Noble Cavalry.

That gives the following roster:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The elite hoplites are those pictured earlier in the thread, they are similar to armoured hoplites belonging to the Greek Cities. Thracian Hoplites will be similar to the standard Greek hoplites.

I am happy with the (deliberately) varied infantry roster, that represents the blend of barbarian culture and Hellenism that vanilla failed to capture.

Maybe I will turn this into a "fix factions failed by vanilla" mod :D .

I learnt about -ai, and ran a campaign yesterday. I was following the Julii so I didn't manage to reach the conclusion since Spain eliminated them on their way to conquering all of Italy and starting on the Brutii's stuff in Greece...

In an earlier game I was following Macedon, and Thrace demolished them. In the second game Macedon fought Thrace off and Thrace ended up just fighting Scythia until the Brutii came. I feel like they are nicely balanced, but Spain need work!

You only just found out about -ai? It's like the most useful command line ever!

Do a frontpage!

(Seriously, we need something new on the frontpage, we've still got the C&M day stuff from mid-February up.)
