The Last Airbender: Total War V0.83 Released!


Welcome to the release of the new version (v0.83). After the release of V0.80 I got many requests and feedback to add and change things like better balancing regarding the economy and public order. Aside from the need for balancing I have added many new things such as more heroes, mercenaries, new buildings and ancillaries. Now parts of Book 1 are also incorpirated into the main campaign in the form of roleplay with ancillaries and traits. Want to find Momo? or kill the moon with the great admiral Zhao? It is possible. In future releases this will be expanded on much further. Various other things have been changed as well to improve stability, tanks now work and have spinning wheels. The catapults have been removed as they are still bugged and will be replaced with new ones further down the road.

There is now also an included bat file in the modfolder to make starting up the mod easier for those that prefer it that way!

known issue when your game crashes at start up after installation:

-You extracted it in the wrong way which means you get:

../rome total war/alexander/avatar_v0.83/avatar

or:

../rome total war/avatar

instead of:

../rome total war/alexander/avatar

The Future:
Recently Rome Total War Remastered has been announced, for now nothing is sure but I will try to port the mod and see if it is possible. If it is I will ofcourse release a new updated version for it.
