Imperial Splendor(Mod)
Awesome painting suggestion by General A. Skywalker, awesome quote found by cherryfunk
Name changed due to conflict (for what is it, the 5th time now?) New name inspired by Enarion!
Formerly Quixote's Combat Overhaul and Quixote's Campaign AI
I started modding for Empire Total War because it wasn't the game that I wanted to play. Eventually that grew, and I kept modding Empire Total War because it wasn't the game that you guys wanted to play. Imperial Splendor (IS) is the culmination of those efforts.
The mod is attached at the bottom of this post. (Mods, if this isn't okay, just let me know and I'll rehost in on other servers, that was just becoming a real pain to keep up)
AI Changes:
The AI has been reworked nearly completely. It was redesigned to provide a sustainable challenge to the player. My goal is for the late game in Empire Total War to be just as fun and challenging as the early game.
To achieve that, I've reconfigured how the AI develops it's economy. It now has a much greater emphasis on constructing economic builds and educational buildings. You can bet that in the late game the AI will be swimming in as much cash as you are.
I've tried to capture the feeling of 18th century military and diplomatic give and take with the AI. If you want to maintain peace, you must use diplomacy to ensure that international relations remain strong. If you neglect this aspect of Empire Total War you will pay the price in countless lives as you struggle to stay alive during constant war.
I've also reworked how the AI develops and utilizes it's armies and navies. The AI will actively try to cripple your economy with it's navy through raiding trade routes and most of all blockading ports. The AI will exploit any chink in your armor, any weakness in your empire. If you leave a frontier province without a garrison or any sort of protection, the AI will seize the chance and try and take it from you. Similarly, it will exploit any other conflict you might be in for their own benefit.
It's not all doom and gloom. All of these changes will work for you, as well, because I've drastically changed how the AI aids it's allies. The ancient greeks specialized in a formation of spearmen called a phalanx. In that formation, you didn't guard yourself with your shield, you guarded the man next to you. So on down the length of the army. The AI will now be that man standing next to you, protecting you where you are weak, and striking where your collective enemies are vulnerable.
Naval Changes:
Unit Cost Changes
- Upkeep on Naval units remains the same, with the exception of trading vessels (All trading vessels now have 50 upkeep, though the proportional cost of Galleons and fluyts is much higher)
- Recruitment costs have been drastically increased. Currently recruitment costs are twenty times the upkeep cost of a vessel.
Quote:
You should build up your Navy over time, instead of recruiting it all at once like an Army. Capturing ships is a very viable tactic now, especially with the other changes you're about to read about.
- Galleys and Light Galleys have had their firepower dramatically reduced
- Xebecs have twice the crew they previously had
Quote:
Traditionally Xebecs were fantastic pirate vessels because they sailed well into the wind compared to square rigged vessels, and they had a very large crew size for their gun poundage. With the increase in their crew size, they are now great boarders. Their low slung silhouette prevents a lot of damage when you board, and with the increased crew size you can "punch up" in boarding combat against heavier enemies.
- Ships who lose 60% of their men are considered combat ineffective (not enough men left to sail the ship) and surrender
- Ships will route closer to 40% hull damage instead of 70%+
- Ship hull strength has been increased by 50%. Trading vessels and specialist ships (rocket ships and bomb ketches) have not had their hull strength increase.
- Carronade Frigates now use 64 pound Carronades
- Grapeshot and Improved Grapeshot has been increased in effectiveness.
- Chain shot has received a minor increase in effectiveness.
- Galleons and Fluyts now have a lower top speed
- Sloops and Xebecs are now noticably better going into the wind (approximately 35 degrees in either direction from the source of the wind) than other vessels
- Being shot astern has a larger morale penalty
- Ships can no longer turn in any reasonable time while stationary (Thanks DarthVader for working out the headings in the naval_stats file!)
- Ships turn much slower at low speeds
- Sailing into the wind is much slower
Quote:
The combination of those effects means that you DO NOT WANT to turn into the wind unless you're a galley, steamship, or you've built up a lot of speed and the momentum will carry you to your next tack. Big ships now FEEL big and heavy. Smaller ships now actually have a role in fleet engagements, because with these changes their manueverability and acceleration blows the big ships out of the water. You now need a balance of ship types to have an effective fleet. Not just as many 3rd rates as you can crank out.
- Decreased top speed for all ships 5th rate and up
Land Changes:
Unit Cost Changes
I've reworked all unit purchase prices and upkeep costs. You'll find overall that maintaining an army isn't economically straining. Keeping an army at full strength when it's actually fighting is going to cost a lot more money.
It breaks down as follows
I've doubled the cost of every unit, and the upkeep is roughly 15% of that price. For artillery the upkeep is roughly 10% and for cavalry it's roughly 25%
Infantry
- Squares are more effective against cavalry
- Infantry are more effective in melee against cavalry in general
- Infantry have had their accuracy in close ranges increased, with long range accuracy much worse than vanilla
- Double Barreled musket (grenzer) has had it's reload time increased. It'll take twice as long to reload as a regular musket, but it will still have twice the punch.
- Muskets have had their range increased to 100, rifles now have a maximum range of 175. Light Infantry are at 125. Though accuracy at these long ranges is terrible.
- Line Infantry has been standardized.
- Grenadier units (not grenade launcher units) are the same size as a regular unit of line infantry. They shoot as well as regular line infantry, poorer than a Guard unit. They shouldn't be wasted on a fire line - they should be there to punch a hole in the enemy lines with superior melee.
- Grenades are now less effective
- Sikh and Bargir musketeers are considered Trained. Sikh Musketeers have improved melee stats. Bargir have improved melee defense (they are wearing actual armor, after all).
- Light Infantry units are 50% larger. With the accuracy changes at longer ranges, they need more weight of fire per volley
- Melee units have had their stats increased. Sikh Warriors now have an inspiring aura to compensate for Marathas' lack of elite infantry.
- All matchlock armed citizenry now have the stats of Militia. Hopefully now blitzing won't work as well. (Thanks very much to Matte979 for this)
- All melee infantry units are now at least as large as Line Infantry
- Increased cost of Grenadiers and Elites
- I couldn't find a way to make a recruit cap for just England and France, so the unique Elite Infantry that these two factions get do not have the Inspiring Aura.
- Added Mountain Troops AKA Norwegian Ski Troops to the Swedish Roster
- Added unit limit for Sikh Warriors
- Removed Inspiring Aura from elite cavalry (hate to do this, but in late game some factions were just unbreakable in combat)
- Grenadiers can no longer Platoon Fire
- Grenadiers are now more expensive
- Elite infantry is now more expensive
- Light infantry is now more expensive
- Line infantry (and units that were the same size as line infantry) are now 25% larger
- Russian units have been decreased in size. They are now 20% larger than regular infantry units, and their stats have been changed to compensate.
Cavalry
- Cavalry have been reduced in size to 40% of a line infantry unit
- Dragoons maintain their large unit size
- Light Dragoons are slightly larger than regular cavalry units
- Cavalry costs have been increased across the board
- Cavalry stats (excepting Dragoons) have been increased to compensate for unit size loss
- Sword wielding cavalry are now exceptional melee combatants, but they charge poorly
- Lance wielding cavalry have a devastating charge, but are poor melee combatants
- Dragoons now have infantry levels of upkeep. Dragoons are poor cavalry, they truly are mobile infantry now.
Quote:
Traditionally, if infantry DID stand against a cavalry charge, the charge failed. Cavalry charges were only fatal when the infantry broke and tried to run. With the changes in morale, using cavalry to flank formations is much more valuable.
- General units are much smaller. The power of their inspirational aura has been increased, but they are too fragile to be used except in the most dire of combat situations.
- Dragoons have a much lower cavalry charge bonus. They are still a versatile unit, but they cannot charge like dedicated melee cavalry. Still excellent flankers, point guards, and at chasing down routing units. Dragoons also have slightly larger units.
Artillery
- Cannon Accuracy has been increased. They were responsible for more than 50% of the casualties back in the day, hopefully now they'll pull their weight a bit better.
- Decreased accuracy of Mortars significantly
- Decreased accuracy of Howitzers moderately
- Increased range of Howitzers and Cannons by 100, for a total of 500
- Artillery recruitment costs have been increased across the board. Upkeep costs remain the same
- Increased artillery unit size by 50%
- Cannister has increased in effectiveness and range
Universal
- Integration of Tighter Formations Mod, with many many thanks to lesterthenerd
- Morale has been standardized based on level of training a unit has. Elite units have high morale, 11. Well Trained units have 8. Trained units have 5. Poorly trained units have 3. Artillery still has low morale. Dedicated melee units are two steps higher on the training scale for morale. IE: A poorly trained melee unit has 8 morale.
Quote:
It's going to be very difficult to keep a poorly trained unit fighting. As was the case during this time period historically, many armies simply would not fight. They'd fire a volley, recieve a volley, and simply flee. Good use of your general is going to be key to keeping your army fighting. I'd especially like feed back about this change
- Ammunition capacity has been doubled for all units.
- Movement speed for all units have been decreased. You'll really notice moving through rough terrain, like woods, and you'll really notice it when it starts to rain
- Morale has been reworked. Units will route closer to 50% casualties lost instead of 80%+. Units will gain more benefit from nearby inspirational units, flank protection, and terrain. Units recieve a bigger penalty for being attacked in the rear or sides.
The new name is thanks to ColdFire for his excellent suggestion!
Due to the morale changes, I do not recommend setting the battle difficulty above Medium
Installation Instructions
Will all thanks going to Rammstein!

What's To Come:
I have a few more things I'd like to add to this mod. Unfortunately, they can't be done right now. I'm holding out for the official modding tools. When they arrive, here's what to expect -
- Campaign movement ranges will increase dramatically while in friendly territory and decrease dramatically while in enemy territory
- Diplomacy will be reworked to the same extent that every other aspect of the game has been reworked.
- Increased use for the Rake and the Gentleman (Hopefully, though this may be hardcoded and impossible to change)
- Battle AI will be reworked heavily
- The tech tree will be adjusted, with 4 new lines. Each line will increase a pair of stats for Line Infantry (reloading skill and ammo capacity, accuracy, melee skill and charge, and melee defense and morale). The starting stats of all line infantry will be lowered. This creates more unit variety (something Empire is lacking), and it gives more strategic choices to the player. There might also be a naval version of this change.

nach allem was ich entziffern konnte hört sich das ja schonmal recht gut an....wäre jemand vllt willens eine deutsche Übersetzung anzufertigen??
Ich werde mal gucken das ich einige Mods die was taugen hier herein verfrachte da manche doch nicht so Bezug in andere Foren haben.
Ne Übersetzung wäre nicht schlecht aber mein Englsich ist nicht ausreichend. Oder würde Stunden dauern.

Ich bin dann mal so frei das ganze für die nicht-Englischsprachler ins Deutsche zu übersetzen....
Großartiger Gemäldevorschlag von "General A. Skywalker", und prima Zitat gefunden von "cherryfunk"
Namensänderung aufgrund von Konflikten (für das wievielte mal, das 5te mal?) Die Inspiration kam von Enarion!
Ursprünglisch "Quixote's Combat Overhaul" und "Quixote's Campaign AI"
Ich fing an für Empire: Total War zu modden da es nicht das Spiel war welches ich spielen wollte. Dies wuchs, und ich moddete weiter da es nicht das Spiel war welches ihr spielen wolltet. Imperial Splendor (IS, Imperiale Herrlichkeit) ist die Zusammenfassung dieser Bemühung.
Der mod ist am Ende des Posts. (Admins/Mods, sollte dies nicht erwünscht sein bitte Bescheid geben und ich werde es neu hochladen, es war nur extrem lästig dies immer zu tun.)
Änderungen an der KI:
Die KI wurde komplett neugestaltet. Sie wurde gestaltet um dem Spieler eine sich erhaltende Herausforderung zu bieten. Mein Ziel ist das späte Spiel genauso spaßig und herausfordernd zu gestalten wie den Anfang.
Um dies zu schaffen habe ich die das ekonomische Verhalten der KI neu konfiguriert. Es setzt nun eine höhere Priorität auf Wirtschafts und Forschungsgebäude. Du kannst nun damit rechnen dass die KI im späten Spiel genauso viel Geld hat wie du.
Ich habe versucht die Essenz des Flairs des Militärs und der Diplomatie des 18. Jahrhunderts in der KI zu verkörpern. Wenn du Frieden erhalten willst musst du Diplomatie nutzen um zu gewährleisten dass deine internationalen Beziehungen stark und gut bleiben. Wenn du dieses Aspekt von Empire: Total War vernachlässigst wirst du den Preis in endlosen Leben, in denen du versuchst im andauerndem Krieg am Leben zu bleiben, zu zahlen.
Ich habe auch das Verhalten der KI überarbeitet was das Aufbauen und Verhalten ihrer Armeen angeht. Die KI wird nun tatsächlich versuchen deine Ekonomie zu schwächen indem sie Handelsrouten plündert und Häfen blockiert. The KI wird jede Schäche in deinem Imperium ausnutzen.
Wenn du eine Grenzregion ohne Garrison or andere Verteidigung lässt wird die KI the Chance ergreifen and versuchen diese dir wegzunehmen. Gleichermaßen wird sie auch alle anderen Konflikte in denen du dich befindest zu ihrem Vorteil nutzen.
Es ist nicht alles nur Verzweiflung und Untergang. Diese Veränderungen weren auch für dich arbeiten da ich auch verändert habe wie die KI ihren Verbündeten hilft. Die alten Griechen waren in der Phalanx spezialisiert. In dieser Formation nutztest du kein Schild, du beschütztest den Mann neben dir. Und so weiter die ganze Armee entlang. Die KI wird nun der Mann neben dir sein, und dir helfen wo du schwach bist und angreifen wo deine Armeen in Gefahr sind.
Veränderungen in der Marine:
Veränderungen der Einheitenkosten:
- Instandhaltungkosten der Marineeinheiten bleibt, mit ausnahme der Handelsschiffe. (Diese Kosten nun 50 pro Zug, wobei die proportionalen kosten der Galleone und Fluyten viel höher ist.)
- Baukosten wurden drastisch erhöht. Momentan kosten Marineeinheiten 20mal so viel wie ihre Instandhaltekosten.
Zitat:
Du solltest deine Marine über einen längeren zeiraum aufbauen, nicht alles auf einmal. Schiffe zu kapern ist nun eine sehr profitable Taktik, besonders mit den folgenden Veränderungen:
- Die Feuerkraft von Galleys and Light Galleys wurde herabgesetzt.
(Die Schiffe mit den Rudern, weiß nicht wie die in Deutsch heißen 
)
)mark with mouse to read text
- Xebecs haben nun die zweifache Mannschaft.
- Schiffe die 60% ihrer Männer im Kampf verlieren werden alls inefektiv eingeschätzt und ergeben sich.
- Schiffe flüchten näher an 40% Rumpfschaden anstatt 70%+.
- Schiffrumpfschaden wurde um 50% erhöht. Außer bei Handelsschiffen und Spezialistenschiffen.
- Karronadefrigatten benutzen nun 64-Pfünder Karronaden
- Kartätschen und Verbesserte Kartätschen sind nun effektiver.
- Kettenschüsse sind etwas weniger effektiv.
- Galleonen und Fleuten haben nun eine geringere Höchstgeschwindigkeit.
-Schaluppen und Xebexs sind nun bemerkbar besser darin gegen den Wind zu fahren (~35° in beide Richtungen ingegen dem Wind) als andere Schiffe.
- Von Hinten beschossen zu werden verursacht einen größeren moralischen Schaden.
- Schiffe können sich nun nicht mehr in einer vernünftigen Zeitspanne drehen währen sie stationär sind. (Dank an DarthVader dafür dass er die headings in der naval_stats file entzifferte!)
- Schiffe drehen sich viel langsamer ei langsameren Geschwindigkeiten
- In den Wind zu segeln ist viel langsamer
- Geringere Höchstgeschwindigkeiten für Schiffe der 5. Klasse und höher.
Veränderungen der Landeinheiten:
MACH ICH SPÄTER, einer Stunde reicht aus
Zitate kommen auch noch, also ungefähr 50% geschafft.
direkt Englisch schreiben ist schneller >.>
if Quixote07 reads this: Damn you for writing so much
just kidding, keep it up.

RE: Imperial Splendor(Mod)
DAs hört sich wirklich sehr nett an, allerdings bereits beim ersten Satz:
kam ich ins grübeln.. Aus Sicht von Darth und einiger anderen Modder ist es derzeit unmöglich weitgreifende Einschnitte in der KI vorzunehmen.. Sprich Präoritäten verändern etc. ist drin, mehr aber anscheinend nicht.
Ich habe ein bisschen Sorge, dass er das einwenig zu sehr verherrlicht, was er da gemacht hat und am Ende doch nur eine der Darth-Mod sehr ähnliche Mod dabei herauskommt.. weil einige Präoritäten ändern sehe ich nicht als "Ki wurde fast komplett überarbeitet" an..
aber lasse mich gerne eines besseren belehren.

Ich mag seine Veränderungen an den Werten der spezifischen Einheiten nicht... Grenadiere sind mit diesem Mod total overpowered... keine Ahnung was er sich dabei gedacht hat...
Linieninfanterie verliert total an bedeutung.. das einzige was ich unterstütze sind seine Marine Änderungen... die gefallen mir sehr...
Dazu kommt das er alle Einheiten Nations-Übergreifend von den Werten gleich gemacht hat... so verliert jede Nation ihr bisschen Individualismus.
Jede Linieninfanterie besitzt mit dieser Mod die selben Werte
Solange es keine Marine-Landungen gibt, und solange es noch keinen Zugang zu den Hard Coded Files gibt kann man derzeit sowieso nichts machen als Script Zahlen ändern und mit Photoshop rumspielen...
Alles was bis jetzt rauskahm sind keine Mods... da kann mir einer erzählen was er will... das sind zwar modified Scripts Files... aber das ist keine MOD...

Tja was heißt den Mod? Eben Modifikationen. Und deshalb "Die" an alle die immer der oder sogar das Mod schreiben.
Also die Bezeichnung Mod ist nicht falsch. Nur versteht man unter ner Mod natürlich mehr aber es geht halt nicht mehr.

Während Darths KI-Mod 0.5 bei mir einwandfrei funktioniert, bekomme ich bei diesem Mod ständige Abstürze sobald die KI offenbar eine diplomatische Aktion starten will.
Die KI-Armeen agieren zwar relativ gut und die höhrern Anschaffungs- bzw niedrigeren Instandhaltungskosten gefallen mir auch gut, aber was mir an "Imperial" Splendor" überhaupt nicht gefällt sind ständige Kriegserklärungen und Überraschungsangriffe von befreundeten oder gar geschätzten Fraktionen, da wurde einfach maßlos übertrieben.
Ich bleibe daher bei Darth, der zudem über deutlich mehr Erfahrung verfügt. (und den Namen seiner Mod nicht alle 5 Minuten ändert
).

Jesus war kein gewöhnlicher Mensch. Zwischen ihm und jedem anderern gibt es keinen Vergleich. Alexander, Cäsar, Karl der Große und ich haben Weltreiche gegründet. Aber auf was gründeten wir diese? Auf Gewalt. Jesus gründete sein Reich auf Liebe; und zu dieser Stunde würden Millionen Menschen für ihn sterben.

Da muss ich dir etwas widersprechen.
Die Grenadiere behandelt er als Elite Infanterie, daher die haben jetzt die anzahl einer normalen Infanterie außerdem sind Granaten nicht mehr so effektiv wie im original und Peletonfeuer hatt er auch entfernt.
Jede Lieneninfaterie besitzt die gleiche Moral,Nahkampf,Verteidigungs Punke allerdings können z.B die Preußen schnell schiessen 25 Punkte als z.B die Polen mit 20 Punkten, es gibt auch noch andere unterschiede am Besten selber mal anschauen.
Das bis jetzt keine "richtigen" MODS rauskommen liegt wohl daran das CA nicht in der Lage ist ein DEV tool abzuliefern, wenn wundert es die müssen ja erst mal ihre Beta Software hotfixen

Was ist denn für euch ein "richtiges" mod? Für mich ist jede Veränderung der Spieldateien die man dann veröffentlich ein mod, einige sind halt kleiner als andere.
Wenn ihr mit "richtigem" mod eins meint, das das ganze Spiel umkrempelt, werdet ihr euch noch eine Weile gedulden müssen - schließlich machen Modder das nur in ihrer Freizeit und sind auch keine Zauberer

Naja.... finde er hat schon Recht, gerade kann man nicht von "richtigen" Mods sprechen weil CA einfach noch nicht die Möglichkeiten dazu gibt. Im Vergleich zu Rome oder MTW2 kann man kaum große Veränderungen vornehmen.
Ich gib dir in den Punkt recht, das wir uns auf große Mods -> Die hoffentlich das ganze Spiel (Grade in historischer Korrektheit) verändern noch gedulden müssen.

Wird mit der Mod auch endlich die KI so verändert das sie Schiffe benutzt um Landeinheiten zu transportieren oder bleiben Inseln immernoch uneinnehmbare Festungen für die KI ??
Die Inseln bleiben bis auf weiteres von einer KI-Invasion zur See verschont. Das die KI nicht von See aus landen kann ist leider Hardcoded und muss von CA gepatched werden.
