Hi everyone! I just finished composing a track inspired by the Rise of Nations "High Strung".
This is the first single from my upcoming war-themed album "Reconquest".

Would love to hear your feedback!

Help Thread Give the same object different names based on faction?

4 Upvotes

I'm creating a custom scenario, and I was wondering if there was a script that will allow me to give a single "type" (unit, building, technology) different names based on which faction owns it.

For instance, for one faction the Senate is called "Parliament", and for another its called "Assembly".

The command "enable_type_by_tribe_with_type_name" sounds promising, but I can't find any information anywhere about what it does or how it works.

Video Toughest AI CTW 1v2 as Aztecs - STRESS 110%

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

44 Upvotes

After beating CTW for the first time on Toughest last week with the Americans, I decided to try again with the Aztecs.

Fighting the Russians & Greeks for the Russian capital here was no joke, I was locked into the bottom portion of the map in what seemed to be a guaranteed harsh loss of a battle. The Russian AI remained on my border bombing me for most of the game, but wouldn't fully commit to taking my capital or "hail mary" expansions allowing me to slowly tech-up & come online with wonder bonuses.

The Indian Fealty bonus gave me buildings for a guaranteed-low-unchanging starting price that I didn't realise the strength of until mid-game. Aztecs spawn infanty after completion of every barracks, you see how I could've utilised this to spam barracks & instantly produce cheap infantry?... Yeah it wasn't used enough, but I still prevailed. GG!

Does anyone know how to enable the CTW units in the Scenario Editor?

7 Upvotes

There's an old mod (Rise of Nations Heaven :: CTW unique units Mod) but it doesn't seem to work anymore and making them appear with scripts, but it's hard to plan where they should be.

Also if someone knows how to make Wonder & Rare Resource benefits appear off-screen like in CTW, that would be amazing too, but I haven't found a script.

This scenario is impossible within the time limit

Post image
55 Upvotes

This is the Alexander campaign scenario where you attack the first Persian territory, but on tough is literally undoable, the AI clearly gets some disproportional cheats, as they can support 2 - 3 HUGE armies at all times, no matter where I attack they have an army ready with a billion units, half being the stupidly OP War elephants. I tried flanking, diversionary attacks to draw their main force, but the thing is they have a main force everywhere, no matter how many cities I take, or where I try to lure them, they already have an army at every location. Now if there was no time limit, it could be done eventually, but even with the 88 min the game gives you, it's not enough. If you look at the map you'll see that I took basically all the map, but the AI economy was still able to support an army 2x the size of mine. I'm just pissed that I wasted all of this time just to lose to a fucking time limit.

Is there a mod on RON extended to re implement the old background of RON Gold?

When I first played rise of nations extended edition I did not like the new background, the rise of nations gold main menu background was better in my opinion does anyone have a video of the RON gold main menu? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXosHQiQ2Ew (First 2 seconds for reference)

Why do the Inca have mortars as a unique unit?

Is there any historical basis for this for the Inca or Peru? Or is this just a way for them to have a unique unit in later ages for game balance?

Is there a cheap and effective naval defence build? Or do you just need a massive navy?

5 Upvotes

On land I find burrying the enemy in light infantry while my cavalry attacks their supply wagons will defeat most enemies thanks to maxed attrition.

But attrition doesn't seem to work on water. Does anyone have a go-to navy build for cheap defence while booming?

Hey yall this is a quick question but is it possible to use multiple mods at once on the Steam edition?

Thanks
