Sumerian Rebalance Mod

This mod attempts to demonstrate a possible rebalance of Sumeria. The following changes are made:

• 28 strength, down from 30.

The extremely high base strength of War-Carts made them near-unstoppable early in the game.

• No longer completely resistant to anti-mounted bonuses. Instead, has +5 strength against anti-mounted units.

An unit this early without a counter is overpowered.

• +4 strength versus Barbarians

This change allows War-Carts to still perform at a similar level to before against Barbarian Spearmen.

• Now counts as a Heavy Chariot replacement

Who even builds Heavy Chariots as Sumeria, anyway?

• Provides +1 science at the renaissance-era Astronomy technology.

This is to ensure the improvement is still worthwhile later in the game.


This mod is more of a demonstration of an idea for a balance change rather than something that's necessarily going to be updated or expanded upon.

As someone with very little modding expertise, I will be unable to help if the mod doesn't function properly.

No DLC is required. The Rise and Fall expansion may or may not break it.
