Description

Adds The Darkspawn as a playable civilization, under leadership of The Archdemon. Gods and Kings required.

UA: The Horde: Reduces unit maintenance costs by 50%, but decreases science gain by 25%.
UU: Hurlock: Replaces Swordsman. A little bit weaker and a fair bit cheaper than the swordsman. Does not require iron to build.
UU: Genlock: Replaces Composite Bowman. A little bit weaker and a fair bit cheaper than the archer.

The Darkspawn are geared towards early domination, by building up large armies very early. Their Unique Units are made to outnumber and overwhelm the enemies before they can build up a suitable resistance.

The Darkspawn are the first of a series of civilizations from the Dragon Age Universe. It is my first attempt at modding, and I hope to bring out high quality mods in the future. I have not tested The Darkspawn as much as I'd have like to, as they do not fit my personal playstyle very well, so your feedback is appreciated.

I will be making the following civilizations, and perhaps more. If you have any suggestions I'd be glad to hear them.
The Civilizations: (In no particular order)

The Darkspawn (Done)
Ferelden
Orlais
The Free Marches
The Tevinter Imperium
The Dwarves
The Dalish
The Qunari

The Dragon Age franchise belongs to Bioware, not me.

If you wanted to build a horde civilization, that zergs its enemies through sheer numbers, it would have been best to give them a significant bonus to military production, not just unit maintenance, that applies to all eras. As it is, The Darkspawn civ has a chance to gain an advantage only in the early eras, if it can overrun a neighbor in the classical era, with its cheaper swordsmen and comp bowmen equivalents.

Hey there, I haven't played Civ5 in a while, and started to play it again, and I thought making a Blight Scenario would be cool, but for some reason after making my scenario for it, it would not load, it stopped at the loading screen and said not responding several times. What do you think could be causing this, also do you know how to fix this.

Perhaps it is just my particular setup of mods, but was it intended for Hurlocks and Genlocks to be unupgradeable? It makes it difficult to continue fighting when your veteran units are outmatched by musketeers without rebuilding your entire army as soon as you finally get to steel+.

Other than that, great job! I think the 25% reduced science might be a little too harsh, but only a little. I got stuck on an island with only one victim to play with until I could get to astronomy and cross the ocean. On the bright side, nobody saw Denmark quietly disappear off the face of the earth. Muahhahaha...
...Then I won through diplomacy anyway. High tech armies beat small long-distance hordes from another continent.
