Adventure Mod - New Faction Compatibility

Description
With this mod you can play as one of the new factions – EG Colonial Guard, Hoppers or Revenants – and combine it with the new units and mechanical changes from the Adventure Mod. This mod does not improve compatibility for the original factions but it removes happiness penalties and limited skill selection that otherwise would appear for non-vanilla factions.


FEATURES:

- Happiness penalties from terrain are completely removed
- All heroes have access to the Close Combat Specialist and Ranged Specialist skill segments

Originally I planned to create this as a stand-alone mod (with AoW3 modding tools this would have been the easier way). However, in Planetfall the better solution was actually to create it as an add-on mod that reverts the changes from the base mod. This means, the original Adventure Mod is required for this mod.

Hey, since this seems to be the most recent activity mod of yours: what happened to your plans of moving on to AoW4? Indefinitely postponed?
I'm not seeing any activity of you in the workshop there.

Alas, but with this mod and Colonial Guard enabled together the game constantly crashes in Archives

I'm not able to use two electric modifications on my units.

Well, I appreciate the trust that I could balace the mod ; ) However, it's still wolfie's mod and it would feel like an appropriation to publish my own version of it. Imho it's wolfies decision what changes he wants to add. The second issue is that his mods include just such a large number of new units that I'm far from having enough experience to really evaluate them.

could you balance wolfie's mod? some of units are too OP and some of units are useless...and wolfie quit support of modding.

Is it just this mod or can you generally not use mods with Planetfall?

Bummer I cannot use this mod. It actually shows in-game that I have both Adventure Mods installed, but nothing shows up. Am I missing something?

@Der Mentat Oh i see, so veterancy only works with the original factions. Thx for the quick answer, i'll try reverting back to another faction then. :steamthumbsup:

This mod doesn't add new upgrades to units from other mods, it just removes compatibility issues (otherwise some features wouldn't work as intended).

While the Colonial Guard units can use all mod slots from the beginning, they cannot benefit from as many medal rewards as the units from the original factions, and additionally they have their mod upgrade cost increased. So, to a degree the factions are still balanced.

Edit: I also used Nexus mod , maybe it's the reason for the Faction units not working properly?
