Lancers to cavalry
Created by mikeburnfire
This is a simple mod that changes the upgrade path for Lancers to Cavalry. The original upgrade path to Anti-tank Guns makes these units very underpowered for two whole eras. Q. What does this mod do? A. The only thing this mod changes is the upgrade path ...
African Forest Elephant Fix

Hakkapeliitta Mod

In the default game, a hakkapeliitta without a great general accompanying it (on the same tile nonetheless) is no different than the normal lancer it replaces. This also hinders the benefits of massing them once they're available like most other unique uni...

No Bad Mystic Blade

Stronger Guided Missile
Created by SuraFPinata
