Austria-Hungary nation mod for Rise of Nations Extended Edition

UPDATE: I decided that this mod was a little thin on content so I am happy to release an update to this mod. I have changed the K.u.K Rifleman unit into K.u.K Stosstruppen, a unique submachine gun armed assault infantry for Austria-Hungary in the industrial age. I have also added a new unique unit: the Beutepanzer to give Austria-Hungary a unique industrial era tank.



Hello again! Kaiser_Mobius here with another simple nation mod for Rise of Nations Extended Edition. For this mod, I have added the old empire of Austria-Hungary to the game! This mod replaces the default Persian nation with Austria-Hungary.

Although I had been planning on doing an Arab or North African country for my next country mod project, I suddenly had the idea to do a very simple Austria-Hungary mod instead. For this, I have focused on the Industrial era of the game, giving Austria-Hungary a few unique units to represent Austria-Hungary's involvement in the First World War. The player can use riflemen of the K.u.K (Imperial and Royal) Army for their standard infantry, backed up by Hungarian manned Anti-Tank rifle heavy infantry. Austria-Hungary can also build uniquely decorated Albatross Biplane fighters, which were supplied to Austria-Hungary during the war by Germany. Finally, just because I wanted to give Austria-Hungary another unique unit to use, I activated for them the Ironclad warship in the Enlightenment age, a unit that is already present in the files and IIRC is usually only available to the American faction in the New World singleplayer Campaign. If you want to play as Austria-Hungary beyond the Industrial era, I have programmed them to utilize the Axis style infantry, tanks, planes, and other vehicles used by nations like the Romans or Spanish in the modern age of the game.

As always, to download, just click the subscribe button. To play as Austria-Hungary, start a single player custom game, with Persia selected as the player nation. Then just select the Austria-Hungary mod from the mods drop down bar, and the mod should work.

Like with the other mods I have published, please feel free to let me know ASAP of any bugs or problems you may have with using the mod. I am also very much open to new suggestions for things like future nation mods, or improvements to this mod as well. I am especially interested in any ideas for more unique units for Austria-Hungary, as admittedly I felt like I was scraping the bottom of the barrel idea wise for unique units to give them. If you have any good ideas, please leave a comment and I will see what I can do!

With all of that out of the way, I hope you enjoy the mod! Happy New Year!
