Wood Elves Higher-Tier Major Settlements

This mod does the following:

1. All provincial capitals (excluding norsa regions) has its outpost level increased to tier 3, supporting 3 buildings (from 1), better wood elves garrison (5-6-8 units and better quality), and local gdp increase (50-60-80).

2. All special capitals of major factions (Altdorf, Couronne, Eight Peak, Miragliano, etc.) goes up to tier 4, supporting 4 buildings, elite wood elves garrison (10-10-10-12 units and elite quality), and local gdp increase (50-60-80-100). Level 4 requires amber to upgrade.

3. Further added one elite bow unit to lv 1 pathway to slightly ease lack of garrison.


Other than above, higher tier major settlements do not offer any other advantage than tier-1 major settlements (i.e., public order, amber, chaos reduction bonues unchanged); minor settlements are also untouched. Works for all elven factions in main campaign.

Have fun.


Tip1: research the global growth+50 technology first, in order to build higer-tier settlements.
Tip2: always build economy buildings in outposts (resource building then foraging groves with factionwide income+2%) whenever possible. That will accumulate much more income as expansion goes. Garrison is less useful & it is ok to lose outposts in short term.
Tip3: special capitals offer +10% factionwide income, occupying one or two matters a lot in mid-game!!


For better visuals of wood elves settlements, I strongly recommend using this mod together with the Settlement Texture Overhaul by kelstr (who also helped on visual & compatibility of this mod):

It will look beautiful and distinct!


Other suggested Mods:

1. Stronger Eleven archers by Ulrik H.D, which makes wood elves much enjoyable when playing them & easy to fend off enemies when combined with this mod.

Alternatively, CA's recent beta patch makes archers stronger too, which should roll out officially soon.



Compatibility: Should be compatible with all other units/texture/building mods that do not touch on elven main settlement. Also save game compatible with existing campaign, and most recent Bretonnia DLC.
