@Eomolch I know you said you're working on the tiefling hero professions, but you also said you're super busy. I made their professions for my personal use; do you want to collaborate?

the new races for Syrons and Nomads don't seem to have the Profession options for their leaders =(

Any thoughts to get a mod out to be compatible with the Shadow Realm Expansion, or even the Wasteland/Nomad mod that goes with the shadow realm?

Hi Icezera! Cool to hear that you could already check out the Tiefling heritage update! The Tiefling professions are basically next on my list, but I can't make any concrete promises when I can start or even finish the mod. My time for modding is currently very scarce, so it may take a while. But it will be here eventually ;-)

Loved the new tiefling update for racial heritage. Hope this one also gets updated soon! I've been holding off on recruiting Tiefling heroes until this comes out. I love every one of your mods and I can't wait to see what you have in plan for this as well!

Hi tjimagineer, I added a screenshot of the learnable abilities per profession to the mod gallery. And yes, eventually I'd like to extend it for the Tieflings too, but first I have to tackle the racial heritage of Tieflings as that is where most of the skills for the professions will come from.

A list of abilities and a teifling version would be awesome

Hi Lord Hand! Thanks for the nice words and also thanks for reaching out with the bug. I took a look and you were right. There was actually an accidentally copied resource which caused the archon male necromancer leaders to not get the profession. That issue should be fixed now, if you update the mod.
Lord Hand 5 May, 2021 @ 10:43am 
Oo actually I'm not sure this is working correctly for Necromancer leaders. My necro/Archon hero has both the hero development classes and the Archon professions but my leader of the same combo only has the classes, not the professions.

These are my favorite mods for AoW3! I'm glad to see they're still getting love and I look forward to seeing what comes of Tieflings!

Hi Star-X! Adding racial heritage and hero professions for the Shadow Elf race is a nice idea, but would also take me quite some time to get done. I am currently concentrating my modding efforts on the new race that I added to my Archon mod, the Tieflings. So the racial heritage and hero professions for those will have priority.

Any chance of making a compatibility patch for the unofficial Shadow Realms expansion? The race added by that mod (forget what it's called, tbh) still lacks support for your mods, I believe, which is the only thing keeping me from using your mods with them.

Hi Skaz88! I took a look and it would be less a compatibility patch and more an actual expansion of TheMentat's mod. I don't really have the motivation/time right now to work myself into someone else's mod. Instead I am working on a bigger update for the ArchonRace mod. So stay tuned for that, but for an expansion of the Empire Building mod it is still best to ask TheMentat.
skaz88 16 Mar, 2021 @ 1:32pm 
It would be easier if I could show you a screenshot.
skaz88 15 Mar, 2021 @ 8:52pm 
They don't have their own race bonuses. EBM gives each race three tiers of bonuses that increase certain stats and give abillitys. I'm probably not explaining this very well.......
Eomolch  [author] 15 Mar, 2021 @ 2:36pm 
Hi skaz88! I don't really know how the hero upgrade system of the empire building mod works, so it would be much better to ask TheMentat about this.

Would it just be enabling existing content from that mod? Or in which sense exactly are archon heroes not compatible with it?
skaz88 14 Mar, 2021 @ 8:25pm 
Could you make a patch for the Archons for the Empire Building Mod so they can enjoy the hero bonuses in that mod please?
Eomolch  [author] 9 Mar, 2021 @ 11:18am 
Hi ElJoe - thanks for the wb! :) I wrote you a pm about the topic, let's discuss it from there.
ElJoe 7 Mar, 2021 @ 4:17am 
Great to see you're back! The Archons certainly deserved it (and maybe even an own shooting tower? A divine intervention? ;)) We'll see if we can co-operate it in our mod. Didn't expect any changes anymore, please be careful ;)
Eomolch  [author] 3 Mar, 2021 @ 12:24pm 
Hi hiliadan! Cool to see you're still around in the AoW3 community! I'm writing you a pm so we can exchange some info. I'm definitely open to look at any points of feedback, especially if they are mostly stat or cost change suggestions (which are easy to do). I don't have as much time for modding as back in the days, but will be great to look at a general bug fix / update pass on the mods that require it - it may just take some longer.
hiliadan 2 Mar, 2021 @ 3:07pm 
Very nice! Welcome back!! I'm adding this to the list of compatibility patch in the list of the Best Mods for AoW3! :) https://www.the-battlefield.com/aow3/index.php?page=commnews&eingabenewsid=93
I would be quite interested by an update of the PDF manual for the Hero Profession / Hero Development mods. And if you stay motivated, I could maybe find back my old balance suggestions! Your mods are really great, but I stopped playing them due to some significant unbalances in PBEM.

Nvm, found it I think
Dreamwell 2 Mar, 2021 @ 2:11am 
PS: I want all tiers to receive the same amount of HP and damage per xp level.
Dreamwell 2 Mar, 2021 @ 2:10am 
Mate, can you help me out? I'm trying to fiddle with tier bonus HP and upkeep. Want to make the same bonuses for all tiers and at the same time also slightly increase the upkeep of higher tiers to further make lower tiers viable. But what's the resource with unit tier details?
Eomolch  [author] 1 Mar, 2021 @ 11:38pm 
Thanks Gladen! Looking at the bugs reported for the Archon mod, is indeed high on my list - funnily enough the Golem thing was the one issue I still remembered, so will definitely take care of that when I have the time. ;)
Gladen 1 Mar, 2021 @ 11:54am 
Cool, welcome back. While you're in the modding business again :) Perhaps check the main mod of the Archons in the DemiGiant.rpk as the Golem seems missing a link to the race itself.
