Just did a playthrough where they didn't use any T4 to be fair I only had a handful myself. It was pretty cool.

Thanks for your answers

I'd definitely recommend the 3rd link if you want to stop the T4 spam, works perfectly, they're still using some t4's, slowly increasing more and more as the game progresses to the very end game

I've answered question like that in comments below so i'll just copy/past it as there is no new information as i used it only in games vs other players.
"To be honest, i don't know) I've made this mod for PvP, so i didn't try it vs AI. I think that you are searching smth like this:

Does the ai understand that units require much more upkeep and change army set up to include more low tier units or does it just have 3 unit stacks of higher tier units or goes broke trying to field armies it can't support?

Oh wow did not expect a patch especially in.. HOURS! Thank you so much! Can't wait to try out that one, so much appreciated!

This mod should solve your problem)

This mod changes all summon spells and settings in Title.rpk (tier x tier resource). So yes, my mod will overwrite mods that change what units get with new medal or how much experience they will get. Only tier 2 units will be unchanged. Thanks for telling me about it.

Apparently that was the problem, too bad! I wish I could've used these two together

Hi there, so what file does this mod change? Been trying to troubleshoot some inconsistencies (probably due to a mod conflict) with "Better Unit Ranks" but I'm not sure what it is

более высокая стоимость содержания т3 и т4 вынуждает использовать юниты т1 и т2, что очень разнообразит игру. и это, на мой взгляд, классно!) Аи император конечно будет создавать т4 юниты почти как и раньше, засчет более сильной экономики, но этот мод лучше для пвп использовать

@BladeofSharpness
Seems like it won't change AI behavior, it cheats so bigger upkeep won't burden it. I'm like... 85% sure)

Does it changes how AI build its armies, this upkeep change?

@M14
AoW3 is a strange game, I've had crashes with and without mods in different situations. I can recommend you to clean your PC using smth like CCleaner and to lower graphics settings, usually it helps a lot. Have a good game)

dont know what happened, tried to recreate it, but now its working without correctly

@M14
Any particular cases? In what situations, what mods do you use? I can't solve the problem if i don't know all information. As i see it there shouldn't be any problems but this mod is new and there could be unforeseen kinks.

i think it crashes the game

@tannoy22
Main idea of changing upkeep to make long games more varied. After 80-90 turn it's just spamming T4, so i decided that they need to be champions, not chaff: you need to choose between 3 stacks of T3 or 1 stack of T4. Or even 12 stacks of T2) I want quantity and economy to play bigger role. I've often seen how people just rush t4, make stack and trample everything.
All in all, everyone will be in equal position so i don't see the problem in wanting to make fewer high level units.

t4 is overpriced

Отличный мод! Добавляет разнообразия в игру, путем большего числа Т1 и Т2 в армии.
