Floop/Chinese seem OP

Hey ho,

from my multiplayer experience, the chinese heroes and the flood god power are way op. As soon as chinese players have completed their wonder, they basically won.

Other tier 4 god powers like meteor or earthquake wont even come close.

The following needs to be balanced down a lot:

- Tiger cavalary
- Flood
- Heroes

Anyone else feels this way?

I'll admit Flood is op yeah, but... a player winning after making a wonder is the point. The wonder is a win condition. It takes a long time to make, alerts every enemy player the second you place it, and costs a lot of resources.

If the player manages to successfully build the wonder without it being destroyed, or without their base(s) being destroyed as a result of having no workers or soldiers outside of the wonder, they deserve to have won.

The heroes clearly need to be balanced, great flood, tiger cav I think is fine. I think that some other things need to be buffed like greek heroes and anubis

Chinese get carried by having a lot of very powerfull godpowers. However most of their unit roster is kinda mediocre. Also having peasant which cost and gather 20% less is a bit population inefficent, Kuafus costing 17 favour is also a difficult alternative. Favoured land has the problem that efficent layouts leads to less defensible bases as buildings are spread out and often out of tower range.

Their heroes are meant to be strong, but yes, tiger cav feels broken, and great flood is also broken. And, surprisingly, only Nuwa has a winrate above 50%. Fu-xi is only being held up by Gonggong and Chiyou (the latter is balanced), and Shennong is weak, but fairly solid.
