Twisting roots is making heroes on flying dragons get reduced move as if walking not flying. Not sure if it's thie mounts in this mod causing that? Noticed it on hero with Young Gold Dragon mount. Not complaining btw,. It's a great mod! Thank you!

Would it be possible to add an Evolve tag to the Wyverns and Young Dragons? If the wyverns dont turn into dragons, at least a giant version of them? Im invoking eggs and most I get are Wyverns -_-

These need to be more rare every mount I get is just a giant version of the normal mounts no progression. Thanks.

Wow. These are well-made mount items. :steamhappy:
MaestroMe Nov 20, 2020 @ 5:38pm 
Thanks Musashi! I Realized today :D
Musashi  [author] Nov 17, 2020 @ 11:40pm 
That was added by a different mod: "Epic Summons"
MaestroMe Nov 17, 2020 @ 8:58am 
You did add the summon spells, didn't you? Unfortunately it cramps up my spell book :O
Otherwise a great mod

At the moment that's beyond my skills, I don't know how to edit units:(
Fonzosh Sep 8, 2020 @ 11:32am 
Please, also add the "missing" mounts like unicorn and nightmare.
Musashi  [author] Sep 8, 2020 @ 1:42am 
You a free to publish your mod, no objections from my side :)
skaz88 Sep 7, 2020 @ 8:40pm 
I'm making them tier five summons costing 120 mana/casting points.
skaz88 Sep 7, 2020 @ 8:39pm 
I managed to make it so this is the only mod the summons mod I'm making depends on, so once I've finished it and confirmed it works, I might publish it.
skaz88 Sep 7, 2020 @ 1:51pm 
I know how to make a summon spell for the epic mounts! You take a regular summon mount spell and change the item and references to the giant mount. I can't publish the one I'm making because it relies on someone else's mod but someone else could.
skaz88 Apr 14, 2020 @ 2:51pm 
I hope someone does pick this up, I don't know how to make unit models and would like to see a giant Nightmare and Unicorn.

There won’t be any updates anyway. I moved on from AOW3 modding a long time ago. If anyone want to take over the mod to expand its features you have my permission and blessing.
Fonzosh Apr 13, 2020 @ 5:20am 
Even the highest tier of summon would make this to powerful. Have you seen the mythical mounts (especially the dragon)? They are twice as powerful than any mythical item you can find. If this mod is expanded with the "missing" mounts, I think the maximum summon could be an egg with 20 turns hatching time.
skaz88 Apr 12, 2020 @ 5:58pm 
Just make it a high tier summoning spell then. Is it possible to summon items that don't have a 'summon' next to them?
Fonzosh Apr 12, 2020 @ 11:10am 
Summon for this would be to powerful. These mounts are extremely powerful and makes most heroes into wrekking machines. What I would like to see though is expanding it to all mounts like unicorns, nightmares aso
skaz88 Apr 12, 2020 @ 10:32am 
How would one go about creating a summon spell for these mounts?
AXC629 Jul 20, 2019 @ 7:46pm 
would like a summon mount spell please.
Icezera Mar 14, 2018 @ 6:40pm 
Would love a summon spell for the mounts
Fonzosh Jan 29, 2018 @ 7:29am 
I would really like to see someone expanding this, as several mounts are still missing (think about riding an epic Nightmare) and it is a very good mod. Even the AI uses it so there is no balancing issues.
Друманин Дрин Jan 29, 2018 @ 5:48am 
Are there any unic models of mounts? Or just regular but a bit changed?
Shade May 16, 2017 @ 8:07pm 
If the modder (or someone willing to take his torch) ever sees this - love this mod massively. I would -love- to see real dragons (or for hilarity, giants/troll) as special mounts. Would be hilarious to see a goblin riding on the back of a troll that can hurl boulders, etc.
Fonzosh Feb 17, 2017 @ 5:45am 
I believe the creator has stopped updating this mod, so if anyone else could make some adjustements to it and add the "missing" giant mounts would be great. I would love to see my necromancer flying around on a giant flying Nightmare or my elven Theocrat riding a giant levitating unicorn.

up vote for summon spell for mounts
Ratters Nov 30, 2016 @ 9:51am 
Hi Musashi, great mod, i am trying to make my own mods, which libraries do you select and edit? Thanks
Fonzosh Nov 14, 2016 @ 9:19am 
@palorius No, they dont in this version of the mod. Ive been playing with it for quite some time and getting them with "Invoke mount" is to powerful (these mounts are extremely powerful. Would be great though if the mod could be updated for unicorn and the "missing" elder versions.
Palorius Nov 13, 2016 @ 7:14pm 
Do these mounts hatch from an egg and can you get them from the 'invoke mount' spell?
GhengisFarb Oct 20, 2016 @ 8:11am 
I would really like to throw in my support for some summon mounts spells, I'd love to see a specific one for each Class like a Summon Manticore (set up like the Sorcerer's current spell with the possibility of getting either a Manticore or Giant Maticore) for the Warlord, perhaps Young Obsidian Dragon for the Rogue, Bone Dragon for the Necromancer, etc and then added to each classes spell list. That way each class has a theme specific mount they can research and attain.
Dunadd Sep 10, 2016 @ 1:40pm 
Sounds nice. How about a Silver Unicorn? A giant griffin? And a Cerberus? Griffin and Hippogriff too would be nice.
Zyhm Jul 30, 2016 @ 2:56pm 
There a direct download for this mod?
Musashi  [author] Jun 18, 2016 @ 9:03am 
I had this toggled but it seems it got lost in an update. Sorry will fix it.
Artemis *Seven* Jun 18, 2016 @ 8:39am 
You should mention up-front that people need both DLC's to run this mod. With other mods there is a purple Steam App bar that says that the mod in question requires DLCs that I don't have and the mods are listed on the right. You should do that as well.
WolfWhiteFire Jun 3, 2016 @ 11:10am 
This may be a bug from other mods, but I think it is from this one. With my necromancer leader, I decided to try and see if the giant hunter spider mount was better than his current mount, the Young Gold Dragon, when I switched them, he was instantly sent to the void. Which is why I think the bug is from this mod since they were both from this mod.
Musashi  [author] May 3, 2016 @ 4:08pm 
Sorry for the silence. I am currently working on XCOM2 mods. So unfotunatly no progress here at the moment.
Fonzosh Mar 9, 2016 @ 5:28am 
Thanks for the feedback.
Why I think the size is slightly off is because when you equip your hero with a lance the lance looks enormous, since it is enlarged together with the rest of the mount/hero.
What I would suggest to the three new mounts are the following:
1 Elder Nightmare: Should be flying sine in all fantasy all nightmares are flying. Should have inflict fear and some sort of burning dmg. Flesh out as you wish.
2. Elder unicorn sire: Floating, heal, Strong Will? Flesh out as you will.
3. Elder Fell Horse. Fire Damage, Immolation? Haste? Flesh out as you will.
Just some suggestions.
Musashi  [author] Mar 5, 2016 @ 8:54pm 
Hi Fonzosh, glad you like the mod.I am currently on vacation so i cant do anything the next two weeks. The juvenile thing does not work unfornatly, but i can make a high level avatar spell, that summons a random epic mount.
I will take a look at unicorn, fell horse and nightmare and see what i can do.Also i look into the balance suggestions you made when i am back home.
Fonzosh Mar 5, 2016 @ 4:52am 
Ok, love your mod and cant play without it. Thinks a summon mount spell (maybe, as you suggested, a juvenile mount that matures in time) would be great as an avatar spell. Now, some other suggestions:
1. Unicorn sire, Fell Horse and Nightmare arent listed. Would be great to maybe not increase the size (at least not as much as the others) but make them into "Elder" variants. Maybe also make the "Normal" animals in a slightly smaller scale and call them Elders or something.
2. With the +10 hp to the Giant Dire Bear this one is a killer. I think all the mounts should give +5 hp, to reflect that the unit is actually harder to kill.
3. The Frost Dragon gives a crazy +10 frost to all attacks. Is this ment to be? I right now have a sorc riding one of those beast and he cleans armies by himself with that breath weapon.
Saint Crohan Jan 15, 2016 @ 10:56am 
Ok, thanks a million man. I only have GR atm so it will have to wait. The moment I get EL though, i'll be trying your mod. : )

You know you mentioned a Summon Mount spell, that sounds like a sweet idea. I would love to see something like the Sorcerer's spell but with all mounts instead. All the mounts that are not hatched from an egg should have a junvenile creature version instead. Like the Unicorn for example would have a "Unicorn Foal. Mutures in 10 Turns" kinda thing. Or even better, do away with the hatching/muturing time altogether.
Musashi  [author] Jan 14, 2016 @ 11:29pm 
Hey tytan-crow, you'll need the Golden Realms and Eternal Lords Expansions, since i modded the mounts from that DLCs too.
Saint Crohan Jan 14, 2016 @ 1:29pm 
Hey Musashi.
This mod looks well cool, absolutly had to try it. Thing is, this is the first mod I have tryed (only had the game since Christmas) and when I try play with it on, I get a "Mod Conflict" error. Apparently I'm "Missing packages DLC3". I don't suppose you know if it's a problem at me end, like do I need both the expansions or something like that?

Thanks a million man. Can't wait to play your mod.
Musashi  [author] Jan 3, 2016 @ 4:33am 
Update: Missing sounds should be fixed now.
Centurin Dec 22, 2015 @ 9:54am 
Is there a reason that none of the mounts have any sound? Their attacks and movements are silent.
Musashi  [author] Nov 26, 2015 @ 8:29am 
Thx buzzshiza! Yeah grown dragons would rock. Unfortunately it's not possibly currently, since no dragon rider rig exists :/
buzzshiza Nov 24, 2015 @ 9:06pm 
Fabulous mod! I actually think this epic size of the mount looks more appropriate to the size of the hero now. The only way to make this even better is to have the grown dragons. All the current ones are perfect though. Thanks for adding these!
str86lol Nov 10, 2015 @ 2:35pm 
ah ok, was just thinking since i have seen modfs that alter summon mount to archon
Musashi  [author] Nov 10, 2015 @ 9:03am 
Probably yes but it would only be accessible to the sorcerer class then and very unbalanced.
str86lol Nov 10, 2015 @ 5:10am 
i saw that you wanted to add a summon spell, can it not be worked into the already existing "summon extraordinary mount" spell?
