Description
Overview:
A simple mod that increases the Hit Points of all units and heroes!
Lower tiered units should be less fragile, combat will be slower, and battle attrition and healing will have more of an impact!
Is it balanced? Well, that's up to you to decide! ;3

If you want more of a slugfest in battles, combine this with with my other mod, which adds +1 Retaliation Attacks while in Defense Mode!
+1 Retaliation Attacks (Defense Mode)

If you want your stacks to feel more like an army, combine this with RFD, which adds more figures per unit!
Rescale & Formations & Diversity


Changes:
  • Hit Points increased by 25 for Scout units.
  • Hit Points for non-Scout units increased by 25, 30, or 35 depending on if they have Low, Average or High base Hit Points stat bonuses in the rpks.
  • Hit Points increased by 30 for all Heroes.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated! Let me know what you think!


Mod Compatibility:
This mod is compatible with the following notable mods:

Any mods that do not change the same resources in the game files should be compatible!

However, for mods that new units, they must use same bonus stats from Upgrades_Core_UnitProperties.rpk, for them to get the extra Hit Points from this mod!

Requests for compatibility checks can be done on the appropriate discussion forum!


This mod and my other mods can also be found on Paradox Mods![mods.paradoxplaza.com]

In the Golem update patch notes, there was this: "The AI will now also make use of the boost Free City negotiations option on Hard and Hardest difficulty". So it's likely that the AI actually does use Imperium to speed up negotiations and vassalage on harder difficulties now!

Sounds good though. Making it take a bit longer would give other players more time to catch up on the race, even though I don't know if the AI even uses influence to speed up vassalization^^

After searching around a bit, it seems possible to increase the thresholds at which free cities reach the different states of negotiation and vassalage! While this isn't exactly the slowing down of Allegiance gain from Whispering Stones, it should still result in slower vassal acquisition overall.

I unfortunately haven't had much of a chance to experiment with vassals this update yet, so I can't really say whether the current speed of vassal acquisition is balanced or not.
Holy Fool Sehrael Nov 14, 2023 @ 1:30pm 
While we're at it, would it be possible to slow down free city... obedience? gain by let's say 25-40%? I think that'd make it more difficult to just rush vassal production and incentivizes the use of influence for that kind of stuff more :D If you get the idea ^^ What do you think?
Holy Fool Sehrael Nov 14, 2023 @ 1:23pm 
Aye, great ^^ I think as a sideeffect this will also make certain low-life units more viable ^^

I can confirm that this mod works with the Empires & Ashes DLC / Golem update! Thanks for checking out my resistances mod, I hope you enjoy playing with the two together :tgrin:

(Also it's a bit weird that the gallery images here disappeared for some reason, I'll add them back! Wouldn't have noticed if you didn't comment, so I appreciate it :P )

Does this need an update? ^^ I'd like to try your resistances mod, but without this one I'm afraid of a lot of oneshots happening :P

Great! Thanks!

No problem at all! Just tested and can confirm that Life / Preserver Culture and Outlaw Culture mods are both compatible!
