I certainly am late to the party by asking this question only now.. seeing that AOW 3 has recently been released.. but I have been an avid AOW player and a follower of AOW heaven for years. For some time now, I've played and developed a private mod, Thirsk's AOW, aimed at enhancing the tactical gameplay to the highest level.
Originally based off Warlock's Ruleset, I went about further rebalancing the unit stats, adding bonuses to unit veterancy, rebalancing and lowering costs of spells, rebalancing hero stats and abilities, lowering the potential of "super-heroes" and other tweaks all over the board.
This was only ever meant for private gameplay between myself and a close friend of mine but the next thing I knew, 5 years has went by and I've add 12 new units (available in all maps without need to map edit like other mods), 52 new heroes, over 260 new hero portraits, over 160 new unit portraits, and a heap of unit stat tweaks.
I'm not saying I'm hanging up my love for AOW..that would never, ever change. I still play AOW to this day and age as nothing really comes close to the thrill of triumphing against overwhelming odds (AI Emperor with many restrictive rules placed to make the game near impossible) but now after releasing my 11th update to the mod, I felt it may be time and of adequate quality that I share my labour of love for AOW with the rest of the world. So I'm wondering if it's possible to add this to the mods page and how many people are interested in trying it out?
