If you wanted to build a horde civilization, that zergs its enemies through sheer numbers, it would have been best to give them a significant bonus to military production, not just unit maintenance, that applies to all eras. As it is, The Darkspawn civ has a chance to gain an advantage only in the early eras, if it can overrun a neighbor in the classical era, with its cheaper swordsmen and comp bowmen equivalents.

Hey there, I haven't played Civ5 in a while, and started to play it again, and I thought making a Blight Scenario would be cool, but for some reason after making my scenario for it, it would not load, it stopped at the loading screen and said not responding several times. What do you think could be causing this, also do you know how to fix this.

Dragon Age навсегда

Perhaps it is just my particular setup of mods, but was it intended for Hurlocks and Genlocks to be unupgradeable? It makes it difficult to continue fighting when your veteran units are outmatched by musketeers without rebuilding your entire army as soon as you finally get to steel+.

Other than that, great job! I think the 25% reduced science might be a little too harsh, but only a little. I got stuck on an island with only one victim to play with until I could get to astronomy and cross the ocean. On the bright side, nobody saw Denmark quietly disappear off the face of the earth. Muahhahaha...
...Then I won through diplomacy anyway. High tech armies beat small long-distance hordes from another continent.

I have now released the Qunari civilization which can be found here http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=267726601&searchtext=

Thanks for all the support and feedback so far, I will try to have more out soon.

I have some civ's you could add the inquistion true not much is known so just have cassandra and look on dragon age wiki for the inquision and get all needed info and first enchanter Irving for the circle of magi, lady of the forest for werewolves, the chantry and the antivan crows

Would be cool if you could make kirkwall civ, run by hawke, or maybe like the viscount.

soooo um i take it no more dragon age civs are coming out soon?

I haven't been able to get this to work with Gods & Kings expansion. Help?

Nice one, sadly not all units can be made as blight ones

is there one for vanilla

Just one question, how the heck do you converse with the Archdemaon? I mean it is hard to hear what he is saying trough all the fire.

Alright so I released the BNW version of this mod, and I think it should work fine, please mention if you notice a problem.

Actually, after looking it looks like somebody else has started to release some of them. I'll talk a look at them and if I feel I have better ideas I'll continue, it depends.

@Korkrag

Actually, in the original version of the mod that's what it was. I changed it because of how I wanted them to work. I wanted them to be a quantity over quality type of civ, which ogres didn't really work with.

In other news I might release the BNW version of this soon and make some of the other nations I said I would. I lost a bit of interest after I couldn't get a certain trait working, but I'm willing to try again. If I have some extra time I'll get on that soon.

No Ogres to replace siege weapons? Tisk tisk!

Needs a BNW version.

You should also make a Chantry/templars civ and a Gray warden order civ.

Dude great Job :) If you ever need more help on a race let me know I'm very skilled in graphic art, coding and other speciaties that isn't 100% legal like lock picking :)

LOL promoting mass effect civs 1st picture

What about Antiva with the antivan crows as special units

i noticed that you don't plan on making the Grey Wardens. Will or has that changed?
as a sugestion they should have increased sight and attack when darkspawn are near

U should also consider making The Chantry with templar and seeker units, the circle of magi with tranquil workers and mage ranged unit, and maybe demons of the fade and spirits of the fade.

No, unfortunately. I have no art skills whatsoever.

Seems nice, does it also have custom units skins?

@xaviergrim - I don't see this happening, I'm not a fan of mods that add more unique items than you see in the base game, it really runs into many balance issues, and I'd like to keep these rather equal to the other Civilizations in the game, as much as I can. Another problem is that there are no real suitable replacements for the later game units, even if they were just a swap of names.

While I know it is kind of strange to see Darkspawn building a circus or a Gatling gun, I think it's for the best as far as gameplay itself goes.

In other news, I'm working on the Qunari, but having some issues with the trait, as it's much more complex than what I did with this one, and I admittedly am learning as I go.

I'm sorry to those of your having problems, I'll see if the next release has similar issues, and will try find a solution based on that. Are a lot more of you guys affected by it, or is it only the few that said something about it?

Seeing how the Darkspawn are so alien to the rest of the races of Thedas, I would suggest them having a completely unique unit list. Hurlocks and Genlocks are fine, but there are also the Ghouls, Ogres, Shrieks, etc... The Shrieks would be akin to the Scout, fast moving and best used in groups. Ogres are giant seige creatures, smashing through a cities defences. And Ghouls could be converted enemy units that have fallen to the Blight. And instead of Garrisons a Broodmother would be acceptable, seeing how they're non combat darkspawn centred around unit productivity.
I just see a lot of potential here and I want to see it done to perfection.

You could try to throw in the Chantry and the Circle as well, Perhaps with Templars being units for both sides, seeing as the story of the game is focusing on a full scale civil war between the factions.

it wont let me use the mod

Love your mod its awesome! hope you make more like this (p.s MAKE DWARVES!!!!!)

How can I use this mod, I have this downloaded along with other civ adding mods and none of them show up

try to make elves

Dragons would be pretty sweet.

i have the mod downloaded but it wont let me use it. It doesnt show up

This is awesome!

if possible do the grey wardens, it would be cool if you could get units from your party, like shale

Nice i personally love dragon age one of my favorite games so PLEASE make all the ones you are going to make

Maybe you could do a Circle civ?

I think it is really cool that you are making civ's based on Bioware's franchise, but you might want to make these guys a bit more powerful. It seems like they will be a weaker version of Germany. Maybe you could give them a bonus in production towards military units?

that is cool :0

Also to everybody, I've been busy finishing up my school year for the last few days, so haven't had much time to work on this. The Qunari are in progress, and could be done in the next few days, but I can't say for sure.

@W_A_M_O

Yeah, I was thinking of something like that, but the problem is that I don't really want to do just factions of people, as they're not actually Civilizations. I was thinking of mixing them into the actual countries though, like Tevinter may have a form of mage, as well as Nevarra if I do it.

@ Wombraider

No mods work in multiplayer :(

First of all, I LOVE the idea of Dragon Age civs and second of all, I'd like to see a chantry/circle civ with the templar knights as a replacement for longswordsmen and mages instead of archers,

My only issue with this is that I just tried to play it and the whole computer crashed. Since I don't see anyone else having similar issues (and I do happen to have all the current expansions), will try again.

Is is possible to use mods like this with multiplayer?

oh wait. i didnt realise you haveto press next on the mod section and then play single layer from there. sorry. it works fine

Awesome mod!!!! absolutley my play style and is exactly the kind of civ i have been looking for. I usaually go for the Iroqous? (I think thats how you spell it, the native americans) or the Romans because of their fast movments but this is way better being able to build so many units that mobility isnt a problem because all my untis are spread out every where

having problems installing it :S

Once you've subscribed you just open the game and go to the mods menu, from there it should install. You can then activate it from the list.
