let me check

@UnderCloud it isn't very difficult to make. However, most of my modding free time is being dedicated to my AI mod

I wonder if something like Friendly Neighborhood Ratmen/Goblins but with other monsters would be hard to make? We really loved these mods, but unfortunately that guy who made them just vanished. Your mod is cool, but less balanced (op ratman king) than just having a lairs that sometimes spawn certain types of monsters.

@Dracoceros I actually took the idea from this mod Your Friendly Neighborhood.. Ratmen? but I actually wanted to have the ratmen level up to make them more useful. The original idea was to expand this for all different types of kingdoms with the suggestions from the comments but I never got around to them

@tolaburke, the only way I believe to increase attack speed is to also increase movement speed

You took a chapter from my book, I take it? (Ardania's Heroes)

Well, the Shaman are buffing themselves, at least?

Ratmen are OK as units, Champions are OK as units, Ratapults really suck as ranged(It's their shot speed more than anything), Shaman are great if few in number, Kings are as godly as you'd expect. You're kinda forced towards Elves because you don't really have a ranged unit otherwise. Gnomes also work, of course, for all the setup.

Infectious cloud is supposed to apply plague, but doesn't seem to really work. I think it might have something to do in the engine not allowing plague to spread to monsters. I've changed damage shield over from the spell to the item cast from the legendary questline.

Fixed the reanimation issue that was occurring. The fix isn't compatible with past saves.

Ratman Champions can buy power shock/flame shield. However their chance of success was extremely low. I've increased their chance of success to be much higher (same as monks). However, it is still on their low priority list to complete.

I'll look into plague and damage shield further to see if I can find anything special that needs to be done to get it working

Alright. The instability seems to relate to the Embassy. There's weirdness with the heroes and embassy with the mod anyway. Reanimated heroes for some reason get assigned to the Outpost and Embassy rather than actual guilds, and go into sulking/leaving mode if space isn't available, even if the guilds have spaces.

Also seems a little unstable, for some reason.

Shamans aren't casting Damage Shield. Plague status does not affect enemies, but can affect your own forces. Wish Ratman Champions would buy Power Shock/Flame Shield, given their high base INT, but that's a base game issue. Same with Rhoden, though that makes more sense given he's a Solarus swap. Ratapults going off-map(because they're still technically Rangers) is...interesting. Fun enough.

Had fun. :)
