Hello, my friends and fellow modders!!
I have come out of retirement, to bring you something very special! Leveraging my past knowledge and experience with developing campaign and battle AI from scratch. I was able to make numerous breakthroughs with this newer game engine. My goal was simple, make an AI that will actually win and make you mad at it for doing so!!
XAI's other goal is to be a core improvement mod, designed in a modular fashion so that you can play or mod the game exactly the way you want to. Being modular in design will also maximize compatibility with other mods. XAI fixes bugs and other systems. Simply put, fixing the whole Attila game has not been easy and there is still more work to be done. Vanilla now run's like a champ and it will be a great foundation, any major mods that choose to use XAI, for some really fantastic mods in the future.
All in all, I have spent well over 700 hours working on XAI: Attila and I know when you play you will appreciate the efforts.
All I want you to do is download all of the modules and go enjoy the game the way it should have been designed long ago.
Then make sure to give constructive feedback and keep these forums positive because I will not allow any flaming of individuals or rude behavior.
I do want to thank all of the modders of this community for all their hard work!

You can add in any units and skins and many other mods, but you need to be mindful of the other XAI modules. My modules have sometimes used the best mods as references and will give you a fantastic and updated experience.
Disclaimer; We cannot change everything in the AI, the best we can hope for is to achieve balance to allow the AI to make better decisions.
I am looking for some help with producing a video, and also some graphics for Steam
