    Re: Extended Tech Tree Submod v1.5

    Not in the foreseeable future, since there's way too much IRL business for me right now to get into modding beyond ironing out the kinks of the base mods or fixing bugs with the submod. I'm not so...

    Compared to every country in Europe and the Americas, it is. That's not to say that it were the only factor, though. One would also have to look at urban vs rural population distribution, birth...

    Re: Suggestion: Elven Fixes and Rebalances

    Yeah, the Elven campaign is definitely the weirdest one, for good or bad. That being said though, the official FATW team is tiny and they're all busy working on Wainriders, so patch 3.5 won't come...

    Interesting points; if I find the time to release version 1.6 at some point (not before September, as far as I can see), I'll take these into consideration.

  14. Re: If American foreign policy is destructive, why hasn't the world stopped it?
