Description
About:
Increases Armageddon limit values by 100x.

Note: The Armageddon timer clock graphic may not display the correct number during gameplay, however as long as the "Armageddon text" is the right number, the mod will be working. The Armageddon clock shown in the mod thumbnail is an illustration only.

How to use:
1) Subscribe to the mod.
2) Ensure that the mod is loaded and enabled in the Rise of Nations mod manager (accessible via Tools & Extras -> Steam Workshop).
3) In a game lobby select "100x Armageddon" in the Game Mods dropdown menu (see image).

This mod is NOT compatible with any other mod that modifies rules.xml, even if they don't modify the Armageddon limits. This includes other mods made by me.

CBP users:
If you're using the Community Patch (CBP), use the bundled Rules.xml Editor plugin instead.

Mod changes:
  • Default Armageddon limit increased from 4 to 400.
  • Additional Armageddon limit per nation increased from 1 to 100.
  • Additional Armageddon limit per team increased from 2 to 200.

FAQ:
How is this mod different from <other Armageddon mod>?
  • This mod documents exactly what has been changed and by how much.
  • This mod has a cool thumbnail which I spent slightly too much time making.
  • This mod makes no other balance changes / regressions (some other Armageddon mods are using a previous balance patch e.g. Americans are absurdly strong - this mod uses the latest official balance patch from 2004/2005 (the same as what EE uses) - though note that EE's balance itself is still bugged to hell and back due to catastrophic bugs that break intended damage values).
  • This mod is partly a learning experience for me! So even if partly a duplicate effort I can still use it to learn.

Does this mod work in multiplayer?
    Dropdown mods are not very stable in EE v1.20 (the current version). It might be okay for games with 2 human players, but for larger multiplayer games you should expect out of sync issues. I've heard that EE v1.10 might be more stable for dropdown mods.

Does the AI use the extra Armageddon limit?
    I'm not 100% sure as I haven't tested this, but if I had to guess: it will try to.

Thanks for clarifications, we have never tried mods on RoN since the Steam version. I will have to check that and see what's work.

@Joheskiller |CSCλᴅᴇᴠ| Dropdown mods (ones selected from the dropdown menu in the lobby) can only be enabled by the host, so the question doesn't really make sense. Being someone that hasn't recently used dropdown mods in multiplayer I can't speak from personal experience, but as far as I've been made aware by other players the June 2024 patch broke dropdown mods in multiplayer lobbies and all dropdown mods no longer work. I've yet to fully verify that information but I've seen a lot of complaints about it.

You would have to try using a different mod format to replicate the changes in this mod in order to apply the effects in multiplayer on the current EE patch. Alternatively you can try reverting to version 1.10 and playing there with dropdown mods (like this mod), but I don't know if the multiplayer servers still connect for that version.

Is this is multiplayer compatible if every player also have it enabled?

Oh this is just what I was looking for

@AdorableAurora if you have plugins enabled in CBP Launcher (can be toggled in the settings tab), it's one of the plugins distributed along with CBP. If you're not familiar with CBP, the link is in the text that mentions the Rules.xml Editor plugin - changes like this one are not a core part of the patch, but because they're nontheless highly used changes (and dropdown mods aren't strictly compatible with CBP), I made a plugin to allow people to replicate the functionality without needing to edit the files themselves.
