This mod now is compatible whit CW9?
Iakovosian  [author] 23 Feb @ 7:50pm 
Working on proper/full compatibility with CW9. While this mod is not incompatible with CW9, there's still a few gaps and places where new buildings and units from both mods could work better together. Taking a short break from other modding ideas to implement that compatibility better and more completely, hopefully covering all edge cases this time.

@Canute, I've had a think about our brief discussion and my earlier thoughts it invoked. The curved formations now have much clearer descriptions, and more deliberate minor buffs to reinforce their different uses.

Unfortunately, since unit's troops tend to run to the enemy centre once engaged, formation shapes don't last through the fight (and so are mostly cosmetic), however they do help with initial setup if you're managing your units at the zoomed-in level.
Iakovosian  [author] 6 Jan @ 10:35am 
Aha - I was going to ask a few questions about that error! :-)
If Mos is loaded, the granary2,3 should require the 'Economy Warehousing' attribute, else an attribute from this mod is used instead. Sounds like it detected that Mos existed, but couldn't find the attribute - as you say, your folder not being read properly.

Oops, my bad. My local Mos folder was still named with the steamid so it wasn't being read properly. ^^
TBoneSteakly 6 Jan @ 10:13am 
The granary II and granary III descriptions both list "unknown attribute" after the normal attributes. I'm only running Mos and this.
Iakovosian  [author] 5 Jan @ 5:30pm 
Minor buffs added. Only seems fair, aside from hinting at intended usage, considering I already penalize their charge block due to fewer rows (less depth) in the stance. Thanks for bringing me off the fence on that!
Iakovosian  [author] 5 Jan @ 1:49pm 
It's good to have feedback from others, even if it's a different thought process, so thank you. And it's clear that what's clear to me may not be as clear to others.
I was wondering about this earlier, but I may add very small differentiating modifiers on them to help reinforce their intended use cases.

As an example, it's all too easy to end up 'accidentally' getting flanked in a narrow-ish mountain/forrest path on the map when two units face yours head-on, but these stances help alleviate that.
Or in the inverse case, when your multi-unit formation clashes with the enemy, these can help two of your units manage to actually achieve a partial wrap-around on one of theirs and break their formation.
It's situational, for sure.

So far, for me the shapes have been "cosmetic" to give context to the modifiers. I can see now they may be not entirely cosmetic. Thanks for sharing your thought process on that. I'll look out to use them in future when appropriate.
Iakovosian  [author] 4 Jan @ 4:03pm 
There's a slight difference between the spearmen/hoplite convex stances, in line with their units' standard stance modifiers, but the hoplite convex/concave stances do indeed have the same modifiers on paper for now - the difference is just their shape for tactical purposes.

These stances are wider than a standard battleline or phalanx, helping block choke points better, and the two different curves help resist flanking (convex) or bring more spears to bear on the enemy whilst keeping formation (concave). I appreciate that not everyone may micromanage their formations as much as I do, but they did seem to make a difference in specific cases. They have different curve radiuses as well to better fit their function. How have you found them?
