1) Prevent bots from building more than 2 rams.
The reasons:
1.1) If there are more battering rams than gates on the map, then the bot leads an extra battering ram and its crew under meaningless shelling until the rest of the battering rams break the gates.
1.2) Why do I propose to make the limit not 3 rams for the bot, but 2? Indeed, the game has a siege map with three gates. But in the game itself, these three-gate maps will make up 15% of all siege maps. Moreover, in the game, 100% of the factions have monsters or cavalry. So on a map with three gates, the third gate will always be broken by monsters or cavalry.
2) Increase the amount of HP at the siege towers.
Reason:
2.1) T-1 defense towers (with the player's grammar control) are capable of destroying up to THREE siege towers. In most maps it is possible to destroy two, but in some maps it is possible to destroy three.
3) I propose to slightly increase the firing range of the defense towers. from 185-275-400-475 to 200-300-400-500.
The reasons:
3.1) T-1 defense towers (185m) are not capable of fighting ... long-range ARCHERS. Let me remind you that 99% of long-range archer units have a range limit of 200m, which they easily reach in the middle of the game.
3.2) Upgrading to T-2 towers are useless even for the cheapest and not long-range artillery under player control. I understand that artillery must fire at fortresses from a safe distance. But in the current situation, the T-2 defense tower in the context of the increased firing range against artillery ... USELESS (Except for the bastiladon with a crossbow on its back with an initial range of 240m).
3.3) Empire, Dwarfs, Chaos, Vampires-pirates can easily shoot more than 475m - that is, they can easily fire at T-4 from a safe distance. By increasing the firing range of the T-4 defense towers to from 475m to 500m, you will make available the safe shelling of the T-4 defense only for unique weapons (for example, the Queen Bess or the Hellstorm Rocket Battery, for which the firing range can be increased to 600)
3.4) The reason why the range of fire of the defense towers should be exactly 200-300-400-500m.
Most ranged spells of abilities, unique ranged lords have range, unique units, range and maximum range are limited to 200-300-400-500. Example: Alit Anar's range - maximum firing range 300m, fireball -300 m, maximum firing range of a servant - 200m, steam tank - maximum firing range - 400. AND MANY other units, abilities, spells, etc. That is, if you make the range of defensive towers 200-300-400-500, then the effectiveness of defensive structures will increase against all long-range abilities, units, and spells. And it will be much more difficult and more interesting for the player to take the capitals of the factions, because they have tower levels built into the main building. Otherwise, in the current situation, it is very easy to capture the capital cities with T-1, T-2, T-3 defensive towers. (And for the Empire, Dwarves, Chaos and vampire pirates, it is easy to take even capitals with T-4 defensive towers)
P.S.
Anyway - thanks for the mod!
