Hi NickoX,
Excellent game, the best for Rise Of Nations !
Some observations:
- Have you seen this work: Moddb.com
Imagine the battle of Kursk? The German Flak 88 could integrate this new category and this would allow to return the classic artillery.
- I think that for more realism, it would be interesting to limit the possibilities that we have of reconstituting an army. At present, as soon as one reaches a sufficient economic level, one is able to reconstitute our armies and the battles lost have very little consequence. I do not have a specific solution. But I think changing "build time" of units might be a good idea. And maybe limit the number of factory for manufacturing. Otherwise I do not know.
I used Google for translation, sorry ...
Thanks and good luck to your mod!
Hi rsnip,
I didn't check the Fierce War mod, but the fixed number of available units in RON is limiting the use of more kinds of units.
I agree, maybe I'll correct them in next release, thanks for the hint!
Is almost everything compatible with the extended edition of Rise Of Nations?
Hi Yeilluminator,
the mod version for STEAM is available at the Workshop:
Steamcommunity.com
Here you can download the CTW version for RON EE:
Moddb.com
The first is a normal mod, the CTW version will be installed over RON core files to let you use the editor and play CTW campaigns.
Greetings, very good mod but I would like to give some suggestions. You may change the animation or maneuver Ju 87 Stuka attack by a more realistic? if possible with the characteristic sound of their sirens or trumpets of Jericho, will share some pictures of the maneuver attack that could have the Ju 87 Stuka
K38.kn3.net
I also think that he could change the way they walk to the infantry, to run a little faster or have more aggressive riding
and if possible to be made a new camouflage for the Panzer Tiger

Thank you so much
Hi Starkile,
thanks for yours hints, we'll try to do what's possible in next release.
Hi Nicko,
This looks like a cool mod, just have two questions.
1. Were you able to get any of the Blizkrieg models from GSM to work? I saw it mentioned on the RON forums for your mod, but I heard nothing else.
2. Do you need help with researching information for the different factions such as weapons and vehicles?
Thanks and good luck to your mod!
Hi Droidekas,
1. No, we were not able to use Blitzkrieg models.
2. We are missing some weapons datas, but right now I don't remember which one, I need to check our database.
Thanks for offering your help!
We miss the following datas:
Fuel Capacity (fuel cost):
- japanese Model 92 Naval Armored Car
- english Vickers 6-Ton MK E
- japanese Type 4 Chi-To
Rounds Loaded (reload time):
- japanese Type 4 Chi-To
- japanese Type 5 Ho-Ru
- italian AA Cannone-Mitragliera da 20/65 modello 35 for Breda Model 35
- japanese AA 1 x 20mm, type 2 for Type 98 Cannon Carrier
We have the effective range of the following weapons, but we need these datas too:
Maximum Range (range):
- Swedish Mauser rifle
- chinese Type 24 rifle
- Steyr-Mannlicher M1895 - Puska M95M rifle
- US M7 Grenade Launcher for M1903 Springfield rifle
- Fiat Revelli M-1935 Machine Gun
- Type 92 Machine Gun
- Sten Mk. II
- Sten Mk. IV (I guess it's the same of Sten Mk. II)
- Ribeyrolle 1918
- M1 Carbine
- M1-D Garand Sniper rifle
Oh almost forgot, is there still a limit on the number of new units you can add?
@Droidekas,
Yes, it is.
The number of units in RON is fixed, you can only replace existing ones.
