Review:

Catastophic changes all the way. PLEASE look at the “the world”-entry in the utopia-menu to see which races are good and which are not. I had the feeling the races were pretty balanced the last two ages. Dwarf needs an upgrade. BUT GIVING elves fog will let you have 80% elves next age. Elf is strong anyways, he needs no super-boost. Just help those dwarves a bit, perhaps humans or orcs too and change the elites to be more offensive - thats enough change.

Buildings

* Armouries changed to give x2 draft discount (from 1.5)
* Towers changed to produce 12 runes (from 10)

* Homes improve birth rates by x4 (from x3)

Review:

Everything nice. Good changes. (More runes helps elves too, btw.)

Personalities

* Sage gets 0.5 books per acre per hour and -50% science losses

* Warrior - 15% Attack time

* War Hero gets +25% enemy casualties

Review: Why boosting sage even more? He’s the strongest in raw power anyways. Weakening Warrior and boosting War Hero is fine.
