Re: The effect of command stars - moddable?
I posted on TW center as well in response to this, but I figure I'll post this here as well.
This still seems less overpowered than stars were in MTW. For every second star there you got 1 defence and 1 offence. Since most units stats have way less offence in this game than defence (eg: it is common to see units with offence less than half the defence, like lots of roman units, quite a bit of cav and nearly all spear units) I don't see the problem.
Also stats there in general were much lower. The +1 to attack and defence there was on units that had at most 8 or 9 as a stat and most had far less like between 3 and 5. Here it is units often have 15 or more defence, with some higher ones being in the 20s. Attacks while lower than defence its still common to find units with over 10 attack, like some heavy cav and heavy infantry, also a bunch of the better archer units.
The only thing I can think of that makes it a problem for RTW is its less often that an enemy general will get lots of stars. In MTW this is almost always through heirs, and what they start at is often decent. Here people start with 0 in everything most often.
