My apologies everyone.
You can now download the mod, music and maps from the first two posts.
I like the summoning circle, water maps are nice. Ships feels little OP, you made them too fast and they can quite easily take down black dragon (but probably I expect my T4 unit to do all the job ).
the catapult are less deadly and the scorpion have some attack +

Thanks for the feedback Lagi. I'll look into the OP ships from Taros. Which ship took the Black Dragon out easily?
