This mod eliminates the "two-week" tactic.

This mod eliminates the "two-week" tactic.
Due to the large amount of rare resource, we will be collecting it for a long time.
In the original version, you can collect the required amount of resources in two weeks, and if the city level was higher than two on the first day, you can manage to build level 7 creatures within two weeks (usually at the end of the second week) (exceptions - Necromancer, where you need to build a lot before that).

And that's the right thing to do! The "two-week" tactic is the dumbest tactic because city development is just as important a part of the game as everything else. Otherwise, people get used to worrying about resources only at the beginning of the game, and by the middle (end of the first month - beginning of the second), all mines lose their strategic importance due to the loss of the need for resources (well, this naturally does not apply to gold). If the city is being built throughout the game, it is much more interesting - here, mines are important throughout the game, and the "total build-up" tactic will not work - you will have to think more deeply about the city development plan, as it will simply not be possible to have everything at once.

Please share screenshots of the Necromancer building tree and the resources required for it. There will be too many requirements for dragons, which affects the unit balance.

Generally speaking, if it comes down to it, it makes sense to slightly increase the cost of Tier 7 buildings, but at the same time strengthen them and increase their recruitment cost. As for the Necromancer, it would be logical to change the undead raising calculation formula for dragons (if possible) or weaken the general formula slightly, while giving them proper Level 7 units. I have an idea regarding this: you could recolor bone dragons green (or even leave them as is), give them the ability to shoot poison clouds (similar to Dracoliches) and create a corresponding animation (there is an animation where it yawns; you could use the Lich's shot animation and attach it). Similarly, do this with other dragons, but recolor the poison clouds to the appropriate color. You could even keep the same stats, just give them half the range

first of all we need players for the balance. I am playing my mod with my friend. Yes, i think i can change the dark energy for units, but i am not sure. As for animations, I haven't changed anything regarding that. For 4 months I have been trying to change hardcoded things, but I still haven't succeeded. If I can do it, of course I will consider your suggestion. I want to edit more, but I cannot edit hardcoded scripts (heroes 5.exe edit), and I am still trying to find a way.

and i apologize if I don't understand, because I am using google translate. I hope I understand what you are trying to say :)
