Overview:

The Foxians are half-human, half-vulpine race that possesses the alignments of Serenity and Nihility, compared to the Republic's angelic and demonic powers. The Imperials identified these as "Furries" due to their cunning nature and highly assertive. They have a wide range of warriors that have never seen in battle and their two alignments can make a difference.

Pros:
  • Nihility-based Foxians (Red) deal bonus damage to heavy armor.
  • Serenity-based Foxians (Teal) deal bonus damage to light armor.

Cons:
  • Serenity-based Foxians lacks melee combat.
  • Nihility-based Foxians lacks magic combat.
  • Mechanized units don't have both alignments.

Buildings:
1. Earth Hall - Primary structure, used to train Foxian Peasants and receive gathered resources. Contains the Backpack and Bounty Assault upgrade. Can be upgraded to Commerce and then Palace to enable the production of additional types of structures and units.
2. Vulpine Hovel - Provides food, which increases the maximum number of units that can be trained.
3. Reclusion Post - Primary troop production building. Trains Footmen, Spear Throwers, Markswomen and Huntresses. Also contains the Defend, Foxian Ranged Mastery, Agonizing Weapons, Siege Glaives and Animal War Training upgrades.

9. Heldrake Roost - Trains Heldrakes and Carrion Vultures. Also contains the Spiked Plating and Vulture Hatchling upgrades.
10. Foxian Archives - Creates a shop with purchasable items. The items available depend upon what level of upgrade your Town Hall has (Earth Hall, Commerce, or Palace) and which buildings you have.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION
  • A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  • A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  • Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.
