Diving deep into Sassanian military stuffs is no easy task, i need some time to explore when a lot of information is contradicting against each other. Sassanians seems to prefer mining and siege towers when they conduct siege warfare, therefore i suggest Delenda Est team to consider sword auxiliary unit. The appearance of this particular troop should have: 1. A helmet (ridge helmet) or mail coif 2. A mail hauberk 3. A wicker shield/buckler.

What about the navy? Siege weapons?

@Stan`

If they come and post Instagram-style photos or stock photos, you can tell it's a bot. And they look more like ( like celebrities) models and they don't look like people like us who aren't, you know, models. Artificial intelligence is not yet capable of doing many things due to Moral limitations. You can ask it to have a coherent conversion or a moral dilemma and with that we already discover if it is a bot

Macedonian shield bears own Spartiate's.... yes spartiates get more lvl 250 vs 220 with their tech, but the extra 3 dmg they get is enough to off set that. Skiri can be OP mid game, if used well... but out side of that, its really brasidas and skrimishers with hoptlite meat shield... I am fine with spartans lacking some of the flexibility of other civs... but at least spartiates should be more effective since they were at the core of spartan life and success

Hi @541ky, welcome to the forums. You do realize this is a FOSS project?

Some more thoughts in this recent thread:

thanks! I just dont know if i can wait that long

Nah it would be good, but I don't know if it can nor how to do it with the current forum software.

It's probably gonna get worse as AI becomes more mainstream.

@Stan` if the bots are becoming like this one, it is going to be tough

First message on the forum, to talk about a pay-to-win mobile game with a suspicious account name and a shutterstock profile picture?

https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/Alpha27 lots of stuff for sparta including unique techs designed to boost the spartiate's stats. Also they promote into a stronger version called "olympic champion" Also, we made agis a much stronger hero like he used to be but also gave him a passive metal discount for units.

I really like this game. I spend about 6 hours a day playing. I find the game rise of kingdoms quite good and full of strategy

Is my idea bad or impossible to implement?

Does anyone remember the day when sometimes when loading game it would say spartiates the strongest infinitry in the game? THAT is such BS! Now I only tested against mace.... but even with Leonids 50 spartiates lose to 50 of mace spear champs and definitely 50 sword champs. When are spartiates gonna be useful? They should at least do as much dmg as mace spear, or have more armor? Maybe even be as fast as nake fanatics. Spartans are maybe the ONLY civ that dont have useful champs IMO... Way more effieent to go skiri and skrimishers with OP Brasidas. Thoughts? I heard there may be improvements for A27... not sure i can wait that long! What about teaking them in com mod?

Indeed, for there is no longer a "gui/common/setup_resources.xml" file, but an entire folder instead. Just one example. And then, how and what to edit in the listed files? Just says to edit them, but not in what way or which lines.

Sounds like a valid UX issue indeed.

I believe they are saying the docs might be outdated rather than a bug in the code itself. They added a new resource following the docs, and some information was missing, causing errors.

@user1 My lobby username: ashishantil Opponent: totomas He was the host of the game, and when I destroyed him with consular bodyguards and took his cc and wonder, he just quit the game without resigning. Thank you! 2024-05-03_0003.zip

Interesting. Wonder what's up with the jpeg artifacts. Probably he should have credited us but seems hard on that website

Carthage 5: New Friends After departing Crete, you continue to sail West, in search of a new land to settle. A storm is ahead and you take the small fleet north on the coast of the main continent, in lands you know little about. upon making landfall, you are greeted with dignity by an Italian tribe who are happy to resupply you -- but they need help themselves. Their land has been under pressure from Celtic tribes and they ask for your assistance in defeating them. You have a feeling your relations with the Italics will last for a long time and as you need allies, you agree. Your objective is to assist the Italics with destroying the Celtic settlements in the region. There are three of them, two to the south-east and one directly to the east on the shoreline. Beware of sea raiders. AI Settings: Celts (enemies) and Italians (friends) should be Petra AI with a difficulty of your choice. All others should be Sandbox.
