I don't think we should whatev it but look for a better name. I'm also leaning towards solution 3, if there's consensus that it is justifiable to keep them grouped together. I don't know if there are enough sources to make an interesting purely Iberian faction and just going by gut-feeling I doubt it for the other groups.

I use the thumb buttons on my mouse.

I'm always willing to share, just contact me.

For years I've been told "theoretically yes" but no-one ever was able or willing to elaborate. Just having a franknfile in my saves made the game crash. Maybe it's more robust now, but just in case know that you have to delete it from outside the game.

Hello @HeWhoWanders, welcome to the forums. I'm not really certain where all the anger and frustration comes from. Is it because you can't beat one hard AI after a week of playing? It's certainly possible, but you might need more experience. If the previous replies didn't give you enough to go on, people here will answer questions, but just ranting and generally saying that your attacks aren't successful aren't good cues to give you hints.

Sure. But I like to manage XP, especially with my healers; so I like to gather my holy bunch ASAP and take it from there. Probably because they're fully garrisoned, then it's a real pain: hard to capture, loads of arrows... If necessary I do "inhale, exhale": attack, if they garrison withdraw out of sight so they come out, rinse & repeat.

I like to take ten healers along on my "great peace & unity world tour", they mostly negate any losses, even when capturing CCs. (Put 'em on aggressive so they don't fn flee when they catch a stray arrow.)

Of course, the many languages I speak are to blame! Nah, I goofed.

Did I get half? Feel more like eating now than research.

I go for the ranged (pierce) first, usually armor then dmg.

As a note to our international noobs: that depends on the keyboard layout; I never changed anything and it is 'Z' for me. Hotkeys can be reviewed and changed from the menu.

The limit is lifted when the limit is reached??? Anyway, was there a change? I remember a number of new members being stopped cold when posting too often (five posts in three days?)...

Jein (yes + no). You'll want an army composition that can beat your enemy, and for that you need dps (damage per second). Spears and pikes are good against cav and for holding enemy melee; if you have only those they'll get shot up by the enemy's dps dealers. Inversely you can snipe their dps dealers with yours (by default they attack the closest units). [I'll now report you to the mod team for not being a spammer so your noob post limit gets lifted.]

I don't know why you would want more HP inside a building. Note that most buildings don't fire arrows. I sometimes use them to warp my ranged units to the far side (garrison, set rally point on the other side, release) so they don't get torn to pieces by enemy melee, or just to save wounded units (threshold set to 50%). If you have any more questions people here usually give good answers. There's also plenty of guides (text & vid) to build order, eco(nomy), strategy etc.

Hi @vanz, welcome to the forums. Any units with blades will obliterate rams, in dire need use women (daggers); swarming them also keeps them from reaching their targets. To get started you can lower the difficulty of the AIs or set their behavior so they won't crash your base. All garrisoned soldiers add the same amount of arrows.

Yeah, well, I wouldn't bother with it. I wouldn't be willing to make it a priority, so my timing with getting them on and off the ships would be anything but optimal. I do put some effort into my trading, with production and research, usually changing routes once per game when I acquired huge tracts of land, but that's about what I'm willing to do.

Can anybody confirm that? I hated basically everything about ships so I stopped playing with them. I had it happen that a single allied ship completely blocked a river, and that a ship at the shore could be an insurmountable obstacle for all other ships...

I consider it a bug that they're selectable.

Marking all parts of a picture with a CC or John Connor would perfectly mirror their ability to play 0ad.

"adult" toy?

We only want the brightest of players in our community! jk. I think the concept of the name is quite memorable, and typing "0 a.d." (with quotation marks) into duckduckgo.com (not based on tracking) gave excellent results. That said, I suggested before we rename it "0 CE", alas it hasn't caught on.

Hi @Billie, welcome to the forums. Glad you could work it out. I'd probably try to create more free space: delete temporary files, see what in downloads you don't need anymore, backup files to another medium, empty the garbage bin...

The famous sea peoples! Would it be possible that the game skips invalid options instead of throwing an error at the user?

Started a match (6 Players, 3 teams), the game wouldn't have it: Does this map only work with specific settings? When I create a random random match I don't expect the game to nope out. logs280625.zip

I think it would be nice if the same buttons for the same units are always in the same order, even if it's in different buildings; especially thinking about Persian cav in stables and CCs here. (Why would you even put them in a different order?)
