Gurken Khan

I captured a barrack as Han and couldn't produce archers; or maybe it was crossbow men, I don't remember. If I have a barrack what is the difference with supplying my dudes with bows or crossbows? Why are the options limited? This is a general thing: I think captured buildings should give you the same options as buildings you built yourself. Is there actually any reason why that isn't the case?

Personally, I think they are modest; if I'm not mistaken, sometimes it was even deviated from sources to give the women tops when historically their torsos would be naked. Except for the Mauryan female champions - which are basically bikini babes - I don't feel that this is generally viewed as a problem, so I don't expect much effort to be put into; but as a mod, of course everything is possible.

Welcome to the forums! You're playing Alpha 18? (Current version is A26.)

I feel cheated and hate it when the AI deletes a CC I'm about to capture. I briefly swear and move on, or I swear, quickly build a new CC and then move on.

No forge upgrades?

I just tested it and seems you're right. From the description I would expect him to, tho. @Freagarach

I don't understand the thread topic. My experience with DMs to devs was different. Would be interesting to know what a new player/new account wrote to the devs to maybe understand why they didn't respond (positively). Sorry you had a bad experience, all the best. @Stan` How can a user with one post and 0 reputation be rank 2?

When reporting a bug it's usually helpful to attach the logs; here's how to find them: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/GameDataPaths I think hwdetect and mainlog are the most important, but if you can, just zip your logs folder and upload it.

Strange that you have plenty of metal and always suffer for wood. Metal is the overwhelming majority res I trade and barter for, with all the tecs and champions.

Nice idea, but we don't have hippopotamuses in the game. :/ Last two mentions of them I found in the forums are 10 and 20 years old respectively.

@LetswaveaBook The third gathering upgrade used to be 50%; I assume it was discussed and considered OP. (I didn't look for a discussion on that.) I'm definitely no fan of the proposed metal costs; in my experience metal is the most scarce/valuable res in most circumstances.

I think it's a matter of taste. I would be fine to call an isthmus Corinthian when it has a Mediterranean biome and is only inspired by that location and not a real world map turned into a game map (like Ngorongoro). Anyway, that is all very interesting and all, however I'd like to come back to my point that I don't think "Neareastern" is a good term to use in the game, because - to repeat myself - it is a) eurocentric and b) not a term used at that time.

I hope you are successful!

I don't get how this is bad; I suppose the opposite would be a very specific pronunciation and I don't think that would be better. Probably not. Yeah everyone speaks Mandarin!

Necro! I still think something with Cappadocia would be better than "neareastern".

@ShadowOfHassen I think you should continue with the encyclopedia; a27 will come eventually. I believe. For your final question: look at the tickets and solve some.

"Only Han buildings can garrison ministers." I feel that this is not correct as ministers can also enter the buildings of allies. Is it intended that they don't increase the arrow count?

Unless the map settings somehow determined that, the AI behavior is random (it has three presets: balanced, defensive, aggressive).

The Settlers of Catan had an Alexander the Great expansion.

No shute, Sherlock! That's also what the message says. I think this (small) war ship should fit next to the dock, that's why I thought maybe the ships have to leave from the front or something. (A bit frustrating, especially since other ships spawned fine.) But yeah, I agree on the ships' size; in fact I've been complaining about them for years...

Ships can only come out of a dock at a certain angle or what?
