First of all, the relation of military points and economic seems to make a lot of sense: To increase your total score by 1000, you can either gather 10,000 resources or you kill enemy units which cost 10,000 resources. So it might be the best ratio already. Your suggestion that spent resources should be the eco score has a problem: If I send half of my resources to teammates, my score will be very low. Maybe in the current situation tributes should influence the total score: If I send 100 resources to my teammates, my total score increases by 10. If I receive 100, it decreases by 10. This effect could be doubled if spent resources should count as eco score.

Not enough ram? Build more siege workshops and create more ram

Kush small pyramids and Gaul hero Brietomatus don't improve gather rate of cavalry (non-mercenary citizen cavalry isn't in the worker class) - isn't that a bug??

Easy solution: Never play Danubius! : D The bolts are a graphic issue. They look nice though and are better visible than arrows, so I wouldnt mind all arrows look like this. Projectiles are just too small to be seen, especially slinger bullets.

I've gotten the impression that objects like trees which are close to the gate keep an open gate open. So in that case you must keep an eye on the gate or remove that object early. Or keep the gate closed. Actually I think that if a player resigns or gets defeated, all of his units and buildings could vanish instead of becoming gaia. Iberians dont need a lot of changes, but objects like apple trees shoulnt be able to spawn inside gates, walls and wall towers - they should rather get small a distance. (With "inside walls" i dont mean inside the circle but in the interior of the wall so they are blocked by the wall)

Bartering resource x for resource y while the price stays almost constant. Should it be like this? And well, the resources are somehow higher than the starting resources, just by bartering, even though this are not even macedonians.

Must have taken place in a parallel universe

You can filter replays by rated / unrated. And if you are on version 25 instead of 25b it might happen often that you dont get rating points.

As you can see here, bartering can be generally exploited. What about a low limit of bartering per minute? Then the macedonian team bonus could stay as it is. Edit: If one limits bartering to a reasonable frequency, the team bonus could become rather weak and might be replaced by a different bonus.

Edit: With macedonians its the easiest, but I just discovered that some weird barters can also be made without the bonus. Maybe the problem can be solved if mass bartering (bartering 500) will be replaced by 5 barters of 100 in a row?

The custom rating mod already covers this

I'd like to remind that it would be really helpful if matches could be loaded. That would decrease the damage of the "ddosing" already a lot. The savegame could easily be extracted from the replay.

Thanks No. It's better to keep it secret ; ) Ok

@cl2488 Woo, a new record ; ) 7:01, almost 7:00 By the way the rules mean "dont make more women than they are 50" instead of "dont make more than 50 women so the maximum number is 54", right? Nobody ever exploited it. 701.zip

Well, I just upload it, nothing special

He might have not played rated for many months. Many many months

Wrong. Alexander the great has an attack bonus against heroes. The game doesn't lack additional forms of attack boni, it's fine

What a BOSS! the winrate of borg is nubish in comparison to this...

KDR = Number of units which you kill (except gaia units) / number of units which you lose (also while fighting gaia) So 0.9 sounds not great. But this depends also on the unit types, so 0.9 can actually be good if your opponents use units which are more expensive.

Here the matches of Letswaveabook vs me Letswaveabook_vs_WeirdJokes.zip

I think "pop" counts units in the queue, but "inf" doesn't

That's an unnecessary complication. If you want to play such a game, maybe try Widelands.

Crossbowmen vs rams? Good luck with that xD

Yes No

There is an option that allows garrisoning the heroes. Yekaterina, maybe you should wonder if your habit to train only women at the start is always the best approach. Some early soldiers can make a difference in the hero fights.
