Shield bonus from clearing forest can only be received once per game
Anyone know the implications of this?
Can I only harvest one tile per game now? Or does this mean one harvest per tile, per game? The first seems a bit drastic to me. I really liked being able to legitimately rush something by clearing the forests all around. The second I can live with, but I still don't understand the reasons why they would change this in the first place. I felt a bit dumb harvesting forests around one of my cities (after applying the patch), only to find out I didn't get anything in return. |

from what I noticed in the new game I created after I patched is that you only get 10 extra shields per square... not sure what happens if you plant a forest and then cut it down on a tile where there wasn't originally a forest though. if you plant a forest on a tile where you already harvested a forest you won't get the shields bonus next time you harvest that tile.

this doesn't actually make any sense...
in real life you can grow a forest, and chop it down as many times as you feel like |

In real life, it takes less than a year to walk from New York to Boston.

Morten,
I believe it's one harvest per city but like everything in the patch, it will take time to figure out what really happens. scavenger, This might be a clearer way of putting it: Realism is secondary to making the game fun and balanced. |

The only problem I have with the whole system is keeping track of which squares have been cut down, and which haven't.

Wouldn't the one WITHOUT forest be the cut down ones and the ones still WITH forest be the ones you have yet to cut down?
Why would you replant forest now? |

And in real Life you canīt grow a full blown Forest in one year by just assigning enough Foresters to it

"If it takes one woman nine months to make a baby, then nine women can make a baby in just one month."
This attitude is popular among engineering managers!
