    Army bug

    Serious issue came up in my last game. First time I had armies of advanced armor. Im thinking oh boy oh boy. WRONG. One of the biggest features of advanced armor (and panzers) is the multiple attack. Slap four together in an army and guess what? One single attack. Its REALLY frustrating and...

    rate of fire?

    But Malys they also have a much higher bombard number than ironclads. I think what it is is this: Bombard=chance of a hit and damage done Range=obvious RoF=how many targets CAN be hit.

    Had it up to here with the respawning!

    If you havent explored all of the major lands and you wipe out an AI they autmoatically "respawn". This is good as it prevents rushing. If you didnt have the map explored by 1495 it serves you right.

    Global warming + Foreign advisor

    No shirley. Not at all. If you have all your units on fortify or doing something you might want to change one. If it didnt ask for approval when you had all your units working you would never get to go because your turn would come and leave you. If you dont believe me set "Always ask before...

    They surrender more easily after losing any major city let alone their capital. Their government is transported though to the next largest/most cultured city.

    Great Library?

    Yep, after education the library is toast. Not that it matters, the most succesful play styles involve you having tech before your neighbors. The game Im playing right now Im mowing through cavalry/long bow armies with a single modern armor.

    That God Damned UN

    Its a pain in the ass. For those of us who are often "Less than diplomatic" (come on, tell me some of you have never wish in the counterproposal screen when they ask for tributes or payments etc one of the choices included some four letter words and !!! marks ;)) Is there any way to "disable"...

    stupid ai with its cheating

    Fortresses add a defensive bonus for all units on the same square as it. Yes, it works. Trust me. Ive seen enough elite infantry in a fortress take out mech infantry to know this for a fact.

    Wonders becoming obsolete ...

    Im fairly sure this isnt true. When I discovered steam power and Japan lost the hanging gardens their biggest city besides the capital fell into turmoil and revolted when it was on my border. Now, maybe they didnt lose the hanging garden but if they didnt somethign went seriously wrong.

    What is with the *governors* and their $#%# Catapults???

    If youre jugling 50-100 cities not only should you not be playing on warlord you should know the keys to using governors. Christ thats allot. Youd have to dominate a huge map to have 100 cities and corruption would be more than your GNP for your average city.
