AI Gallic Swords at less than 50 shields???

Gen. Maximus · May 13, 2003

The AI sheild bonus should take care of that considering Gallic are strong offensively. Well, that is assuming that Cracker will be giving games of higher difficulty!

Anyway, just feel that we should not change as not to drive away the die-hard originals or confuse the newbies.

I think that the GS should remain as they are.

The celts are usually a pushover in the early ages because of the GS costs and this can be taken into account when playing the game. Discovering the celts on your borders gives a very good indication of where your first war will take place!

If the human is playing as the celts then they have to try and deal with the higher costs (a slightly higher difficulty level). Personally I find GS so strong that they are worth the upgrade cost from warriors, mainly due to the retreat ability which saves 50 shields per retreat.

I enjoy the new units that are added to the GOTM but don't like the idea of modding the existing ones.

Should the cost of the Gallic/Euro Sword be reduced when the AI plays the Celts

Yes, reduce the base cost to 30 shields like all other swords.

Yes, reduce the cost to 30-Regent;27-Monarch;32-Emperor;24-Deity.

Yes, reduce the cost to 40-Regent;36-Monarch;32-Emperor;24-Deity.

Do this randomly at base costs of 30, 40, or 50.

I think the unit is overpriced and hurts the AI Celts but do not want any changes.

I do not agree the unit is overpriced for the AI and do not want any changes.
