[jonpfl]

All,

I got a copy. I am at work so I can't load it up but I can answer questions.

There is a good sized book in it and they changed some things.

Fire away

Thx

Congatulations btw! if you're telling the treuth.... You are the second to make a report to say I've got em

Post a picture with you and the box, it's the only way you can prove it.

 

[asabahi]

Come on, post something. A little morsel of information.

 

[jonpfl]

Didn't see anything about new resources (in regular game)

Horseback is now classical
Math increases food chop yields by 50%
calendar now centers world map
gunpowder is requirement for pinch production

production yeild from workers is reduced to 20

a bunch of changes for units. some notable ones :
increased production for prats
decreased production for jaguars
the quencha unit starts with combat 1 promotion

i am off to lunch soon so post any questions

 

[Jheronimus]

Well, that depends there was a photoshoped proof picture a day ago setting us on the wrong path, so I don't know if this is good proof. A lot of in-game screenshots are better ways to proof it...

I am at work so I can't produce a picture

I posted some info about the game so far

I think I read barracks are cheaper to make but only 3 xp now

I am at work so I can't produce any pics, sorry

When you get the game, verify what I previously posted and you will I am serious

Tell us more about the chineese wall, will they only stop barbs or do they also have somesort effect on your rival civ units

 

[Samson]

The biggest question I have, and it has been asked before, is does the Mali Mint (and the English Stock exchange?) increase total commerce or just money? Is it multiplative with the reaserch / gold buildings (like buerocracy is)?

That looks like the 1.61 update.

 

[homeyg]

Some of those things look rather familiar.

 

[AndreasS]

Yeah! Perhaps they list those things as changes in the manual because the expansion also includes the latest patch?

 

[jonpfl]

I installed it on my coworkers machine

I grabbed this

 

[jonpfl]

Sorry for the small picture but that is what my coworker sent it as.

As you can see, it is a stable improvement

I typed the other stuff right out of the book. It is on page 102 when you get it

Hmm. I wonder if your boss aproves such use of company resources.

Congrats on getting it BTW.

 

[ChrTh]

Can you get us a screenshot of the Mali Mint and/or English Stock Exchange?

 

[Mîtiu Ioan]

That looks like the 1.61 update.

... which are normal to be mentioned in the manual now ...

 

[jonpfl]

Tell us more about the chineese wall, will they only stop barbs or do they also have somesort effect on your rival civ units

exactly from the book (page 34)

cost 250
cult +2
gpp +2
requires masonry
effects : prevents barbs from entering cultural borders on that continent. doubles great general pionts generated from battles within your cultural borders
obsolets : nothing

 

[AndreasS]

Jonpfl, could you please load the Rise of Rome scenario, and find out if there are more then the 5 playable civs included? Minor civs or something? I'd really, really like to know, because I cant wait to try that scenario!
