Quick Q about the plague properties

[againsttheflow]

In Da Rules (see last spoiler) and elsewhere it mentions that the various values of the plague having to do with time are measured in years.

I wanted to doublecheck if it really was years or simply units of time?

If you have a scenario with week based timeline that has increments of 1 will a value of 1 in the duration field mean that the plague will last 52 turns?

 

[Steph]

It must be turn, not year.

Ok well that's good news but contrary to what I could find to read on the subject... Would the same apply to the resources appearance and disappearance values?

Also, Da Rules say that

Variance: Determines how close in years to the earliest start the plague arrives, specified as a percent of the grace Period. (0-500)

so which level would make the plague happen soonest? 500? It appears as 5 in the Conquests plague.biq

 

[Steph]

I suppose you can just replace "years" by "turn" in Da rules

 

[againsttheflow]

Great!

The variance is the one other thing that's still confusing me.
