VB2-Mayan Melee

[SuperBeaverInc.]

The only problem with my plan is that when we declare war on the Dutch, Rotterdam will most likely have its porduction rushed, like the AI usually does, possibly resulting in a autoraze, unless it is producing culture.

We want to upgrade our warriors to swordsmen before they start attacking. We will lose a lot of warrior (1 attack) going against spears (2 defense and in a town)

It is going to take alot of gold to upgrade all of those warriors. By the time they are upgraded, we will probably have to upgrade them to MDI. I also just figured that we could use them as garrisons in captured cities.

I wont be able to play untill tomarrow.

Edit: Link wont work

 

[SuperBeaverInc.]

You don't need to upgrade all of the warriors, just those in your attack force.

[CaptainCivFreak]

I have som really bad news. I don't know whats wrong... but somethings wrong with my C3C and I can't load a game if it comes from another computer, or sometimes even mine So I'll just have to observe this game from now on.

 

[andvruss]

IMPORTANT: I strongly recommend that everyone here downloads the latest patch for conquests before we continue. This beta patch solves such issues and the FP bug, and the double gpt bug. The link is:

[Ville]

Does the patch effect to Austria mod?

I dont think so but.....

 

[Sir Bugsy]

I think a more important question is: Will everyone need to have the patch? I've downloaded it, and will set up two directories... patched and unpatched, until the two teams I'm playing with agree to play with the patch.

I recommend we patch. The FP and gpt bugs are fixed and will make the game much more balanced.

 

[andvruss]

I have patched, but I didn't create another directory, so I dont know what that means for the 2 COnquest SG's I am in.
