Further Game Scaling

Now, naval troops (Triremes, Quinquiremes, Warships) have been further slashed by a factor of 1/100. Thus if you have 12 Warships, it's the direct equivalent of 1.2 million otters. So just keep that in mind!

Again as with the previous change, gameplay is unaffected, because the rounding only happens when we display things. So the same troops are conceptually still there, they just appear as less to you, and gameplay isn't affected at all...

So if someone actually does collect a navy of 600 vessels, like Philip did, it will mean the equivalent of 60 million Warbands otters.

grah

feels really wierd, being used to having millions of troops.. I now have 230 chariots.. so that would be 230,000 chariots? or 2,300,000?

I noticed cash and food have been scaled as well.. Food: 52,273 would normally be rather bad, but as of now its green

it'll take some getting used to

230,000 chariots.

Then again a dude with 270 Warships would have the equivalent of 27 million otters...

And Cash has been scaled too.... whee... funness.

Mmmm

I think this is lovely except for my afore-mentioned disdain for the 0 troop defense, which is totally unrelated.

This is fun! But I like the first scale better. *nods*

What do you mean, 0 troop defense?

Where a person can defend against, say, naval battles when they have no naval troops, but have guards.

What are the revised off/def points of naval units and the def points of Guards?

Post by **Freenhult** » Wed Mar 08, 2006 3:32 am

Speaking of guards, do buildings still give defensive points? Sorry if I missed this.

Urran -- they're the same, except Ships are 100 times stronger.

Freenhunt -- check out the "Indies Take Notice" topic in BFR...
