yup!

Guys, what's up with this new bottom board (with 'refresh' and 'jump to next' buttons)? that doesn't let me write on chat, and even if I place the chat window on top (which I hate) I'm not able to read the bottom lines of the log.

same here!! (and there's a creepy new board on the bottom that doesn't let me to write on chat)

thanks guys!

Goran and Random are right, there's definitely a 'bug' there (gentle word for 'clamorous mistake' made by the mapmaker when writing the XML ) HJ2 Knight should not be able to reach N29. Knights move up to 3 hexes not 4.

as for the change concerning HA Castle... I'm up for it. I reckon that there's ...

Good option!!! Must say that I've always liked this map

- I think that adding priest, ports and conquistadores to the legend is not needed. They are never mentioned and represented by the correpondent icons.


I don't quite agree Aramandolas, I think that every icon on map should be named on legend (at least once)



I will need your help...How can ...

Doc, from what I can understand from the legend, Clergy can bombard any Priest and it's attacked by any priest (no mention to all this being valid inside realms though), Nobility and Bourgeoisie work within the same mechanics as the Clergy.

The one thing that might be worth to mention in legend ...

The idea of relating attacks within realms seems good and conceptually coherent.
I'd not make Bourgeoisie stronger than the other 2 features ( Clergy & Nobility) by allowing them to assault any Port, independently from whatever realm/empire they belong. Also, Doc's idea of making both realms more ...

Sweet!!

I prefer the 'no bevel' version

..and definitely a better option to reduce those pope killer neutrals

Thank you!!!



-Do u think 10 neuts in the pope would suits better?
I believe so.
-The port in peru connects to chile and filipinas through the brown route(i should adjust the rout slihgtly to the right to make sure its clear it connects to chile port)
Yup, that will solve it
-You think cabo ...

Hi Armandolas!! Looking good

Just feeling that those 15 neutral on the Pope, might be a bit too much. For a more dynamic and fluid game I'd reduce them.

Also, the port in Peru, shouldn't it connect to Chile and the Philippines?
And about sea lines/routes, I know (and understand) your intention ...

Yes DF3...

Still, I'd rather start on SF2 which gives access to 3 lesser ports, than start on PF3 (for instances) that gives access to just 1 (and shared with PF2) lesser port.

This might be an issue.....

I'm totally for it! Actually I did start a thread a few years ago,suggesting it:

Seems better now. There's just this thing about those 'starting position' Fleets that leaves me uncomfortable:

some of them can assault ports while others don't right?


some 17th contemporary font suggestion, for tittle purposes:

Thanks Vaughn!! I appreciate it .. and sorry for being the cause of so many wasted hours....

As for the fleets, I think that adding 'sea passages' between them could definitely help. Btw, can fleets assault ports?

Even so I think SP should directly connect each other

Sorry! I meant 'shouldn't'

but on Napoleon you don't have starting positions. Regions are equally distributed by players.

On Conquer Rome and the Third Crusade, we have a mix of starting positions and distributable regions... something that you're considering here from what I understood.
Even so I think SP should directly ...

Hi Vaughn!

the problem with making the fleets starting positions, as they're now, is that some are directly connected, while others are 'protected' by SP regions (the case of DF2 and PF2). This can be an issue IMO, as they're not equally balanced. Of course that being so hard for ports to attack ...

I should probably post it in the suggestions thread....

Hi Vaughn!

Good Job! I'm liking it, but I have just a small set of questions:

-Will fleets start neutral?
-How many neutrals will those 'Sea Passages' have?
-Ports will start neutral I guess, how many?
-Will the Spice Islands start neutral (this could meant a lot in terms of game-play, being ...

Amen!!!
