(slight rant warning :furious3: )

That’s the Freaking question!!!:wall:

Its been one week and I've seen about 3 or 4 threads claming "Faction/unit so&so is underpowered". And then proceeding to give some silly arguments, or findings.

I don't know what the deal is:dizzy2: ... I mean the Celtic/Sweboz under/overpowered thread has been around for a LONG time, and I don't recall seeing some many threads pop up about "underpowered this and that" but NOW its just insane.

Also, people are throwing out posts about "underpowered this & that" like its nothing.

I understand there are some tweaking and chages to be made, also engine limits that worsens/helps battle performance of some units, and there is no problem with that. Its GOOD to talk about those issues :yes: ... but then claiming "so&so is underpowered", and then somebody comes in "no because" makes the whole discussion (of how to better battle performance within game limits) go out the window.

And if anyone steps out and just glances at this form, the whole thing is giving the impression the this mod is completely F*up with unbalanced units and whatnot. :wall:

i hope people think 2x before posting "underpowered/overpowered" threads and posts since they have the tendency to F*up discussions. :yes:

Chuck Norris is overpowered when facing normal foes. However, Chuck Norris gets slaughtered by Bruce Lee's fists (with an AP bonus) faster than Hastatis getting slaughtered by Gaestarnes .

Chuck Norris is just right in EB.
People complain that he beats unit X or slaughters unit Y but its simple fact that historically Chuck Norris was so powerful that he could even defeat Ninjas :chucks:
I know there is precious little hard evidence to base this fact on, however I uncovered a little known inscription on the wall of the toilet at work which states:

CHCK NRRS PWNS NNJS

So clearly contemporary observers were of the opinion that Chuck Norris was far more powerful than Ninjas.
This is well represented in the EB Chuck Norris unit being supremely powerful on the battlefield.
It is in-fact possible to defeat the EB Chuck Norris, but it requires an entire stack of Ninjas, far more than ever existed in reality in one place at any time.

Which brings me to a slightly off topic point: The unit description for Ninjas needs to be fixed, currently it only says "These guys are pretty neat; and by neat, I mean quite good".
Given the (Chuck Norris notwithstanding) elite nature of the Ninja, I feel that this sentence needs to be strengthened somewhat.

I have found this happens in many popular computer games. I use to play Starwars galaxies until the this and that class is too powerful crowd cried enough and the devs nerfed every popular class and then rewrote the game. I have not played that game since. People should realized that not everyone is the same and each class in what ever game is not the same. Everyone/ class has its own strengths and weaknesses. Each player should play and learn what those are for their favorite classes or in this game's case nation. I like to play Roma it has its own strengths and weaknesses like all the others. One should not charge directly into a wall of spears for instance. Pick up a book on basic infantry tactics and look up flanking. :book: That maneuver does wonders in battle. If your game is too easy try vh/vh. The new upgrade which I think is outstanding, seems too take care of the boredom that came along with RTW vanilla. :soapbox:

sorry for the rant

I am humbly wondering if the Helvetii complained after the battle of Bibracte 58BC that the Romans were overpowered...
My opinion is simple: If a faction seems overpowered, well, sucks to be me. What can I do to overcome this problem? Complaining on this board is only the final option, when all others are exhausted, and then, it is more often than not just a simple question. I agree that some gamers are very quick to come to conclusions that some faction or other is overpowered. My advice:
Deal with it.

I am of the controversial opinion that, no matter how much help he may have had, Bruce Lee still pwnd Chuck Norris. Therefore: Bruce Lee is more powerful than Chuck Norris.

Now, if Bruce Lee ever got beaten by anyone in any of his adventures, then said person is more powerful than both Bruce Lee AND Chuck Norris!

Now there's a frightening thought :dizzy2:

You're just biased towards Chuck Norris, everyone knows he stole all his ideas from the Greeks :furious3:
Soon you'll be asking why Chuck Norris doesn't have lorica segmentata in EB :wall:
If you want evidence, then recently there have been several findings of ancient warriors - Mr.T's jewelry has been found in a bog north of Copenhagen (also proves that Romans lived in Denmark), and in southern France there are cave drawings from approximately 4300 BC showing Bruce Lee beating up neanderthals. What there is not, however, is any evidence of Chuck Norris. I also have to add that his shield design is medieval Celtic and has nothing to do with ancient Europe. There.

People that complain usually haven't played EB long enough to understand how different it is from any other TW game they've played. It's a patient man's game. Ususually the common principle that exists in all of the "overpowered/underpowered" threads is that the complainer wants something faster.

I remember one recent post where someone thought that the game should be modded so that every faction's capital has the highest level barracks in 272. Their reasoning: "because it would be uber-cool." Same with the people that want Lorica Segmentata for the Romans or Spartans to be unbeatable.

I just presume that anyone posting about such and such a unit or such and such a faction is around 14 years old until I see something to show me that they've put a lot of thought and consideration into their suggestions. Konny and his discussion on the money script, for example, shows how reasonable people try to make helpful suggestions.

Granted, I wish Baktria wasn't the presumptive favorite for the Saka v. Pahlava v. Baktria matchup, but I know that the EB team is working hard to balance every faction... they don't need me complaining and starting threads about how they are overpowered (besides, it probably has nothing to do with them being overpowered, but with economics).

But, overall, this has been a hilarious thread to read. Sorry I'm not as clever as the rest of you so as to be funny. The "vh/vh movie difficulty" comment was particularly good.

Since Bruce Lee was brought up, this seems an opportune time to mention another inscription I've discovered.
This one was in the hallway leading to the loo at a club:

BRCE LVV S NNSYPNSY -CN

Scholars I've consulted are divided on the correct interpretation of this phrase but I believe that this engraving marks the spot where a Ninja dared suggest to Chuck Norris that Bruce Lee could kick his ass.
Related evidence such as some police tape, a blood stained black boot with separated toe & a guitar pick were found in a nearby cupboard.
Some believe these are merely relics of later Ninja activity due to the proximity to babes at the bar & because the police tape is of a type whose first known use is after Chuck Norris.
However if Chuck Norris was around the bar hanging out with babes & killing Ninjas, the police most likely will have needed to order substantial new stocks of police tape.
It is therefore quite possible that this period was in fact the driver of evolution to the new type of police tape :bow:

Danest
11-17-2007, 21:54
I think Bruce Lee Probably had two hitpoints, and lost the first one early enough in the fight. Either that, or he had more stamina than Norris and simply outlasted him. And I like the idea that you could see the Roman world wonder on the battle map while they were fighting.

MerlinusCDXX
11-17-2007, 22:15
again, folks,
history proves that the use of the Bartixian Chuck Norris clone was WAY more cost effective, something to do with the standardization of training language and equipment issue (the Stetson Helmet and Denimothorax) so the unit had a lot more men and was better armored.

However, if your Faction Leader wasn't hit with the "declining civilization" trait series, which disables the Bruce Lee temple building tree in addition to making it economically impossible to survive the 1st 5 turns, then the recruitment of a mass of Bruce Lees was possible, but only if your start position was rich in mining resources and had good sea trade. So, that said, if you were able to mass Bruce Lees, you had basically already met your faction's victory conditions, but if you were at all short of your VC's, the Chuck Norris strategy was pretty much the only way to go.

Bruce Lee doesn't have a cataphract camel...although I'm sure each one of his six packs may be quite large and misinterpreted as a camel's hump.

Remember in Way of the Dragon/Return of the Dragon, when Bruce Lee manages to grab off a handfull of Chuck Norris's chest hairs? That was Lee's AP trait at working subduing Norris's chest hair armor.

Nobody is that holy. Virgins are overestimated while they're underopwered. Every connaisseur knows that. Why do you think Jessus chosed Magdalena? He knew his game.

Good to know to be part of a forum where not only gams-addicted nerds meet; all this sophicticated discussion about religious/philosophical themes makes me really confused, but it is although a tremendous evidence of yours, the forum members sholarship.

But one more questions is to ask:

What gave us th EB-developers besides a well-balanced game experience, regional AOR-units, a huge and beautyfull map, historical buildings, under-/overpowered factions, naked barbarians, sleepless nights, placed on the waiting list girl friends, coffein abuse and and a totally new computergame culture???

EB gives me hope. To make myself clear: if I can restrict myself to only 2 hours of EB a day, this means I am damn strong. I can basically do anything if I can stop myself through willpower not abusing such a wonderful invention. It gives me hope man.

Bruce is sorta like Alexander, both died of a reaction to a medical condition + drug overdose (Alexander of disease + too much alcohol, Lee of allergic reaction to medication + possibily cannibas)

It may seem strange to you, but there are russians of black origin, ethiopian among them. One of my friends is of that kind.
And BTW, one of the most famous classic russian poets if not the most famous (Александр Сергеевич Пушкин) was of ethiopian origin.
I've heard there's a statue of him in Ethiopian capital, but people there don't know exactly, why.

Yup, and since Russia extends into East Asia/Siberia, there are actually a lot of nomadic Russian moose herders of Mongolian descent.

well, not sure about moose, but we do have people (not a lot of them) very similar to yours indians and eskimos, their close relatives in genetic meaning and very few of them really do still keep to the old ways

Right - but what's that make Bruce's mom then ? This is some far out stuff here, man.

"Jah sez: mo' herb."
- Ganja Farmer

It would obviously depend if Bruce Lee was born a man and ascended or born the god creating Universe. Obviously the easier of the two to explain is that he ascended. Born a mere simple man, and slowly become the all powerful creator of gods.

But, and of course this is a major but... If he was born as the all powerful Universe god creator. Then his parents must obviously be, other more powerful universes. Some deep stuff man. If there's more powerful universe creating universes then were does it all end?:beatnik:

Maybe not moose- maybe reindeer or something similar.

They are Mongolians (Mongoloid) - Eskimos and North American Indians are offshoots and are similar since their ancestors came across the Siberian land bridge to the Americas.
