    In Kingdoms I think the system works quite well, and is probably/possibly worth it in EB.. but then again - the script would be fiendishly complex to make sure the circumstances were good enough. Maybe just for the AI, it's a good idea.

    There is no possible way its going to happen in EBII. I'm going to go add this to the FAQ, if it hasn't already been done.

    If people want scripted invasions, then they'll just have to mod it in themselves. I believe QuintusSertorus tried to mod in the Hannibal invasion for EB1. Not sure if it's workable though.

    Talk to Bryhnt, IIRC he's scripted in a load of stuff on his install...

    This issue is as stupid as Paradox's famous EU 2 Scripted (Historical) "Gold Inflation" and "Bankrupcy" events for Spain, which the both fired at given dates, regardless of cause-effect: former fired even if the Spanish didn't start the american colonization (No Incas/Aztecs = No Gold), and the latter fired even if Spain was the most prosperous and wealthy nation in the world.
    BLARGH!

    Remember, in Kingdoms all the "heroes" and stuff were already there when the campaign started or latered entered after events that occured outside of the map. EB already has loads of starting historical characters (think Pyrrhus, Ptolemaios, Scipio Asina, etc.) and we don´t know the names of any Yuhezi generals, so... nope.

    I don't come here a lot any more. You know why? Because you suck. That's right, I'm talking to you. Your annoying attitude, bad grammar, illogical arguments, false beliefs and pathetic attempts at humour have driven me and many other nice people from this forum. You should feel ashamed. Report here at once to recieve your punishment. Scumbag.
