The thing is, the light_spear attribute lowers the defense skill vs infantry by -4, while improves the push effect as well as gives a +4 defensive bonus against cavalry. To make up for that, EB has added +4 to the attack of light_spear weapons.Originally Posted by TruePraetorian
Changing it is double edged though, it has its good side but also its bad. The good side is that they are correctly compensated when using the spear - the bad side is that they now gain that compensation when using their other weapon too, if they have one. However, since this makes battles last longer as well, I think it's worth it. You could also compromise and give a +2 spear attack and +2 defensive skill or something like that for those with two melee weapons (if their other weapon is a ranged one it doesn't really matter, since they won't be using it in melee anyway, and as you should know, skill doesn't count against ranged attacks). They could also be the exception and keep their +4 spear attack, or whatever. It's up to what you guys think. I'm fine with it changed or unchanged.

Alright good news and bad news.
Good new is MAA has released the new version of his City Mod! I nominate that as a definate to include in our PBeM.
Bad news is I don't know what theis wrong with my install. Installed v1.1 and had same problem as before. Then, I deleted the map.rwms. This time, I got a KTM. When I quit the game, it said "dah dah da de dah..cannot find arderine(?) in strings list" or something.
So, I am going to re-download it. Expect the minimod up by tomorrow
I guess the good thing is is that we still have plenty of slots open to new players.

Hmmm, sounds interesting. I'd like to take the Getai (would they do decent in autoresolved battles? whatever, still interested).
Ok got you.
Update:
Was re-downloading EBv1.1 last night. Left it alone. Came back a few hours later and my internet was only downloading at 20kbps. It was at 21%. To top that off, me trying to fix it crashed the internet, so I just left it alone since it was 2AM and I didn't feel like bothering with it.
Anyway, will be downloading for the better part of today.
If anyone has any reasoning for my bad luck, please share it. Also, if anyone can tell me why after I installed it it didnt work 3 times.

Just out of curiosity, how does a 'play by email' game work, especially with so many players? The premise of it sounds intriguing![]()
