Plague

[Celtic_Punk]

I've never seen the plague in EB... ever... ever ever ever... Was this feature removed? I sort of do miss using my spies for biological warfare :)

I had the plague in my casse campaign. I captured the southern irish town and it had the plague. i had to sit thier for like ten turns to get over the plague

Same here!
I have never run across it either. It's a shame.

I had it once that I remember. My spies decimated the population of Gaul and Germany.

Had it three times.
Once in my romani campaign. Massilia got the plague.
In my AS campaign I captured a saba settlement that was plagued careless error on my part for not looking.. reloaded because I wasn't going to have my whole army die off for no reason so far from any retraining.
In my current casse campaign I had a spy in italy and it was odd because he became plagued but wasn't in a town..

Plague seems so random in EB... I never encounter them when playing nomads, but yet, playing as "civilizatedly cleaner" Hellenes... I got them..... maybe the nomads didn't caught by plagues?

I think the idea is that plague is spread by seatrade, the most popular spots to get it seem to be trading hubs, Massalia, Syracuse etc. Nomads wouldn't have had much involvement in trading by sea so they are unlikely to be affected by plague.
