[EB MP]3.0 Thread - Testing and Updates

[-Stormrage-]

The problem with Sweboz is that they have many cheap troops but few expensive ones to fill out the roster...

in that case, saba have many light troops but few armoured troops to fill the roster...

[gamegeek2]

That's true, also.

Saba armored troops are really nothing more than glorified javelin fodder.

[-Stormrage-]

they dont have armoured troops.

...so does anyone know why lower-stat Illyrians cost more than higher-stat Germans?

EDIT: Some people have been wondering what happens when, say, a 2000-2500 cost unit is given experience and goes into the >2500 cost range. Does this mean I may only bring 2 instead of 4 of this unit now? No. I have added the necessary line in the Rules page on EBO website.

Thanks for asking the question again for me, Vartan (and for answering the one about chevrons before I even got around to ask it :p).

While we're at it, I can also give a reminder that I have two questions in the other "errors in 3.0" thread awaiting answers. And here's another one: is it intentional that KH doesn't have access to regular toxotai? Neither I nor Kival could find them on the roster when we played as the KH earlier today.

When I commissioned gg2 to begin work on 3.0, I was firm in insisting that he use "vanilla" EB 1.2 MP EDU as a base. In other words, to start "from scratch." If you know your EB Online history well enough, you'll remember that our very first patch (I believe EBO MP EDU 1.1) was to add toxotai and various other Greek units that were oddly enough missing from the KH multiplayer roster. So to put it simply, this is a remnant from EB 1.2's MP EDU which contains this subtle lack of units on KH roster. I'll try to resurrect the short documentation for EBO MP EDU 1.1 and post it here so that gg2 and others may see the mistake. If the error is not what I've just describe, I'm truly sorry.
