Italian Firegalley in early

[andrewt]

I'm playing Byzantines and I saw that the Italians had a firegalley around the year 1111. This was after the patch. I can't build any even though I already had dockyards because they are supposed to be high period units. Has any experienced something similar? I haven't played the game in 2 months but IIRC, the Italians don't start with one.

itallians rule the seas early, can be frustrating if you are trying to start your trade empire

If you can just gang up on them with a bunch of ships. They might get them early but the ai has no clue on how to use its navy with effect.

I'm not really at war with them currently. I'm just curious how they got a ship in early period that shouldn't be available until high period since the Byzantines and Italians have a similar tech-tree with regards to ships.

I believe this was fixed in the patch, at least in my latest game it was. I am playing italian early and I dont have a fire galley like I used to before the patch, so that would indicate to me that it was fixed.

No code is perfect , perhaps the game just "hiccuped" {you know ; the game goes "hiccup" and out pops a Firegalley in Early Period} . Is you game modded ? Weird things can happen when you mod .
