No... weird

[YanTraken]

Yeap!Preparing assault I brought 4 cannons from scandinavia.Just how suprised I was when they were not needed.

Edit----------------------------------------------------
-I play the Danes.Why I can`t move my armies back to Sweden from Finland?I can do it in opposite direction.My 6 ships are at the baltic sea,and there is no enemy fleet.
-During the game the time comes when I can`t click on computer pieces to check their number,even when I have spies in their province.
-Why my spies are not informing me about planned enemy attacks?I had them on Turkish territory,but they didn`t gave me any infos.
-proposition-->Ceg.mabe You could do something to designate a time between signed ceasefire and another war with the same country.When I sign peace with Russia(for example) we can`t start another war witch each other till let`s say 4/5 turns.
Making some panel to chose the peacetime period would be great but it can`t be done I think.

Don`t get me wrong Ceg.I`m NOT complaining ,I only inform about bugs.;)

----> do you have a port in Finland ? Do you have fleet in ALL areas between ?

-During the game the time comes when I can`t click on computer pieces to check their number,even when I have spies in their province.

------> Have no idea.

I know.

-I have noticed that regimental cannons after pressing "halt" (to stop their fire) moment later resume bombardment.Is there any other way to stop their fire(besides walking them all the time;)
-idea!When country is vanquished his navy is still on the sea.I propose to changing such a fleet into pirates/bandits/rebels,whatever.Thanks to that many "sea"countries will feel that something bad happened:)by fighting occured pirates.

It is often happening, although the fleet amassess somewhere else usually.

Off Topic:
Does the Finland is a Scandinavian country?
In Polish TV program "You can like Europe;)" nice fellow from Finland said that they are not Scandinavians,because they come from Kaukaz-Ural region!
I was shocked honestly....

[cegorach]

At least when it comes to their origin and language they are cousins of Hungarians and Estonians if I am correct, so it is rather a matter of personal approach.

Check your mailbox I have express proposal.

[Kepuli]

Hmmm.. Yes, our language belongs to Ugric-language family, which includes Hungary and Estonia, or Eesti..In Russia still lives few native groups, whose language belongs to same language family. Shame for me, but i don´t know where the proto-finns came here, most likely from east, but I think we would rather think ourselves scandinavians..

Yea, I think that thing, which revents you helping your allies is sad weakness in engine..

Hi Ceg, and everyone,

I've been playing 1.5 - playing far too much. I started with the Early campaign, which looked great, but sometimes got "culture ID" errors with a number like "16" or something and some CTDs which might have been connected to those error messages, so I switched to the middle campaign and completed an entire (well, 60% of lands) victory as the English. Loved it - with a couple of comments:

1) Do AI nations only use "War Contribution" for a couple of years just like you tell us human players? I noticed sometimes after taking a territory that an AI player had already established it. If the AI isn't controlled perhaps you should consider scrapping this feature, IMHO.

2) I liked the Med being made effectively separate, but as the English I couldn't even later build ships in the Med, so could only get islands by bribing (yet one or two Turk ships came out to the North Sea!). It would be nice to be able to build ships in the Med if poss......

I went on to play the late campaign which also looked great! But it keeps CTD-ing in 1687 for some reason I can't even begin to guess.

That's all, back to the game........

[cegorach]

-----------> Hmmm you are first person to report those error messages, I will check if possible.



1) Do AI nations only use "War Contribution" for a couple of years just like you tell us human players? I noticed sometimes after taking a territory that an AI player had already established it. If the AI isn't controlled perhaps you should consider scrapping this feature, IMHO.

--------> AI doesn't remove it, but I don't mind it because this way it gets large amount of cash quickly, besides the building causes much unhappiness so it should use more soldiers to garrison provinces with it making them harder to conquer. AI can use it and it shouldn't cause any troubles because the engine doesn't allow these. HUMAN player however should scap it becuase he doesn't know the hardcoded limits as the AI and of course knows that the structure is temporary only.
Still if AI uses contribution so much opressing its people you can consider extermination of this faction fully justified...



2) I liked the Med being made effectively separate, but as the English I couldn't even later build ships in the Med, so could only get islands by bribing (yet one or two Turk ships came out to the North Sea!). It would be nice to be able to build ships in the Med if poss......

--------> Corsair Ships are not limited to bigger seas so they could be build in Mid. Ottomans produced galleys in Baltic I guess. Some countries do not have access to galleys, however, I think I will allo them for everyone in the patch no matter if the faction really used these historically.


I went on to play the late campaign which also looked great! But it keeps CTD-ing in 1687 for some reason I can't even begin to guess.

--------> Unusual, but more testing might reveal the problem.

That's all, back to the game........

Glad you like it, you will like it even more with new features I am preparing.

I doubt it, they are Lithuanians our junior brothers in the 1385 Union after all

[beauchamp]

I will be in Austria this summer during the cup, and looking to see if I can bring one of those Hussar shirts back to the states. Although, not many people will understand what it is

[YanTraken]

We are doomed!1:0;(...but Lithuanians also had Hussars in the past ,so the chances were equal:D
Next propositions:
-living destroyed war wagons on the battlefield (they are not disappearing)
-crews on those wagons are not taking fireing positions:(

[hlawrenc]

Playing my first Late (Sun King Ambition) game as Spanish have two questions:

1st took Morrocco and garrisoned with small force had rebellion that consisted of Imans and Ambassadors! Then CTD. Anyone else had rebellions appear made up of strategic agents and any way to prevent getting strat Agents as rebelling force? Obviously they can't fight so CTD.

2nd - Maybe I am missing something but I have been trying to build to Line Infantry with Spanish. According to the building information I need Master Gunsmith and Master Swordsmith in addition to Modern Army and Town Militia/guard. I have Modern Army and appropriate militia as well as Gunsmith Guild and Swordsmith Guild. Have built a citadel in Leon but can't get mastergunsmith building to come up as possible build. What additional buildings must I build (as prerequisite) before getting mastergunsmith building?

Lots of fun! Love the money that flows in with Spanish. Have played them extensively in high (Religious Turmoil) and found nothing upsetting in any of it.

But I really want to field some line infantry to see how they work before time runs out!

Thanks

[hlawrenc]

About these strange rebellions I will correct it for the small patch, soon - most likely there is one missing range or rebels so noone is covering those provinces, I will check.

Regards Cegorach

Well if I had gone back and done some homework would have gotten the answer to my weird rebellion problem (stack of rebels all ambassadors and Imans) guess just try to keep the populations happy till the patch comes out.

Does this seem to be only with Muslim related territories? Have been playing a lot of European factions and not seen this there.

Still would appreciate any build information on trying to get to Line Infantry with Spanish. What pre requisites for building do I need in order to be able to build Master gunsmith in late for Spanish? I have built citadels and gunsmith guild but can't seem to get the Mast Gunsmith building to pop up in my build panel so I can create line infantry. Must be missing some other pre requisite build.

[cegorach]

A new thing for the patch



It is called fortified position.

Another well-wisher with congratulations for P&M 1.5!

It's been a long time since I played MTW, but I've gotten back into it again thanks to P&M, I've been playing it for the last 2 weeks and really enjoyed it. The new unit graphics are excellent, and the expansion of the buildings and campaign system does some things I wouldn't have believed were possible.

So far I've played campaigns as the Livionians, Ottomans, Ireland and Venice and I've enjoyed it very much. Keep up the good work.

Antagonist

P.S Is there any word on a patch to make the ECW campaign available? I was looking forward to that too.

[cegorach]

It will be released soon - I need more MP battles and reports about bugs - I am going to add MP pack as well in the incoming patch.

[The_Doctor]

I have an odd problem as the Russians. The shields that are normally on the stacks are floating off to the left of it and I cannot select them.

Off Topic:

This will be strange.

@Polish people, Have you see a chocolate bar called a lion bar? It is made by Nestle.

There is a shop near my college that sells cheap stuff, mainly from other countries. One of these items are Lion bars covered in Polish words. Two of my friends tried to read what it said on the side of it. Though they probably where saying it wrong, they started shouting the phrase at each other.

Using the internet I worked out that the first 2 words mean something like "Do you like/love". The last word is something like "odwazizys", I have no idea how to spell it.

So:
A) Have you seen this type of chocolate bar?
B) What is "Do you like" in Polish?
C) What does "odwazizys(or however it is spelt)" mean?

Thanks.

[YanTraken]

heh....
A)Yes,We have seen this chocolate bar.It`s in every shop.
B)Do You like-->"Czy lubisz ?"
C)"Odwarzysz"-it means "dare".For example "How dare You ?!?"
BTW-how did You know that those were Polish words on the packing?

A) Yes.
B) I am not sure about the bar, but is might be 'Czy to lubisz ?' [ chy to lubishh
C) most likely it is 'odwazysz' which is a form of the verb 'to be brave'.
I can only guess, but it could be a part of sentence 'Czy sie odwazysz ?' [ Chy siiee odvazhyshh] - 'Are you brave enough ?'

MY pronounciation thing might be inaccurate for you, but it is better than worse things e.g. Grzegorz Brzeczyszczykiewicz - and this is just a name...

[The_Doctor]

'Czy sie odwazysz ?' [ Chy siiee odvazhyshh] - 'Are you brave enough ?'

That is it extactly.

BTW-how did You know that those were Polish words on the packing?

It said "Polska" on the address.

Thanks for your help.

Wow, fortified positions!

I want to play this nooow! (Slow computer )

[Rick]

In case this hasn't been mentioned before, When playing the French in the Louis XIV - Expansion of the Sun King scenario I got to the point where I was building Musquetaires of the Guard.

However, when I wanted to join in battle and clicked "command the army personally" the game would not permit the loading of this unit. An error message was sent during the loading process, afterwhich the game would return to the strategic map. No crashes or anyting, just that one little bug.

When I took the unit out of the army it would load and let me conduct the battle normally.

So far, this is only unit I've found that does this.

[beauchamp]

Hey Ceg, im playin as the Barbays and wonderin where you got your information/ what books? I posted a similar topic in the Mali/Songhay thread, but maybe you didn't see it.

Just a suggestion, maybe Sahara should be conquerable and have Tibuktu or Gao as a city. The moroccan army in 1600's conquered Timbuktu with their raiders and with the help from angry tuaregs, It might be cool to include.

Regardless, An Uber Toll mod!
