    Default A mix of impressions, recommendations and questions..

    Well, after a few tries i finally got a campaign going with Getai. While i played the game i decided it to write notes about my game, so i can write them here later.

    My first note was... Descriptions, no, i know there are tons of missing... but i´m thinking of longer descriptions...I think it would be better to get a shorter descriptions instead of those LONG descriptions were you explain what things do what..., i mean on the Generals traits... and on some units as well. Occasional gamers don`t want to read the whole descriptions, even more when u already readed and you just want to know what ratings affect those traits...

    Also i notce the Financial summary to be unaccuarate on the first turn.. i don´t know if this is a known bugg or what is wrong, just though i should share.

    The other thing i noticed, maybe someone can explain me this... Roads, when i build roads on the summary, it didn´t show any changed.. no more income or any thing...

    After playing several turns.. i went to the scrolling... and i saw i was the worst faction off all... now, my question is.. i was doing that bad or the game is designated for the human player to be A LOT harder?. I remember passing threw aeudi, and i saw a full stack army garrison a province

    This is a Petition!! Pls, speed up the gamespeed between turns... it took for ever...

    And my last note/question... How the #@#@ recruitments works? I conquer a province... and i was able to recruit some units... it didn´t let me since i didn´t have enouh populations... anyways after a while i decided it to try those buildings... the one who said something about "free Tribe" and after that... those recruitment options were gone... and to build a Meeting Hall, i had to spend 16.000 on 20 turns... I know you guys want to slow down the game, but this is not too much?

    Thanks and sorry for the bad flow of the post.. this were just notes i wrote while playing.

    Thre is always short description of unit befor the long part. If you dont want to read hisoric info, just read firs short part.
    And traits, i dont know what you mean. They are short.

    lso i notce the Financial summary to be unaccuarate on the first turn..
    Already fixed.

    Roads, when i build roads on the summary, it didn´t show any changed.. no more income or any thing...
    From what i understand roads gives trade income only when you have road conection to city with witch you trade.

    i was doing that bad or the game is designated for the human player to be A LOT harder?
    The game is designed to be much harder then vanilla.
    Choose lower difficulty level if you cant cope with increased difficulty.

    This is a Petition!! Pls, speed up the gamespeed between turns... it took for ever...
    If it will be possible then it will be done.

    I conquer a province... and i was able to recruit some units..
    This is a bug, afther conquering a province you shouldnt be able to recruit units untill you build one of goverments buildings. Will be fixed.

    How the #@#@ recruitments works?
    To build any unit you have to have goverment building in place.
    What units you can build is based on what goverment you choosed.

    This is basic rule (to the left mostly local units, to the right mostly faction units)
    (Local units) Type4<->Type3<->Type2<->Type1 (Faction units)

    Exactly what units you can build depends on:
    1)Province
    2)Gov Building
    3)MIC level

    and to build a Meeting Hall, i had to spend 16.000 on 20 turns... I know you guys want to slow down the game, but this is not too much?
    No its not.

    Someone said if you gut the descriptions that are really long, the game loads and runs faster...

    Only campagne descriptions. They will be shorter in next patch to cut game loading times.
