The reasoning behind this is simple, before I released this script a few beta tests were carried out. We had every faction controlled by a player. Every one of the beta tests collapsed. The more players you have, the longer you must wait between turns, the slower the game runs etc.

We currently have the following players:

Britannia
Germania
Gaul
Macedon
Spain
Carthage
Greek Cities
Egypt
The House of Julii
The House of Scipii
Pontus
Seleucia
Parthia

This is more than enough, in fact I fear it may be too much. I hope you understand this move.

it is House of Brutii... not the Scipii...

Myradraal.... would you like to start the campaign off by taking RickFGS's go to start off the campaign?

We still havn't decided on difficulty level etc

I'd like normal battles and hard or very hard campaign.

H/H or VH/VH

We will be playing normal battles - this should always be the case in all multiplayer campaigns. Auto resolve uses the battle difficulty, unless normal is used an unfair advantage will always be given to the defender.

I suggest normal battles, VH campaign.

I'd agree if we where playing the battles, but with auto resolve the battle thing will just get screwy. Normal just means nobody gets any morale/attack/defense bonuses, its the fairest setting.

Edit: thanks Myrdraal, I agree.

I would like Very hard battles and very hard campaign, other settings are pure joke, on less then very hard, battles just suck.

Rick, since most battles will be auto - resolved, playing on Very hard battles will give a HUGE dissadvantage to the attacker. It cannot work that way.

Playing on normal will give advantages to your troops, since they are all inferior, you will have a sweet way to expand in the begginning, also, your chariots are bugged in auto battles, as they tend to overperform, while in a manual battle they wouldnt do that much.
