Back again playing Europa after a long break for sanities sack. Though the game RTW is as daft as a kangaroo I have updated and having a ball playing at medium strategy and hard tactical, keep up the good work looking forward to the future.
Well done.

Re: Well done.
Yes, it's as different as night and day, isn't it? You might want to try VH campaign/ M battles next time round - I think EB was designed for that difficulty setting.
Re: Well done.
True but the problem i have with VH campaign difficulty is the stupidity of naval battles. That and the endless streams of AI stacks comprised of akontistai.
When playing VH/M i have literally had 1 enemy trireme with no experience but just a weapon upgrade, defeat 5 of my triremes all with experience... For this reason i play on hard, at least it gives me a chance in naval battles.
And by god, the enemy armies on VH are endless... Endless stacks with maybe 2 decent units and the rest cheap skirmish units. I can't be doing with it.
Re: Well done.
That was a problem with 1.0, but I think they stopped VH campaign affecting naval battles by 1.2. I've not noticed it as a problem with EB and RTR Gold, and I've played them a fair bit.Originally Posted by Dayve
The main problem I have with VH campaigns in EB is that the large stacks can lead to depopulated AI settlements.
Re: Well done.
I think the EBBS had an "AI re-population" section in it, where cities that train troops get population re-added to them. However, I think the numbers were designed for Large unit scale, so it wouldn't be as effective for Huge unit scale users.
I may have also imagined it
Re: Well done.
Indeed...as i play always on Huge Scale...most of Ai settlements are on the lowest level of population (<500), especially when they are near the frontiers or when the ai-faction has a longtime war to fight.
it would be nice, if this system of re-adding population would be adjusted for huge scale.
another annoying thing due to the low population is, that if i capture these settlements, they got a awesome boost in pop-growing-rate (6-9% / turn !).
i think this is caused by the partially advanced infrastructure of a once big city, which population is now depleted.
the population grows faster than i can build my factions buildings to keep them calm.

Re: Well done.
Europa Barbarorum has been specifically designed by our team to be played at Medium/Medium.
I cannot tell you the hours that have been spent trying to refine the stats. These guys have really been working their coccyxes off.
