How do you field 3 artillery pieces in a multiplayer game? Isn't oxcart retainer only for one artillery piece? Just played a game with a guy that had 3.

You sure it was 3 units?
As 1 unit contains 3 mongonels (if I'm not mistaken).

Its a wellknown bug/exploit. People can manage (I wont tell here how) to field more than the usual 1 artillery unit.
If you see that, screen it, upload it, report it and stop playing that guy. This would be one situation, where I would hit alt-f4 myself, I dont play cheater.

Hm... i thought it was only possible to field a second arty unit with this exploit.

It seems, that people can manage to get 4 artillery units that way.

Maybe he has enough money?

He could be a experienced player?

I'm sure he should have 2 art.not 3.Its like returning to the good ol days of MTW2.

Takeda, in order to field any artillery units you need to use the Ox Cart retainer and it specifically says you can only field 1 artillery unit. As Kocmoc says, there are ways around it for cheaters. I have seen more than 3 mangonels in one army + fire rockets so I know it can be done.

And I'm not capable of doing that.

I have experinced one on NTW.He was spanish,And he had ETW troops.they were lablled in the NTW name format.strange,

Played a game last night and saved a replay -- the guy had one unit of 3 mangonels and one unit of fire rockets. Thats not supposed to work, but it does.
