ALEXANDER EB

Hmmm, I was wondering, one of the only challenge when playing sweboz is their very VERY crappy economy... but with the EAEM we start with a flooding treasury of 100000... isn't that taking off much of teh challenge offered by that faction?

I was just wondering...

100000 is not much in EAEM...Why ?? Let me give you my example....I started a campaign as Macedon (and i had the same amount) but a huge stacks of armies and Huge cities with lots of squalor...(If you develop a huge city on your own it takes time but it becomes your chief earning city...and if given at start it does the opposite..)....so you can imagine what happened in next two turns !!! I got bankrupt....And now, i have conquered the whole of Greece but still I have to be very careful with my treasury....I hope Maksimus fixes this issue in his next edition of EB....It was easier that way in original EB....

you mean fix squalor?

you mean fix squalor?

Maybe, that can be the solution to the financial issues....Try making the squalor a little less harsh on the player....But I've only played as Macedon so i don't know about other factions (but i guess factions like Rome, Epiros and other non barbarian factions would be having same issues)....

Hello,

I have one silly question. I have done exactly as written in instructions and I run the alex.exe (engine only, no EAEM), yet the game behaves like RTW EB - vanilla AI, no night battles etc. When I played Roma Surrectum II on alex.exe, the AI was comparatively different, so its not just my feeling I guess.
So, is this an issue, or should i keep trying to "reinstall"?

in RS the mod's have been testing the engine after I implemented it for EB and then they kept tweaking moded files to get a better result, also, there, script is not 'directing' the game in RTW.exe way, so the engine has more space to act etc. In EAEM i managed to get somwhere with AI but never enough XD

Hi people, I installed the engine only on my EB1.2 and i can't start a new campaign. When i click on the button it shows something like"YOU MUST SELECT A ITEM FROM THE LIST". I didn't change my EB Single Player link, the game started anyway (with the alexander little logo on the bottom at the startup loading screen) and the Night Battle feature working even with my previous BI saves.

The reason why i didn't change link is because simply ..I cant' !!
The original one was :
DESTINATION: D:\Programmi\EBTrivialScript\EBTrivialScript.exe -s ebconfig.xml -runeb -type "Single Player"
FROM: "D:\Programmi\Activision\Rome - Total War"

and if i try to follow instruction: <drive letter>:\<directory path you've installed RTW into>\RomeTW-ALX.exe" -mod:eb -show_err -nm -noalexander

i get destination not valid cause of the space after the word ROME. I know that it might looks stupid but i can't change that link, but most important, is that the real reason why i can't start a new campaign?
