RE: GGWAW and GGWBTS. Mechanics

<t> Several years ago I was lucky enough to be part of developing both those games - the gameplay differs greatly. <br/> <br/> In WBTS you have lots and lots of units each of which matter less - while commanders and managing initiative is the name of the game. In WaW AWD you have fewer units and the...

RE: Jumping to Challenging Level

Initiative bonus is what makes the larger change for the north.
Supply bonus&nbsp;is what makes the larger change for the south.
Both imho.

RE: Empire in Arms 1.03.13 Public Beta Avalible!!

The AI has improved some - but still needs alot of work if its to become reasonable or even good. In particular Turkey and Russia seem fairly inactive. Its much better than before though :)

RE: Important notice - bug

<t> I am coding the fix atm.

RE: screen resolutions?

That is a clear mistake if you ask me. All new games should support higher resolutions by showing more of the map. 1024x768 makes grown men cry when viewed on newer monitors capeable of much more.

RE: the Nanny state

It is correct. The SLP (scouted level percentage) is applies to spotting such units.

RE: How is the Game?

<r> Try reading some or all the AAR. Better than the cluterring of posts about real and/or misunderstood problems they show how the game plays. Just remember that the game is still new so most posts will probably still have imperfect graps of the rules as well as the possibilities. I know I do despi...

RE: the Nanny state

<t> Lucky,<br/> <br/> WBTS takes only marginally longer to play then AWD in terms of PBEM. Each turn is about the same to play as a turn of AWD (assuming 2 players) and the number of turns isnt that much higher (25-28 for AWD and 48 for WBTS). The reaction movement you mention does _not_ mean an ext...

<t> Against the AI (on hard) I pull back a region from the very start defending in Gordonsville and Richmond. This shortens the line and provides some prime defensive terrain.

<t> tUnfortunately, it seems that the fix to the "Scouted Level Percetage" mentioned in the patch message is not working exactly the way it should be (which happens). In my PBEM game against WarHunter he brought up that it was odd that a large force of his was spotted when it should not be - which l...
