[edit:]

I lie. -2 is actually 2 monts per turn. 6 months per turn should indeed be -6. Check that you have activated scenario mode (under the editor menu).

I would like to give it a playtest...

May I humbly suggest that you keep the cities to one style?

Rome, Genoa, etc - look a bit out of place...

Ok, I sorted out the year problem. It wasn't becasue of the scenario flag activated, that is activated as soon as you open the cheat menu. It was simply because I looked it in *.sav format, and apparently that only accepts one month per turn, nomatter high the negative turn increment number is...

But what annoys me the most right now is why all the European cities suddenly became walled, at least by judgning from the graphics in game, but most of them are in reality not walled Can anyone open the sav and check that out for me?

@Curt:
I'll see what can be done

Do you have the Great Wall wonder somewhere? If you did, that would "wall" up cities without any of them having actual city walls.

That's because when you saved the file you've been working with, you did so as a .sav, and then you loaded the sav file. When you do that, the 'Activate Scenario mode' is gets disabled (yet any changes made remain). That's why any changes you made didn't effect the game.

Look at this: I loaded the 'tutorial' sav that comes with Chiv2, cheated in some units and changed the turn interval, then saved it (as a sav again). It never saw .scn format.

In the last minute I added a new wonder. What I didn't do was to remove the tech that it prerequed from civs that already had that tech, as this was a civ specific wonder later down the tech tree. Anyway, this *.scn sorts this bug out..

Yeah, sorry about the lack of action on the report, but I have been a busy booger at university lately -
That and a plethora of other conflicting priorities...

But you have my solemn promise of a decent report this saturday!

I have played the scenario a bit and I am impressed at what I have seen so far.
The mix of graphics (especially the wigged people) are simply super.

It would be great it you could help me with that

But, if you have some rennaisance cities laying around, I wouldn't throw them away

@Saarstock:
About those icons, d'you have any original ones? You do own a copy, right? If not, just download it in my CDG forum.

	Beta v.6 Inflate your Upload Space

Ah, what the hell, I need all the playtesters I can get, so I'll just post it here for everyone to test. But please, only download if you intend to help me find bugs and give me tips to improve the scen

So come on Scenario League, mobilize your forces!

COLONIALISM - THE AGE OF DISCOVERY - BETA V.6

Here's the changes that's been made since beta v.1, many of them thanks to play tester comments:

Canges in beta patch 2
* Knights have 2 i firepower and 2 hitpoint. It costs 20 shields more.
* No war ships may transport units
* Ships with the trieme flag have a bigger chance of sinking if you take the chance to take them into open water.
* Dublin given a castle, Plymouth lost its fortifications
St. Die given fortification
* Gave the ottomans a couple of more units.
* English East India Company only buildable to the English.
* All the "senate"-messages are now in the Pope interfering

Canges in beta patch 3:
* Religions as governments removed. Now every European civ start off with Absolute Monarchy (Monarchy) and can reach the government Reformed Monarchy (Republic) later on.
* Removed Warehouses from all cities.
* Raised the cost of Warehouses and Arsenals.
* Some tinkering with labels, game and pedia
* Stcokades removed. Replaced with Line inf.
* Renamed Antwerp to Liege
* Alternate flags
* Changed knight graphic
* Zulu bug removed
* Renamed "suger" to "sugar"

Changes in beta patch 4:
* Now all cities not intended for razing have city walls.
* All European cities have a castle. Plus the European civ and the Ottmans have grown a bit stronger militarly.
* Less money per savage killed.
* Colonial Goods more expensive.

Changes in beta patch 5:

* Business School introduced (stock exchange)
* Scholars (library) renamed to Quadrivium.
* University renamed Trivium and placed in all European Human cities, and in selected AI cities.
* Print Shop renamed University. Universities placed in selected historical correct university cities, with some minor compromises to balance the game play. The human civs' tech advancement moved up a bit tot he university tech.
* All trade producing terrain produce one more trade arrow, plus the centre of trade terrain produce 5 more trade.
* Christian propaganda centre renamed to Patriarch.
* Renamed the terms for peace, cease fire and war. It's now peace=Absentia Belli, cease fire=Modus Vivendi and war=Casus Belli. All the latin meanings. Only changed for style reasons . You may also see the civ use for the word 'alliance' changed to 'royal marriage' sometimes.

Changes in beta v.6 (This one) :
* Moved barbarian units into modern units slots, toa void familiar barbarian problems. This will make the heathens "live" longer
* Cost of all units raised
* Cost of Arsenal, Iron foundry, Iron Works, Water Mill and Royal Mint raised

i would love to play it and heck i will...but i have to ask because the dutch only begin with 2 cities wont that put them on a TO big of a disadvantage?...as you see where i come from i would love to see that the dutch can get strong...

Well, it's the aweful truth that the Netherland isn't that big, and this is giga map. But the dutch cities are very fertile, and when they get the Merchant Shipping tech, things will steam up for sure. Then they get the cheap and fast moving unit 'Fleuyte'

Looking forward hearing from you
