Tired of ads?

Here is the current playlist:

Denmark: yop73

Ottoman Empire: jim panse

Austria: conmcb25

France: Galvatron

Spain: El Awrence

England: Darius

Sweden: FiGu

Yop starts us out!

And I believe everyone has the information on how to get the file.

Remember this is a playtest! There could be problems and possibly restarts. Share any comments, suggestions here as you play along.

Very strange, the scenario is working fine for me (and the old version still works fine in the other playtest).

What did you do to the events to get them to work?


Would you like to take an ingame screenshot for me (showing which terrains work and which ones doesnt as well as forts, etc)?

The files that seem to be malfunctioning (graphic files) are strangely enough the ones I have not changed from the old veriso and thus they shouldnt affect things.

Strangely enough I get entirely different error messages from Yop and steve.

Yop has trouble with the events and the graphics.
Steve cannot load the scenario at all if I understand his email correctly.
Galvatron is having no problems at all
Maybe the zip you two (Steve and Yop) downloaded got corrupted?

About the events: I forgot to copy the rules file into the folder, and after I did that, the events file worked.

The problem with the graphics doesn't have however nothing to do with that.

Which Rules?

Isnt the downloaded scenario complete?

Mine seems to be.

I got rules, pedia, events, games.txt files, etc all in the scenario folder.

And after downloading it again it seems to work graphics and all.

So I dont know what you are doing yop you will have to ask Henrik. But I do know all the scenario files have to be in one folder under the scenario directory in Civ II.

Atleast it appears things work fine now, which would suggest there wasn't anything wrong with my files

Oh and I suggest playing at the king rather than the prince level with this scenario, should work fine anyway as I have optimized it for pbems

* Henrik makes a note to add this to the readme and labels/game.txt files.

Yes I have, I even know the author of Carolus Invictissimus.
As the scenarios start at the same point the political situation *should* be about the same
The scenario theme, map, length, graphics and tech tree are totaly different tough

Tired of ads?

First impressions:

Church and Cathedral: Why is the 'church' more pacifying than the cathedral?

Several cities in Spain couldn't support a lot of units

The correct spelling for peasent is peasant. I also think the correct spelling for arquebuiser is harquebusier or arquebusier.

Of the trade divisions, call 'Other' something like Tithes or similar... Piety or something.

the mints you mentioned (Reichstaller) would be better spelled "Reichsthaler". (iīm austrian, my motherlanguague is german)

just for accuracy it would be better i suggest.

Danish troops take up positions near Lubeck. They will try to conquer the city.

Demark proposes a peace-treaty with the Swedes. No demands, no payments, no nothing, just peace.

REMARKS:
Henrik: your placement of the cities in the Low Countries is not really realistic. Antwerp should really border the sea (as it does in real life) and it also should have the center of trade. (it was the most important harbor in the entire region at that time).
I would advise you to remove Ostend, and to place Antwerp at that location and to move Brussels one square to the northeast.

NOTE:
The PBEM is started on King level. (Henrik said the scen was optimised for that) I hope noone disagees.

Antwerp could possibly have been placed on the forest to the north west of where it is now (you're right it should have a port or atleast be on a river ;-o), to place it where Ostende is would be too far west ihmo.
I didn't make it a Centre of Trade to avoid having too many in the Spanish Netherlands (ie gameplay reasons) but that may change in future versions as it certainly qualifies for one (for now I suggest you just play on though)...

Oh and I'd be carefull about attacking the HRE, as the readme states war will automatically be declared on Austria should you take any cities that are part of the Holy Roman Empire...
(Then again one can allways make a non-agression agreement with Austria before attacking )
