Re: Multiplayer Question

Question is will he get the option to play another AI country? He would like to continue on in our match. On technical side: if he will be eliminated he can stay in the game and hope to be Rebirthes via rebellion, Free Region decision or invasion mechanic if his nation barbarian related. Change Fac...

Multiplayer Question

Hi. I am in a 3 way MP match and one of the players may soon be eliminated. Question is will he get the option to play another AI country? He would like to continue on in our match.

Re: Ptolemaic Egypt oddity

Thats a funny scrnario. I believe you gave away Rhodus your Client State status by proposing that they will become Protector in return. In other words you agreed in being their Client State for free. BUT in your case thats not bad at all. First of all wars and established treaties ended. Thats enco...

Ptolemaic Egypt oddity

Hi. Involved in a MP match. Antigonids are AI as all my other neighbors are. When pulling turn 9 see my whole kingdom is stripped. Earlier I had marched in and defeated the Antigonids and took Jerusalem. This turn Nabatene Client State status ended. Last turn I tried to make peace with Macedonia at ...

Re: HUGE Commerce-bonus (nation-wide)?

Everything, but not that. Each greek Nation now needs as many stoas as it can get. Thanks to the many updates and patches (which create more problems for each other), owning is now a matter of survival in the late game. The AI is not able to take advantage of the bonuses of the Stoa, so you don't h...

Re: Field of Glory-Empires planned series on YT

Thanks. Yeah YT censor bots have been out of control lately. I'm coping and pasting this in a doc I have with a lot of other information provided from you. When you have time take a look at mods sub forum. Many players miss the pristine experience provided for free. Global conversion mods flashing ...

Re: Orange number meaning

Ah thank-you for confirming what I just figured out yesterday. All the tool tips are golden here and I found to have gotten more answers with them then with the manual. Again big thanks. Manpower and Metal cap should be raised by your Military Expertise AFAIK, but its rarely relevant in single play...

Re: Orange number meaning

These are the maximum quantities of the given resources your nation can shoulder in its current state; if you hover over them, the tooltip will tell you that above such numbers, "one fourth of the extra will be lost each turn". :) Ah thank-you for confirming what I just figured out yester...

As of the time of this post I already have 20 episodes with an average of 5 turns (years) per episode. I plan to (if I survive haha) play out the entire campaign of 500 turns. I am learning as I go ...

Hi was curious what the orange numbers mean circled in the image.
I have frequently seen those with Metals. Now I have one with Manpower.

Read through the manual and looked in game at the tooltips.
Any answers would be welcome. :)

Posting Screenshot Question

Hi just was wondering if there is a minimum amount of posts over here in the Slitherine Forums that I need to post before I am allowed to post screenshots. I have had been posting screenshots for years over on the Matrix forums for AARs or highlighting a question about a game mechanic. Edit seems I ...
