Fatal Years for 1.03 RUS

ROP modding will be quicker than RUS, AACW too BTW, as maps are smaller and my AI doctrine pretty much in its final form. I need yet to think about AI behaviour during winter mainly, and I'm waiting commments on the last version to verify if last changes are right. Of course, I don't forget AI in ROP must have a different winter behaviour than in RUS, but I know how to [:)]

This is great! I look forward to it.

Bear in mind: My ROP Weathers Mod

http://www.ageod-forum.com/showthread.php?p=213782#post213782

will be incorporated into the next official ROP patch (due out soon). Winter weather will be much more sensible, and not so variable as before. Maybe it will be easier to program the winter AI as a result.

(Oh, and I've been asked to redo the NCP weather, too. [:)])

Tried the ROP mod the other day, good to see it on high ground first. Could you redo RUS weather? I miss blizzards which I noticed with version 1.0 of RUS. They seem, in my opinion, to be less now.

I bought PON for 10 euros(!) at Gamersgate yesterday. I don't actually have time to play it, but I can always fantasize playing Russia. [:D]

Likewise, although I purchased a few weeks after release. Dont have the time to learn all the rules, busy with RUS and ROP presently. Will leave PoN until further patches and I find the inclination to play a 1600+ turn game. Phew...

Oh, I've no clue, info or anything tangible, but I wouldn't be so surprised if PON is the last AGE game.

Well maybe Age 4.0?

Whatever the reasons, the current reductions on PON price, both on Steam and Gamersgate, are unususal for a recent game. I've yet to see a best seller to be sold at reduced price less than two months from the initial release. And yet the starting 20$ price wasn't as high [:)]. Imho, that could be a very very sad sign PON is a business failure and Paradox has chosen a desperate solution to enlarge the audience at any cost, hoping the official patch will solve the trouble...Or at least a next game based on AGE 3.0 could be a success thanks to the enlarged audience brought by a sold out PON...Of course, once again, I've no clue, info,, and I'm certainly wrong by drawing hazardous hypothesis. Certainly.

It seemed always to be on gamersgates recently sold list, but now that has been changed with a redesign of their website so you cant see what they have just sold. Seemed prominent for the first few weeks, although it was being sold at £15.99 really cheap for a new release.

It just seemed too ambitious project for them or at least it appeared that way to me. 1600 turns? I mean...it was a grandiose a title as Grigsbys War in the Pacific. Massive monster game...

By cursing the forums, they should have debbugged the events for the 1850-1870 period. Beyond, as no players has played really past 1870, I suppose much remains to be done.

Maybe you're right. But I feel such a game to be commercially succesful needs more than a few weeks to be a success. Once again I'm certainly wrong.Read this though

Yes, I read this. I would like a new NCP, with the added economic and diplomatic aspects taken from RUS and PON, similar to Empires in Arms. Now that would be interesting. A few more scenarios for RUS would be good too, but I do not hold my breath.

Age 4.0 I hope for, maybe a redesigned engine more capable of better economic aspects amongst other things.

As I interpret this, Paradox will decide to release or not the next AGE project after evaluation. If I'm not wrong, that could be a very bad news.

Thats sad news if you are correct

Back on the topic.

I have RUS, yes. But I couldn't give remaking the RUS weather a high near-term priority. (And not that I've been asked officially to do so.) Maybe by later in September? I need to finish the ROP, WIA, and then NCP weather remakes first.

(An ACW weather remake will come sooner or later, again official or not; but it too is not high priority for now. PON? Oh, my! What a huge job remaking the PON weather would be!! Assuming it needs remaking, but I couldn't comment at all on that.)

So, yes about the RUS weather remake. But later rather than sooner.

I've done the AI files for ROP 1.03 too [;)] But it was a very prelimibnary work, especially for Prussian AI. When AACW mod will be done, I could possibly enhance ROP AI too with all the features I've learnt with Fatal Years. [:)]

What would really be cool is if you could revamp the ROP AI first, before AACW, so it could be incorporated into the official ROP release, due out fairly soon (from what I've heard).

If you haven't burned all your bridges... [8|]

[Nikel]

Not only all the bridges, apparently also the ships [:(]

Something could have changed since in my new game it's late Dec '18 and there's blizzard almost everywhere.

I'm under impression the 1.02b has some problem with very low numbers in die rolls. Blizzard being AFIK tied with such numbers, it could maybe be the cause.
