    Re: Useless and useful buildings

    A few of the guilds are not that good; I find the Horsebreeder guild to be unnecessary. Not sure what Masons does. Explorers gives a few good ancillaries, I've heard people say units recruited in...

  3. Re: Infamous Naval Bug - Is there a fix 10+ years after?

    I don't think any fix was ever found. The AI is almost impossible to mod in this game from what I have heard.

    After I took Silves as Portugal on turn 3 I got a cool general. (I wish I could marry him into my family.) However, he spawns with 2 units of Spearmen that are Silver Surfers, which Portugal does not...

    Re: Is this a bug or a feature?

    This is actually quite interesting. I have never heard of that happening before.

    How did you do it? I would find it great to do with spies, especially to spread the black death to an enemy army.

    Re: PRINCESSES in the SSHIP

    I think the problem is more with no going back level than AntiTraits, from my experience. When I mod my vanilla game to remove all No Going Back levels it seems to work best.

  11. [Tutorial] Re: Why Avoid Using papal_states?

    Interesting thread. I think TATW just made the 'Pope' unplayable because of the Ring script. Also they were not short on faction slots so they decided to play it safe, I guess.

  22. Re: Give a reason why you prefer Rome I over Rome II

    I never played Rome 2, but from what I have seen the army system is inferior. In Rome 1 you build the units from cities (or hire them as mercenaries) then you merge them together to form armies. You...

    1560. About the same as regular Stainless Steel, although it is twice as many turns. I bet almost no one plays a campaign that long.
