30 000 Marines?

[Willowran]

In my egyptian campaign, marines cost 30 000 to rectruit. Is that a glitch? seems a little much, for a 10, 10, 18 unit

[Hopit]

they are there so it doesn't crash when the settlement rebels

[Willowran]

ah. so youre never really intended to use em in a campaign... how does that work, just out of curiosity? adding a unit =difference between a ctd?

Since there are no peasants, the game needs some other unit it can spawn in case a settlemet without any military infrastructure rebels.

[Spike]

yeah, actually that mechanism is confusing when you have over 30000 cash in hands , it's much better to use levy troops recruitable, or make a specially coded peasant units that EB and RTR have

[Willowran]

aaaaah, makes sense.

that is now my goal. I will be super rich, and spam a million marines to take over the world.

[nein]

I always thought that this system looked messy, personally I would add a peasant unit

I already did that, it's fun. It's also fun to get super rich and then send tons of money to your allies every turn and watch them steamroll all of their opposition. But as fun as all of that is, I hope late game is made a little more challenging in 3.0. It's currently pretty easy to build a massive empire as any of the factions in a couple of turns except Taras because of their location.

[nein]

taras is one of the easiest factions if not the easiest

The game still crashes frequently when a settlement rebels, it's quite annoying.

[Blatta Optima Maxima]

It's a really outdated solution, yes. But it doesn't crash for me.
