Militia grade arms attack speed, attack, assault addition , defensive skills reduced, while slightly reducing the number of
Each grade arms recruitment and reduce maintenance costs , reduce senior arms have a greater magnitude , the purpose is to reduce the economic pressure
Among several new features on the details:
Economic System:
City Population:
Song Dynasty in ancient China is one of the highest rates of urbanization era , thousands of cities have a population of more than a lot of contemporary European cities even have five people on one of the best cities , the other original urban population , the representative of the fact that this Block population of the city near the area , so much more than the original urban population is expected ( in fact, this is not the main reason for this set ) , the upper limit of the urban population will be 1.2 million . Of course, the threshold will be very different upgrades , 80,000 population to be upgraded to cities , 200,000 to upgrade to a huge population of the city .
Another upgrade population threshold mentioned changes brought about is that most of the city is difficult to upgrade to a big city , almost impossible to upgrade to a giant city, mainly due to the size of the agricultural population level ( that is, the degree of local fertile land ) , agricultural facilities ( is farmland grade ) , taxes , health, and dirty affect some jumping addition there will be an increase in the building from the city of the start , so if not step into this threshold , it is difficult to raise upwards. Of course, one problem is caused by the population to improve health and plague, pestilence original frequency is negligible relative to history , in the new version of Shao inside, plague frequency will be higher than the original
So, if you want to get the big cities , you need the following key conditions conditions :
1 fertile land : the land is the most fertile areas of the Yangtze River , Dongting Lake, Poyang surrounding plains, the Chengdu Plain , near the plains of Shandong
2 good initial conditions : for example, there will be more than the city of Quanzhou and Guangzhou, the commercial port level , which for population growth there are no small help
3 low taxation : In the new setup, low taxes bring population growth will be considerable bonus
4 good medical facilities , there will be some health care began building from the big cities , of course, can not enter the cities do not want the threshold
(5) Other conditions such as the Governor's ability , entertainment and so on , have an impact on the population , but no major role in the first few
Income:
Song revenue is among the best in the ancient Chinese dynasties , including agricultural tax revenue , spawned tax, trade tax , certain items of income , such as Monopoly , the game 's performance is :
1 agricultural income would be the bulk of revenue , in ancient times, agriculture has always been the rulers of most concern , farming population has also been the most
2 . Spawned the bulk of tax revenue would be in addition to growth in the population , before the Song Dynasty inherited many exactions , the relative proportion of revenue is relatively high ( of course, only the ancient Chinese and contrast , in fact, India and Japan are much higher taxes ) in the game spawned all taxes included.
3 moderate proportion of trading revenues in the Song Dynasty in ancient China 's foreign trade is relatively developed, if trade circles built, but also a lot of trading income , the income of another businessman not included in the game , add up the total number must be a lot of.
4 salary increase dramatically the proportion of officials , Song has always been a redundant official redundant ills, officials not only quantity but wages are high, so a significant increase in the proportion of salary . But in the game temporarily unable to respond because of the civil service system , so the ratio is still low.
5 Finally, the cost of maintaining and corruption has a certain increase.
Income impact on the game:
Giant City metropolitan and economic class building addition will increase by leaps and bounds , so the city of income will be considerable, so the competition for major cities will be particularly important , according to plan, prepare later opened branches at all levels of maintenance fees the difference , lower arms and even maintenance and maintenance costs low , but the senior arms maintenance costs will be quite high , especially for a few sedentary people , especially in terms of song , so in order to maintain high-level arms will need to occupy as many large and giant city
For a country like the Western Xia , the land is relatively barren , basically only have a maximum cities , in fact, the history of the Western Xia population is estimated not more than 3 million , while the Southern Song Dynasty and Waldo in a population of about 50 million , so the recruitment of Xixia approach will be different, mainly in the history of the Western Xia huge number of militia -based , so the Western Xia would be more practical intermediate arms.
For Liao , Liao mainly rely surrender their country, Khitan , not many people in the region will be recruited after the way the performance of local soldiers , according to the plan , the area will reduce the security barracks , so construction should think twice.
For Mongolia, in the future there will be two settings , Mongolia will be able to show proselytism nomadic and sedentary state, Mongolian nomadic states have different architectural tree , under settled state , the economy will not be a problem , but the prairie will be more difficult to maintain the characteristics of the military
City Public Security:
In the new setting, the greatest impact on urban security troops will be , health and management , it was nobody tubes and urban security is a big difference , in addition to reducing the impact of the law on the city , dirty on law and order effects due to population increases correspondingly reduced , while China has been the attitude of the religious people are more tolerant ( or said .. does not matter ) , so the impact of religion on law and order will be relatively small ( in the game of religious manifestations of culture, in fact, even is alien rule, we still can not quite resist speaking frequently ) and distance factors raise capital , so please pay attention to security issues when destroy Huanglong House. . .
Army recruitment:
Most factions can recruit through the walls of a basic maintenance arms, recruit barracks walls and the lowest level of maintenance of arms , and no cultural restrictions , basic remote classes in the lower arms can recruit barracks , senior remote branches need bows Camp national Guard military Academy can recruit generals , no military academy can be found in municipal buildings to recruit senior generals, followed by focus - regional recruitment
Intermediate and Intermediate more troops are required for each faction can only recruit a certain proportion of culture , some mid-level troops and all senior troops only in a limited area of recruitment, such as Postscript Yokoyama step only child recruitment in the vicinity of Qinghai, beyond the Great Wall Jurchen Infantry only city in the northeast several recruiting, recruiting in the northeast Bohai infantry only several city, Qiu army only in northern Shanxi and Liaohe River recruitment , etc. , some branches of the military , such as a series of one -step Nishikawa , Liao 's Naiman archers in a city such as only recruiting, upgrade the barracks can unlock some senior recruitment area or reduce the cultural needs of the branches of the military recruitment
Each faction can build barracks to recruit some local characteristics indigenous arms , arms recruit local characteristics also limited cultures , indigenous barracks has two levels, both for the city's security and population growth has a negative addition , the higher level barracks , plus the greater the negative , so unless you are sure to certain types of troops , otherwise careful construction
Factions Features:
To compensate for some of the factions vulnerable , soldiers prominent factional differences, some factions have special bonus
1 . Liao , Jin , Nishikawa , Beijing Lake City Lianghuai each level the number of branches to recruit +1
2 . Mongolia, the number of branches of each level recruitment Xia +2
3 Western Xia , the number of cities in Mongolia each level maintenance troops +1
4 . Reduce the number of court each level city maintenance
Data and combat arms:
1. Arms 12 highest anti- armor , anti- armor higher , the lower the anti-technology , and heavy armor forces greatly improved fatigue.
2. arms each have different movement speed , armor thicker , more slowly , Archers Javelin speed is slightly higher than the same level of arms , pikemen rate is slightly lower than the same level of arms, so you can rely on terrain Light Infantry advantages, excellent fatigue strength and speed to beat heavy infantry in some places.
3. Armored Cavalry and Guards vitality of two generals , armored cavalry have rushed chaos formation skills , light infantry in front of the armored cavalry become vulnerable.
4. archers have down effect , the amount of downed with different types of bows , arrows rocket trajectory more curved than normal , down effect is stronger, the Japanese bow range of the shortest , most curved trajectory.
5. crossbow relatively flat trajectory , so please try not to pay attention to arms arranged before the crossbow.
Some may cause confusion in the description of the problem:
Explain in advance , so that we have a ready , do not think all that does not comply with their own ideas bug
1 Why sometimes do not take the initiative to the opposite side of your enemy to attack , or run all the way up the hill it?
This is because Shaoding using the latest version of the really bad AI (G5AI) script that ai patch is different from other places is that he is defined by the form of the script a lot of the behavior of the army , so that each unit has more reaction , the enemy will be some reaction did not occur before the game , such as the generals will pay attention to their protection , ai will pay attention to seize high ground , etc. , ai be your strength to make judgments , so sometimes you may choose a defensive rather than offensive , this is not a bug! , AI does not daze.
2 Why then give a team of soldiers under the command After a child is good all- gray buttons do ?
This is really bad AI content of the script, the real battlefield is constantly changing, the generals can not always informed of the entire battlefield , while their soldiers can not instantly respond to general instruction , whereas previously in the game, the player is in fact God Perspective battle command , the script for this purpose is to change this situation , increasing the difficulty of the players , so the battle is more authenticity , you need to make a pre-judgment battlefield situation , issued a more appropriate instruction for each group of soldiers on the battlefield not so much the chance to regret , really bad ai also use the older version of SS because without this setting , and use a newer version of Brad steel G5ai then comes this feature, Shao updated version used in some places may but a little different and Brad steel is the same.
3 Why ai national diplomacy is not very active ?
Shao strategy ai is XAI above modifications , XAI has several features : 1.AI good at crossing , 2.AI defenders capacity is relatively strong , 3.AI more careful , relatively speaking , XAI not too strong desire to attack but defense when performance is good , because the ai more careful , so he needs to make more diplomatic activity before proceeding to consider , in addition to ancient China border trade because of more restrictive , causing me to improve the trade agreement concluded difficulty , the other because the map is relatively large, relatively decentralized country, so envoys time on the road will be more , but the two most important countries Song start a state of war , the warring countries will carry out the war , diplomatic activities to be held in abeyance for a while.
4 Why ai offensive strategy is not very positive ?
Although the game called Medieval 2 : Total War , but I'm afraid most of the players are directed at this age comes a part of the war just a game , but not all, war is only part of politics , in fact, most between Song and Xia time is for peaceful state , as Dali Korea peace on the edge of a longer period of time , both players play the whole war like the war also like farming , though Shao temporary because the trait and the script so it is relatively simple affairs aspects of performance is not good, but I do not want this to become only mod mod war , of course, if ai wisely points is good, but after all, just ai ai, his intelligence is limited , and not before the production team responsible for ai crew , in fact or not , most of the mod just follow the various ai patch , suitable to produce their own mod , very little of ai , ai file the settings are not isolated, he was part of a system includes not only set the offensive defensive strategy , including diplomatic settings and countermeasures under different circumstances , Shao ai given more careful , but be careful not mean mentally retarded , willing to attack the AI does not mean he is a good AI, because many tantamount to suicide attack , good ai would under the circumstances, to make informed decisions defensive attack your defense emptiness towns , while suffering when you attack , so although it is now beginning to adjust various parameters ai , but raise is limited, this is a long-term project , but I basically can determine that 0.8 will be stronger than the 0.75 ai strategic offensive might with some other AI patch when it is released , the ai is said to be the best strategy SS ai patch , offensive between savageAI based and graculAI, when I used to Mongolia farm trials were run around playing Golden State , offensive should be more than XAI 's strengths , the problem is more concerned with the rebels ai may for other enemies not to spend too much effort .
5 Why sometimes click and then click Custom Battle battle after pops ?
This mod has a lot of big problems , Shao had no such problems . . But do not know which day . . Perhaps because too many reasons for new content. . Finally Shao has also become one of them , because there is no problem log record , so it is not clear how to solve , this is not a big problem , if they go into battle after exiting wait, the next release of memory, the probability of re-entering the battle out of the custom will be a lot less
6 Why do people 's surname , first name , why each general can only marry a wife ?
Medieval 2 is done because the British game , the Europeans are on the back of the surname , the Europeans are monogamous , this is all just a game after cohabitation impossible to limit changes to the death of Caesar and Cleopatra , because limitations , he can not easily marry her , Shao given names which are separate first and last name , and the name of the other Chinese theme mod basically are together , these two approaches have advantages and disadvantages , name together the advantage is that the names seem more normal , the disadvantage is there will be issues such as Yue Fei was born at home a Hanshizhong surnames such changes . Such a special set of Han War , famous names and family members are separated, family members have the same last name , name can not enter the family tree , mostly because of three forces warlord family , so not a big problem with a name, but Shao Song are inside the empire , the heads of several theater also need to specify the court , we can not let everyone Song Chao , right ? Although separate name names might look quite normal , but he can guarantee that the father and the child's surname is the same, but the name can be separated to provide more possible combinations , it can be a little lazy point . . . Tibetan and Mongolian situation is rather special , the Tibetan people do not have a surname , but because the game appears basically aristocratic , they still made a separate name , but when the Tibetan Song celebrities hard to find , so the name may be relatively small, then made a name in the form of the Mongolian tribes name +
