Announcement: Europa Barbarorum II 2.3 released!

[Rendon]

Just checking if this is now intentional or a bug. In my Pergamon game, Hetaroi show up on the recruitment table despite the kingship reform not having occured (it's turn 5).

Not a bug. Kingship is no longer linked to your government building. However, what it will grant you is recruitment of Galatian units in Pergamon.

Or disband some units and build up your infrastructure.

That is the route of milk drinkers.

How do you fix the biography window going upwards above the screen issue, making it impossible to read the first half of it? Playing on 1366x768.

Enormous "Thanks" to all the team

[Commios]

Ssshht, the latter aren't done yet.

Sorry my lord.

Quick question about Stasis and the other Hellenistic "unrest building" (can't remember the name, sorry!) - is there any combination of governments/poleis/colonies that nullifies the unrest (apart from allied state gov), or do I just have to accept the penalty if I want to build, say, hyparchies or satrapies in Western Anatolia as the Seleukids?

Autonomia is the other one. Hellenes don't like being ruled by other Hellenes who think they're kings. Build an Allied Government, or accept the penalty.

Thanks for the quick response! Imo this is an interesting feature. Before, in all my AS runs, I would secure Anatolia ASAP for the easy money/colonists, but now there's incentive to consolidate and maybe expand elsewhere before committing to the conquest of the Hellenistic world.

Does this mean that some already unrest-prone cities will be extremely difficult or even impossible to hold as a Hellenistic faction without installing an allied gov? Because, if so, that's irritating from a min-max perspective but it does add flavour. On balance I welcome this change.

Dear all!

I realized if i change the medieval2.exe and kingdoms.exe compatibility mode to windows 7, then it will extremly slow down the end turn time.
In this case circa 2min. If i turn off this options the end turn time less then 20 sec. I have win 10. I hope this helps.
The question is for me, can it cause any change in the a.i. activity?


Peace!

Yes, that's exactly what it means. Note the assignment of Stasis and Autonomia isn't random or every Greek city - they were all specifically chosen. There are some places with only Stasis (eg Syrakousai) and I think only Autonomia, too. The idea is to prevent Hellenistic factions having an ahistorically easy time taking already-Greek places just because there's no culture penalty. Athenai for example, was rife with factionalism and political unrest, it didn't matter who was nominally in charge of it. Leave them to their own devices (ie install an Allied Government) and they exhaust their energies scheming against each other, instead of the nominal ruler.

Peace!

Obviously the change to Compatibility Mode only applies to Windows 7.

No, it doesn't have any impact whatsoever on AI activity, only on the stability of the game on Win7 machines.

Not done yet.

I said they're not done yet, not that they won't be. Our modellers/skinners work on the units that interest them, with concepts that give enough information to work from. They have concepts, but the artists are working on other things at the moment.
