SS 6.1 vs SS6.2

Though i thought .2 was the .1 improved ive seen that some people stick with .1 . Why is that?

Some people don't like the new additions, some can't bother to download more and others just like 6.1 as it is. It's just down to preferences, like choosing food.

I think more submods are compatible with 6.1 than with 6.2 too.

The one thing I did not like about 6.1 was the AI losing Territories to rebellion. This doesn't happen so easy in 6.2 rr/rc.

Also the AI didn't seem capable of growing much further past 15 maybe 16 territories in a GC. Kinda made it a bit boring after you managed to hit roughly 20 territories of your own. Again the AI has no troubles there - I'm a 150 turns in my TO campaign, I own 31, the Mongols have 32 and the Fatamids have roughly 25 and the french about 20.

Playing as Seljuks i got Tabriz 2 times and baghdad 3 times from the mongols due to rebellion my ally kwarzem most have gotten at Kermanshah like 10 times so ure massively wrong AI loses the same amount of territory as in 6.1

The Mongols are a different kettle of fish altogether. They do not garrison their cities (except for like one or two units), nor do they build new buildings or repair the ones they smashed when taking them for their own - they just spawn infinite stacks of uber troops to make it interesting

. It is intended in the submod that they do lose territories to rebellion because of massive unrest. In my current game they should probably have up to 40 - 45 territories if it wasn't for rebellion

I apologise, I should have been more clearer that Mongols are the exception. The statement was centered around the other 29 factions that are more stable in their growth.

Simply preferences, as mentioned above. I think more sub mods are compatible with 6.1, but on the other hand: RR/RC, the best sub mods I can think of, includes 6.2 compilation. There are no major differences, except the difficulty is supposed to be higher. Didn't notice that really, though. Only the starting off is a bit hard.

i used to play 6.2 then i switched back to 6.1 to play sub mods =D and 6.2 they attack too much =(

**BURNY26** · February 15, 2010, 03:48 PM

Thank you for the response

So in general : -compatibility with sub mods for .1
-AI is harder for .2

anything else ,that you only experience while playing ?

I think scripts are more stable and bug free in 6.2. Sometimes in 6.1 the scripts can be buggy which results in having to reload from much earlier. It isn't frequent but definitely make saves every other turn for the last 6 turns or so for each campaign.
