    Sweet +rep
    Wanted for:
    Breaking and gluing back together and trying to pass off as never being broken in the first place.

    Great, but I try to download the (DLV Teutonic) game, but for the third time--it stops half way. Any idea?
    Thorolf was thus armed. Then Thorolf became so furious that he cast his shield on his back, and, grasping his halberd with both hands, bounded forward dealing cut and thrust on either side. Men sprang away from him both ways, but he slew many. Thus he cleared the way forward to earl Hring's standard, and then nothing could stop him. He slew the man who bore the earl's standard, and cut down the standard-pole. After that he lunged with his halberd at the earl's breast, driving it right through mail and body, so that it came out at the shoulders; and he lifted him up on the halberd over his head, and planted the butt-end in the ground. There on the weapon the earl breathed out his life in sight of all, both friends and foes. [...] 53, Egil's Saga
    I must tell you here of some amusing tricks the Comte d'Eu played on us. I had made a sort of house for myself in which my knights and I used to eat, sitting so as to get the light from the door, which, as it happened, faced the Comte d'Eu's quarters. The count, who was a very ingenious fellow, had rigged up a miniature ballistic machine with which he could throw stones into my tent. He would watch us as we were having our meal, adjust his machine to suit the length of our table, and then let fly at us, breaking our pots and glasses.

    Does it stops always in the same % of download? If yes, say me, if not, try to download again

    Mwha ha ha ha Got it in the goal!

    As I said, I tried 3 times and they wrapped it up like the download was finished around 50%. But, then I tried going via the orginal page from Der Drakken and it worked all the way. Maybe I did nothing diffrent, but the gods are with me on this one.

    I think there should be less metal on the crossbows and more variation.

    We will have multiple types of crossbows, depending on the era. (At least 3 are scheduled)

    They just seem too uniform and advanced technically for these Balts. No offense just saying the Balts clearly look less 'technical' in the screens.

    But they are raiders and wasting teutonic settlements. Beeing a typical weapon for citizen (schützengilden). this raider can steal this weapons from dead opponents.
    seems logical for me.

    The balts the polish and the Teutonic order looked very similar on the battlefield (at least the common units, knights had their distinct dressing). So I do not see any problems with the fact that they are as far in military thechnology as the surrounding factions.

    Actually that makes sense. The Balts mainly got their crossbows from western european merchants.
