Differences between Kingdoms BC 2.02 and medieval 2 patch 3.0 BC 2.02

After playing both I noticed some differences

banners: vanilla BC has awesome flags and banners over the units... kingdoms version does not

ports: in vanilla you get a trade fleet when you build a port, but in kingdoms version you don't... you need to build a merchants wharf to unlock a trade fleet

AOR: in vanilla it is more generous, in kingdoms you get far fewer aor units (e.g. makuria can only recruit sudanese tribal infantry in one settlement whilst in vanilla you can get em almost anywhere in ethiopia)

massive siege 'bug': If theres an enemy settlement with a huge garrison close to it (aka the two near Sindh) and I lay siege to the town with a full stack and then wait for the town to starve the enemy sallies with the full stack in support. However during the battle I get a 'reinforcements delayed' message saying my computer cannot handle the enemy reinforcement army! Which is bs by the way

What BC Kingdoms version are you talking about?

Theres a Kingdom version for BC?

**wudang_clown** · September 15, 2010, 03:10 PM

Yes, there is, however it wasn't prepared well, so there are few inconsistencies and incompatibilities between that BC to Kingdoms portation.

That's why it's not recommended to use it. That's why I'm a bit surprised sughdian made this thread.

it's easy to find near the top of the list when you google 'broken crescent'

When I started playing BC I installed the kingdoms version, played it for a year and only recently installed vanilla version, and I can make you a long list of stuff that is missing in kingdoms versios if u want

I;ve got kingdoms installed for other mods, is BC 3.0 going to be fully functional on a kingdoms install?

I thought the version of BC that included kingdoms in the title would be the more up-to-date, advanced version, that's why I got it. Kind of odd for the better version to be pre-expansion, but maybe I'll give it a try.

after trying a vanilla georgia campaign they still cannot recruit any units in telavi or kotasi(?) which surprised me. Seems unfair to deny them cheap garrison fodder
