Hello there!
Those of you following the AE late campaign know I hinted at siege previews. I wanted them to be videos but just a few more updates are needed.
So in the meantime, I took the initiative by at least showing you guys a sneak peek at port assaults, focusing on the naval aspect. Your eyes are not fooling you, these are multiple ships per unit!
Professional naval units have only one ship. It is only the transport ships that are more numerous. AE brings more depth to the naval aspect of combined battles where you have three main sections to your unit composition:
- Land units of course to challenge the opponent on land
- Transport units to land in key locations at key opportunities. They have as much men as the land units (which is usually 240 men)
- Naval units, which have less men than the transport units and one ship but are more powerful and efficient at sea: Their prime role is to protect the transports and escort them to their landing.
We hope this brings more depth and more variety in roles for your different unit classes. I hope you love this sneak peek; till the next preview!

Look at this new Carthage siege on escalation 2. Map is still WIP to make it more amazing - but you can still enjoy it. Bear in mind this is a 40vs40 battle and my PC is not the best...
