BTS Patch 3.17! Run for the Hills!

Post by MoustachioedDictator »

The patch is here 170mb

Why does this invariably happen when I'm away? I haven't a fuckin' hope of DLing 170mb in the next fortnight, though I might attempt it anyway in desperation.

Justice's game is the proverbial spanner. he's auto-updated thanks to steam's infinite benevolence and can't open the old version of the turn until the admin password is cleared as per usual. In order to do that, he must find the admin password. Watch this space.

In the meantime, I would request we not patch so I can continue to play Space Jim and Nog's Game.

If we patch, I'll need somebody to play all my turns until the start of July, earliest. We need the admin password for Frolics, so Justice needs to remember it, we need a way to crack it, or somebody who Justice told it to needs to come forward. If none of these things coms to pass, the game may be dead. I'm winning here so lets hustle people!

I'm not at all sure I like this patch! It has essentially disabled by favourite invasion method: Amphibious cannon assault followed by cowardly Cavalry with high withdrawl chance followed by whatever else I have. Siege units can no longer make amphibious assaults (not sure if that includes over rivers!) and Units can no longer withdraw from combat during amphibious assaults. Coastal cities have never been so safe!

Are we upgrading to this? Or should I leave stuff as is?

leave it for now I think if that's ok as I can't D/L it for another week and a half! If Justice remembers the admin password, then we can decide.

I'm not even going to try and get the patch. I think our satelite has come unstuck, I'm gettting D/L speed of 01.kb/s, my turn in Nog's game has an estimated download time of 22 minutes.
