Hi Philippe! Could you give us an update of the timeplan for this final patch? Was quite some time since it was announced and have been waiting with the modding. Is the beta started or maybe even concluded?

No problems, Philippe! Any hotfixes in the process?

Etruscan Army advances to the vacated hex.

Romans: please roll for Retreat Attrition and post here to which hex the Roman Army retreats.

I suggest that we keep all games in the campaign unranked. So outcome of games only have effects on the campaign and nothing else.

I’d say the DEFENDER and then with himself as SIDE B. This in order for the other player to be Side A and thus to immediately get it after having accepted the challenge so can deploy. Plus consistent with that ATTACKER should be SIDE A to be the one to move first.

Great!

BATTLE NEAR ARRETIUM
Roman Army II (Roman with no allies, 1550 FP) versus Etruscan Army I (Etruscan with no allies, 1550 FP). Mediterranean Hilly.

(Rolled for Map Type… 2 => Terrain in Attacker’s hex => Hilly)

So question to the Romans is: does the Roman Army II attack the Etruscan Army I?

The Etruscans selected Army Operation as well, and their Army I moved south one hex from Arretium, entering the ZoC of Roman Army II. The Etruscan Army II managed to move along the road from Volaterrae to Populonia before failing to move further.

The Romans selected Army Operation, and moved two hexes northwards from Clusium but their Army in Tarquinii failed in its first move attempt.

The Romans deployed their two Armies in Tarquinii and Clusium, the Etruscans in Arretium and Volaterrae.

A fantasy setting, same map but with the fantasy creatures that people in the antic believed existed. Why "antic"? This is Kingdoms, not Empires. because it would be fun! Ah, fair enough. :) Then that's a typical mod opportunity for you to dwelve into, design, and develop. Mods are often ...

Appreciating that you're very busy with the imminent Kingdoms DLC :), could you still please advise on the status and timing of the Empires final patch and its beta ? Also, to know how much effort to put on modding the game currently, plus my question above on whether you want input and suggestions...

Is the DLC likely to entail yet another patch, or is it planned to use Patch 1.07.7? (Barring any hotfixes of course. )
