Re: PBEM prestige question -- does not show prestige for hexes

Okay, thank you, you are saying what the manual says; so I guess that is it. If the hex shows 0, then it grants no prestige. Which means that holding hexes with 0 points gives no advantage? Thus the prestige only comes from killing and capturing enemy units. We should be able to test this... perhaps...

Re: After Action Reports

I prefer PBEM rather than playing against the computer. I am pretty new to PC2, bought it only a month ago. My game buddy and I try to do PBEM. But I have to say that so far I like the overall game, but the PBEM scenarios seem to have some faults. In separate threads I mentioned that prestige points...

Re: PBEM prestige question -- does not show prestige for hexes

Hmm, OK I can accept what you say if that is the way the game is designed. When I read the manual, however, it states that prestige is given upon holding certain hexes, and that "capture prestige" is given the first time certain hexes are taken. The manual makes no distinction between defa...

Re: PBEM prestige question -- does not show prestige for hexes

OK, here's a screenshot. Notice the value says 0. All towns in this Marasal scenario have 0 as their prestige. Is that the way it is supposed to be? I mean, aren't towns supposed to give you prestige points?

Re: Problems with PBEM challenge games

?? yes there have been many games that operate like that. All players do their turns, then each submits their turn to the server. This can happen over many hours or even days -- i.e. players submit their turns one by one, it does not have to be all at once. Then when all turns have been submitted, t...

Re: Problems with PBEM challenge games

Thanks for the reply -- I also replied in the other board. And I hear what you are saying about just playing switched sides -- that is what we are doing. Even so, I wish that PC2 had the "mutual submit" and then the computer moves both opponents at the same time. As it is, with the I go - ...

Re: PBEM prestige question -- does not show prestige for hexes

There's literally a number in the hex info that shows the prestige gain. If there is a zero, then the hex doesn't provide any prestige. 2.jpg Yes, I see that number if it is there. But when we play PBEM, we usually do not see that. So my question is are you seeing that in a PBEM game, or when playi...

PBEM prestige question -- does not show prestige for hexes

In PBEM, gaining prestige is very important. So I want to capture the hexes with the most prestige. But the game only says that prestige is given when you capture a hex, it does not say how much prestige is given for each hex. So here are my questions: -- is prestige the same for all hexes? -- is pr...

Problems with PBEM challenge games

My buddy and I have played Maresal at War and Not Napoleon PBEM challenges, and in both scenarios the player who moves first seems to have a significant advantage. Here is what we see: -- the first player can capture prestige hexes first -- and when capturing those hexes he can receive the defensive...
