Karvon's Visigoths defeated Garokan's Huns 63-46.

FoG2 isn't written in Unity. Perhaps you are thinking of the original FoG? Cheers Pip Heh, not a programmer, so not up on the details of the game engine; the point being I'm pretty sure all the LOS geometry calculations regarding terrain are hard-coded into the game engine, though my understanding ...

Here are the visibility rules from WRG 7th as a point of reference: In the WRG Ancients 7th Edition rules (7th Ed) the visibility/line‐of‐sight (LOS) limits are detailed under the “Visibility” section. Here are the key limits: Daylight / clear conditions, open ground Troops in the open on low ground...

After some discussion this past week, the coordinators voted unanimously to continue army selection with allies as an option. Reasons included: 1. Tradition. Allies have always been an option dating back to the original Digital League, which we succeeded. 2. Fewer viable lists. Some lists are simply...

I've created this forum and moved relevant posts to clean up the rules forum a bit.

I think LOS dynamics are hardcoded in the unity engine, so not sure if you add elevation elements to a mod or not. You might be able to modify by unit type though.

A site I stumbled upon while looking for something completely different. Perhaps some might be interested?

A lot to look through at least

Here's an update including last season (2024); not sure why I forgot to post this earlier. Edited to include a few missing players data.

Where is the glory in beating a handicapped opponent? Well, handicapping helps level the playing field, which is of particular importance in campaigns where you may have very low level players facing very high level ones. If you don't do this, you simply see the strong player steamrollering over th...

Correct.

We appreciate your feedback.

The coordinators are discussing the idea and will respond in the next week or so.

Some questions Which historical eras are of most (and least) interest in campaigns? Would armies tailor-made for the campaign increase or reduce appeal? What parts of rules are the most interesting and off-putting, respectively? Thoughts on handicap systems anyone? I’m toying with the idea of givin...

Yeah, I'd prefer a shorter LOS; wish it was an option in game settings actually. I think you might consider setting it to max range of heavy artillery.

I usually alternate between Chaos and Little Wars between TDC seasons. As HOML kickedoff this offseason and WTC was also running I've opted to hold off on running Chaos till after next TDC, so probably starting in April 2026. Here's the data on Slitherine Official Ancients Tournaments I compiled and...

TDC participation has been dropping since hitting a high of 106 a few seasons back. I think with campaigns, it's probably an issue of lack of interest in what's been offered. Another issue is campaigns folding prematurely, which I think sours players on joining such again. Sometimes this is due to o...

IDK, they are often quite a bit behind the actual server update; I usually see them pop up in MP to play list well before I ever get a notification by email.

Updated to include Teutonic Knights

Updated to include ACHAEMENID PERSIA
