This is a great little patch thanks - makes reshuffling a lot less irritating!

I tend to give the AI roughly twice as many points as me to make things a bit more challenging. Just set the army size in the DAG to say 650 points and only spend 350.

Giving the computer more points is the only way to make single player more challenging at the moment. This is doable at the moment by selecting less points than the maximum but I would like to see this as an explicit option. My biggest bugbear with single player DAG games is the lack of flexibility;...

A Gates of Troy style campaign that uses Field of Glory for the battles would be perfect!

It would have been possible to implement free form movement like the table top game, DBA Online managed it after all. This would have been much harder to implement, especially the AI but it is a shame that hexes were chosen instead.

The images are .png files so you could change them if you wanted. You can find them in sub folders in \program files\slitherine\fieldofglory\armies. There are over 4,000 images, so it would be a lot of work!

In the "Swords and Scimitars" beta it was possible to modify the army list definitions because they were in XML. In the production version these definitions seem to be in a binary file. Is it possible to modify these definitions in the production version and if not could this be added in a...

I live in Badingham and am looking for opponents to play FoG. I have a large selection of 25mm armies and two 15mm ones, Late Roman/Early Byzantine and Sassanid. I don't know if you could get up here for a game. I have plenty of space or perhaps I could come down to Ipswich for a game. You can conta...

Sorry, I don't have access to the save file anymore. The hard drive died when our dog knocked my computer over! I'm now on the laptop until I get the PC looked at.

I tried to start a game with a 500 point Early Achaemenid Persian army created in the pre-beta D.A.G. FoG crashed before the map was shown with the following stack dump. OutOfBoundsException 1.3.7 2010 11 05 win {} gamefixed.s.AncientsFHexImp.UpdateAfterOldDataFix o gamefixed.s.AncientsFHexImp A1o g...

My video card is an ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro and the PC is a Dell Inspiron 531.

One thing that would help to weaken swarms of poor quality troops would be extending the distance at which battle groups have to make cohesion tests in response to adverse events. Currenlty battle groups in adjacent hexes have to test but why not extend this to battle groups within two or three hexe...

The noble knights are grouped together with the spearmen, limiting the combined total of knights plus spearmen to 3!

The "welcome to the beta" dialog is coming up behind the start screen so the game appears to hang indefinitely. I am able to work around this by typing ctrl+alt+delete and selecting "start task manager", which allows me to click OK on the welcome dialog. As a general comment, alt...

Running the latest version of FoG on Windows Vista, I had the following crash while creating a Swiss army in the D.A.G. I was trying to select the troop type for a second sub general: the drop down list came up empty (instead of the usual two lines; one for pike and one for halberd) and the game cra...

That's a shame. GoT is such a good game but it'd getting a bit long in the tooth these days.

What are the main differences between GoT and LA? GoT is described as turn based, whereas LA is RTS? Are they really different in this respect? I like GoT and Chariots of War so I'm considering buying LA but I don't like RTS games, so I'm not interested if LA isn't turn based. One of the strengths o...

John,

Thanks for letting me know about Perth.

Thursday night is not good for me because it clashes with the Stirling club but I may try and make it up to Perth one week.

What scale is the 3rd May event?

Do you have any other weekend club days?

Just to clarify, I am looking for opponents in the original Stirling in Scotland!

Next Thursday I hope
