This was basically fixed in the latest update for the game, wasn't it. With the new settings. Works really well. Love the changes to the red text as well.

I made a mod to address the game's fonts and some red colours...

These changes should make the game a little more legible.

Changing the alpha on this is a great idea. I get comments in streams that the game looks bad until I turn off the ownership overlay. Would love to see this implemented.

The advantage for attacking a keil from the rear, you say it applies if the attack is from the three rear squares. This is not correct, it only applies if the attack is from the one square directly to the rear. This is not a minor point, it has a significant impact on the power of the keils because...

Just to have something to bleat about: :) The only confusing thing for me is your accentuation of 'Keil', which you pronounce like 'Kiel'. a 'Keil' is a wedge (a triangular shaped tool used to separate, lift up or hold in place an object) a 'Kiel' is a keel (the bottom-most longitudinal structural ...

Hi all, I've just published a video showing the awesome new units and game mechanics coming with the Rise Of The Swiss DLC. https://youtu.be/9pmZrkE7JCY When I was preparing for making the video I was blown away with the changes this DLC brings. I didn't think it could get any better than Storm of A...

That's awesome. :) The wagons are amazing. I've been fiddling around with them a bit today and brushing up on their history. These are going to add a lot of nuance and fun to the game. I think players are also going to love the tankiness of the landsknecht units as well with their ability to trundle...

Hi Richard :) I see that some of the Swiss Keil units are called 'Determined Foot' rather than 'Heavy Foot'. I assume this has something to do with the fact the Swiss pikemen were able to attack from rough terrain? And we also now have a range of different types of wagons in the game. Is there a ref...

First of all, as a point of disclosure, I'm really only interested in single-player procedurally generated content - I really don't generally play scripted maps or multiplayer modes. I also expect a lot from strategy games. So I may not be the core target for the game. And with that in mind, I had (...

Hi gang. I've just started to release a series of videos showing off the new Adeptus Mechanicus DLC. This is a great addition to the game but requires a lot nuance to survive the early game. I've found that the key is getting the second city up and running relatively early. Anyhow, I hope this serie...

I've been recording a YouTube series and was just coming in to also report the Fireball spell bug. Getting that no matter who is casting it. I'll wait for the next update.

Wow! What an awesome resource.

Field of Glory 2 is the best tactical battle game covering the ancient world through to the Dark Ages. Fellow YouTuber, Richard Yorke, and I made a short 9-episode series where we recorded an 'open-hand' game so we could discuss in detail what we were thinking. I've called it a 'Tutorial' because we...

I had this same problem with my Kynoskephai scenario, which you can download from the game. I solved it like this: // Set Thracians Fragmented id = GetUnitOnTile(31,31); SetAttrib(id, "MoraleState", 2); SetUnitStatusFlag(id); SetAttrib(id, "DisplayMoraleState", 2); So if you put...

I'm changing the MoraleStatus of a couple of units by setting the attribute in the CustomiseUnits() function... FUNCTION CustomiseUnits() { int i; int id; int starting_strength; // starting strength - percent of full base unit strength // Custom MoraleStatus id = GetUnitID(1,1); if (id != -1) { SetA...

I might just weigh in a little here as well. I think players may assume that FoG: EMPIRES is a 'value-add' to Field of Glory II giving that game a cool way to play a campaign to generate the battles, and that is definitely the approach I took when I started beta testing the game. I started testing t...

Good luck everyone.

BTW, my Slitherine name is Das123 but my youtube channel is DasTactic (http://www.youtube.com/dastactic).

That would be great thanks Richard. And thanks for your help with the campaign issues I had the other day. Great game - I'm really enjoying it a lot.

The attached zip file contains the campaign for a series being uploaded to YouTube centered around a Graeco-Bactrian army. The playlist will be here... The campaign very loosely follows vague historic timelines of the Bactrians and their eastern regions. The campaign was created as a vehicle to show...

That makes sense. Thanks a lot.
