FOG2 Ancient Open Beta v1.6.12 - changelog

Post by rbodleyscott »

All players are invited to join the Open Beta for version 1.6.12 of FOG2 Ancients.

Please could people test the new map rerolls option in MP – see below.

(Please make any comments on the Slitherine forum)

Open Beta Version 1.6.12

• MP allow Map Rerolls option:
  • o There is now an option in the MP challenge setup screen to “Allow Rerolls” in Ranked custom battle challenges.
    o This is to facilitate the use of the Slitherine Elo ranking system in player-run tournaments that allow either player to reroll the map at the start of the game if they deem it unsuitable. Mechanically, this entails one player conceding the game and then the challenge being set up again.
    o If the “Allow Rerolls” option is set, concessions will be ignored for Elo ranking purposes if they occur in either player’s first 2 turns. After the first two turns, the conceding player will be considered the loser for Elo purposes.
Open Beta Version 1.6.11

• New Army Lists:
  • o Meroitic 280 BC – 400 AD
    o Axumite 100-970 AD
    o Beja 250-849 AD
    o Beja 850-1049 AD
    o Blemmye 298-499 AD
    o Blemmye 500-550 AD
    o Nobatae 298-499 AD
    o Nobatae 500-550 AD
    o Christian Nubian 550-1049 AD
• Other list changes:
  • o Kardakes Hoplites added to Achaemenid Persian 419-329 BC list.
    o Irregular Foot added to Seleucid 300-206 BC list.
    o Tweaks to Indian (Rajput) and Ghaznavid lists.
Many thanks to Paul Adaway (and Steve Hales of Little Big Men Studios for shield patterns where appropriate) for all the new units/textures.

Please see unified thread re Terrain Display Bugs on Medieval forum, since it appears to affect both betas.
