New Economy Moving Along? | June 16, 2009 |
A day or two ago I spotted the presence of "Wood" in the "new" warehouse screen of a region on the Far East. A possible indication that New Economy is advancing? |

Some Inappropriately Named Characters Deleted | June 16, 2009 |
From the login message today:
Inappropriate Names A number of highly inappropriate character names have been deleted with no prior warning. I've decided on the harsh approach because the character creation page says in no uncertain terms some of the rules.
– Tom
The reason for deletion includes having a title included in the character name, such as "King" or "Queen". As the character creation screen says, titles, including "Sir" or "Lady" are in-game titles that your characters must earn. Names should also be period-appropriate. For additional information, refer to the Name Rules. |

Mixed Infantry Balance Change | May 27, 2009 |
Tom recently posted the following changes to Mixed Infantry on the Discussion List:
I've modified the combat effectiveness of mixed infantry a bit, it should now be generally stronger and reflect their CS values better. This is on testing only right now, it will be a few days (or weeks) until it moves to stable. But try them, the old "MI sucks" mantra may no longer hold true.
Also, one often-overlooked fact about MI: They take less size penalties than other units. You may have noticed that the "CS per man" value of units goes slightly down in large units (i.e. if you have 20 men with 400 CS, and add 200 men with identical values, thy will not have 4400 CS, but a bit less). MI is less effected by this, since the men can complement each other better.
– Tom
