I understand graphics and sound files take up the bulk of a game install. But Im curious why if "Bloody road" is just scenarios files, ie text files, why is it 1GB in size? why isn't it say, 24MB? Please don't get me wrong, Im not trying to combative, Im just curious.

Blond_Knight

But if "Bloody Road" only contains scenarios, as the product description says, and only takes a few seconds to install, why is it over 1GB in size?
Im not complaining here Id just like to understand why its so big a file

I bought the CW2 and "Bloody Road" yesterday on sale at Matrix. Im curious why "Bloody road" is only 5mb smaller than the CW2 main install? I wondered if it was a "Birth of Rome" thing where is actually was a full install, but not advertised as such. But nope it wont install without CW2 being instal...

I'll pay for some DLC of Caesars romp through Gaul and Britain. And some action against those German barbarians! Stabby Stabby!

I had something very similar happen lastnight when I installed AACW on my Win7 machine. The game and the AGEsettings didn't work right until I applied the 1.17a patch.

What version? Im using Opensuse 13.1.

The older Ageod games play fine and are slightly faster(compared to Win 7 on the same machine) running on Linux.
The newer Ageod games run but there are no units on the map. Theyre there but they aren't displayed.
How much trouble would it be to make the newer games compatable with WINE?

Id say this is appropriate.

I have this happen about once an hour or so on my older 32bit laptop with 3GB RAM. Im assuming the game needs more RAM than the system has. I just close the game, relaunch it and continue.

Blond_Knight

Its always been normal for me.

I know its probably not as easy as that but I have to agree.

Blond_Knight

No, this is a game about Rome, not about the Greeks.

Blond_Knight

Is it possible to release the database files for the base game and its scenarios? Not trying to avoid buying DLC at all, but Id like to have a look at the files and tinker.

When can we expect to campaign against the barbarian scum in Gaul, Germania, and Brittania?

I started an Eastern front game as the CP lastnight after updating, and I agree that the word "horrific" applied. What a meat-grinder!!

Blond_Knight

Have you tried starting a new game? It looks like your not using the beta patch, try installing that.

OK. And if you could create an extensive document about how that's done that would be great too, yeah.
Oh and Im going to need you to come in over the weekend and get that done, yeah.

I had an issue with Eastern front scenario playing the EE. Many of my stacks had no ammo. They started the game with no ammo, and supply didn't catch up with them either. Stacks that started the game with ammo were resupplied. After reading some of the manual today I believe this is because in this...

Blond_Knight

Yeah but Im very leary of that. Even if there isn't an event to historically prevent me from doing as I like with the High Seas Fleet, I know I don't have numerical parity with the Royal Navy. Although Id love a chance to stomp on Beaty.

I captured Antwerp fairly easily in two turns in the Western front ten turn scenario. Unfortunately the BEF started landing in strength about two to three "areas" west of Antwerp and turned my flank and I lost. But this was only my first real game. Would sending the Battlecruiser squadron into the c...

If you miss it you can promote them the next turn correct? Or is the promotion available that turn only?

Exactly. Page Up/Dn and Arrows would be awesome. I know they are used for map controls, so what about either: 1. As with middle wheel, if the mouse is in the message box, the keys do not work on the map but instead on the message box 2. CTRL-Page Up/Dn and arrows are for the message box. Excellent ...
