Re: Can computer AI opponents "see" the scorecard when it is disabled?

Well, then what the heck make an AI on the other side of the planet, across an ocean it can't cross (yet), and with no contact whatsoever, declare war on you ? If it's not the graph, it has to be...

Re: ulm help

A few more tips with Ulm :

- if AIs are giving you trouble, you might try finding some cheap indy troops to buy in bulk and parade along your borders, just so the AI don't all declare war on you,...

Re: Question on Dwarven Hammer / Forge of Ancients / Hammer o Forge Lord

The hammers only reduce the cost of the items, but won't allow you to forge items you could not forge without them.

Forge of the Ancient both reduces the cost, and gives all of your forgers an...

Re: War Elephants morale Problem ?

The Elephants not only have weak moral, they have both high hit points and low defense/protection. So they'll take and soak up a lot of hits, which is good, but each of these hits will force a moral...

Re: the (AI) message "Nation X has declared war on your unholy nation"

What is sure, however, is that Ulm's crossbows...

1a) Assuming he survives the battle, B God is killed "trying to retreat into enemy territory". In any case, he dies. Since he has no province left, he's out of the game.
