Another Newbie Slugfest - Restarted

[Aku]

Comon lets seriously keep the 0 indies. It means faster expansion and early wars with national troops because of the very difficult research. You know you want to keep this current game!

Yeah i wouldn't mind continuing with 0 indeps as well .

It would be at least an interesting game . Mainly indies just slow down the start of fighting but nothing else .
So lets try this game with indies 0 .

Personally, I would rather not have indies 0. I suppose that having a low level of indies makes sense of a very difficult research game to allow for battles between national troops, but taking provinces left and right with scouts seems cheap to me.

I think I like fighting better than grabbing. I vote for a restart.

Ok, Game Restarting Again. I am truly sorry. I started it just before I went to bed, and obviously went past 9.

I too feel 0 Indies is just too cheap.

Game is restarted and ready for upload of new pretenders.

By the way, how the heck do you rename commanders. I have tried and tried and tried to do this but nothing seems to work.

Is it in the manual, if so just tell me the page, or to RTFM I admit I have done as usual and laid the manual aside as soon as I got the box open, I have looked for it breifly in the manual but no luck.

Thanks, Grim Knight.

you right click the commander and hit the "r" key

i believe that is the key lol

Indies 0 is one of those tiny little things that annoy - not so much that I think that no one has ever used the setting except possibly for SP testing, but because it's one of the settings that wraps around, while others don't.

Seems like if you're increasing the strength of independents, it's extremely unlikely that you want it set to 0.

Note though - I've definately seen provinces empty of troops on a setting of at least 3, possibly 5 or 6. We had a PBEM game going, the 2nd turn I see provinces supposedly empty of troops. I oh so very hesitantly moved 2 separate armies out, orders to retreat - and took both provinces. Yet the setting wasn't 0, and after those 2 the neighbors all had the usual 30-60 troops. (Happily we did a restart, as it turned out to be a very bad choice of maps.)
