šÆ Shogun Advanced - Official Thread

@rogercooper
2.6 & map.yml is the future, but LaFayette is not a frequent visitor anymore and it would appear he is the only one capable of making 2.6 & map.yml downloads work, so your call as to whether to backtrack over all your previous uploads and put them in triplea_maps.yamlPerhaps just put the new ones from now on in triplea_maps.yaml ?
-
@thedog I am going to finish off posting everything in the 2.6 way and then backtrack with triplea_maps.yaml.
-
@rogercooper
On balance that is probably for the best, delay updating the flaky triplea_maps.yaml till you have to. Do you have 30+ maps uploaded and with more to come? -
@thedog I don't have precise numbers, but I have uploaded most of the maps that I have collected.
-

@TheDog I recently tried this mod and there is a lot to like about it. However, it does have one problem, at the start of everyone is at war with everyone else. This is both ahistorical and confusing to play. They should either start neutral with each other or grouped into two loose alliances, one in Eastern Japan and other in Western Japan.
-
@RogerCooper Thanks for the feedback and good to hear there is a lot you like about this game. About the initial settings: yes that was a deliberate choice, as it is FFA we like to have instant action. and a "what if"- feeling The game is very historical concerning the map, mountain ranges/passes, spreading resources, Pu value of various provinces,units, events and so... but indeed not historical in the alliances setting at game start .... that was a sacrifice we made to have a better ballance between the Clans.... but you can tackle this by changing the Diplomatic settings at game start with the editor. greetings ebbe
-
@ebbe I am going to try this with everyone starting at peace (except Gaia and Nature). In general, I don't like FFA games as you can't make plan when everyone is at war and players on the edge of the board are favored.
-
my experience with this game is that as a human player one has good infuence in diplomatic settings with succesful reasonable good outcome on diplo proposals and even Ai players change diplo settings regularly.... but more randomly it seems...?
-
@ebbe I tried the game with everyone starting at peace. The AI's quickly started wars, so there is no need to worry about nothing happening in the game. You many want to add scenarios with everyone at peace or starting alliance.
-
Hi, just 2 quick questions cause I do not want to waste your time
- is this game stable or still work in progress ?
- is it possible to play with 2 human players and all the rest played by AI ?
no alliances like for Axis and Allies so 14 factions will always be player by random AI
I am asking because it seems an interesting game but do not want to read and learn if it not matching to what I asked
thanks

@malmessi
Hi- it is stable, plays slow, but stable, it is not been worked on
- Yes, two humans can be adversaries or they can ally , yes the other factions will be AI, I suggest making them Fast-AI
Enjoy!

@TheDog

@malmessi
