The deployment zone is all dependent on whether you're defending or attacking and a few other things, I've seen some which extended to some half the map. I REALY like the new map, I enjoy how it changes color eatch season, and the new turn system is Great, Instead of half a year like in stock etw, its 2 weeks, so you can stop a enemy army before its too late.
The biggest downfall to me is how small the deployment zone is. The fortress guns fire if you put troops on the walls next to them, they don't do too much damage though. Like most other TWs, a thorough modding is in order. Yes, the BAI is horrible, but the use of guns is the least of it's problems. The ETW tech tree is complete nonsense anyway, most of the earlier technologies fit the post-Thirty Years' War 17th century (Really, plug bayonets?) while others would go into the Victorian era (Yeah, steampships). Takes half the time to work up to technology they had at the beginning, and the top end is well above that (steamships, etc).īottom line is that the BAI stinks, but would be far more challenging if the AI used arty.īTW, I attacked a stupid fort (I liberated Spain from the pesky Spaniards), and the guns on the ramparts actually fired a little. You start in 1700, and the game is over in 100 years. No less.Īs for the gun counts at earlier time periods, the whole ETW timeline is hosed anyway. Assuming the guns scale the same as the inf units, then it's one gun battery for every 3-4 inf units.
