Another thing to consider is to only give the exp trickle to European civilizations and to not give it to other civilizations and see how it affects the game, and later on if we see it is necessary buff tad and twc civs some other way

The European church definitely needs to be able to build in age 1 if we want to go through with this change, it wouldnt make any sense otherwise

On a more serious note, I am glad that the whole drama discussion a couple of month ago actually lead somewhere and we finally have the patch team that the community was craving for quite some time now. I am interested to see what you guys come up with. I don't think that's what happened exactly, I...

On that same note, we could also keep churches cost at 100w, but give an them an upgrade that adds an exp trickle that cost 100w

A possible alternative for the China has no church problem is to give an upgrade to villages that cost 200w that gives the same exp trickle as a church

perhaps we could give a build time buff to the euro explorer

I think either we give it to euro civs, OR we take it away from TAD civs. TWC civs are fine.

I'm not so sure about that, it may be difficult, but it probably is possible, whether it is worth the effort is a valid concern though.

Interesting idea, what if we made it so you get less resources/exp the more trade posts you own on the same line. potentially we could make this apply in general or apply only it when you ship ATP, to nerf ATP and not affect normal play. For example a map with 4 tp line : - :coin: getting a single t...

The Problem: Currently the cards [Bank of Amsterdam] and [Bank of Rotterdam] are almost never included in a dutch players deck, and even if they are included, the cards are almost never sent. There are two fundamental problems with the cards which is why they are never sent; 1: even if you send the...

Although true it was a bug fix, those things are not mutually exclusive. A change to the game can both be a bug fix and a nerf and or buff.

I am very new to this, what do I need to do to setup my match with my opponent?

Tell me your thoughts please. Does this make any sense or am I just a crazy Dutch player

I was thinking of ways to buff Dutch to possibly balance them for 1v1 matches, so for team games, I don't know if this is fair. It is known that the Dutch have the worst late game economy in the game, and therefore the Dutch player is on a clock to beat their enemy before he can develop an economy s...

sorry for my mistake, I mustve misread something, but I do remember having am argument with my brother about improving the dutch by making their hussar shipment better, now that I think of it, it was probably 4huss -> 5 huss... but that doesnt really make much of a difference (I dont know what I am ...

Dutch only have 2 military shipments in age 2 - 3 Hussar - 8 Pikes If it were my choice, they would get some sort of crossbow shipment as well, but as it stands I can see no reason why they get such a worthless 3 Hussar card, when every other civ gets 4 Hussar card, or at least some other military s...

Either by sharing the file that the hotkeys are stored in or taking a screen shot of the hotkeys I am always looking for ways to improve my hotkeys as right now they feel kind of clunky I think that higher level players can really help out other player or even new players by providing this informati...
