Post by Squamiger »

Anything new emerging? Is House of Braganca worth sending for Ports now? Are those weird Spanish Age 1 crates worth sending? Anyone have a grenadier build order?

India's new Age 3 card gives infantry a double multiplier.
Gives heavy infantry a triple multiplier.

@Miyawaki Sakura it's not a new card, it's Royal Green Jackets. It is supposed to give only +1 multiplier vs heavy infantry to reach 3x heavy inf. If it indeed give an additional multiplier to all infantry, it should be reported as a bug on the official forums.

Not a bug
I did an experiment to check the card performance
We have confirmed that Gurkha has a double multiplier against infantry
and six multiplier against heavy infantry too

Does the card description match the multipliers? Is the card description different from RE?

@Miyawaki Sakura you may call it an issue instead of a bug, but still it's not supposed to be in game, as it comes out of nowhere and has no justification.

I think it is meant so that India remains a strong infantry civ and forces EURO civs to use and win the cannon war VS india rather than just out spam them with inf.... its not really a good balance chance though.

It's just a bug, it is not listed in the balance changes.
