In the next update the 1/3 rule will be ignored when you attack with 1.800 or more troops. The maximum battle time depends on the smaller army only: with 1.800 troops you get ~80 minutes, to get the maximum of 3 hours you would need ~9.300 troops with the current formula.

It finally happens! I dont even... thats a huge step.!
Thanks for that!

I'm happy to hear that but also very sad that we had to wait that much to just hear that the people was right.


Also not holding my breath for the big update as long as there is no ETA.

There won't be a big update, from my side just some changes i was working on here and there in the past weeks for strat update #2. As for ETA, it should happen in week or two. I want to finish a few more things, but if i don't get around to those we will just release what we got so far (after some clean-up and testing).

The goal of Strategus battles shouldnt be to deprive your enemies of players, but to have full roster both sides and have the gear/tactics/strategy win the day rather than lack of merc support.

Does this herald the dawn of a reset though? :O

A reset will most likely come, but we don't have a date yet. First we need to finish the site integration/refactoring old code, then if there is time we can think about adding new features/improving existing mechanics. New stuff would most likely be tested on current data before doing the reset.

Personally I believe the update happen just a few hours ago when the site went down. You would be crazy to not be prepared for the changes right this second anyway. Cant wait, all hell will break lose and especially on EU side of things  :shock:

Thanks Harald we love you!

Like Harald said, its one of the step toward it, but it will be tested on the current round.

New Strat will definitely need some major changes, otherwise you'll lose last players after wipe. :(

Go to c-rpg.net
click on the strategus tab
the general tab

at the bottom you can see "Update #1"
Under is a list of the change log.
When "update #2" is added I'm sure you will see the change log there
