Second, they now can only charge non-lights if the latter physically occupy Rough/Difficult terrain.
First, Light Troops will now always evade non-lights unless defending in Rough/Difficult terrain or behind an obstacle. This means things like improved naming conventions for generals from third tier countries, improved visibility for wording depending on light or dark background and slightly increased effectiveness of Asian crossbows against foot.īut there are three big changes, two concerning probably the most under-rated and under-appreciated class of troops in the entire system, Light Troops. Here there are seven changes and like elsewhere, some are minor. I count 34 different mods and fixes across several functional areas, to include campaigns, modding, AI, and most importantly: gameplay. I know a lot of folks tend to ignore these with an attitude of ‘the changes can’t be that important.” Well, yes they can.
However, as noted, 14 December was not only about TTM, but also saw the release of the 1.5.3 update as well. Paul A has taken yet another massive step beyond that, so let’s take a look at not only the results, but what he does to get there. Vanilla FOG2 is heavy on the concept anyway as it is a direct port of miniature wargaming rules into computer wargaming, with the author of the former and the designer of the latter the same person Richard Bodley Scott. It’s the difference between numbers and feel in gaming, and let’s face it, were this not important then all Ancients video gaming could easily be done using map graphics and symbology from the old SPI PRESTAGS board gaming system. If correctly done and historically accurate they can add an ambience that pushes the player closer to a reality that actually puts him or her at the battle vice looking at a screen. TTM is the primary focus of this article because visuals are important. How massive? Well, when released back on 14 December last year it was big enough to warrant front page inclusion on the Matrix Website, so pretty damn big. Bottom line is that the Field of Glory II (or FOG2) Ancients computer game not only has a substantial new update, but also a massive new Tabletop Mod (TTM) revision from Paul Adaway. Sometimes I do forget to put transfer images on the website so if you know I make something for a manufacturer but can’t find it please let me know.Īlways feel free to contact me with suggestions and for updates on future new releases, or subscribe to our Newsletter when you register an account.The Boss often raises an eyebrow or two about my obsession with visuals, so when I got the green light for this article, I jumped before he could change his mind. The range is expanding all the time with new designs appearing nearly every week. The work I do is extremely detailed and combines history and artistry in miniature. I cover periods from Ancient to Medieval to Napoleonic covering shields and flags. There are thousands of different transfer sheets for you to choose from in 28mm, 20mm, 15mm and 10mm sizes.
VICTRIX TRANSFERS that I make are only sold on the Victrix Website You can view my complete range of transfers in one place. Sometimes up to 10 to 14 days.Īlso please take into account that there may be extra delays due to the UK leaving the EU and may cause some customs hold ups so please allow extra time due to customs and Covid. Please be aware that due to Covid and lockdowns I am receiving a very large increase in orders and so orders are taking a lot longer to get sent out.
