I've reworked the charts and I will release a new version to let you try it (I haven't)...
Including bug-fixes...
Infantry, Warships and Galley will have fire values at the first techs...Originally posted by Gathenhielm
Sure I can try it, but I dont really know what to look after
The first question:
Is it balanced?
Updates in Independent Europe v 1.53: (Only availible at my site)
- Corrected a bug where any nation could get upper german culture by random event
- Corrected a bug which allowed Brabant to get middle german culture several times
- Gave Münster and Oldenburg the swedish blue-yellow sprites, like the rest of the low germans
- Reworked the combat charts and introduced a fire-phase for early tech (affects infantry, warships and galleys)
If you don't like the new changes to fire-phases at earlier techs, just delete the files land.csv and naval.csv in the Independent\Db-folder, and don't forget to tell me (I'd like to know)...

I have tested a litte:
Infantary versus cavalry when the infantary unit is attacked in rough terrain (not plains): Here has the infantary been stronger, the same goes for a infantary+cavalry attacking an infantary unit in rough terrain.
Infantary+Cavalry versus Infantary+Cavalry in all terrains: Nothing special here, biggest unit wins.
Cavalry versus Infantary+Cavalry in plains: Cavalry is not very effected by the fire, cavalry wins.
Also noticed: A unit with infantary that is heavily outnumbered usually reatreats right away instead of being massacred, without infantary it gets massacred.

Announcment:
- It looks like the 1559-scenario is quite bugged, and after trying it myself it looks like it has something to do with merchants coming up at the first date each month. (Reported crashes are 30th June, July and October (for me))
-- End of Announcment --
@ beeznees
What scenario did you play when it CtD?
If it was the 1559-scenario, play the 1419...
If it was the 1419-scenario, are there any specific crash-dates?
@ Hajji Giray I
Have you tried the method I presented, did it give any results (concerning the none-cultures in southern France)?
@ Gathenhielm
Looks good, no serious effects, but enough to make leader-fire something...

kaigon,
i was playing the 1559 scenario and never even gave the 1459 scenario a try. i'll have a go w/ it in a bit quick. i'll also play the 1559 scenario to see dates of crashes, but it was often for me, seemed like i got through 2 months then, forget it, was unplayable, i'd reload then be lucky to make it through the first month.
i'll report back in a few

kaigon,
tried 1419 scenario and it played just fine. no crashes, tried various speeds, placed merchants, declared war, disbanded troops, etc.
however, playing 1559 scenario was MUCH less stable. didnt even get out of normal speed. btw i am using earliest version w/ latest beta patch, 23rd.
playing as bristol, my first crash was sept. 1559 while fighting battle in bristol w/ wales (was also at war w/ lincoln). reloaded to may b4 war. built troops, placed merchants, crashed again oct.
reloaded to b4 crash oct. this might be most interesting, no one declares war on me, of course most other countries at war, getting anexed etc. i prepare to att midlands, however, game crashes exactly nov 30. i reload to early nov. game crashes again nov 30. reload, game crashes again nov 30. it doesnt crash the instant it hits nov. 30, it crashes the instant it should turn over to dec. 1st.
hope that helps, but it seems 1559 scenario is unstable. and there is no getting by nov 30 it seems.

just realized you released 1.53. i believe i am using 1.52. if 1.53 is only available at your website, then i definately have 1.52 as i downloaded file at forums here.
i found a few more countries that have incorrect cultures. poltava has russian while it should not and bogujatar (sp?) has ruthenian while is should not. they are very close to each other, and i think you thought they bordered. i will look at all of the countries later to see if there are anymore with incorrect cultures

You shouldn't check for culture errors during the game, only jut when you've started...
It is fully possible for them to get more cultures as the game goes (random events), therefore it's only a bug IF this was right at the start of a scenario OR if they have a culture that doesn't border to their capital province (2 borderprovinces are not needed, only 1)...

1) i thought the rule was that you the culture of your capital plus any culture that appears twice on your borders
2) what is the event? i've never gotten it.

1) Yes, that's the START rule...
2) It's a simple random event, but there's only one copy of it, so you might play a complete game without getting it... Ultimately you can have all cultures that you have CB-shields on, have a look at Galizien I think they can get totally 4 cultures...
These events are located in Independent\Db\Events\freevents.txt but they won't tell you much...
Hi,
Kaigon, I've just downloaded your IE Scenario, and it looks like being great fun. However, due my being fairly stupid where computers are concerned, I don't understand your instructions for creating shortcuts to the eu2.exe file and things... Could you try and explain it in a way that dumb people like me can understand please?
Many thanks,
Marius of Britannia.
