Pug surrenders in round 3 to Ajmdemen.

FYI to everyone,

one of our tourney members (hepster) decided to update the visuals for the 270BC map

there are no changes to the game setup or rules, it is a visual update only
(it won’t break your savegames either)

download it to see the difference!

because of the holidays, games might slow down, etc, so please allow your opponents the benefit of the doubt if they do not post for a while

Are we supposed to use the new 1.6.1.4 to finish our current games?

@SantaClaus:

I don’t think you are supposed to use it. I think this kind of tournament game could be a bad place to suddenly try a new version of a game engine.

I might play the current tournament games with the old engine and start new games with the new engine.

That said, thanks Veqryn of the new version! Interesting new features. I guess I was not the only one forgetting to move a sub or whatever somewhere :D

It is up to you and your opponent, because if one of you starts using 1.6.1.4, then both of you have to.
This is because 1.6.1.4 can load savegames from 1.6.1.2, but 1.6.1.2 can not load savegames from 1.6.1.4

1.6.1.4 is stable though, so I would recommend everyone download it and start using it immediately (including for all their currently running games).

Alex kind of gets upper hand against AmorphousCube in Napoleon game. Bit prematurely in Rd 41, though  :wink:

It was a phantastic ride, thx to a great fellow player as well.

I like 270BC and wouldn’t mind revisiting it in the future.
