Our bilingual friends announced that in german forum was mentioned some change wih number of squads one knight can controll, did I got it right?

Frank Fay or Frujin, please can you answer how it is now. We know that one knight-marshall could controll 9squads of soldiers or siege equipment. Can you explain please what had changed if there is some change?

thanks:cheers:

- I try to translate franks statement 1:1

An army will have 9 slots for the units and additional some for the siege equipment. So units don't compete anymore with the siege equipment.

The max. number of siege equipment in an army isn't already defined, the same with the number of units per group / max. Army.

- I hope it's possible to understand this

Thanks for pointing out that this statement was expressed unclearly. I updated the post in the What's new-thread.

I'm going to sum all statements up when some more pile in ;) .

that's okay, Angryminer. I'm not so skilled in english, as you can see many times, so I better ask once more to ensure.

btw, can anybody tell us which numbers are being considered for soldiers per squad?
around 50? over 60? over 100?

I would say 25-40, because i think Frank once said, that we can have a max. number of soldiers which is around 2000.

And 2000/9/9 = 25

I think this is not so much, so I suppose somthing between 30 and 40.

there can be 9 knights in a battle? I thought that it's 2-4, so I prefere counting 2000/4/9=55,5 so somewhere between 50 and 60

No I think we missunderstand us...

I thought that this 2000 is the unit linit....

But if you are right, that it is the limit of units in a battle then you can forget my numbers...

I thought: limit/max. knights/squads

I thought that limit of 2000 is not how many soldiers a kingdom can have, but how many sooldiers can engage one battle.

Maybe the devs should make it clear now?

I also understood it like a max. of 2000 units on the battlefield

I think its 2000 per battle as well, 2d in all.

Dev's could you swing in here and clear this up?:D
