more female doggin\'
 
I'm playing jotun in the apocalypse game at mosen.

I dont understand how I can be beaten by a stronger military force when i watch the battle and i see that my enemies army has routed. that just doesn't make sense to me.

in a SP game i wouldn't get very frustrated with it but i have the feeling that every little thing counts in a MP game.

<sigh>

Sometimes the battle replay is incorrect. It's a bug.

Yeah, I had a similar thing in the same game. An enemy player attacked me... report said I won with no casualties (didn't show enemy casualties), but the replay showed all of my toops running away.

I know it's a bug with the replay, but the problem I have now, is that I don't know what the attacker's casualties are...

The turn report doesn't tell me... and I'm not sure how to interpret the replay.

So how do I know whether to counter-attack?

You think *that's* bad ?
I constantly have this problem where both the battle report AND the playback show me losing when I am pretty sure I won =)

The battle replay bug is a known bug: You're playing on Windoze machine, and Mosen is a Linux machine: The battle replays are often incorrect when the hosting machines differ because of a compiler issue that was recently discovered to be the cause of the incompatibility. Either pray that this is fixed next patch, get used to it always being wrong when cross-platforming, or play with whatever OS the host uses.

well Its not a big deal if the bug is merely something cosmetic as a battle playback. I think i can get over that.

But just for clarification... the replay bug affects whether the outcome is displayed correctly, but not the units present at the start, right? So I can at least know that if the battle report says 3/3 commanders killed, then the 3 commanders present at the start of the replay are now dead?

What is 'female doggin'. I have absolutely no idea what this activity has to do with the first post, I can't even come up with a reasonable guess that would fit. Is it some sort of pun or wordplay, gone above my head, is it a phrase or term coined by Snoop Dogg?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I was just thinking that myself, but then I thought about it and laughed:
the term for a female dog is "*****" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I suppose he's scared of the FCC!

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">A female dog is a '*****'. So he's saying "more *****ing", which many people find offensive.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">The battle reports are generally correct, although units which were not listed as killed can become MIA, presumed dead, if they routed from the battle, but had nowhere to go, so subsequently died. If the battle reports says 3/3 commanders killed, then yes, all of the aforementioned commanders are now dead, regardless of what the replay displays.

Geo, Arryn: ehrm, of course, pretty obvious now when you point it out. Thanks, I guess.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Don't worry about it. I'm female and it didn't bother me. I'd've said something if it had. I'm not at all shy about expressing opinions, nor about not being "politically correct", nor about not trying to win a Miss Congeniality contest (as some here would prefer).

Just be yourself. So long as you avoid being deliberately rude and/or insulting you'll be fine. (Oh, and avoid discussing politics or real-world religion, as it tends to inflame those with tender sensibilities.)
