John Osterman (?sp) seemed to indicate that using different Versions would result in battle replay inconsistency. Perhaps that is the explanation.

I have feeling that it's battle report which is wrong, not the replay. For example, in one battle I had won with only 2 mercs left (of some weak variety). Usually these mercs rout way before they all get killed, so I can't realy imagine a scenario in which it would it be possible to win with only 2 of them remaining (opposition consisted of some indy forces). Replay was showing my mercs retreating pretty quickly after losing few comrades. And I had few other battles with weird results. Everytime, development in the replay looks quite logical and probably, but battle report sometimes produce results which I couldn't interprete at all (meaning that I couldn't imagine how the battle would have to be going to produce such results - as in that example with 2 mercs left).

Alexti,

I actually have a scenario in which I could have won that. My serpent dancers all radiate powerful fear, and I had a good number of them in the battle. You by contrast had no priests. I had those cute little poison slingers. And my sauromancers were casting terror.

If your longbowmen were terrorized.... All I mean to say is that the outcome we got was possible. Not likely but possible. I lost a number of high defense serpent dancers there by the way. Not that they are equal to your giants.

I do consider that I may be wrong, but the hosting may have worked properly. I don't think we can know.

That was very likely what happened, especially considering that I've got my army almost intact in the neighbour province which indicates that they've probably fled very promptly. One which was looking impossible to me was the one with 2 mercs left.

After everyone voted, the midnight thing kindof fell off. I cant come up with anything simple for switching from quick to midnight without a chance of more stales.

So its still in quick mode and will process as soon as... [checking]... Pythium does a turn

[aldin]

Can anyone tell me if Pythium's taken the turn yet?
