Re: starts with C vs. ends with heim
The reason it annoys people so much, and is consequentially labeled a bug, is that most of the time it is the *good* scales that you dont get, so you end up with a lot less income than you would otherwise.

Re: starts with C vs. ends with heim
So I guess this game is currently stalled on the "disappearing scales bug".
I guess I'll just meditate upon my strategy.

Re: starts with C vs. ends with heim
When I get some free time tomorrow, I will try out some other R'lyeh pretenders and see if I can get one without the scale bug. If not, then I will probably change nations.

Re: starts with C vs. ends with heim
In my test universes R'lyeh often climbs in the "provinces" charts even without hiring mercenaries. It seems to capture its first province by attacking on turn 2 or turn 3 sometimes! So I think there must be some combination of R'lyeh national troops that is effective.

Re: starts with C vs. ends with heim
P.S. I know that the scale bug is a mostly separate issue from the Triton-bait issue. Just chatting.

Re: starts with C vs. ends with heim
Oh, I know! Redesign your nation and take all bad scales, spending the points on other things. Then if you hit the bug which turns off your scales you'll be happy about it!

Re: starts with C vs. ends with heim
Yeah, except the bad scales always seem to work. It is the good ones that are lost.
Anyway, I redesigned my pretender and checked it out. It seemed to be working fine. Alneyan cheched it also and did not see the bug on his computer. It therefore appears to be a bugged Pretender. So - don't use the Void Lurker!
The game has begun once again.
