I wonder if IW could give us the numbers of the new limits. Just so we could do rough calculations of how big a maps we can play with Pan or Ermor.

Maximum number of units have been increased by two and maximum number of commanders by four.

By two?!! Well that won't make a lot of difference then!

[I am being a pain. I presume JO meant a factor of two.]

Zeldor · #3 June 10th, 2008, 01:55 PM

Percent? Or 2 more units and 4 more commanders?

LOL

So if I GOR 4 units I get to increase the unit limit by a whooping total of six

Edit, If indeed JO's comment refers to power of, than these indeed are great news. Old unit limit was what, 32k?- So now 1M. Very cool.

Pretty sure it's a multiplier. So if the old unit limit was 32k, it would be 64k now. Commanders now 4 times as populous.

I must say you are very optimistic if you truly believe the number of maximum commanders have been increased tenthousandfold.

In truth I have no idea how big the increase is. I was just being a jackass.

Edit: I'm also an idiot as I obviously confused factor of four with a magnitude increase of four. This is extra embarassing as I have some background in mathematics.

I just got off the phone with JK. He assures me that the limits for both units and commanders have increased by "a gazillion". His words.
