Default 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.

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 =)

Sounds like a personal problem to me, soldier.

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.

That's fine... and I realized I did, in fact, get a battle report that said the enemies losses.

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?

I was just thinking that myself, but then I thought about it and laughed:
the term for a female dog is "*****"

I suppose he's scared of the FCC!

A female dog is a '*****'. So he's saying "more *****ing", which many people find offensive.
