Hey!

I would like to announce that me and WorldSaviour want to play another game which is not the official tournament.

We want to play this Sunday, in the evening (maybe 8 PM CET, maybe earlier?). The map will be The Nile or The Dolomites. Depends on World's mood face-wink.png .

If there are other people who wants to play the game with us, please feel free contact us or just write here.

So, we changed the plan a little bit. We'll already start the match, but at 8pm we're going to save it, close it and continue it with the spectators. It could be even good for spectators as the rather boring beginning (?) will be skipped.

I also expected spectators in my first game with Einstein, but nobody was there face-wink.png

That's a pity. But that can also be an advantage for you, as too much Widelands can be a waste of time sometimes face-wink.png

WorldSavior should have a winner belt of Widelands now!

He showed his best on this game! You can download replays here: wuatek.no-ip.org/~rak/widelands/WorldSavior_Einstein_Revenge.zip

So what were my mistakes?

  • Long time of wood problem
  • Not enough thinking about iron and coal (at the beginning)
  • Beer problem ( face-grin.png )
  • Grain (farm) problem

And when I finally cope with all of those problems, I spot WorldSavior. Then I tried to make my best to win with him, but I made huge mistake: I haven't noticed that all my coal mines aren't working at all! I had (new to me) miners problem. After 30 minutes (I estimate that, not checked) I have noticed this problem and I have fixed that. But it was too late to make any big difference. So I lost all other things.

Even this, I feel also a winner: I established a working soldiers economy in the shortest time on this map. face-smile.png Unfortunatelly the rest wasn't ready, so after a while I spot some errors and warnings. face-grin.png

For me it was a great game! I enjoyed it much, even I lost with him. Thanks, World, for playing! Looking towards to your game with king! If you win with him too, I propose to have a union with king against you face-tongue.png We have to save the world from YOU! face-grin.png face-tongue.png

And some words about the map:

There are major differences between v1 and v2 of The Nile map. I thought there would be almost none, but they are. On v1 you expand much slower and I don't know exactly why. I could play for 4 hours of gametime and haven't spot the enemy. Here I spot WorldSavior after about 2 hours. It is quite fast. Also mountain pass is wider. For sure it makes more possibilities to make there an economy which I don't like.
I could change the map, but I will not do that. Why? Because it would be not fair to all of players who likes that! face-wink.png In the future I will fix 2 things on the map, because they are bugs:

  • red player don't have coal on the 4th mountains in both directions
  • there is one place where barbarians can't expand because of far distance between "sand islands"

If you have time, you can message me. But I don't have much time neither, so I cannot promise a match, and probably I have to recover from an overdose of Widelands...

Thanks face-grin.png

Actually I could have expanded faster instead of aiming for a third or fourth pair of labyrinths and dungeons face-wink.png

You're also most welcome. I also liked the match

After watching the replay I realized, that at the end your soldiers production was a bit broken. Not every dungeon & labyrinth were working. Of course it was nothing against my loses. I codun't win anyway. face-smile.png
