Topic: Hello everyone. Questions from someone new to the game.

I went through the tutorials even though they are not in my language, I used Google to translate. I also did the Barbarian campaign. But my questions are ones that are not explained in the tutorials, and I did not find a guide on the site that explains..

If you really played the tutorials most of your questions should be answered. E.g. how to expand your territory.

Regarding the language... I tried to translate the game files, but there seems to be a problem and as soon as the game is set to my language (even without my attempt to translate) the game simply crashes when you start playing.

I wonder why you keep your language that secret. If the game crashes with a specific language it would be helpful to know which language crashes the game.

I haven't tried playing against real AI yet.. In the meantime, I'm just trying to understand how the game works, and playing against the very weak AI. In the games I managed to finish, I won in about 6 hours (by game time)... That seems too much to me..

I think you have expectations about the game wich it can't fulfill. Playing a game in 6hrs game time is normal, although it depends on the map.

I also don't feel like I really understand how the map works in this game... I understood that it is triangles and that at the intersections between triangles you can place a flag.. but not much more than that.. It is still a mystery to me how to maximize the area.

Understanding how the map works internally is not really helpful for playing the game.

I think it would be the best if you upload a save game here in the forum You can do this with your next post, or with the second next one.
