Actualización para el Forge of Freedom
Publicado: 22 Abr 2009, 14:53
Guapos, que Matrix sube actualización para el Forge of Freedom.
http://www.matrixgames.com/news/572/For ... d.Improved!
Dicen que los arreglos se basan en la demanda de los jugones. Entre otras novedades, se corrige el bug que existía con la concesión de VP en la ocupación de ciudades, se arregla la concesión de VP en las batallas decisivas y se otorga a la Confedereación punto de victoria por una batalla ganada a la Unión en una provincia unionista.
Suma además 10 nuevas habilidades a las unidades, y corrige diversos asuntos de la batalla detallada, sobre todo en la llegada de refuerzos y en la decisión de combate, además incluye nuevas habilidades y biografías de generales hasta un total de 300.
La duda es que la publicación de este nuevo impulso quizá supone que el Forge of Freedom no contará con una versión remozada tipo el CoG: Emperor's edition.
El listado de mejoras en inglés, sacado del foro de Matrix.
