Update 0.10.0 and future plans

5 de mai.

I have made several changes to the building mini-game, in order to make it less simplistic and somewhat more challenging.
I have also added a couple of unrelated options that some of you should like, especially the first.

Changes

Added an option to skip the animated rolls in individual combat.
Added an option to hide the exact numerical difficulty of checks in text events.
In the building mini-game, warning icons are shown in the last turn if the current selection is insufficient to complete the work, or if completion is possible only with a successful Bonus Production Roll.
The way Superior Quality production works has been changed: now it is more efficient in the first quadrant of the work progression. In the second quadrant it is still slightly better than it was in the previous version of the game. In the third and fourth quadrants it gets worse and worse.
The option to "push your men to work faster" can be used at full efficiency only a limited number of times. If your century has good Endurance, more uses are available. When they are all used up, the production increment becomes less and less beneficial.
The Troop's Opinion cost of the "push your men to work faster" option has been changed. The first use costs 2 points, a little less than before, but the price increases with each further use up to a maximum of 6 points.
Tooltips have been added to the panels showing Attributes and Skills in the character/century summaries. Another unrelated tooltip has ben added to the cohort status panel of the battle UI.
A hint panel has been added to the Combat UI.
Other small UI changes and improvements.

About the future

After the release of version 0.9.1 at the beginning of April, I started working on the continuation of the story in parallel with the changes I made for the two most recent updates, but there is still a long way to go. For now, I have implemented the transition to the new legion and century in my local copy, with all the particulars that had to be handled, and I have began building the details of part 11.

I can tell you with certainty that the next chapters won't be released one by one, that would be way too disruptive of the player's experience. At the moment, the idea I am most keen on is to release them in two installments made of several chapters each, when they are ready. It is difficult to make an accurate estimate, but it is safe to assume it should take at least several months before the first of such installments is published.

PLZ ADD META PROGRESSION

Yes we are pretty strong on our own just from normal play but our troops still struggle. I would add faster training rate if we made X accomplishment. PLZ. Replaying just hoping for a better outcome isn't very fun but replaying knowing this time will be better is....

About meta progression

A lot of you are asking me to introduce meta progression. I have decided to write this post to respond to these requests and hopefully to make my perspective and intentions clear, as you deserve. While my opinion that meta progression would not fit in a game like this--which, unlike A Legionary's Life, was never designed to include it--has not changed, I am willing to reconsider this matter when the game content is finished and many players are more familiar and comfortable with its mechanics. *If*, by t...

Update 0.9.2

22 de abr.

Today's minor update is mainly about a couple of fixes.

Counters related to a specific type of mini-event should not be carried over when abandoning the current game and starting a new one. Fortunately, this did not affect any positive mini-events in the current version of the game, only a negative one, but it would definitely have affected future content.
The list of recently used events should be properly cleared when abandoning a game and immediately starting a new one.
At the end of the seventh chapter you can move up two ranks instead of just one if you meet the requirements. The ranks that can be attained do not include that of Pilus Prior, which, just as before, becomes available at the end of the following chapter.
Fixed a spelling error in the tenth chapter.

Certainly scratches that itch A Legionary's Life left, I like some of the design changes like assigning points at the start instead of rolling for them, or the new stances in individual combat

Needs more events in between chapters, I keep seeing the same "I will pay you for less work" event every chapter, or the results of it, but the game is still in development and I certainly expect them coming

Maps. We need maps to show where we are in the Gaul or around Rhine for some context. History is interesting enough to read but without maps or which tribe I'm fighting in which part of France, I keep glancing over names without reading. Or the troop movements in a battle, which flank fell back, which advanced etc

Squares. I'm sure a sizeable people playing this game watched channels like Historia Civilis, videos like The Battle of Alesia. Squares give me joy. The UI has enough place to show some red squares fighting. Also Battle of Alesia was a bit short for how much of an epic feat it was

Needs a handheld tutorial century combat... Maybe the mock battle at the start that we make through events. There are more variables here than a frp and it's so convulated. I like the system though it was hard to follow at first few hours. Only cheating and editing my stats could I finally understand how turns or rounds work, or why I never got to attack

I was an original player of Legionary's Life and a big fan. I saw a lot of reviews trying to compare this to it, and I was originally kind of scared. After playing, this has to be one of my favorite games. If you're coming in expecting Legionary's Life, you probably will not be happy. BUT, I am a giant fan of the mechanics and immersion in this game. At first, the combat may seem clunky or foreign, but after a few hours I started to pick up on it, and I really enjoy the pacing of the combat. That combined with the storytelling and setting makes this an amazing pick up in my opinion.

Strange difficulty spikes

I don't know if it is intentional, but when you are besieged after England invasion, the difficulty suddenly spikes a lot. Ordinary legionaires don't stand a chance in the single combats. It is pretty weird that the same Gauls you've faced before suddenly become supersoldiers? Part of it is likely that all the siege events skill checks have a much higher difficulty than previous skill checks. As I've trained broadly all skills for my legion, I fail all of them, because their skills are only around 40. Th...

Update 0.9.1

1 de abr.

Before diving into the details of this update, I'd like to take the chance to thank all those of you who have been supporting me. The resources of a solo developer are very limited, and this activity is possible only with the backing and encouragement of the players.

Changes

You can give nicknames to your staff and notable legionaries.
The complex tooltips of some battle stats have been divided into two sections, a summary with a concise description and the details. This way, a new user should be able to learn the basics without having to get into the complex technicalities.
Same as above for the tooltips of Recompact and Encourage, available during Lulls, and for most individual combat actions.
The tutorial page that explains the battle stats (Cohesion, Front, etc.) has been simplified.
A few more hints have been added to help the players gain their bearings and get the gist of the game.
The Minimum Goal for battles has been renamed to Primary Goal.
Successfully evading the battle in the eighth chapter is no longer counted as a failed Primary Goal.
If you don't save and exit during a battle when you have the opportunity, the game is autosaved now. The save and exit function is there in case you have to stop playing in the middle of a battle, since they can be long. The new autosave is there to provide a backup just in case of technical problems and similar issues before the battle is over.
In the building mini-game, successful bonus production rolls are highlighted in green.
In the foraging mini-game, the messages informing you that additional supplies were found by a specific individual are also highlighted.
When a special Order is selected, but the overall Commitment of both formations is too low for a clash to happen, an icon warns that player that the Order will be ignored.
