:arrow_forward: GAME INFORMATION

  • GAME BUILD #: 101.101.45185.0 6215101
  • GAME PLATFORM: Steam
  • OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 10

:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

Since the hotfix that happened an hour or two ago, burgundian Hand Cannoneers and Bombard Cannons have +125 attack damage. (similar to byzantine fire ship issue)

How does this happen??? This is completely unacceptable. Why do you not playtest the patches you release…

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Start a game, select Burgundians
  2. advance to imperial age, research Chemistry
  3. create hand cannoneer and/or bombard cannon
  4. description says +125 attack
  5. try attacking an enemy unit or building, you deal so much dmg you kill them almost instantly

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

You shouldn’t have +125 attack on hand cannoneers or bombard cannons

Since this is affecting both Byz fire ships and Burgundian gunpowder units, it might be affecting more things, anything with a % damage or attack speed boost?

Tatar hill attack bonus and Japanese infantry / Ethiopian archers are all I can come up with off the top of my head, I can’t really play the game properly to check myself at the moment

I tested as many things as I could, nothing else seems affected, stuff like Spanish gunpowder or Burmese infantry all are fine.

I mean I guess there is a positive to getting constant crashes, I never got to enjoy getting flattened by Lithuanian jedi knights and probably won’t get to experience being flattened by Burgundian nuclear hand cannons

Sure appreciate you guys. I really just thought the mega hand cannon stuff was kinda funny, but I don’t play ranked that often.
