:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.
Cards that send cattle and at the same time increase the maximum cattle limit for some reason are blocked when I have the previous maximum cattle.

Example:
The cowboy card sends 8 cows and increases the cow creation limit by 8, but if by any chance I have the 30 cows created, the card is blocked preventing me from increasing the cow limit and denying me the 8 new cows of the shipment.

The original limit is 30 and with the card it would be 38 but instead of sending the cows and increasing the limit, the card is blocked.

:point_down: How often does the issue occur? CHOSE ONE; DELETE THE REST!
100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

:point_down: List CLEAR and DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue ourselves… Be descriptive!

  1. Use a revolution.
  2. Create the maximum of cows
  3. Not being able to send the cards of cowboys, grenadiers on horseback and the like.

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

Cards that send cattle and increase the cattle creation limit should not be blocked when you have the current maximum cattle.

There is something that I do not know if it is a mistake, but the cowboy card increases the cow limit only by 8 in theory it should increase the cow limit by 10 in order to maximize the number of cows in the pen.

Thanks for your report, we’re now tracking this issue internally.

Warning, this problem has not been solved yet. :neutral_face:

image
Cattle Drivers: Ships 8 semi-fattened Cows, 1 Gaucho, and 1 Homestead Wagon; Cow train limit +8

image
Granaderos: Ships 10 Cows and 10 Mounted Granaderos; Cow train limit +10; Mounted Granaderos can be trained at Stables, Forts, Tavern, and Galleons; Incendiary Grenades available at Arsenal

These cards are blocked if the cow limit is met. :neutral_face:

its the same with unit cards.
I guess its intendet.

6

No, it is not. :expressionless:

7

okay if you say so.
Still, it would allow you to explode the existing cap. I cant see where that should not be the intendet behaviour (that it is blocked)

Because in addition to giving you cows, it also increases the construction limit of the cows, making it pointless to block the card, also normally you would not consume the cows before they get fat and for the revolutions that food is extremely important.

Actually I say it and a developer confirmed it to me, otherwise I would not have said that they would tracking this issue internally.
