:play_button: GAME INFORMATION

  • GAME BUILD #: 162286
  • GAME PLATFORM: Steam
  • OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 11

:play_button: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

Thracian Hoplites don’t buff each other.

:play_button: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

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

:play_button: REPRODUCTION STEPS

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Produce 3+ Thracian Hoplites, max Smith upgrades

  2. Fought against Persian Savars without any upgrades

  3. Unupgraded Savar deals 14 damage, Thracian Hoplites have 1+2 Melee armor, having 3+ near each other should give them 1+2+3 (6) melee armor, Hoplites take 11 damage per strike from Savars, instead of the expected 8 damage.

:play_button: EXPECTED RESULT

Thracian Hoplite unit description states that the units get +1 melee armor, up to +3.

I recall Athenian and Spartan Hoplites do properly gain +3 melee armor

Sadly I quit the game to check the game version, didn’t read through the info, but it should be easy enough to test.

Got none sadly.
