Not really sure that I know what is being discussed here? What exactly is range bug abuse? Is it a means of extending a unit's range by merging the unit with other units of the same type? If an infantry unit is merged with an armoured unit, there is no range extension. It seems to me that units that merge with other units should not have a range extension, irrespective of the types of units. Treat them all the same. I would imagine that this would be a fairly simple code change but a code change nevertheless.

There is another similar type of bug that involves transport units. In my opinion, units being transported should not be allowed to move on that turn once the unit transporting them has used all of its movement allowance. To my mind this is no different than the range bug. Again, correcting this would involve a fairly simple code change. It's all about priorities.

everything you have said here is wrong

I have been floating the idea of making a coalition with the purpose of getting the most talented people in one specific area of Afterwind:

latejoining!

I'm thinking the name would be something along the lines of "brigade" or simply "latejoiners".

Our objective as the coalition would be to create a latejoiner team capable of destroying empires and taking over maps on t5+. We would perfect latejoining techniques such as defense line spamming and taking key cities with 100+ unit stacks. I already have a strategy in mind called wall, annoy, and attack. Instead of simply sending a bunch of units at a capital, 3+ countries could completely encircle our enemies.

I strongly think that by using teamwork we could take latejoining and brigading to the next level. All members of the coalition would be expected to protect each other and join forces when latejoining world games. If I spend the SP would anyone want to join? comment below

Who cares about this 3rd world country and who runs it?

Dont care didnt watch

Looks like Trump won. When you adjust for the moderators' bias, I calculate a winning margin of ~+18% in Trump's favor. Without the adjustment, the margin is ~+7% in Trump's favor.

I think its a great idea coming from Palm. Our clan is more than willing to do it.

Did dave buy new set of hair after selling the game?

I figured that this would be a funny historical fact to add here.
In April, 1778, John Paul Jones attacked the British town of Whitehaven. He did manage to do some damage, having set fire to a ship, and having attacked two forts with no resistance, he sabotaged the cannons to help him escape safely. Since both of his ships had run out of lamp oil, he had no convenient way to burn down all of the British ships that were there(there were hundreds of merchant ships and coal transports anchored there), since the match had yet to be invented.
He had some sailors raid a public house, but they decided to get drunk instead, so he could only burn one ship.
Seriously. He would have burned all/most of the ships in Whitehaven, but his sailors got drunk on the job.
While he did manage to prove that the rebels could launch some small attacks, his plans were stunted by alcohol.
This might be the funniest thing I've heard about the American Revolution.

As the first step in our new strategy to transform atWar into a Reddit-style social media company, I've made some new forums -- check them out!

Any suggestions for other new forums we should add? Please let us know in the comments here!

I'm also realizing that there are too many forums already in some places, for example there are way too many atWar-related forums. I'm open to any suggestions for forums that we should remove, or combine.

I'm not sure if there's any room to combine the atWar forums. They each look like they all have a specific purpose that is well separated from the other forums. Combining or removing them may negatively impact the experience for new players, which may further cause issues with player retention.

Regarding the other forums, maybe new forums can be added if there is a very high demand for them. For example, if I write a book recommendation/review thread, it gets popular, and 30 other people post similar threads, maybe add a book review/recommendation forum. Really, though, I think you should replace the new forums(ignoring forum games) with tags that get added to the off-topic and forum-games threads. I wrote some ideas that I have on this in detail below.

Some website design recommendations:
If people seem to really like this, maybe make the off topic forum its own thing.
Maybe let players have an option that lets them change the community dropdown on the top, so that atWar forums and off topic forums are separate options(e.g. maybe have "forums" and "miscellaneous forums" as options. New players might prefer to look at these sides of the forums as separate things.
Note: This may be less useful if you use tags and remove some of the current other forums.

Regarding making off topic its own thing, maybe add a button to the atWar forums that take you to the other forums, and a button in the other forums that send you to the atWar forums.

A more useful option might be to make the different forum classifications collapsible with a +,- button. You can add a few db columns so that the website can store your preferences. Maybe also include a user option that disables this feature for people who don't want the forums collapsed when they get to the forums page.




My main recommendation is to add classification tags to the other forums(maybe also the atWar forums, but the forums seem to be more or less perfectly organized as is, and there wouldn't be much improvement to the preexisting forum threads, unless you were to have the mods go into each thread and manually add additional tags that would be relevant; it may plausibly improve future posts, though I doubt it. I suppose that there will need to be a tag for each existing forum so that people can search the atWar forum the way they search the other forums, and of course, the preexisting threads will need tags added to them).

Maybe restrict the number of topics to what you have now(or even remove all except for forum games and off topic, and move the current threads in the removed forums to off-topic, and add the appropriate tags), and use classification tags instead of adding new forums.

With classification tags, we can give a thread multiple classifications, allowing us to have our threads show up in more searches(e.g. I really love "The Armada" by Garrett Mattingly. If I wanted to write a book recommendation for it, that could go under book reviews or history. If book reviews become a topic, there are two places I can put it under, but people will only find my thread if they go to one of those forums. With classification tags, I can mark my new thread about his book as being under history, military history, and book reviews, meaning that someone who searches by any one of those categories would still see my post regardless).

I think that tags should work more or less like they do in stack overflow(I realize that it's a Q&A site, but the same idea applies: if you want to look at a thread about military history, search by classification tag, and you get anything about military history).

Doing this would mean that more people will read posts that fall under multiple categories, increasing the number posts and likes, and giving people a greater incentive to create new threads.

There should be a tag for everything that people are likely to write a post about. This includes all forums in the other forums right now, and then a bunch of other ones.

Maybe write a new thread asking people for all of the tags that they think should be added.

I think that the following tags should be added in addition to the ones related to the current forums:
-military history
-book reviews/recommendations
-film reviews/recommendations
-music reviews/recommendations
-uncategorized(a placeholder for preexisting off topic threads. Maybe have mods slowly add tags to them and remove that one. This would be a tag that users can't select when creating/editing a post themselves)
-probably up to a few dozen more.

Nah, Dave won't allow it

Hello,

Is it still possible to purchase exclusive weapons aka the general given when premium is given? If not, is there anyway someone can obtain them without having to buy the entire premium package?

Thanks in advance!

No I don't think so.
