Hello everyone,
Someone here was asking about the originally modified English version of the Limes. I checked the folders, and I only have the latest version.
But honestly, you surprise me.
First, it's been about 3 years, and you're still discussing the Limes.
Second, I accidentally found out what bug from Wenwell's map is being referred to, which Marlo mentioned a long time ago in his Walkthrough. This is the kind of bug that I personally categorize as "beyond good and evil."
Third, if you actually use it, it should completely change the development and Walkthrough. And in 99% of cases, the fastest strategy here won't be starting with cows or 8 attack, but starting with the glove bonus. And it's not just about the gloves, but also about the improved logistics compared to the Polish version, and, more importantly, the pass fight – they not only offer a perspective but also perfectly fit in with capturing the snake lair in the first week (capturing the city at 116). In this case, the start is the most difficult of all strategies, but by day 121, it allows you to defeat even hydras with a ballista and 5 snakes for 15k gold, although penetrating 38 archers will be more useful. And, probably, the priorities here will shift – it may turn out to be more profitable to build snakes and upgrade lizards first, instead of income buildings. And instead of generating a dragon, it will be more profitable to generate Wistan in the tavern in the first or second week (at first glance). As a result, the timings relative to the start with 10 cows will be very close, and considering the additional 300 movement points each day from the gloves, the difference will quickly disappear.
P.S. By the way, I don't see a fundamental difference between recruiting heroes in the tavern or getting morale/resistances in battle. Moreover, from the point of view of various tournament rules, the former is usually more legal.
