Error in C3M2 walkthrough.

Unread postby DigitalMocking » 05 Oct 2006, 00:20

"One is now blocked by a stack of Colossus just beside your town, and the Orange hero will not land here unless you cleared the shore for them."

Imagine my surprise on week 1, day 5 when 2 orange armies landed, killed the collosus and then kicked my butt.

This is 1.3, normal difficulty.

Well the walktroughs were written for previous versions,so any changes introduced by 1.3 arent there.

Maltz had written that he was done updating the C3 M1 - 3 guides for 1.3

I just started it over a few times and it never happened again, maybe just a weird glitch.

Been a while since I did that map, but I seem to remember proximity of your hero having alot to do with it. If your hero was only about 1 day's march from the enemy, they might just charge you. If you're well clear, they'll sail around and cause no problems.

Thanks for the info. I will change the walkthrough.
When I played in 1.3 heroic on this mission, the orange hero attacked me after I cleared this stack some time on week 2.

I think what happens is that the Collossus is sort of an obstacle for Orange landing, but once cleared he sees a big fat opening near your town to land. But after awhile he just finds another spot anyways.

On heroic the orange player comes around day 19 or 20 regardless of the colossus being there or not.

On hard and below, he never lands where the colossus are unless your hero is close to his ship when on land.

He'll still come via the other landing spot, but not until much later in the campaign.

Thanks for the info. That sounds about right. In my 1.3 heroic game they came earlier than day 19-20, though.

Played on normal, no patch, orange landed with the colossus there...
