Looks promising. Hopefully, the implementation and execution will go smoothly. And hopefully, the update and fixes will work.

Don't get me wrong I'm very excited. I just thought the alliance wars was coming with industrial age so I was a bit confused.

Finally. This ai fix sounds like I can return to using a regular army, instead of 95 british archers. And this economy booster...maybe that will help the farms and caravans I was upgrading originally to quit. And a new campaign to complete, that will be good...

That doesnt even begin to address all the AI issues. Wall miners that dont explode. Cavalry that dont path correctl(separate from their wall problems)

We already knew all of this. You released a patch with this content weeks and weeks ago, you can view it all in the game, you just can't use it yet. What we want to know is WHEN will it arrive?

Sounds good but ....

If some players go into Industry age and with few planes, it is going to kill a lot of enlightment base or gp base with ease ...

Great news, but I'm joining The Prince on his comment.
How do we stop planes if we're not in Industrial age ?

Maybe our defensive towers can be effective against those new units.

We will see.
I will be very attentive to th new AI too. In my way, it's the most important thing that need to be updated.

Wall miners don't explode. They just are killed quickly because they are so close to enemy fences.

You can't stop planes until you get to Industrial Age. This will motivate a lot of players to get off their asses and age up quick! Also means more $$$ for BHG!
 

This game is laggy

Welp, took BHG 1.5 months to acknowledge that there are issues with the AI.

Quite a few things are missing from the list of AI issues, but we'll see about that.

Well the planes have 3500 health and lvl 8 tower does about 250dmg per second so shouldn't be to bad.
