    Changes to land battle page
    ClarkUndead1

    Hey Jrooksjr, you changed back my changes on the Land Battles page that were either made to be updated to the current update, or incorrect and proven by numerous sources that are cited on this wiki. I also added some more in-depth information about the types of units, I dont see what was wrong with this? For example, in the article it says "If you can, recruit many Steam Giants. If not then go for Hoplites as they both serve as your front line." This is not 100% accurate, as it is all situational depending on the battle. A better way to explain the font line strategy would be "Steam giants are units that are betting for waving tactics, but if waving is not being using, Hoplites are the better option." ~Folay, former SPORK General and current HH member(NY)

      Thats all good, I intened to use the wiki as a go-to source for my alliances rather than typing out a whole large paragraph for them, so I will be adding things here and there, especially to sea battles...that page needs some help.....but anyways, It is good to know that there is someone on this wiki who is making sure that it isnt vandalised, your doing a good job.

      Yeah I separated Land Battle and Sea Battle from a page originally called Battle.

      But, I personally do not fight so I have no experience to fill in the required information for the Sea Battle page.

      Thanks!!

      I appreciate it greatly, as I know that the translator program does an ok job -- but nothing beats an actual living translator of the language.

      Again I say Thanks!

    James, what do you think of putting the release dates of the worlds here in Ikariam Wiki too?

      I have thought about it but I had 2 reasons as to why I have not done so:

      1. I did not want to appear to be copying your wiki changes
      2. I do not think I have the room for them using 3 columns, for those that have/had Speed/Test servers.

      Eu tenho pensado sobre isso, mas eu tive dois motivos pelos quais eu não tenha feito isso:

      1. Eu não queria parecer estar copiando as suas alterações wiki
      2. Eu não acho que eu tenho o lugar para eles usando três colunas, para aqueles que têm/tiveram Velocidade/Teste de servidores.

      reply to #4

      I am extremely sorry. I searched the in-game help and found out that the information you deleted was the correct one. The other links are the misleading ones. (These links with the misleading information are point at this wiki. They are part of http://ikariam.wikia.com)

      If you want, I will edit the erraneous information of the misleading links with the correct one.

      As regard of the Firing order on the Land Battle page, it is indeed correct. No doubt about that in the first place. But this is about the firing order amongst "formations". It doesn't demonstrates/explains the sequence of every formation's "victims" separately.

      For example, Hoplites belong to the Front Line Formation and so, according to the above correct chart, they are programmed to fire 5th in order. When it is time for them to engage in battle, first they will attack enemy's Front Line. If this is depleted, then they will go for the Long Range Line. If this is depleted too, they will head for the Artillery. And if this also falls in battle, they will finally go for the flanks.

      So the Attack Sequence of Front Battle Line Units, like Hoplites, is:

      Front Battle Line → Long Range Battle Line → Artillery → Flanks

      If you check the in-game help, you will better understand what I am trying to tell. I see I am not good to explain this well, probably because I didn't "get" it so far. Neither am I offensive player. To be honest I have never battled an opponent. :)

      In any case, please accept my apologies for the unnecessary trouble that I caused.

      The good news is that I did not delete anything, I just went through and remmarked the information, using < !-- and the -- >, so that it was not visible on the page but was still there if you edited the page.

      I will undo my change and let you make any corrections.

      Do not feel bad, you did not do anything wrong, you asked a question and I could not answer it so we did what was best at the time until you found the answer that was needed.

      I have been experimenting with the new loading scripts that Wikia has publish for all to use - It works fine for SCRIPTS, but not so good on CSS.

      Kewl and thanks for showing us how to find it

      I found it on one of my towns that had a building under construction - line 745 or so

      AND found out that the Yearly events (per the notes in Gameforge's code) are not implemented in Version 5 yet -- They set aside space to add them back in just before the Building " Upgrade " event timers are figured

      That is what you call a typo made by an Crazy, Old (42 year old) American who thinks he knows exactly what he is doing and copies and pastes the mistake all they way down through all of the tables.

      Isso é o que você chama um erro de digitação feita por um louco, velho (42 anos) norte-americano que pensa que sabe exatamente o que ele está fazendo e cópias e cola o erro todo o caminho eles para baixo através de todas as tabelas.
