[LiarFox]

Hi all,
Pride of Nations has been updated!


Check the entire changelog below

Pride of Nations 1.04.5 Changelog
Extra fixes on events chains:
- US Civil war. Is now a normal occuring event from early 1861. Has a 10% per turn, so retains some variability.
- Indian Mutiny. Fixed some conditions on province ownerships and is now working as expected. India will be fully British if the mutiny is crushed.
- Crimean War: simplified and fixed the potential AI/human controlled variables and diplomacy opening moves. We now have a very likely Russo-Turkish war, if France &/or GB are human they get a CB, if AI they get bounced into a war. Italian, Austrian and peace parts are all as before.


- 1880 campaign had spheres of influence restored
- fixed several missing strings
- you need Imperialism 4 to DOW
- That, for a given resource, all countries selling it, are selected at once in the trade interface is deemed normal. The original design was never to buy to a specific country.


- 1850 GC gets many extra fixes, courtesy of Siegfroh
- Added back many missing files (thanks Prussia). Not all as some are not needed. Please report if you believe a file is missing AND necessary.
- A ruler can now only declare war if he has an Imperialism of 7. This will severally limit the AI widespread warsImprovement in how the diplomacy entries are displayed in the diplo panel.


- static/garrisons units get back replacements as normal
- flags fixed on the diplomacy screen
- you can't interact with nations tagged as 'non formed nations', i.e w/o territories
- AI should not DOW such nations either (please report with backup folder if you see a DOW

@SlithFox [developer]: Thanks for the Update & your hard work.

Awesome thank you! How is PoN2 coming along? :)

[Tactical Wargamer (Richard)]

Doubt there will be a PON 2. Would be nice but not is the immediate future. Years if ever I would guess. Vicky 2 I think has the market now. I hope a PON2 comes out!!

I believe it will with the new game engine that AGEOD is working on.

What was today's small update all about?

@SlithFox [developer] What was the Update on Sept 1st about?

[Dray Prescot]

I think that we are seeing the new AGEod game engine with the Release of Field Of Glory: Empires, i.e. their new game set in the Roman Republic/Empire time period.

"Maybe" we will see new releases/undated versions of their old games such as PON (I hope we will) but it will probably take a lot of time (years) for all of them.

It would need to be a lot better than their Empires game though I didnt like that game at all, much prefer Imperator Rome.

Can I assume our steam game is automatically updated?

How high is the Imperialism of your ruler? If it is less than 4, you can't declare war, only defend.

Your leaders values are in the Government screen, F1. You can only change it by getting a new government, and for Japan it takes a while to reform for its passive, inward-looking isolationism to active empire building, specifically you will have to wait for Emperor Komei to die and the Tokugawa shogunate to fall. When Emperor Meiji comes into power, after a great deal of domestic chaos, then you will have a leader who take you to war with outside powers.

The stats for Emperor Komei are Imperialism 0, Diplomacy 0, Administration, 0. For Emperor Meiji, they are Imperialism 2, Diplomacy 2, Administration 2. But to these scores are added those of the Shogun/Prime Minister. After the weak Shoguns are gone in the 1860s, the first prime minister under Emperor Meiji will be the famous Okubo Toshimichi with Imperialism 7, Diplomacy 6, Administration 7, and then it is time for Japan to take its place in the world.
