Structure lists and economic mapmode?

The release video, at one point, shows a structure list that appears after the presenter clicks on Constantinople. I can't seem to figure out how to get to this list. Second, is there any way to assess the economic importance of different cities? In RUS, manpower and war supplies are displayed on th...

Crash while trying to inspect unit stats in construction menu

Using Gold, Russian version. Specifically, this is the Ice March scenario, playing as Whites. On the second turn, trying to right-click on buildable unit elements results in a crash. 1:50:52 PM [Critical ] TGameSim.SelectGameElt Exception caught: Indice de liste hors limites (-866)

Septimius Severus Victory Conditions

Having gotten back into AJE recently, I just finished playing Septimius Severus, eking out a minor victory. Does anybody know if it's possible to decisively knock either Clodius or Pescennius out of contention, i.e., annex them? Does this happen if they are physically killed? (would explain why the ...

Totally messed up DB for Spartacus (PO version) scenario!

I bought AJE before it was released but didn't get to play it much. Decided to give it another try. Short on time, I wanted to try a shorter scenario. Spartacus it is. So, with the latest patch...there are no gladiators anywhere to be seen in Spartacus' army. Instead, there is cavalry called "Pedite...

As a general thing, it would be good if all of the national entities were separate factions.

The reason it is so low is because Denikin and the Don Cos...

Perhaps these should go into a single thread?

It's a bit odd that these are considered to be a part of Siberian Whites (considering that Komuch is not). It's more of an aesthetics issue, but shouldn't these be assigned to their own sub-faction?

Some large scale rebellions are handled by events, under some conditions, that I can not indicate because I'm not the one handling historical events.

Can the team give us some insight into how rebellions and such are handled?
