I saw the AI changes right away when doing attacks and they are a bit more difficult. I adjusted my attacking force to minimize the unit losses. Does Inno need to announce they changed the AI make up each of us will face, not sure. For negotiations, I also saw more 6 resource negos, as others noted, and the make up of the negotiations changed a little, for example, 6 resource waterfall has coin/sup/4goods but the old map had 1 coin OR supply and 5 goods AS AN EXAMPLE, I didnt document other changes but this one is for sure. They made negos more difficult by having more 6 resource. Should they have announced it? dont know.
Getting fragments, I had 15% per attack earlier in the thread but the number seems more like 12% (as a good factor to use, mine was 13% but others reported 11 to 13%). The old map is 24 to 25% for SOH, so it is half (and twice as long to get bcs it is every other season).
They made getting the GBG elephant building more difficult and it is probably bcs you are getting a building with attack, FP and guild goods. When you compare the Citadel, 12%A, 3 FP, 65 guild goods or Royal, 10%A, 6FP, 70 guild goods to the SOH, L8 FP, 80 guild goods, you are getting a better building.
FP frequency didn't really change, I got about 16% in the new map, old map is about the same.
Here is the data for 3000 attacks and all the rewards. Note, I combined coins and supplies, they were 117 each and I think the game treats them as equals, no reason they shouldn't be equal.
reward | amount | % per attack |
10 Forge Points | 484 | 16.1% |
elephant fragments | 389 | 13.0% |
coin/sup | 234 | 7.8% |
3x Rogue | 73 | 2.4% |
25 Diamonds | 27 | 0.9% |
5x military units | 106 | 3.5% |
2x military units | 22 | 0.7% |
50 goods | 69 | 2.3% |
10% Attacker Boost | 25 | 0.8% |
20% Attacker Boost | 17 | 0.6% |
total rewards | 1446 | |
# of attacks | 3000 | |
% rewards per attack | 48.2% | |
some other data I tracked, 4 SC - 96% attrition free (seems this topic is mentioned at times as being less than 96%, the non believers)
attrition | # attacks | % |
3 | 22 | 13.6% |
3 | 43 | 7.0% |
2 | 55 | 3.6% |
0 | 100 | 0.0% |
0 | 7 | 0.0% |
1 | 26 | 3.8% |
2 | 56 | 3.6% |
total 11 | total 309 | total 3.6% |
I kept track of individual provinces and the sum total for all the provinces is at the bottom. It is only 309 data points but it is something. Maybe I can get it over 1000 but I need all 4 SC provinces. So, the first 2 provinces, some COULD think there is something wrong with the game and Inno is cheating you. Or, another remote possibility, each province could have its own Random data set. But then those zeros show up and the total is at 4% which is correct. Pls don't throw a statistics book at me (lol) I realize more data points would be better but 309 isn't terrible.
