It came back on briefly and contruction was completed on time, and my resources were still going up. I presume things will continue without us there.

Edit: The server came back up, and my trade ships, which were sent out 10 hours ago, will still take 15 hours (all of them) to reach their destinations. Some of them are adjacent islands from where they originated...

Yeah, all 45 of my cargo ships are stuck in limbo. I'm getting (relatively) close to my 6th town, or else I'd probably just quit at this point. Game's been pretty much fucked for the past couple of weeks since the upgrade from v.0.2.1. Stuck spies, can't train spies, stuck ships, stuck troops.

I may have to give this game up until they fix the bugs.

This is actually the first problem I have ever had with this game... at least keep your account active for a bit bringing in cash and all.

I'm low as it is. I bought some and it was on its way, but now I may be in trouble. My citizens are not going to be happy...

Can you? If you have ships out (or coming in), you are not suppose to be able to.

-Update- We have just fixed some problems with the event-handler. The problems should be fixed shortly, it may take up to a few hours for everything to be working as expecting.

Thankyou for your patience.

I still play. The new patch indeed made it more fun. I enjoy pillaging people and making off with 87 boatloads of marble 6x/day. :up:

There are 10 new buildings which increase resource production rates and decrease resource consumption in town, 1 for each resource type. You can build more than 1 warehouse per town, you get more action points, construction times and costs of buildings and units have been scaled differently (just about everything is cheaper), travel time of units/ships was increased, and cargo ships hold 500 instead of 300 resources.

My personal favorite change is that you can't pillage gold anymore and port sizes don't dictate how many resources you get. Instead, you send as many cargo ships as you want with your attacking force and if you win, the ships will load up until they're full or your target runs out of resources. I have been pulling in 45,000 wood and marble several times per day for the last week.
