Spearmen Battle Formation. Test of New Unit in Shieldwall. 

it would be great to remove shield's from spearmans and give them longer range of attack so the second line of spearmans can attack too. Add Archers and the spearmans are countered by them.

How

Thank you so much! New update is coming soon.

@@NezonProduction How do you make it to be such a speerman?

They Multiplayer is already announced - He just wants to finish the main game first

@@MoDipohoC Oh mb, can't wait! But yea focusing on the game itself first makes a lot of sense.

Yes or the spearmen can`t really defend, so they need a swordsman in front of them to keep the enemy on distance and the spearmen can attack on distance, but without swordsman the spearmen would just die. Might be as easy as reducing their health.

Parthian maybe?

Persian is coming in the next update

I do not plan to add cavalry to Shieldwall. I think it will break the game. The game is called Shieldwall and it's about infantry. All the maps are balanced for infantry. They are too small for cavalry. If I will make maps for cavalry, they will be too large for playing as infantry. So it will become a different game not about shield walls. Maybe I will call the next game Horsewall and it will be about cavalry :D

@@NezonProduction yeah, it would also be completely unbalanced and overpowered. If you put enough infantry units in the game, which maybe even differ between the factions, nobody will miss cavalry. Onagers and other defend/siege equipments would be good tho.

They have the same logic of blocking. The main difference is the distance of the hit. So spearmen try to keep that distance. They step back and step back. The formations becomes like a crescent and they surround the enemy. It's difficult to block being attacked from 2-3 sides at the same time. But it works depending on the landscape. Spearmen are not overpowered, they have slower attacking speed, and in many situations they will lose against swordsmen. So it's all about positioning.

It depends on the faction. If you play as Rome, legionaries will be the best troop. Playing as Greece you have hoplites as the best unit. This is how it works now. I plan to balance all these features based on players feedback to make the game better.

@@NezonProduction ah ok, thx for the reply 🙂

Спасибо. Египет и Персия появятся вместе с началом третьего акта. Копейщики будут у всех фракций.

I've made an option in the game, so you can switch it on/off. Do I like motion blur? I do not know, in other games I usually use default settings.

I don't know yet

@@NezonProduction I think they could have the same price, they attack slower but got longer distance attack, so it is someway balanced

Yes, they are

@@NezonProduction Super cool!!!

@@NezonProduction When?

I'll add a helping system which provides you extra gold.

Kk J Be patient. You have more gold than them. Stay in the center build up resources and EXp on banner. When ready. Destroy the gate and retreat. Retrain, capture first flag and retreat. If you irreversibly loose control of the 3 outpost it’s game over, try again. Romans do well with an all damage banner.

@@erupendragon7376 I did it differently and I think that works even better : I just waited to have a few key upgrades (legionaries + standard + standard atk speed upgrade + army size upgrade + gate destruction speed) and saved the rest. I waited to get like 700 gold and waited for the IA to attack my point A while I was waiting at point C. It took a while but eventually the IA left the city wall when it got reinforcements so I attacked alesia at that time and took the city mostly undefended (beside a few defenders). Meanwhile the ia got all three starting points (so I was pretty much in a reversed position from the start) and I was surprised to see how many troops were coming my way. I even though I couldn't defend that but luckily, with a few defenders and by using the large savings to replace any dead legionary on the spot while we were fighting in alesia (the gates were of course still destroyed). After a while, though, you start to breath a little as reinforcements aren't full armies you can eventually leave the city to take the point A back. And then it's a piece of cake. This way the battle of Alesia can be won in roughly ~15 minutes

Noaxsette it’s been a long time. I mastered Alesia。 my new problem is getting gold in the new map with 4 forts and catapults. I always run out of time before storming all 4 forts. The final mission in Egypt is beautiful, but easy.
