Here's what's been learned about the new version version coming out:

[Battle Changes]

Some things to look for in the upcoming version of Ikariam that will change the way the

military will work.

Naval:

1. Instead of BLOCKADE PORT you will have a button called CAPTURE PORT.

2. There is no longer a 1h-8h limit on a blockade. When you Capture a port you will now hold

it until you either lose a sea battle or press the return ships button.

3. When you Capture a port, you can then distribute your ships usingthe full amount of APs

available from the cities port you captured.

Land Troops:

1. The Battle Field is larger, about twice as large. This means more troops will be on the field

and each round will have more losses. Rounds still last 15m. This means you need to bring

twice as many troops or attack in member groups to keep troop counts high.

2. Morale is NO LONGER based on Docs/Cooks sent[/b]. Morale still drops until you "wave"

in more troops.

---So you will need to consider APs and what troops you will recycle each round to keep your

morale up.

---This is the ONLYway to keep morale up.

---There are no slots on the battlefield for cooks or docs.

---When you pull troops to recycle your morale drops. But when you add troops, even just

adding 50 Spears, your morale goes way up.

---This means you can't just send a bunch of troops and logoff until tomorrow. For example,

you send troops into the battle and go to sleep. When you wake up the next morning your

troops will most likely be scattered because your morale dropped.

3. With more Mortars on the battlefield due to larger size (18 mortars to 30 now), your walls

will come down faster. A level 24 wall will come down completely in 2 rounds, a level 33 wall

will come down in 3-4 rounds. The only thing to slow this rate down is Balloons which dropon mortars.

4. After Colossus, Forge, and Poseidon, the ARES wonder will be your next favorite wonder,

if you are a warrior. It will be even more useful in the new version.

5. The "One Troop Rebel" trick, used to free your occupied town, will no longer work.

6. Guns, Mortars, Balloons and Gyros will run out of ammunition sooner because there are

more on the battlefield and they are taking more shots per round. So you will need to

recycle them more often.

7. The "One Balloon" trick still works as an easy way to knock out the enemies Balloons and

Gyros faster than yours. (this is sending 1 balloon in with your gyros so that the opponentsgyros focus solely on that 1 balloon-this saves your balloons for later rounds while knocking

out theirs and then taking out their gyros). While performing this trick, use Catapults in front

of Mortars to reduce damage costs.

These are the changes that have seen so far. I would suggest you create a TXT document and

copy/paste them for future reference if you like to battle. If any other changes come up I will

let you know.

At this time these changes are still in TEST mode and may or may not make it to the final

release of the next version
