I’m sure there this has been reported, but for peace of mind I'd like to report an issue plaguing the game. There is a severe bug that cause Empire faction to be undefeatable. Any match where Empire is present, only they can win.
I just versed Empire 4 matches in a row with variety of factions. Only 2 rounds of those 12 rounds were won, and just narrowly. The next time I was Empire I was on team with all new players except for 1 with beta badge vs a stacked party team with multiple 250+ wins. We won every round. It wasn’t close.
It isnt just a single unit or weapon. The guard is strong, mena and levy, then cataphract. All these units are among the best of their class. The entire faction and their weapons are so crushingly over-powered. How is the gamebreaking bug still in the game. Why does only one of two teams get access to this god-tier faction? As a side note why does only 1 team have to suffer the fate of being cursed with battania. If you think this isn’t the case, you aren’t playing captain mode.
Here is my modest proposal. Since this bug is so clearly difficult to root out:
Remove empire from multiplayer
Remove Battania from multiplayer
Matches only consist of the following:
Only the two horse factions vs ea other and in culturally appropriate maps
Vlandia vs Vlandia
Sturgia vs Sturgia
Vlandia vs Sturgia
