And remember the other mission. I finishehd one more battle after this, but didn't get a photo. Managed to get within 700xp of this mission. And then... server reset! Not gonna lie, a little salty. However, more than that, I find it amusing. If I started early, if I paid more attention, I would have gotten it no problem. Ultimately, it was my fault, and I recognize it. Just thought it was amsuing how close I got before failing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, he's the only Russian captain in the game you can use on American ships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tthat's the reason I ignored it for the first week. Fun fact. Set the difficulty to Deity, map size to duel. Pick win by score, set limit to turn 1. Pick Peter the Great. Settle a city. As long as you aren't fighting Trajan, you just won on Deity because it is by score and Peter gets extra land at the start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sad panda for sure While it does suck, never assume with WG. WG end dates used to be hazy, now they are all 4:20am PST the day ending, so, always assume the day before. Clearly a troll to the late night tokers... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boy is that frustrating, having to play a whole other match just for 1 exp point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
