Spoiler Ages Event

[PhoenixFenix]

There seem to be a new Ages Event coming up. A board game style event from the looks of it.

The special backgrounds for different era categories maybe means you advance in era every time you pass start of something?

Please let it be a replacement for the ferry game and its chests.

Ferry game? As in St Patricks? Someone already found spoilers for that so probably not. Plus St Patricks is one of the newer events. More likely they'd replace Spring or Summer which has been around longer

@Emberguard let’s hope to replace the summer casino. Pretty fed up by being forced to visiting an virtual casino in an strategy game each and every summer to obtain certain self set desirable summer event goals.

Nice, so technically speaking we’ll getting something new in SAJM

I'm not thrilled that it's 31 days.....................

New events are the only thing which pleases. The rest of the development harms the game.

It's probably just numbers, not days of the event.
Why else would there be a need for a dice holder?

Replacing spring would be fine with me.
But I love the summer event and its theme. So I really hope that stays right where it is.

 

[Emberguard]

I also love the Summer Event, especially as it has a inbuilt guaranteed maximum expenditure per Gold Prize and per Grand Prize. But I know not everyone does like it either cause they get bad luck or don’t like sharing with neighbours (though had people communicated with their neighbours there’s no reason the group couldn’t leverage their coins together to reduce costs on finding the prizes they wanted)

Honestly I love the theme of the summer. My problem is simple an raw game of chance. No skills, no strategy no nothing needed but luck. To me it would be rather nice if they would come up with a new minigame. Maybe some variation on the board game battleship or an treasure hunt similar to GE.
Judging on the time. I find it highly unlikely that this will replace the summer event. St. Patrick's day and spring are both more at risk judging from time and chronically order of events. Though a new summery theme wouldn't be bad, imo. Perhaps a bit refreshing once in a while. Even while the beach & pirate theme is an classic summer theme.

Oh please please let this finely be the death of the stupid spinning wheel of jerkdom that is the summer event.

There's more strategy in summer than there is in most events due to the community aspect.

- Do you refresh wheels yourself or let other people do it?
- Do you try to go for the prize as soon as it shows up, or do you try to wait til someone's cleaned some of the crap off the board?
- Which wheels are worth actually going for given that you're likely to run out of spins and then see even-better opportunities later. But if you wait too long, you might wind up spinning on worse ones.

As for my wish, I'd love to see st patricks bite it But I'd bet on spring since there's st pat's spoilers. And since the lily pad hopping game is just a different skin on football and soccer events... it seems a very likely candidate to become something different.

It remains an game of chance in an strategy game… You got a point though regarding the psychological addition of playing against neighbours. It’s even worse then just an game of chance.

Sharp I think you’re right. Kinda started liking the theme though I’m missing the Eastern event which got replaced by it. The eastern event had such unique vibes and brought unique units to the table but also in general the builds fit best in with the city. The Easter egg hunt was surely the best part of it imo. Still have from all events one of the best memories from the original first Eastern event.

from the timing of it, this appears to become the replacement for the 'frog jumping' spring event. or else, it will be between st patrick's and spring event.

Insert any no meme here.
Come on why do they keep changing good events, not the garbage ones.

To be fair, we don’t actually know if it’s replacing a event. We’re assuming it is as the alternative would be introducing a additional event

I found a present as well. I put it in my first post among the images in the table directly under the board frame.
