Rabelesius Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Is is true that Lawrence only shows up once Aqaba is conquered? I see in the AAR that experienced players block the Arab uprising by putting a unit quickly there to make the Arab uprising toothless. Can this event be changed so that Lawrence shows up anyhow? What do others think about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glabro Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Lawrence has only showed up once in our games despite Aqaba falling every time. Maybe you can't conquer Aqaba too fast, or something. In my latest game I never got the event message informing me that taking Aqaba lets Lawrence take control. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Bill101 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Hi Even if Aqaba is captured, Lawrence only turns up if the Arab revolt is in progress, i.e. after the decision event relating to that which fires in November 1915. So, if you've captured Aqaba before that point then he should deploy later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabelesius Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 But Bill, that seems to be the issue. Once Aqaba conquered is a triggering condition for Lawrence, it is easy to move one Ottoman unit there and prevent him from arriving. The Arabs alone are too weak to conquer Aqaba.

Bill101 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Got it. I'll have a think about this to see if there's a way to boost up the Arabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
