I like the old Mongol skins and models more from 2.1. I wonder how I can switch the skins and models from 2.1 to 2.4?
I notice that the unit cards are from 2.1, but the actual units are taken from...

Hi! I thank you for your response to this thread. Your comment is very insightful. I have never paid attention the kind of horse and his endurance. Do you know any book or article that specifically...

Hi!

I am doing a bit of research on the barding of Western knights and Middle east seljuk atabegs in the XIII century. From what I've read so far, it seems that they were not covered in mailed...

Have 2 files of export_descr_buildings, 1 with slow rate of replenishment, another with faster rate. Copy and paste the slower rate when you feel they need to slow down. You of course should back up...

I see that almost all customs of Turkish units are imported from 1257AD's mod of Mount and Blade: Warband, interesting.

Very happy with the Mongols so far, they are true Mongols.
The underlying mechanic that help the Mongols to combat against strong factions after some 100 turns is an incredible improvement compared...

This is one of the engagements recommended in Sunbin Art of War, where troops holding long weapons tried to keep the enemy at bay while missile troops would fire directly at the enemy.

Cavalry deployed en masse in my arse.

The role of cavalry in this timeframe is still a subordinated unit to charriots. I said in the last post that charriots already declined, but this decline is...

Sure, the number you usually see is something more above 3 million, but this is from 1965-1974, not from Diem's reign, which moved back to 1955.

I just use Lewy as an example, please note clearly...

No, my assertion is that these numbers are HUGELY inflated.

Let us rewind these numbers once again:

3 supposed greatest victory of Bai Qi:

Changping: 450,000 deaths of Zhao soldiers...

I don't know why there is such a huge bias towards Rome 2. Rome 2 back in 2013 should be a big dissapoinment, but anyone who has the foresight should be able to see that in future Rome 2 is going to...

I actually prefer the old map and old portraits, they are the hightlight of this game, but the improvemet of unit skins on the battlefield is my opinion the best of this mod.

I haven't played MTW 1 for quite a long time. However, I always love this game and will return to it somedays.

Several features that are forgotten by later games, yet I remember very clear despite...

I have read more carefully the letter Sima Qian wrote to Ren An and remembered the second-in-command at the battle of Changping was actually Sima Jin (司馬靳). So Jin also participated directly in the...

Understandable! The issue of "pirating" old books is well known in Classical Chinese. This is because there was no concept of copyright back then, and also due to the tendency of adhering works of...

Hi!
Can someone upload again gamegeek2 edu? I can't seem to find his.

Thanks a million!

Yeah, Samartians should be Caucasianoid.

But...Artefacts found in many Xiongnu tombs near the Altai mountains reflected a Scythian cultural influence. I would say that the steppes was really a...

Rome 2 has a lot potentials to become a great game with mods.

How can you guys compare an older game with a newer one with so much more new features?

Man, those are bardings from the Tujue Empire (Kok Turuk Empire) and the latter is indeed Xianbei Northern Wei.

They are not the Huns.

Maybe I am still influenced by the Huns-Xiongnu...

Yeah, I am sure the Samartians had bardings, but I mean the Huns, not Samartians. You get it?

Besides, it seems you agree with me on that the Huns probably didn't field the most heavy types of...

Did you guys see them?
I can't believe EA made Hunnic cataphracts. I don't even remember seeing horse bardings being used commonly in this period, especially by the Huns.

It's quite an irritating...

Hi!
Warring States Period or Seven Warring States Period is a period that follows the Spring and Autumn Era. Please keep in mind that historical sources for this period is fragmentary and up till...

CarpathianWolf, your assessment is fair and I agree with much of what you wrote untilthis:



Who told you the Han army couldn't field 100,000 professional troops? During the Mobei campaign...

Before you even reached their proper territory, you must cross the steppe. And in fact, the distance between Rome and Han nullified any infantry engagement. The Western Han won the day by recruiting...

I think the problem with this thread is that posters are usually quite knowledgeable about Roman military tactics and organization, yet poorly understand those of Han army. The second problem is the...

I just wonder how do you find the Khwarezm-Shah campaign.

I have managed to overcome the Mongol invasion even with Byzantine Boy's rebuff. The key point I think is to seize important regions that...

Neutrality is the key here, and rebel is the enemy of everyone. :)

Regarding the Mongols, I have noticed that in the current descr_building.txt, they cannot recruit any other units except native...

I have done a couple of experiment. I am playing right now as Khwarezmiashah, I have destroyed almost all the Mongol armies except their last two stacks. Before taking their last settlement which is...

Whenever you give a region to another faction via a diplomat, you will notice the computer automatically spawn a number of units in that region's city or citadel for that faction. I wonder what...

Can you based your EDU on Gamegeek's edu. It's one of the best edu I have ever seen.

[/B]Wrong syntax, actually! add_money mongols, 10000!
I have tried, and it worked.WW

Also a problem occurs when I played the Khwarezmian Shah. Like whenever the daughters of my ruler married a...

Does this work for you? For me it seems that it adds money to my own treasury. This is not right! I want to add money to the Mongols to help them recover from their debts, yet all I receive is for...

Thanh Hoa played an important role in the second war actually. Tran Hung Dao used boats to escape from Van Kiep when the Yuan troops reached there. Thanh Hoa was safer, yet they still had to face the...
