Getting into ToB for the first time after Steel and Statecraft and I find it to be one of my favorite Total War titles. I know it was rough at the start, but the game currently is a lot of fun. I’ll...

Ships leaving plus family tree are two long overdue but very much welcome fixes

I’d probably buy all the DLC for Rome 2 if they would patch in naval combat fixes to let all ships land and add family trees. Until that I struggle with Rome 2 DLC even on sale. Fortunately DeI has...

Been waiting for this update, thank you!

I have no idea why one of these threads could disappear....

Glad you found a faction that makes you dislike the game a little less.

I’m convinced this is an elaborate troll thread

All the complaints I have seen is that it is too easy, hence today’s patch making it more difficult.

It also stops the remnants of a defeated army from creating a stronghold in a town. All towns should have a garrison mechanic imo.

I think the last vanilla game I played was Medieval 2 but that was 12 years ago so it is hard to remember. The modders make Total War the games that last a decade.

I think that sums it up perfectly

Good deal, thanks for the update

A great warrior should die in battle right? Seems fitting, although their retirement from the front lines has benefits.

I lean more toward letting them be warriors until they start losing their...

That doesn’t sound promising and thanks for the overview. Sounds like good intentions poorly implemented.

Having gotten back into DeI in the last few months (finally got a PC that can easily handle Rome 2) it is now one of my favorite games. I definitely trust them to make ToB just as great if they stick...

Isn’t a lot of the complexity of R2TW mod created? I remember the base gaming being pretty light at release. What gives the games the longevity is their difficulty, just go look at some of the mods...

The most troubling trend to me is that they strip out core features only to re-introduce them a few games down the line, it is the same act that EA uses with their annual sports titles and it gets...

Having never bought/played Attila, what are the critical bugs? Not looking for great detail, just the highlights.

Also, Lion of Ireland is one of my favorite historical fiction books set in this...

Even in the dark ages there were only 2 certainties in life, death and taxes. I guess the citizens don’t get upset because they know they’ll have to pay the default rate no matter what.

I clearly have some economic guides to read, this is impressive stuff!

I’m going to try using the command to back up without changing facing with ships to see if that is useful for giving them additional spacing for the subsequent ramming after the initial go. It makes...

I'll grab that this evening, thanks

Seems I was putting too much emphasis on boarding actions and not enough on ramming when conducting naval operations. I'll start using the ramming more often and save boarding when I have numerical...

I wouldn’t use both, I really enjoy the hardcore mod but was curious to see how it compared to this mod as this seems to be more of an economic impact mod. Hardcore mod minus the hits to diplomacy is...

I had no idea! Where is it on Steam?

I'll definitely take a look and adjust my fleet building. Some good info, thanks!

I was starting to lean strictly toward just brute forcing it with Roman marines, but I'll definitely be looking...

I've done a few searches and wasn't able to find much so figured the guides section was the right place to ask.

Does anyone have some good information on the best strategies to use for Rome 2...

How does this mod compare to the Hardcore mod plus reduced upkeep mod? I love the extended build times and times to get a province settled after taking it over, but the Hardcore mod makes diplomacy...

I’m going to try and do some of these tests this weekend. I think it may be the issue people had a long time ago with the slider change not having any impact. For what it is worth, I have the steam...

I’m glad this topic came to light. I never would have tried the hardcore Sub mod otherwise and I’m having an absolute blast with it, the difficulty of capturing and integrating new territory into the...

N/N with hardcore mod seems to be the ticket. I think this has existed for longer than we realize but recent patches finally really made it stick out as an issue.

Are the hardcore and softcore mods on Steam in the workshop? Sounds like N/N with hardcore mod is going to hit the sweet spot. Thanks!

Starting a new campaign as Rome, recruiting the exact same army and attacking Arretium on a H/N vs N/N yielded two very different results, it’s probably the easiest way notice that something in the...

Realizing this and playing N/N versus H/N has saved my Rome 2 experience. I never understood why playing H/N my armies would fight themselves to nothing in battles going down to the last man to win,...

Julia with the Ag bonus that couples with having plenty of food. Armies and empires live and die by the belly right? Who needs industry?!

My battles usually end in 1 or 2 units versus 1 or 2 units, definitely struggle breaking the computer morale en mass. Working on it though and am glad to get the new updated Steam release of the mod!...

I went to the far left tile and from there I could attack, but still crashed in the load screen if the enemy sallied forth. So I fought it out (quite the slugfest! EB has the best Total War combat)...

Fought the whole battle and it crashed at the battle summary screen. Log attached.

I think it turned out to be coincidence, still crashed when they would sally forth in more tests, but loaded when I attacked. I've tried different factors and replicating them but to no avail. I've...

I had no problems for 20 turns as the Romans, then reinforced my army and assaulted Felsina. Continual crashes every time in the battle load regardless of if I attacked or let them sally forth. I...

I have to agree that EB2 combat is my preferred style, the slower pace allows for more strategic movement during the fights. I finally got my Medieval 2 working on my new setup and it’s a joy playing...
