In France, the titles are as follow :
Roi (King), came from the germanic tribal leaders, in the case of the franks, from the merovingian dynasty. I am not well versed enough in frankish history to...
That may, indeed, mean a magistrature with powers of justice, much like the roman consulship (and other roman magistratures) with their associated imperium and lictors, rather than a judge in a more...
I recall having read something about a stelae written in Etrurian in Lesbos.
Wich is interesting on several levels.
First of all it is only a small distance away of the trojan coast....
Yes, that is the main opinion (and probably the correct one).
But what is making things a bit more complex, from what i understand, is that latter, what we understand today as "suffetes", were...
Carthage's influence on archaïc Rome seem to have been more important than what is usually imagined/aknowledged.
Carthage treaties with Rome were first signed immediately after the republic was...
I am reacting to this a bit late but hey...
I am not sure myself, but i've read "Carthage must be destroyed !" By Richard Miles and he adress this quite extensively...
Although he don't really...
Well... I am no expert, but if i recall what i read about that matter correctly, it's not that simple. Hercule and Herakles are the same person... And yet they aren't entirely...
You may be...
If there is a god and that God is truly omnipotent and omniscient, then free will is impossible*.
*Of course, i know the theory that God limit his powers himself to give us freewill, but that...
All major factions capitals do (including Bretonnia and Kislev by the way... (DLC/FLC inc etc)).
If you take a look at this site, there are several city maps among others maps, most (Delberz, Bogehnhafen etc) seems to be from the Warhammer RPG supplements rather than the TT game, but that's to...
Couldn't the confederation issue with the secondary lords be resolved if the main factions are changed to "Reikland" "Karaz a Karak" etc and then once one faction initiate a confederation, they are...
I was playing the game just now and thinking about how CA implemented this conquest mecanics i thought that it didn't work as it should, lore wise, in the game.
I can understand CA logic with...
I played M2 with all the patches (and there were only 3 iirc, maybe 4, and they came waaaaaay after the game went out) and even with mods i still had this issue of troops being unable to take the...
By the way, in Warhammer many dwarves have chosen to live in human settlements looking to the Empire for the protection they can't get anymore in the orc infested mountains. They are engineer and...
Several crashes during multiplayer battles (3 out of 5 games, only one during the battle proper, the others were right after the battle ended), none in single player so far.
Yeah, it's funny, because as far as i remember sieges in medieval 2, my experience was similar to yours.
Most of the time when the AI attacked a castle they would pass the first wall, then sit...
Siege in totalwar are actually wall assaults (and always have been)...
So i don't see how it's "dumbing down" to actually rush the wall rather than magically destroy fortifications in just a couple...
The greenskins should be played very aggressively, they get lots of money out of a won battle and sacking a settlement will bring you tons of money too.
That's insane actually. Sacking a well...
As the greenskins i had two full stacks of Bjornlings appearing right upon my shores after the message that the chaos horde was in march. They disembarked and attacked me. Once i dealt with them, the...
A better hint for the skavens in the future is the structure/city visible on non-crossable land in the campaign map where Skavenblight is supposed to be IMO. :)
...
Those at war with the player (dwarfs)
Neither the high and dark elves would be included in the first game since it centers on the old world. And it was clear from the initial informations that...
The cost of the weapons isn't the only explanation since most spear armed troops used a sidearm anyway and it often was a sword (or a large knife)...
What is great with swords is that they are...
I have some rather ugly roads poping up in my recent FOTE campaign. Is it from the mod and if it is, is it working as intended ?
The road itself stay the same, the smaller roads are as in vanilla,...
They have a history of messing with Paris geographical position in their game, so i guess it's to keep in line with it. :P
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaghhhhhh !!!!!
I am pretty sure that there are no direct link with the IS.
It's all about the intervention in Mali and Algerian/saharan islamists, vaguely linked to AQ in the form of AQMI.
The only link with...
Not really unique because before the french intervention there was a series of hostages takings targeting europeans (and french especially) tourists and buisnessmen all around western Africa from...
Coran is the spelling in french and, i guess, in spanish.
Koran is not more correct since it's a guttural k in arabic, usualy transcripted as a "q" in arabic written in latin script.
As to the...
What ?
:laughter:
Do you even know what those acronyms stand for ?
YPG = People's protection units.
PKK = Kurdistan Workers' Party.
Yes they are.
The Vermintide OST is awesome (a bit repetitive maybe, since there aren't that many different pieces, but cool nonetheless) and capture very well the mix that Warhammer represent (a bit of horror,...
As if it ever was different...
Rome surfed on Gladiator's references and the spartan there were already "badass... :wub: YEA!1!1!1"...
Medieval 2 followed the release of Kingdom of Heaven.
...
Ok. Those three points.
Yep, Iran is responsible for the rise of Daesh, not the US led invasion and bad handling of Irak afterward.
And they sure helped daesh, their ennemy, who they are...
Shamelessy stolen from Frederic the great though... :)
(And yep, i just noticed the necro by the way)
That's the story, the particular "Montjoie" of the battlecry though is thought to...
I thought so, but the ostrogothic roster i played with was making sense, the artillery ships have roman marines, the fireship oriental corsairs, the rest specific gothic/germanic unit with FOTE skins...
Gothic marines seem to lack their (two handed ?) weapons and some of them lack a skin texture (transparent guys). As far as i know, none of my others mods are supposed to interact with units but i...
Yes but designing radically new ships (wich won't fit into the established backgound of GW, since the ships are already designed inside that background) won't change the issue that it's GW that...
Pretty much the same amount of work than for any Totalwar actually...
Or do you believe the cities we have seen so far are actual representation of the cities they are meant to represent as they...
The matter is different, it's not "hey we are designing it ourselves so GW has nothing to say about it". It's just that Warhammer battles is a game about land battles. Man o War a game about naval...
They are working on a new historical title in parallel to Warhammer Totalwar though and while they stated (iirc) that it won't be a third iteration of a current game, they said nothing about a "2",...
