I alpha-beta'd Warships and if its going to be run by the same people one thing you can expect is absolutely ridiculous prices on purchasable units. Warships was pretty fun, until they nerfed DDs...

So havent had the opportunity to do so in the past so never asked or had reason to look but are we allowed to post game code keys here?

I got an extra atm and figured I'd post it here, but wanted...

Well, I'm not a spokesman for any of the 3 I mentioned, but no, they weren't using mods. (I'm like 98% sure for TRK, and 85% for the other 2 they aren't using mods). I'll grant you that yes, they...

Basically I'll echo what multiple people have said w/in this thread.

1. Rome II left a bitter, bitter taste in my mouth

2. Expansion, essentially

3. Basically, punishment until its 75% off...

Also bear in mind what you wish to do after you capture a settlement. If you're really moving along and dont wish to bog down your army for an extended period of time, often razing is the best...

My suggestion would be to come up thru India, but be prepared for massive, massive melee charges constantly. Which the EU units don't do so well against. Except, for a few of the upper tiered ones....

1-General
4-6# Horse cannon
4-Cavalry ( 9 out of 10x I prefer lancers to any other cavalry types, especially Uhlans/Winged Hussars depending on the year they're upgraded)
1-House guard cav...

Another thing I've noticed is to hold access as a bargaining tool. More times than not the AI wants the access more then it wants the actual alliance. So say for instance you're Rome, you have...

The game releases a comp worm/trojan into your HD that allows African princes looking to launder money, Russian mail order brides, child pr0n images to be sent to the proper authorities, various...

You're second contribution is to necro a SEVEN year old thread? Thats some pretty big shoes to fill for post number 3




This thread's LAST post, is actually OLDER then my join date! Now...

I had that problem a long, long time ago, maybe 6-8 months after release. It always seemed to happen for me right around river crossings. It happened to me multiple times against the same AI Native...

Awesomely vague post.


Thank-you for sharing?

Well, they must provide something, because the more I upgrade them the more money I'm making. The more I'm spending, the more I'm upgrading. Are the benefits small? Yeah, I'd agree, but the other...

I'm w/Veneratio. I can't think of a time that the AI entered my territories except for rare road placements that put them in for like just a second unless they're going after rebels/slaves. I've...

Just finished an Egyptian campaign and there's good/bad to it. Personally, I found it rather uninteresting. Its good for doing a few merits like the full tech tree and "build monument xxx", but my...

I soooo thought the theme of this thread was going to be "why are the factions so angry when I even ask for trade?"

Don't get me wrong. I agree w/whats been said, but still, the AI is soo angry...

I'm w/this guy

Lets go ahead and get this out of the way, right off the bat.


That sure the heck is an awefully Caucasian looking Attila.

OT,

Not really interested. Not a major shock of a progression in...

My hope is for another Empire Total war era game. I personally liked the muskets-cannons style gameplay more than the other gameplays so far.

My belief is however that they will be doing a...

Well,

I certainly appreciate the suggestions. Tmrw I'll take it out, give it a good "blow" (oh baby!!), and give it another shot. I haven't tried the suggested posts about upping the memory, the...

I had it serviced about a year ago, give or take. Fans. Well, I have an outside fan and open window that I blow directly onto the comp. It gets good ventilation, and is a pretty open case overall. Im...

So long story short

ETW ran fine about 6 months ago. Started new campaign, crashes. Multiple uninstalls/re-installs later, CCcleaner, update drivers/video cards. Re-install. It seems to work fine,...

D'L'd ER4.5. Got it going. Answered several of my original questions above. Such as the "fortifications" and "text" question. However, 1st battle in ended up w/a crash about 5 minutes into it....

Most time played, definitely ETW, and the most immersive for me.

I did like a lot of features of Shogun2, but never really *grabbed* me.

Rome II's new beta 15 has certainly improved the game to...

Howdy,

So had to do some acrobatics, but got everything running again for ETW w/out crashes, but during the process I had to remove everything ETW related. Before that my last ER was 4.0. So...

Hey

Long story short. I had to reinstall ETW, in the process I saved ER4, thought I lost it. D/L'd ER4.5. Re-found 4 and got that running. Than I thought, "well, whats different in 4.5 that I may...

I have to back Destin on the Realism mod as well by Jam. My personal reasons were that it alleviated walled cities (which I DESPISE), small armies (so that Im not being attacked by 8 stacks of armies...

Starting to have the same issues as you Duke of York. Just recently started as well w/a Spartan campaign. I cant say mine is directly related to the patch, because I had played maybe 15-20 turns, and...

Not necessarily. He simply could of attacked w/the second legion.

As to the forced march problem. Have you tried 'deactivating' at the beginning of a turn? I think if you move and then attempt to...

Im not sure if its the siege AI against walled cities. The fact we even have walled-pathfinding cities still, or a toss-up of the battlefield AI and the quickness everything is over with. Armored...

I'll say this again. Just remove the walls. All of them. Anything that requires or presents itself as an obstacle for the AI, and becomes a pathfinding issue. Its been the same since forever. Why...

I think one of the ways to debate this, would be given equal troops, equipment, training (time, in that each would be allowed to train troops for 1 year to do what each individual general wanted to...

Just over 200 hrs.. The most annoying thing I guess is that I log out of the game more times than not frustrated instead of "OMG look at the time I gotta go!!"

I think quite a bit of my time is...

I didn't notice any road improvements graphically in my Macedon campaign, but I will say it certainly "seemed" like my armies moved much quicker in Europe major as compared to the armies I had in...

I'm w/you upto the point of good/evil. Caesar, okay I get because of Gaul. But, Napoleon, why is he evil and Wellington/Hannibal good? Saying he was evil. based on he created wars simply for wars...

That's part of the choosing who's a better general, or 'deadlier' as its posted. Having engineering corps to make siege equipment is part of being a good general. Several others posted previously...

I would suggest this sub-forum over this one

If they were strong enough or valuable enough to have been my ally-client state then they would not have fallen to me in the 1st place.

I'd agree w/everything you posted on that one

@Mediaeval

I'd agree w/the majority of your post, EXCEPT, and I can not emphasis this enough. THEY MUST REMOVE ANY and ALL...

Prussia is cool until they switch flags. Then its sadness. That black/white Eagle is wicked, cool. The black-red-yellow one is unfortunate and much less inspiring.
