Mare Nostrvm developed by Turnopia and published by Slitherine. Ancient naval warfare kind of like a Fields of Glory 2 for naval combat
70 gigs hard space for this really. Well you can **** right off then and **** off some more ;)
Since I posted that it's good to see the specs have changed to something more reasonable. Pleased.
The Spiffing Brit shows that Rome Remastered is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits.

Goodbye Rebel faction it was nice conquering you. Looking forward to a Medieval overhaul mod.
BI and Alex are remastered.
It'll need mods because Bronze age Egyptians, Head hurlers and an unexpanded map. After all it's not the mid 2000's any more...
I don't find the thought of a main campaign of vanilla Rome 1 even with moderate improvements very appealing to be honest. I would have to wait for mods. But vanilla Barbarian Invasion that's...
You've got yourself a really good deal and timed it right with the 2.0 update to start.
The culture update from 1.5 with how the player handles their population laid the ground work for 2.0 in how...
Picked this up with Legions Triumphant and Wolves at the Gate.
Just Wolves at The Gate is keeping me occupied.
Coming from tabletop miniatures wargaming I've had this on my radar for a while and...
Renewing those trademarks is just sensible to keep your powder dry by keeping their intellectual properties. I would love to see them after Warhammer breaking out of the rut of historical games by...
Chivalry for me is still one of the main mods for RTW. A TWC member on here recommended it to me before I got Med 2 and that got to be about ten years ago. It just a really atmospheric mod more so...
The Mediafire download link for 1914 version 0.63 for Darkest Hour is working. Works with version 1.03 of Darkest Hour (which you roll back to from the updated Steam Version) Doesn't use the Darkest...
Imperator, Stellaris and CK3
Overall it's a keeper I can sink more time into ck3 compared to CK2. Speaking as someone who has a couple of hundred hours in CK2 and most of the expansions.
The improvements to the interface are...
I've played 3 hours of Troy so far and haven't touched it since. Which is 1 hour more than I've played of Thrones before I uninstalled it. It's shame it's a Saga title rather than a full blown Total...
I've got it on a custom setting of Low with 2x aliasing and ultra unit size on a GTX750. I'll adjust more settings the further I get in the game. But I'm not bothered by more eye candy as unit size...
After playing it my first impression is that its a much improved version of Civ V. Love the district system and the dual civic/science tree but they need to improve the one unit per tile system eg...
That's quite easy Medieval 2 or Rome 1
Troy proves that Total War isn't dead it just smells funny
As it's free for 1 day we can all treat it as a time unlimited demo.
Civ 6 is free on the Epic Store until May 28th

For me it's Shogun 2/Fall of the Samurai/Rise of the Samurai for medieval combat, gun powder and manual naval combat.
Rome 2 is enjoyable but the autoresolve is just unbalanced ie just make a...
I don't play total war as much as I used to which keeps it fresh. Finished a couple of campaigns in RTW during the summer. Thrones gave me a nasty taste in the mouth
It's going to be interesting to see how this evolves from the shadow CK2 with its years of development and expansions. After all there are still plenty of players of both Civ 5 and Civ 6
Initially...
So many to choose from and I still haven't tried them all
Those that I have really enjoyed:
Chivalry, Europa Barbarorum, Rome Total Realism and Extend Greek Mod for Rome 1
Mod 2 Retrofit,...
The naval combat in Troy sounds retarded. I thought in Warhammer 2 it's abit of a stretch turning naval battles into field battles. Here's looking forwrd to Warhammer 3.
Just thinking I'm never...
First thought : [insert Cheech and Chong meme here]
Second thought : Ai issue with how it handles armies? Yes they sorted that out as much as you can sort an AI out without it being Skynet.
1.2 Cicero patch dropped today and it's a beauty. Well I've been playing the beta all summer so I would be biased....

Monks and Mystics is ok but very minimal. I got it gifted to me as I wouldn't have bought it myself. I play with the devil whorshippers and that stuff turned off. When it was first released they...
Soon as Pompey had it's official release Pdx released a beta for Ciscero.

Empire was never finished and it's incomplete. Nice ideas and concepts but it's a real shame it's unfinished.
Napoleon is smaller in scope but way more more polished. But I really hate the sound bug...
The beta of the Pompey 1.1 patch is going to be on us pretty soon. So we can get our grubby mits on it before it is released in full on the 26th of this month
Full patch notes contained within...
No they have got to be within your diplomatic range. Of which you can increase with technology.

Heads up there's going to be some significant changes in regard to what some people would...
@ Sarkiss yes I'm missing Hastatii and not having Triarii just as a millitary tradition. I agree with Manual I Komnenos about area of recruitment. I've been spoilt by Europa Barbarorum, Rome Total...
I'm getting towards 70 hours played so far and I'm loving it. I can only really report on my experience of the game. Doesn't feel bare bones
Becuase it's a sequel of sorts to EU Rome it's neither...
@Sarkiss yes they do as far as I know. Though I haven't tried that yet particular in my current play through.
@Seleukos I Nikkator
Approx 2 minutes in of this episode of a Sparta playthrough...
Another source of possible advisers is not to kill your opponents after winning a war just for the popularity. Well I haven't used that myself :whistling
I've already started to use mods
Tired...
Patch 1.1 is coming around June time with a hot fix (patch 1.01) arriving next week.
Overall it's a good foundation for free updates along side expansions ala EU4 and such.
I didn't really like how horse archers handled in the first two games. Though these two games are still excellent though. Special mention for the ability to choose to dismount cavalry before battles...
Without a doiubt vanilla Rome 2 is more historically accurate/authentic than vanillla Rome 1
Modded they both are.
Which do I prefer? Well to be honest I like both and currently have both...
