What - to prove I'm actually playing??? You think I may have resurrected this sub-forum whilst living in a make believe fantasy world??? :whistling
It might be possible, but tricky - given that...
Quick update...
Au571 and things are going well - except for one thing. Those pesky Carthaginians have a fleet that contains a 'silvered' armoured and experienced 'Decere' (iirc) - it doesn't...
Having actually dusted off my 'special' PC and hoping that it carries on working (8 years and 1 month since I last played) - to use when it's either too hot or even perhaps too cold to play in the...
Well, not many people playing is one thing - and, indeed, because this isn't a part of playing the game! ;)
In short, however, you would need both the information from the EDB (iirc) to track the...
I only asked because Alex was tweaked for better Phalanx behaviour. It always has been a problem and, yes, that the AI doesn't use Guard may be a part of it.
Having now seen this, I can add some further detail.....
The source, indeed, is dear old Polybius' Bk6 - give it a good read, particularly Ch23. Read it carefully and you will find that the...
Probably not - but back perusing this forum I can ask a question that might lead to things getting better....
Are you running on 'Alex'? Phalanxes often seem to perform better with that as a base...
A proper forum!
Passionate RS2.5/2.6 tester, gentle script modder and devotee of the best battle experience possible.
Was just thinking of re-visiting Rome 2 when someone mentioned a Remastered...
A voice from the past...
I might indeed be up for more play/battle-testing after all the 100's of hours last time. A little gentle script modding on the side.... ?
And a friendly wave to dear...
Do you use other RTW Mods?
Have you installed RS entirely in its own - unique - directory?
Firstly I would note that the OP seems to miss one of the main reducers to EM (although, see next) - Wives!
Promoting wives to 'Matron' now gives a -1% to EM - and, if you get everyone married,...
So - attack them.
Why should they do all the work!
The short answer is, sadly for you, neither.....
Dear old RTW doesn't know anything about separate GPUs (they didn't have such things when it was originally coded) and there are no software calls...
I'm sorry, but that simply isn't a true statement - and, I suspect, is certainly one encouraged by gaming experience rather than historical knowledge.
At the time period we are talking, Rome could...
I think the better question is - whether the Romans ever fielded Rorarii - ever?
I've never seen any evidence that the 'army structure' in Livy I,43 ever seemed to have been actually used.....
...
@Seleukos...
You are entirely correct - it's just that (due to the Research requirements) one is unlikely to get anywhere near the Lvl IV Dockyard until at least the later Marian period.
But,...
0-turn.....
It's not my thing at all...
For me it's been CD on a standalone PC always.....
Currently in a corner - but it might come back.
Interesting - because I find their javelins just great; particularly from the back, but essential when dealing with Elephants and Chariots.
They're also not really skirmishers - better thought of...
For me - still - (and I've now been playing DeI-modded R2 for a while now) - the battles here with v2.6 are the best I've known since table-top days.
If it's a happy mistake - then could it be changed to Ariminium for 'historical' reasons? Ravenna was 'the' place.
Here's another 'Port' oddity that I believe is not a 'bug' per se, but is certainly an anomaly that should be addressed (I think).
Roma suffers from a lack of 'Military Ports' - and there are only...
v2.6 stats give the best ancient battle experience I've ever seen.
I love the Antesignanii - wouldn't not have them.
Yes indeed - move those 'characters'. Because the original character is still 'ill'; he'll get another.
Damn useful.
I'm afraid your reading of 'historical record' & 'Polybius' is wrong by a couple of smaller things:
- There are no 'Velite Maniples' - there are 1000 Velites spilt evenly amongst the heavy...
Just last night.....
Starting new game as Roma - my little fleet (fighting the battle) of 7 ships defeated 2 x 9 Transport stacks (goodness knows why the Taras army set sail) and the Taras...
Hah! Here's a funny 'bug' I've just found.....
(As Massalia) - in Massalia itself (as I've found when playing Roma indeed - and similar to Carthage/Athens/Rhodos) there is a 'special' port...
Yet a further request to overhaul the 'Experience Bonuses' - having reached the second 'Greek' reform in a Massalia campaign...
With the Roman Empire now covering half the map and deep into their...
Part of it is that the total will never exceed 20.
I know that, if there's a Port with garrison, then they will always appear. After that it's supposed to be the 'best' 20, but that doesn't...
I would like to suggest a review of all the '+1 Experience for.....' bonuses from the various Barracks, Training Grounds and Military Temples for each faction to ensure consistency and ensure it's...
Unless something radically changed - give them Greek Physicians.
Ideally one of your older generals takes ill - and he will then get that character - move him away and he'll get another. Soon all...
Interesting - because this happened to me yesterday, but I didn't think it was too bad...... Now however.......
The fleet in question was indeed blockading with another in support and then they...
Note: (Unless mistaken...) - I believe what you're after isn't actually possible with the base Mod - for Marian Reforms require Imperium V; so you're well into the mid-game and well outside Italy...
When it comes to 'campaign movement range'...
Bear in mind that the humble 'wagon' is the speed at which armies move (individual units (which we don't have in R2) can move faster in own territory...
The short answer is that no one really knows - just like we don't know when the Lorica Segmentata/Segmented came into use; let alone how universal it was.
The armour, however, required new...
All artillery moved in wagons.
It would be a rare and very specialised and limited army that didn't.
No, no - please, no.....
The whole point about being able to enjoy DeI-modded R2 - and particularly for Roma - is that every campaign is supposed to be different. Repeatable many times, but...
Another little Roman tweak I would love.....
We can upgrade most of our units when the Marian Reforms (perhaps as late as Imperial) come around, but not our Archers. Now recruiting Archers as...
Looks like you have neatly come to the same conclusion the Romans actually did!
And also don't forget that the Punic Wars lasted for nearly 120 years - making peace twice in-between.
Curiously, how do you see their morale? From the picture I can see 'your' base morale is 81!
More importantly however - it looks as if you are charging around the battlefield wearing your troops...
