Remember the campaign AI in Empire:Total War? If I played as India faction, I could swap a territory with a European faction. I would then be able to take European territories, and if I only hit one...

I'm so far ahead in my campaign that I'm just going to run armies around in forced march mode and make a 20 cav unit army (which may be my best chance at wiping out all of an enemy army with a...

The OCD in me wants to grab a few more of these, and I had some questions on a few of them.

1) does the "all cav army winning a battle" have to be 20 units? I won with 6 units of cav (two of which...

I finally won an economic victory as Rome. I started a new campaign and picked them because they only needed 20 trade partners. The tough part was keeping enough of them while taking enough...

An enjoyable one relating to this game is Legionary:The (Unoffocial) Roman Soldier's Manual. It covers everything about joining around 100 A.D. , including basic training, daily life, enemies,...

You just need the two armies close to one another. The arrows onscreen when moving to attack on the campaign map show Yellow arrows for nearby armies that appear as reinforcements. I do this often,...

The Selucids and all their satrapies make it hard for me as Rome. Finally decided to fight them even though I haven't had the civil war yet. The Hellinized nations are all friendly, as are most of...

Have any of you got an economic victory? I've had 2 Military and 2 Cultural and decided to start a new campaign and chase the Economic as Rome. Seems pretty difficult.
90 settlements (easy)
Control...

Hopefully they add the ability to trade with factions who don't have a port. An economic victory as Carthage is extremely difficult, as you have to trade with 25 factions. By the endgame, to have the...

Well, I know software developers in three different companies, and they all say that the complaining in forums amounts to absolutely nothing. They know what needs to be fixed, and they know the...

No wonder the OP looked familiar. I read that book last week. Now I'm trying to find where I put the (Unofficial) Legionary's Guide. Another good read that gets into the tactics.

I am a HORRIBLE ally for any of the AI factions. I like to wait outside their cities that are on the edge of revolt and take them just before they reach the rebels with their own troops. They...

True, it wasn't like Hollywood makes it look. They had enough space for units to pass through them. How else do the velites get to safety? I've read this in several books about the Roman Army.

I had a Germanic army attack my town. Auto resolve said it would be a decisive defeat, so I controlled the battle. Mounted spear throwers on wall, had infantry in a v formation behind gate. The enemy...

No, you beat them, and then decide whether to be an empire or continue the Republic.

I've been using. And old saved game post patch with no problems. End of turn much faster now. No real change (for me) on battle FPS.

I wonder how much of it is unit experience in addition to the better stats as you get the right tech and building progression? Yes, you thin out experience with troops lost, but the overall unit...

I auto battles unless it says I don't have a huge advantage. This is due to the time it takes to end turns. Once that gets sped up,I'm back to fighting the vast majority of battles. Just trying to...

6 out of 10 is pretty much where I would put it too, but I'm hoping it can be patched to an 8 or 9 eventually. It's actually more of a challenge to auto resolve than fight battles, as it gives the AI...

I currently have no friends playing Rome II, but that is hardly shocking. They are a bunch of cheap bastages, and will buy it later when it is on sale, like they did RTW. Meanwhile, I will continue...

At this point, I am beta testing and sending what I find to CA. That's why I am using exploits . I save the purely competitive mode for multiplayer, but have not started that yet. I will eventually,...

The AI attacked an ungarrisoned city of mine. I was outnumbered 8 to 1. I figured that I was going to lose anyway but wanted to cause some damage. I went to the battle and hid my wimpy home troops in...

It booted me midgame and put in the fix. Lost a couple turns that way. Still, nice to get fixes quick.

I have seen something like this with pretty much every game ever released by anyone. Name ONE time it ever worked....

You think a protest by .001% of the player base will have an effect and it's CA that lives in virtual reality?

Humble Warrior? Back in the ETW days, you said that you would never buy another CA product again. I guess it isn't a CA release without bugs and HW to complain about them.
BTW, I love Steam. I have...
