Hi everyone.

It has always been an ambition of mine to beat the Gaul campaign in Rome Total War. It has frustrated me since childhood, and while I know I probably can do it, I've yet to see it...

Uh... my faction leader (Reunited Kingdom, the guy you start with) just went shadow cult with the Shadow touched trait. Its a little inconvenient given that my smaller, less developed or peripheral...

Well, that happened. This isn't a real update, just a bit of fun that happened while I was testing out the recording software. I figured you guys would approve.

For the record,...

Nevermind. Spent an entire day uploading this video only for it to turn out Loilo screwed up the audio. I just lost an hour of footage and I'll have to rerun this part of the campaign again. >(

Part 3: Breakthrough!

Part 2. Breakthrough (?)

Good to hear you enjoyed the video. Resistance is definitely starting to stiffen. I won't say any more lest I spoil the video.

Hi everyone. I'm Napoleon Complex, and I've decided to have a go at recording a campaign for Mongol Invasion. I thought that such an old campaign might be of some interest here.

...

Sympathies Neph, that must have been quite a panic.

Hi folks.

I wanted to write a post explaining why I stopped updating this.

The trouble I'm having is that the story I wanted to write is clashing with the actual events in the game.

Flavius...

Ok, I don't know if this has been mentioned somewhere in the last 25 pages, but formation lock upon clicking move is a must. Without having to group my units to do it. I hate groups. In multiplayer I...

I'll emphasise my previous point; pre-orders let CA show their publisher that the game will sell well early on, so they can justify and receive a budget for developing future DLC early on instead of...

I think there is an element of time to this. CA needs a certain amount of time to develop X product, and a budget to do so. If SEGA has to wait until all the sales figures are in before making a...

As long as the campaign preview is good I'm prepared to swing behind CA on this one. They've set out their position fairly well and there's nothing I can't understand there. Regarding the whole "why...

5 days to take Taiwan doesn't seem realistic. Unless you give the Taiwanese such a shock that morale collapses and their armed forces literally cannot put up a fight anymore. I guess it's physically...

Hmm... an intercept mode might be useful. Basically, if you have movement points left over, you could order an army into a stance where they will automatically move in tandem with an enemy army that...

Not a bad suggestion. I think I'll do just that.

Uhh...

I'm on the fence with Total War in general, if only because I can't really justify it to myself these days. I've not completed a campaign in years now. Still... as I still enjoy loading up...

The Gauls ran quickly for men on foot. Desperation drove them on. They could not, however, quite run fast enough. With the hill in sight the Roman cavalry caught up with them.
...

I'm gonna put my replies to comments at the end this time to avoid spoilers. Onwards we go!

Thank you for the advice and continued support. I do tend to actually play music while I write these things, as it helps me get into the mindset. I've taken onboard your advice about update speed;...

Stirring stuff. I think the Spartans will quickly come to rue their decadence. Good riddance.

Thank you for the encouragement. I've recently been discouraged after a few setbacks in real life. Hearing something positive is good right now. Apologies for this taking so long to update, I did not...

Thanks again for the encouragement.

That is roughly my plan. The idea will be to quickly take Mediolanum and Patavium and get rid of the Gallic armies there, before sailing to Narbo Martius. The...

I am definitely going to try this mod when I get the chance.

The north had not been idle while Rome was fighting for control of the Mediterranean.

Thank you. I'm glad you're enjoying this so far. This is where Rome Vanilla's lack of historical accuracy can actually work in a story's favour. The idea of three Roman families dominating the whole...

Thank you for your kind words, I hope not to disappoint your interest. We now move into the second half, where Segesta is taken one more time and we see how well Flavius's mob acquits itself.

Flavius Julius was having a bad day.

Most of his days...

Have some Royal Rapiers to the Face Moblins!

Sorted. Strangely enough I still don't seem to have all the Hyrule Historia missions listed, but that's another issue and not necessarily a bug.

Thanks guys.

Playing the game I've only got the Ancient era missions. I've completed them all and no extras have unlocked, am I missing something?

Not putting this in bugs as I'm under the impression there is...

I installed it instead to an area outside of the program files, but still in C:. The mod was installed into the mod folder of my Medieval II files, inside the SEGA folder. The folder the files were...

...or something like that.

This is a weird one. I'm starting the game up using the AUI file (can't see any other launcher so I'm guessing that's the one) and I get about as far as selecting my...
