I think I found even easier way to do it. Just go with two armies like you said, but one will be used as cannon fodder. I will just push those cheap units to soften up the enemy, then...

I was thinking about taxes, because the guide shows that they are more impactful on lower classes. Yesterday I have thoughts about making some pleb army just to die gloriously, but I'm wondering how...

I remember when I was playing a year ago, I didn't have problem with having decent noble population. It was about 5-10% of my total manpower, so there wasn't a problem recruiting few units in a...

Temple gives +1%, but only on the 4th level, which is only available later in the game. I'm having problems with population in my early game in first 30 turns. Even if I got about +2% nobles and +1%...

In my recent DeI campaigns I have a lot of problems in maintaining my nobles population. When I played more then year ago I didn't have any problems, but lately I played Rome and Armenia and I got...

For the first time I play Rome in DeI. Senate just appointed one of rival families leaders for consul. He was nominated like 15 turns ago and he is still a Pro-Consul. Will he be a consul till the...

I had this event playing as Epirus and fighting Romans. It basically spawns a Roman army every 20 turns while Italy is in turmoil. By "turmoil" it means Italia or Latium are contested.

Okay. I just build harbour in my region that had no food and now my population is dying out, but at least my army is "buying supplies overseas" by the harbour so they are not facing starvation.

@Dago
My main problem is that I'm losing men to attrition while they are stationed in my regions, regions that are well suplied with food. I understand that roads might be blocked so I cant supply...

In my Baktria campaign I have some difficulties fighting Taksashila to the south. I'm invading their province of Maka and every year I got event that desert roads are blocked in summer. Even when I...

Thanks for quick response. I thought its about culture, that I dont have enough to recruit, but it was a long shot because I can recruit other hellenic units like hoplites.

No. I thought units from reforms are greyed out on the side panel. Like Baktrioi Thureophoroi, they are recruitable, but greyed out so I know that I cant get them. You are saying i need reforms for...

Recently I started my Baktria campaign and I can't recruit Baktrian Pezoi. They are supposed to be recruitable from Muster Fields, I got about 53% hellenic culture in the province. Am I missing...

When you said that you manage to kill one of them every turn, did you mean "kill" or "wound"? When you wound them they will be back in few turns. When you kill their best agents for good, they could...

In my campaign as Palmyra Gauls are having a cakewalk. Aurelian is getting rekt by Gothi, Gauls and pretty much world hates him (his clients are ripped appart all over the world). Tetricus has pretty...

I don't know if you meant it that way, because Bretonnia and Empire are different factions but the same race - humans. They are very close to each other, have different units so there is variety and...

I got it why my charge was so inefective. Those Skavens got ability called net that can stop enemy unit for few seconds. They were smartly using it on my cavalrymen while they were charging and then...

I was pretty far ahead in my Dark Elves campaign and one thing just annoyed me a bit. Im using Dark Riders with shields as my shock cavalry and they got beat by Skaven missile units. I think it was...

Nice work on this one. Rome II always lacked this personal attachment to the characters because of no ingame family tree. When there will be some historical characters game will gain this roleplay...

I'm using the commercial stimulation edict and have a slave trader level three in Makedonia and my slave numbers are sitting pretty at 75% increasing my wealth in province. I'm playing about 40 turns...

Thanks, I will surely read it all. I think I have some solution, but it might be a bit cheesy. I can't recruit new generals from my royal house, so I will recruit them for other houses and then adopt...

In my recent campaign with Epirus I have few problems managing my faction. I read the guide and few other threads, but some questions are still unanswered.
1) Did my government system has anything...

Thanks for the tips. Totally forgot about this option. I only need to have this supply ship in my fleet or I need to "activate" it somehow?

I just merged my land army with fleet. Moved them to open sea and lost 300 men next turn from attrition.

Couldn't find any related topic to this case, so I'm starting new thread. I noticed that when my land army go on sea its facing a mass desertion each turn. Am I doing something wrong or is there any...

Okay. I made this "test". Just recruited some units so other factions won't conquer Rome too fast. After 10 turns with negative PO (about -20) population dropped from 54k to 46, but 2k were from...

@PietrolEremita
I'm gonna try to play Rome today later this evening, just skip those 15 turns doing nothing and see how big the population drop will be. I believe it's unpossible to have no...

I'm playing this new version (with population system) of mod about 2 weeks - 50 hours of gameplay. I played factions smaller then Rome and I never had problem with the recruits, even when I had one...

I started my Epirus campaign last week and it went suprisingly good. Firstly I started recruiting fresh units in Apollonia and in the same time Pyrrhus gathered some mercenaries in Italy. I...

As a fellow countryman I can add: sto lat, niech żyje nam :thumbsup2

I find playing hordes quite easy, but still prefer playing standard factions. Few tips for someone starting as a migrating faction:

1. You can't lose any of your hordes at the start. Playing every...

Does anyone even read those tips that are up there when you start up campaign? There are many people out there complaining about not being able to conquer cities, not having cities as Chaos, etc. I...

I would really like if Kislev was coming as the new nation. They got some great units, they should be something a lot different then other empire states.

Ladders are pretty weak assault option, which is good because of how CA make those fort towers hit hard. Many of your siege towers just don't make it to the walls. When they get there, they are...

One thing that came to my mind during this dispute. Most of us total war vets (I'm assuming there arent many new players reading these topics) call the game too simple, very easy, but we forget how...

I was just about to wrote same thing. If its so disturbing to start all over again then why just don't save game after beating secessionists and go back to that save not to start all over again?

For me the economy is a lot easier then in Attila. In Attila you have to balance with squalor, public order and food. Now you only need money for upgrading your buildings. I'm playing Chaos and it's...

Guy has a point. You said you were frustrated that you can't conquer Vampire settlement. When you are starting a new campaign all mechanics and faction playstyle is listed. There is very clearly...

If by challenge you meant dumbing down sieges, you are right. Now you only rush for walls, while you can't even use siege weapons to destroy walls.


Yepp, I got hellfire cannons, which should be...

Hmm. Maybe I'm missing something, but when I siege enemy city I can only build battering rams and siege towers, I didn't see any ladders. I dont think you can use ladders in cities with higher tier...
