Hey folks,
I've played TATW on and off for a while now; I've tried DaC and MOS and am currently almost finished a gondor campaign in MOS. The one issue I've come across time and time again is bad ai in siege battles. It's worst in Cair Andros where the ai will send 2 siege towers to your walls and the rest of the army will simply line up outside the walls, and in Minas Tirith where the ai knocks down the gate and sits in the square doing nothing until the timer runs out. Does anyone know whether MOS and DaC tweak the ai or if there are other mods that might provide a solution for this? Also any tips that I can use when dealing with the ai are also welcome
Thanks!
I know the Alternative Patch sub-mod has done a lot of work on custom settlements within the confines of the game engine to make sure the AI does its best during sieges, it could be worth checking out if you are after something like that.

Cair Andros was taken out of the latest version of MOS for being a buggy mess in more ways than one. That one should no longer trouble you. The problem in Minas Tirith also really should not be happening.
MOS and DAC definitely tweak the AI, but there is only so much modders can do, given the hard-coded limits of the game. With the nature of some custom settlements and the difficulty of modding the AI, this is probably the best we are going to get unfortunately.
The thing is that MOS uses most of Leo's settlements already and to the best of my knowledge DAC uses all of them, so unfortunately you are not going to see massive improvement. In some cases there might be less instances of enemy troops not moving at all, as Leo's settlements are made with his map in mind and DAC & MOS might have some pathing issues.
Hello everybody, i install M2TW again and i wanna play Third Age. I remember that before there was a submod got more faction on third age.
I want to give me suggestions of submods to play.
Is there any way to add units to Third Age?
Is there any way to full control AI in battle or is there any possibility of increasing the number of unit cards per general. Example from 20 to 40 or something like that?
Thanks
Every one of the large submods to TATW, except Official Patch, adds factions. Most factions is in DaC and PCP. Most units I presume are in DaC, MOS and PCP.
If merely more of those things are what you want, I'd suggest DaC.
Yes, you can mod in units. You find tutorials in the Mod Workshop: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/forum...-and-Resources
Nope and nope.

Thank u . can i play DaC and MOS together? or need choice only onde?
You can have both installed (I have five installations of TATW and TATW-submods ATM), just do not install DaC and MOS into the same folder, then nothing will work: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...erent-submods)

which sub-mod would people recommend for a hot-seat campaign? knowing that some features do not work in hot-seat mode.
Hello there,
which submods have most custom settlements for the minor and less important cities/villages? For me it's all about immersion, so when i do battle in little villages i don't want to see the vanilla Medieval 2 settlement types.

Check with DaC; not sure if their none-M2 generic settlements are in the latest released version or not.

thanks man. another thing what just came into my mind is proper defending. which submod handles it best that AI defends their cities with big armies instead of small garrisons. if that is even possible. I guess probably there are garrison scripts needed for this to work.

Hi guys, I love this mod, definitely the best for Medieval 2. However, from my time playing vanilla with Stainless Steel, one thing I miss is recruiting local units from the region you are in. Like if you conquered the holy land, you'd be able to recruit Templars, or North Africa, and you'd be able to recruit Africans.
Is there any mod like this? How hard would it be to modify files to make this possible?
there is no mod like his AFAIK
I dont know how hard it is to mod however sorry

Hello everyone, I have been looking for this submod that had this scripted event that when playing as Rhun or Khand you could turn to the good side and you would be rewarded with Eastern dwarf reinforcements and two armies led by the Blue Wizards, does anyone remember this one? Many thanks

Hi, I think it was the Khand script in Divide and Conquer.
Hello everybody,
can someone told me were i can find, Baron Samedi's Submods Colection for Third Age Total War?
unfortunately the download links are no longer active. I would be really happy if one of you could help me, maybe one of you still has the file and could send it to me.
I have already tried to contact Baron Samedi here in the forum, but the last time he was active was in 2016.
First and foremost, I am looking for the Additional Units Mod [AUM] 3.0 released for TATW 3.2 which was created by the user augostinos,
but of course I would also be very happy about the complete submod collection.
Thanks in advance.
