    Default ChivTW Impressions

    Just finished installing it along with the soundpack.

    The atmosphere is spot on! The campaign map brings me back to the MTW days along with some great RTW features! England is amazing! More to come.

    I think we have just found the new best mod for Rome:TW out there...

    Seriously, although it's still an early beta...it's bloody brilliant! Thanks so much guys, I for one appriciate all the hard effort that went into making this. If I lived near you guys I'd take you to a pub/bar and buy you a few rounds

    The custom battles and new units are as cool as ever - well done guys.

    When playing a campaign, we should choose "Minor Campaigns" rather than "Grand Campaign", yes? So far the campaign seems to work well.

    However I am having trouble with the historical battles, being that I cannot start them. After clicking the arrow to begin, I crash out to my desktop. Installed over BI v1.6.

    My game doesn't work, is this for BI 1.6 or just BI?

    You install it the same, but after installing you right-click your Chivalry - Total War shortcut (on the desktop and in the start menu) and substitute RomeTW.exe in the target line with RomeTW-BI.exe

    No thing is everything. Every thing is nothing.

    I have BI, I installed over the main RTW folder. It works.

    Amazing! Aside from some placeholder stuff like unit cards and icons this mod is my favorite so far! I just finished a custom battle between england and france, you guys got it spot on with the battle physics! The cavalry really feels strong and mighty!

    Well done CTW Team!!! This is indeed an amazing modification, the units, the map, everything fits beautifully and your work wasn't done in vain. Hopefully, there won't be so many bugs to report .

    lol I released it maybe three hours ago
    But maybe it's too easy to play. You'll have a hard time if you play the campaign on vh though as there are no trade resources in.

    A few years into an English campaign, and it seems great so far. Very nice work.

    Playing as Byzantium the walls are the Eastern sort and on the city view structures have the appearance of construction sites. The personal names are still Eastern. Still no errors or bugs for me. The units look the part. I also like the little group models on the campaign map instead of the single soldier to represent armies. Good work!

    It depends on whether you play as BI or RTW. Small worked with RTW for me. Grand works with BI. That is my experience.
