Factions You Love To Pick On, Harass and Bully

You take a screenshot with the same button as you do whenyou're not in game - prt scr, then you can find it in .../tgas (sorry cant remember and im on another pc so i cant check). After that you have to get the .tga to some other format that can be uploaded online. I do it with picasa as it can open tga images , i zoom in to 100%, left click and select copy, open paint and then paste and then save, and there you go.

Also use this guide to get high resolution screenshots http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=399622

Russia for no apparent reason, i always aly with them and ask for military access in exchange for military assistance against mongols, then i back stab them and take all their castles so they cant build proper units. (I know, i'm sad backstabber)

[Punic Hoplite]

Italian factions and Spain. Italy just is a pain with all the small, decently powerful and annoying factions (Milan, Papal States, ect) and Spain just because I love with messing with the Iberian powers.

[Double A]

I know half of the forum has said this already, but Milan. There's something so cathartic about purging their taint off the face of the earth.

Shouldnt be hard to repel if you have Hamburg, it is hard to take a fortress for one, and if you garrison it well its an easy slaughter for Denmark.

I always take Denmark early, No one else tries to take it and you get your back cowered.

I concur! As HRE the easiest is to take out Denmark ASAP. Like siege Hamburg, wait for them to wander off to Norway, and siege/take Aarhus, their only city.

[General Maximus]

When I play as Danes, I try to take more and more wealth through pillaging. I land in Nottingham or York, capture the settlement, sack it, and then I get back on longboats leaving the settlement to rebel or be taken back by England, and then I go back to the capital. After 20 turns or so, I land in the British isles again, sack and again flee back. You may or may not believe, but I played a whole campaign on low taxes, using only this pillage rampage method to fund my army.

But I mostly play as either England, or Byzantines or the HRE.

For England, I pick on Scots until I destroy them. Then France is my next target. I never destroy them, I just harass them. I set up huge ambush armies in the forests and crossroads, making it impossible for them to do any manoeuvrings. They get steamrolled by HRE. After that, I go on a Crusade and pick on Turks, Moors or Egyptians. Then I massacre them but not completely destroy them.

As Byzantium, my first goal is to secure Anatolia. I hire an assassin and kill the Turkish dynasty leaving whole Anatolia as rebels. Then I take on Venice, keeping them hard pressed in their own territories. I fortify out the whole Danube bridge line, securing the north. Then I massacre the Egyptians.

Since HRE is extremely powerful and has good economy, I take on Denmark and Milanese at the same time. Then I go for Poland and Sicilians, and I set up ambushes in their own territories. By the time their larger armies reach me, they are already half dead. I loot it all except their capital.

Look in your M2TW folder

Look in your M2TW folder

Thanks, I'll attempt to do so

[FountainGuard]

I don't mean to side-track the thread, but the files on my M2TW disc are as follows: directx9, launcher, main, data1, data2, _setup.dll, 00000001.TMP, Autorun, data1.hdr, DrvMgt.dll, ISSetup.dll, Launch, Launch, layout.bin, SECRDV.SYS, Setup, setup, setup, setup, setup.inx, setup.isn. In conclusion, I don't see /tgas.

Not the disc

Navigate to the M2TW folder. As in hard drive/program files/Sega/m2tw. But you could also just do printscreen, exit the game, and open paint. Paste the image, and wallah

Just look around? Nothing is going to happen to the game unless you modify/remove the files that are essential for the game(tgas defineatly arent).

For more answers to M2TW frequently asked questions, see attached.

Windows 7 has a search box in the bottom left-hand of the screen, just type .tga into it and get it to search for your files.

Papal States whenever I play a Christan faction.


The Pope deserves it for daring to give me commands!

[Jackster]

Milan, those annoying Crossbowmen and their tendency to come screw with you for no obvious reason.
Even in my Portugal Campaign when I am all the way in Iberia and the Milanese are at war with HRE, Venice, Papal State and Sicily all at the same time. They still somehow manage to find time to ship a stack of troops over to besiege me out of nowhere...
So I ask the Pope for a Crusade and Exterminate the bastards.
