I have a suggestion; Maybe you could add an territory and city in the Coast of Brazil as a colony of Portugal, the city of Pernambuco wich was the capital of Portuguese Brazil. Altough I think adding cities is an insane amount of work so its probably not easy to happen.

[Lordsith]

Unfortunately the coast of Brazil is hardcoded, so it cannot be added some regions there.

Thanks for the reply

So, I ran a series of test battles to compare the effectiveness of the field cannon and the artilleryman's hand-cannon. For the field cannon, I ran three test battles on the Alpine Pass battlemap, with an Austrian 24-pounder cannon unit against a unit of Prussian militia. The results of the tests were 51 Prussians dead due to cannon fire in 4 minutes, 16 in 3 minutes 43 seconds and 43 in 3 minutes 53 seconds. I repeated the the hand cannons. The results were 74 dead in 3 minutes 56 seconds, 49 dead in 3 minutes 51 seconds and 58 dead in 4 minutes 4 seconds. What was most noticeable was the fact that the Prussians routed before going into melee only when I was using the hand-cannons. They managed to engage the artillerymen in melee in the field cannon tests. The average death per second for the field cannon was 36 men for 231 seconds. The average for hand-cannons was 60 men for 237 seconds.

I know I'm being pretty whiny about this and I apologise for it, but Lordsith, in your next update, could you please include an alternative for non-hand-cannon armed artillerymen? It would really help balance the odds when fighting artillery units. And also, could the invulnerability of fort walls be toned down a bit? A 60-gun volley and not a scratch on the wall. Thanks!

Damn, that sucks LordSith Whats the purpose of the troops sitting on the coast of Brazil now though? Were they a test? Whats the status for the African regions? BTW, I'll be slow in posting here since im on my old online computer... Damn thing hates total war center

[bavil]

i cant seem to makeit work please someone help me

[Mr Kriegtooth]

Welcome to the site, and to the forum

Anyway, download the 12 parts listed under Main Files, then the 6 under 4.4, then 4.43 hotpatch

Keep all 12 parts in the same location. Unrar the FIRST part, it will unrar the others. Once thats done, open the new Imperial Destroyer folder, and move the Data folder into your Empire TW folder.

Repeat this with the 4.4 Patch and the Hot Patch

Take the EARLY script, or the only script, from the patch folder and move it to your scripts folder found in LocalApps/Roaming/TheCreativeAssembly/Empire Total War

Then you can move the various options to the data folder in the Empire total war folder

Game should then work

If that doesnt work, make sure you have a clean installation of Empire

Hello, can somebody please inform me how to make Jacobite Britain playable in the Campaign, I feel like playing them through but I am terrible when it comes to adjusting TW games to do what I want. If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated.

True. Muskets are also TOO accurate in the hands of low quality troops. Seeing MILITIA killing 5-7 of your elite guard from maximum range with the first volley is crazy. High quality troops should mop the floor with militia and low quality infantry because those guys should barely be able to cause any casualties at maximum range and their rate of fire should be really bad. Reload times in general do need to be increased.

[napoleon boneaparte]

So, Lordsith, when's the next update incoming? I'm putting my Prussian campaign on hold in hopes that there'll be a fix for the OP artillerymen and the indestructible fort walls.

Next update will be released in near future

[Mr Kriegtooth]

Looks good!

Im gonna start a new Bavaria campaign soon, or maybe another Austrian. I love Austria

Curious, ive never actually destroyed a fort in vanilla, darth mod, or Imperial Destroyer. Didnt know they COULD be destroyed

[napoleon boneaparte]

LOL. So all you did was throw units up the walls until someone wins? I tend to be rather slow and cautious by battering the walls until they are nearly destroyed. Then, I would send a unit or two close to the walls. Normally, the AI would rush to man the cannons and that's when I'll fire one final volley to bring down the wall and its defenders. Since the last update though, the walls are impenetrable by any form of artillery, so it's rather tardy...
