TOTAL WAR Hotseat

[ccgr1121]

This is the Seleucid turn.

Carthage came up next on the Hotseat. Should it have, I thought I was next as the Britons?

[lukeyellow]

He's seen all of the positions. He's fine with it. He's still thinking about it so don't change the script.

[lukeyellow]

I had 2 hotseat scripts in my "show me" file would that be why carthage is up next? Or is something else wrong?

Yes, most likely. I think when playing a hotseat, you should only have the correct script in the folder. You can either make two separate game folders for each hotseat, or you can swap the scripts out before you play your turns.

[Basileos Predator]

I belive the easyest way to get things right is to have separate folders for each hs(like i have).

You should re-do your turn with the right script .

[ccgr1121]

I only have the one hotseat file, so the fault (if there is one) lies with Luke here. Perhaps you should redo your turn, and send the file to me (I'm subbing for Noob on the 1st turn).

[Willowran]

all above points are correct. CCGR, i know when you originally joined the hotseat the script i had uploaded was not the correct one (the latest should be the one you have).

Luke, what they said is correct- you should only have one 'hotseatscript' in your 'show me' folder. How did you even get two? :0

I subbed for carthage, and set the british turn. britons up

[lukeyellow]

when I downloaded the hotseat script it said "hotseat.script.txt(1)" So that's how. Should I replay? sorry for all of this. Since I was able to play my turn fine I thought everything else was fine.

[ccgr1121]

Okey-dokey, here's the Briton save.

Quicksave.7z

Greeks up.

Also, regarding chariots, are the Britons included in the 4-only rule, since only Seleucia and Pontus were mentioned.

[Willowran]

@Lukeyellow:dont bother replaying, we're good. Is the 'hotseatsript(1) the one you downloaded for this campaign, and the other the script from HS2?

@ CCGR1121: No, the britons can recruit as many chariots as they want. Pontus and Seleucid factions (especially the latter) have access to great infantry, great cavalry, and archers, AND seige equipment- they are great all around, and don't NEED to use the chariots as a crutch. Egypt especially has horrible line troops, and the britons start to falter late-game. Both factions i believe NEED large numbers of chariots, since their other troops are sub-par.

Greek Trun Set

@ Willowran: the "hotseat.script.txt(1)" is the one that I downloaded for this campaign.

[Bobfat]

I will play my turn this evening.

[Willowran]

@ Willowran: the "hotseat.script.txt(1)" is the one that I downloaded for this campaign.

aah. Then what i would suggest, is when THIS campaigns turn comes up, you turn your hoteat downloaded for THIS campaign into your 'hotseatscript.txt' file, and rename the other one into some thing else. when yu play the ther campaign, switch them again, and etcetc.

Alternatively (as predator suggested), copy your entire RTW game into a 'new folder' on your computer, stick THIS hotseat script there, and whenever you play you play from the different folder. (it's what i do, myself).

[Bobfat]

Alright, Scythia up.

[Willowran]

julii up.

The attached descr_strat os for CompleteNoob

[Basileos Predator]

Macedon up.

[lukeyellow]

Seleucids up. @ Willowran, the only problem with copying the files is that when I went to file to find my saved games, the file was missing.

[ccgr1121]

I'll wait and see if complete still wants me to sub for him. If he does, I'll play later.

[lukeyellow]

@ Wilowran, I don't think my friend is going to play. I've asked him several times and he just doesn't think he'll have the time for it

[ccgr1121]

Sorry for the delay, but my internet cut out for the weekend. Complete has asked me to sub for him again.

@Luke, Macedon came up when I loaded the save. Did you activate the script?
