    Re: Ambush 95% chance, fails every time

    In previous Total War games, I’ve heard that the game generated a seed for the game that would predetermine some things in the game. I’m not sure if it happened here, but it could be possible that...

    Re: What is the point of vassals?

    That’s actually sort of smart. The fact that the AI can actually think through diplomatic schemes in 3K is both fun and frustrating at the same time. You got that, and then you got the AI basically...

    Re: Ambush 95% chance, fails every time

    I don’t know if this is helpful, but I believe that the game rolls many things ahead of time to prevent save-scumming. You could probably move to the save before you went into ambush mode and try...

    Re: What is the point of vassals?

    On harder difficulties, I think the AI gets opinion bonuses with each other. For this reason, vassals of the AI are usually way less likely than vassals of the player to break off. When deciding...

    You don't. You can sail to Taiwan but clicking on the sea near the coast and then clicking onto the island itself to land when your men get near. It takes roughly 10-25 turns to get there if you...

    Re: Blood DLC

    I can definitely see why CA would charge for Blood DLC and at least they charge very little for it. It’s a shame they can’t include blood in the basegame or else the rating will be increased,...

  18. Re: Is anyone else feeling a bit jaded with Total War?

    I agree with you, but TW3K battles are somewhat repetitive and boring due to a lack of unit variety. Nevertheless, it’s nice to see actual diplomacy being carried out and a more interactive campaign...

    Re: What is the point of vassals?

    So they’re offering to become your vassal and then dragging you into wars once you accept? I’ve had this happen to me when I accepted Cao Cao’s vassalage request, but it seems like the AI in general...

    A different start date would be interesting, but I don't think it would be described as a whole new game-mode. It's also curious that they haven't announced this to their western audience, but I did...

    Re: What is the point of vassals?

    If your vassal keeps declaring war then you need to vassalize the right type of lord. If I recall correctly, Liu Bei is a good vassal if you are significantly more powerful than him, and AI factions...
