I use Jack Lusted's "better AI" mod which works great for vanilla so that may be an option for you but I have no idea if it will work for retrofit.
Please refresh my memory, you can't play SS without Kingdoms correct?
Try Jack Lusted's "better AI" mod. All it does is make the AI in vanilla play smarter on the campaign map and in battles. You won't have this issue with the mod. At Least I never did in my last game...
Very good guide. Well thought out and you put a lot of time and effort into making this. Good Job.
It's very interesting but I play vanilla with Jack Lusted's better AI mod so I get different results. The AI seem to attack less and keep alliances longer. For those like me who play vanilla but...
I always take my neighbor regions because of distance to capitol and it just looks more professional. I make an exception for crusades. I also play mostly the original 4 games. For me the games lost...
I don't play stainless steel but I have heard many good things about but I also know it's buggy. Pixelated Apollo and LegendofTotalWar are two of my favorite youtubers and Pixelated had a video of...
Well the settlement had a squalor level of 65%. My research led me to believe there is no way to reduce this after max walls are built and it just keeps going. This leads to unhappy people and I...
Thanks. I appreciate the response. I knew about the security they provide. It just is sad that there is no good way to reduce squalor in this game except with the black death plague. Well now I know...
I did a google search and can't find nothing online except one post that said spies can bring down unrest in your cities. Do spies increase happiness in your city? Everything I find says they they...
Sorry. I wish I could help you but I can't. The only thing I can think of is the patch. Do you have the official 1.2 patch installed? I have a cd so not sure if steam included it. The other thing you...
I'm glad it helped. I hope everyone gives this mod a try. Who would not want the stupid AI to play smarter and better? This mod changes nothing in the game but the AI and works with out without...
Your welcome and yes I agree that the Geisha was put in just to end games as she is very powerful. Then again it is very easy to lose a game when your leader dies of old age and you did not get a...
You can also try Jack Lusted's AI mod. It's hard to find but I posted a link to it awhile back. It does not fix bugs per say but it makes the AI a lot smarter.
The better campaign AI will actually...
The game is so easy to beat so i'm not sure why you're worried about stakes. Watch a few campaigns by LegendofTotalWar in youtube and you will see just how easy it is to win.
I never deploy...
Pixelated Apollo has some good videos on unit matches up and even a video explaining the top ten best units for each category. Archers, Cavalry, Melee etc. It's on youtube and worth checking out. I...
There is a mod by Jack Lusted (better AI mod) that does not change the game but improves the AI. It makes them smarter on the campaign map and more likely to keep alliances and in battles they play...
The first 4 games were the best in my opinion. Shogun, Medieval 1 and 2 and Rome. I still play Shogun and it is best played with the expansion aka Gold Edition found on steam.
I am not sure if you can remove them from the game but after watching LegendofTotalWar on youtube play a Mori campaign he showed that 3-4 assassins will usually kill a geisha with only some of the...
First there is a mod to improve the AI. (Better campaign AI and better battle AI) With this mod the AI will actually keep true to your alliance most of the time and your reputation with them is much...
Stainless Steel seems to be the one I see the most besides vanilla when watching youtube but I don't play multiplayer so don't quote me on that.
The AI is broken. With Lusted's AI mod they are improved some but you still can't trust them. Nothing you can do there. Even with military access which allows your armies to travel in another...
Thanks I gave you some rep points :) You have done a very good job with this. Keep up the great work.
I used to play this game back in the day and plan on buying it again soon. I will check this out. Thanks for your hard work. I would love to see a youtube campaign for M1TW from some vets and Legend...
Wow you may just be the best M1TW player ever. I think LegendofTotalWar needs to give your challenge a go. that would be awesome. In his Dane campaign he did a year ago he said you could not blitz in...
Sorry I did not see you already knew Legend had the game. I did not even know Steam has this old game for sale. I was going to look on Amazon but maybe I will get it through steam. Thank you.
I recently watched LegendofTotalWar play a Mori campaign which he just uploaded to youtube not long ago. Maybe you can ask him what his OP system is as he saved the game many times. I would think he...
I noticed that the Danes and even Portugal will invade the british isles as the AI. The Scotts as the AI will rarely attack england if it is an AI and England will rarely attack Scotland but that may...
Your work is amazing. I would rep you if I knew how. Thanks for the hard work and time you put into these tests. Everybody can learn something new from this :)
Watchtowers and Forts can be built by your generals if you did not know. Forts are great for blocking the enemy and you only need a single unit inside. If they attack it then you have another turn to...
The Byzantines are actually pretty easy to play as even though they are one of the hardest factions for beginners. If you have Jack Lusted's AI mod diplomacy is much better and alliances can be kept...
It sounds like a good rule but then I commanders cost money and not everyone can afford a lot of them. I just don't see the point in only upgrading some of my settlements while others remain poor. In...
I would not know. I always auto manage all of my cities myself and keep the taxes at normal unless my people are angry. I still get rich and I can keep building in all of my cities. If you let the AI...
I think the Turks are actually the easiest faction as Legend Total War beat the game with them in less than 10 turns.
I am currently playing as the HRE and by turn 20 I had a huge empire and I...
I wish I could help you but I don't know anything about these things. Hopefully someone can help you. I stick to Vanilla with updated AI and the game works fine.
It's possible an update is causing your game to crash. That's the problem I had.

You really know what you are doing. Great Job. I only would suggest pitch battles with the turks in the early era and never against the Mongols and Timurids. I would fight them on bridges or in my...
Pixelated Apollo did a lot of research and picked the top ten factions based on units. He goes into detail in a youtube video. Legend Total War is another great player and he shows that if played...
I tried every mod I could find for Vanilla. Most of the mod links are broken and the only two mods I could actually get to download was Ultimate AI which did not work and the Darthmod which crashed...
