Corner camp is the most used cheese tactics in Total War from the beggining of the franchise, make the game very boring I must say and prevent from learning anything resemble to tactics. The battles...
As "spear and shield" warriors their are not obsolete at all (for, at least, a thousand years and more "spear wall" was a simple, sound tactic), as a socio-economic organization (wealth based...
Hello. First congrats for a great submod.
Can I disable the "war" version of the ships? This make the "normal" versions pointless because cost almost the same but are much more powerful (too...
I think you're right Quintus, I 'don't believe in neutrality concerning some modern debates and maybe my poinst of view are to strong for this particular discussion. It's because academics are not...
I'm amazed how race and genetics beggan to be so important in History studies in the XXI century, like in the second half of XIX and the first half of XX centuries. We know how it ends, if there is a...
athanaric and Quintus, your points are fair enough for me, I understand the logic behind them but I don't agree in some issues.
In the case of the ancient jews being a semitic people then they...
Afrocentric propaganda? C'mon man, are you serious?
Joann Fletcher is very questioned by the egiptology experts for rush conclusions and very shady practices in intepreting the source material, so...
People tend to mix, you know, no man or woman reject love and sex naturally because the color of their skin. Egypt was conquered by Makedonia three centuries before the arrival of the romans, and...
Maybe we can tone down our machism. Every time women appears in "unhistorical fashion" in a game some comments are dumb and juvenile, much more "critic" than other unhistorical "manly" features,...
Roma construct a complex mix of cities and colonies with roman, latín, allied or other rights. Until much later, roman citizenship was scarcely given. This was the strategy of "divide et impera"...
Makedonian cavalry bodyguard 200 men instead 100 like other succesors states. It's intentional?
This is crazy stuff, really crazy rightwing stuff (yes, I'm a man who think peace, equal rights, ecology, welfare for the people are important topics in politic, so probably I'm a violent leftist...
Logic and lore. Lore: In WH world some cities thousand years old are of fundamental importance for the past and future events and some outlying villages don't matter at all, so these villages...
Yes, I second all this. Keep working, take your time, for playing unfinished games popping yearly you have the vanilla Total War games (sometimes good, sometimes a mess). If the 1.6 is finished in...
Spear/sword and shield won`t become obsolete until the gunpowder spread. Pre-gunpowder military machines (of the iron age) are comparable like modern military machines with similar weapons. Tactics,...
To much philosophers and merchants, to few hardy peasants and veteran soldiers. A few centuries later Italy suffer the same fate, demilitarized and fill with slaves from the early imperial succes...
Some recruit have an anual cicle (4 turns, one turn you can recruit and then you have to wait three turns).
mmmm... comparing USA with ancient republics is unprofesional in the academic history. The characteristics of the three ancient cultures mentioned are different and the historical process of forming...
Use merchants to balance your economy and take Mariemburg (or a mining heavy karak if you are near) to become rich, but merchant are the key. Keep in mind this: you need a higher level of market in...
For the kind of force needed to cut the bronze and the wood of the scutum the dacian dude must have a great strength and done a large swing maybe with a run for more inertia. In one on one this trick...
Well, thanks to you for reinforce my point. I'm a "foreign"? Do you realize the number of "foreign people" in this forum and in the world? A lot, I assure you. And you will be surprise how much of...
Cairn Wrath and Ghosts Hosts ignore armor defenses (and I think the other elites too), are affected by necromancy and have moral lock. I don't play much with vampire lords but I think the special...
ˇThank you modders for all your awesome work!
I, a humble player of TW games but a complete useless in technical affairs (I'm a history teacher), want to thank you.
The mod is fine, you have...
For you... yes. That's the point in the post, seek some advice to your problem of mass stack boring attack. After play this mod for years (no always, not all the time) I found sane have a mix of TW...
Helps not play all battles in one day. Maybe you can play other mods or games and come back when you want kill some big armies. In the end is similar to we have done in all this years with dozens of...
A couple of turns after the "faithful squire" event a new event happens. An army of beastmen appear in the small forest SW of Altdorf and NW of Auerswald trying to escape. You have a a few turns for...
Ok, I spoil this...
The reward is a badass bretonian knight
A thousand years of enlightment without the conservative medievalism of humans, the aristocratic tyranny of elves and the oppresive autocracy of dwarves. Racism and misogyny will end and the lower...
Roma was an Oligarchic Republic not a Democracy. Cesar and Augustus overthrew the Republic with the legions in one hand and the Grachus brothers politic program in the other (distribution of the...
Not a bug, only a minor mistake (I think). In Carthage campaign Hannibal change his elephant general unit for cavalry but the numbers remain the same, 36 horses (max units), when the other generals...
Is the market tree. You need to build level 3 (I think, maybe level 4) of market instead level 1 like almost all other mods (and vanilla) before you build almost any other building. Any building you...
If you're playing Reikland then yes, and an important reward await if you finish the quest.
Roma invicta.
I don't thing Patrol Stance is OP (like a "game breaking advantage" OP). Besides, an army patroling a province was a powerful control measure in antiquity with his propensity to genocidal violence.
The Ghosts of Cannae: Hannibal and the Darkest Hour of the Roman Republic by Robert L. O'ConnellExcelent book about the Hannibal invasion of Italy with the most famous battle in the center but also...
Today I finish "The Ghosts of Cannae" by Robert L. O'Connell, excelent book about the invasion of Italy by Hannibal. The narrative about the battle of Cannae is terrifying, never can be all the...
Well. Alexander The Great was injured many times in his campaign and I'm sure many man are more resilient to damage. Besides, a stone maybe can kill you if the impact is in the head (if not ricochet...
In Carthage campaign Hannibal bodyguards change from elphant to cavalry but the numbers not change. So, I have 1/3 of the regular bodyguard cavalry in the most famous general (I don't remember but I...
