Hello
I was wondering if the traits of my spouse and the effects of any ancilllary they might carry, apply towards the bonuses a province is receiving from my character, so for instance if my...
Hello, Iīve spend an ungodly amount of time playing for this victory but it isnt triggering, lets go through the checklist:
1) control 45 settlements - 76 under control - check
2) control 6...
There is mention on the download/install instruction page of a W10 launch command you need to copy/paste into the steam "Set Launch Options", once you do that, donīt use the APETI launcher, just...
If it helps, I usually get rid of tactless traits and progress up that line by starting all conversations with a welcome gift of 100 and a parting gift of 100. Being generous in all offers helps too.
I would love to see the implementation of the AI group control for player use in battles, specifically designed for grouping skirmishers, both foot and mounted, and letting them do their thing under...
thanks, my sanity is safeguarded.... for now
I hadnīt played Romans since forever but decided to try it out recently and realized that everytime I click on a unit, which is very frequently, you get the usual verbal acknowledgement which for...
Sorry I canīt but the good news is that I did some research on memory and that solved the issue, I have had no CTDs at all for 120 turns, I guess that was the problem!
Thanks Quintus
Every single turn I get the advisor popping up telling me I have colonists ready to dispatch. Streuinta my capital is a confederacy and presents no options to create a colony there, the next town...
Just had a recurring crash after my 1st battle with Boii 2.35358127
For scripting, do pirate raiders that land in mini stacks and marauding fleets blocking ports for a turn or engaging weak troop transports in transit. Would be cool and perhaps not entirely...
I hold the Germanic Veteran Spearmen in very high regard, they are just so tough in battle, as a Getic player, I find them impressive
Doesnīt seem surprising that it was widely adopted as the solution is elegant enough to protect a vital area and retain the high level of mobility required by the hips.
I seem to remember there is a penalty associated to loyalty if your FL is not present in the capital and also seem to remember that if he is, any FM in the city with him gradually accrues...
You could try assassins and I guess diplomats on the bribe, never tried it myself as I never have problems getting enemy spies caught or expelled, maybe you were just unlucky. Perhaps you have a 007...
Just realized my comments are geared towards fighting nomadic stacks full of HA and HLancers, as I guess thats far more problematic than dealing with a couple of HA in a mixed army? I play Getai a...
Instead of out shooting them, you could also go hand to hand versus those HA but you need something fast enough to catch them. Since they are so weak in melee, you should get some medium cav as they...
If anything, more expensive and higher cost would be more fun, but its ok as it is, though I would say that 2.3 features a lot of cavalry in AI stacks, which may be offset by upping their cost a...
You Sir, are a man after mine own heart. I cannot abide untidy armies either and I also like using a more standardized stack. My variety comes from raising local unit stacks, that way I end up using...
LOL
Its interesting that we approach the issue of taxation from diametrically opposite standpoints, as I never consider trying to extract as much money from my citizens as I possible can i.e. having as...
1) my armies are regionally oriented because I do retrain units and I think it should be a local thing (its also less of a micromanaging nightmare). And I do have a royal retinue to defend my core...
Damn, armored elephants, talk about ancient tank warfare. they must have been the scariest thing to face in battle. Planet wide.
It would be an interesting variation! The issues about not being able to use terrain for defence would still stand though and you would see armies parked in cities always to ensure a defence against...
I like your idea more than my suggestion but I donīt know if they can make terrain harder to traverse, it would be awesome though!
I donīt think real time would do it for me, or if it is even...
Yes I understand this small change would have huge consequences for the game. I just think its important to put the idea out there as Iīm sure many have encountered the same problem but perhaps its...
Hello all, as the title says, I have recently been thinking about the merits of slowing down army movement on the campaign map. And I mean pretty drastically.
Here goes the reasoning:
At...
Peltenai are an all time fave but I have a sweet spot for the Getikoi Stratiotai
When it comes to mercs though, those Cretan Peltasts are rock hard (except they canīt skirmish in 2.3, which is...
Lol, Iīm always tempted to swarm falxmen but my army just tends to gravitate towards Stratiokai as my line unit as they are so solid! Peltenai/epilektoi are my shock troops because.....they survive...
The mystery unravels! Ok, Iīll have all my boys running around outside until they become men, proven Tarabostes is just mandatory, so all will learn fieldwork. Then everyone goes back to town to do...
Ok just to be double sure: the description says they start military training at age 20, does this mean that we can keep them in cities getting some schooling until they are around 19, which would be...
Also, If i place a bunch of kids in a stack under a legendary Tarabostes, does this boost the probability of them aquiring more and better traits for warfare or is it the same?
Glad I found this thread then, I was stuck in the traditional model doh! I will take a different approach with the kids from now on. Just to be sure though, should ALL kids be out playing around...
I think Iīm doing something wrong, and by the looks of it, Iīm leaving every kid in the capital hoping the local school will make something of them all. From what I understand, I have to be more...
That AuxGen trait sounds fantastic, Iīll be adding an additional FM to my stacks from now on, but I would ask if there is a limitation to the number of FMs that benefit from this?
Also, Getai...
Awesome!! Recommended difficulty still H/H ? Playing Getai right away!!!!
Its good more ammo was given to "proper" skirmishers, I havent played since 2.2g I think! And yes I can imagine the timing is a tricky thing to get right, I guess over time itīll be narrowed down to...
I agree with Quintus that frontal attacks by javelineers should be less effective, especially when using light missiles, but it should be very dependant on the shield quality facing them. Ammo is too...
