See, I told you.
Use cheap hoplites as javelin meat. Then use "real" hoplite units to grind all other units into dust.
But be weary, some celtic and germanic units have stupid long shieldwall...

See, I told you.

Yep, but they have some of the best sword units IMHO.
But there are some total BS moments and you just gotta cheese.
I played with Syracuse once. It is hard. Maybe one of the harderest starting factions. You need to focus on keeping the island and getting income. And using hoplite units to cheese rome units( in...
Same, never noticed it doing anything.
Thanks for the animation explanation, that is something i did not know. I thought it calculates MA and MD(Melee Defence) in a different way, like if a unit has 11 att and another one has 15 defence,...
Ok, will do. But honestly, I just wreck everything with them. I dont think MA is the most important in all honestly. For instance. If MA of 10 axe has 13 pen value, and sword unit with 2 pen value...
I mean, axe units are preety much OP overall so yeah they would be better.
Name me one unit that would be better as a sword unit than a axe unit. You get -6 Max possible dmg for +6 or 7 AP damage...
Not really, they are faster, will do better at chasing missle units, being more defensive means they will hold out longer. They have their uses, you just need to know where and when to allocate them....
It's main purpose IMO is their non existent movement speed penatly. They are great flankers, okayish speed, with that penatly make them great at going thorugh hard terrain and outmanouvering heavier...
Rhodian marines are kind of average at best.
Their armor is 25 but they look more armoured than 30 stat marines, maybe upgrade them a bit. Their 28/2 damage model should probably be replaced with...
AI gets infinite food, bonus to Public Order and revolt will not kill their garrison
Ok buddy, my list of mods is : DEI pt1, DEI pt2, Alternative economy by oh, you. ,RTW 1 music. So which of these change units???
Also yes they do, please turn on the game and try it. This is a...
Sorry KAM but no. Their late game hoplites get beaten by almost all other barbarian shield wall or phalanx. Are we not gonna talk anout getics having access to 13/12 Att/Def phanax unit with 4 run...
Oh, thanks for the info. Shame really, that would open up so much possibilities. :(
Right now we have a useless "gets less tired in snow/desert" statuses. Since I saw you can artificially add or retract attack or defense points, why not add +x/y amount of Att or Def point to a unit...
Im just gonna say that if anyone thinks Rome 2 AI is even close to good than you lose all credit.
It's so bad, they charge with Cav into phalanx, pike or spear formations when they are in town...
Dont Logades have 3 extra armor, I dont know how it's calculated when in direct PHLX vs PHLX formation. Maybe that made a difference.
Also, do Spartans have hp bonus or not? And that is what makes...
Well those are all "spartan" units , did you try it with other merc hoplites.
Also, I'm with you that theres some BS going on, theres no way they have extra HP, never seen that benefit anywhere.
Wrong but ok, do you set camp. to hard diff (battle normal)?
Also, Athens spams 7/15 35 armor hoplites, has walled port and can hire mercs en mass, while you're stuck with maybe one and a half...
As I was saying, they ARE weak, if you had infinite amount of classes like AI then they would be meh at best. They are nowhere near as good as other Hellenic states(starting position and economicly...
How about adding custom thorax spear units for them, also, their thorax swords cost noble class and, all other hellenes sword units cost 2nd class(except pergamon elite and pontos elite), but they...
You can check hp value of units on transports AFAIK
No, you can check it when they are on transports.
Yep, I played with them only once since I tried DeI. No point in them whatsoever. Their phalanx units get same stats as other Hellenes, get outdone by Illyrian hoplites and buffed daican and celtic...
So there's something that really needs to be adressed. Naval combat units. So what I mean by that is to standardize naval unit HP points.
It makes no sense why some have 70 or 60(ranged) while...
Nice. I got a spear champion on my Galatian general. But it really sucks that you gotta balance the loss/kill ratio instead of just getting kills with your general.
That wasnt the problem, I had infinite "training time" . Check the image. It started training again after 5-6 turns.
So this is a first, ever. In some regions I get the message "no recruiting points available". Anyone have some form of explaination, it seems to happen at conquered territories. ...
I won't even anwser that logic
Ok, thanks:thumbsup2
Wanted to know if there is a RTW1 OST port to DeI, I really miss the old one. And if it will bug up the DeI mod if I install it.
But don't higher casualties cause him to drop to "punching bag" or is it the combo of High Kills and Casualties that sets it off for higher tier?
So, I've noticed this a long time ago. Brawler and Strateg traits seem to be bugged or not working as intended. I get brawler on my generals that suffered high casualties and another one who has a...
This is something I was wondering for a long time. Will we ever see some new cities, or city ports in DeI? I know the anwser is probably no but still, I wanted to ask?
Noted, I used to play only on Hard until now and it got too easy, so I thought I'd try to go higher difficulty. Makes sense now. Will do , thanks:thumbsup2
I don't think it's a bad idea to add tier 1 barracks in itself, but it is really hard , because of that decision, to start most barbarian or most one town Factions. Thing is , when you play as...
Now hear me out, while I understand the reason why aformentioned building only provide armor/attack boost, would it be possible to also add Weapon Damage +%, and Shieldblock +%. As they are...
As far as I know their effects are still valid even while in "politics" mode (ie. not on Campaing Map).
