Indeed, and it's a lot of fun. This is a game I've been dreaming for. Brings back this one more turn compulsion that I didn't feel with the last generations of TW games.
After watching that scene when Liu Bei throw his baby on the floor I came to think that some of the moments I find hilarious in this show might not be intentionally so...
Or is it ?
Damn, I...
The modding sections remained quite active (especially M2TW's). STeam workshop probably played an even role in depopulating the area.
And the TWC mods trapped in the crossfire.
I skipped the intro from episode 2 already. This show is very enjoyable but the music isn't its best part. Hearing this baritone singer in the intro makes me feel like I'm sitting in the passenger...
Yes, apparently I didn't pay attention when zooming out. The other thing I didn't get is that in the diplomacy screen I just had to click a second time on a faction so that the "masks" of each...
Is it me, or the only way to check which province a character administrates is to check in every cities garrison ?
Another unpractical thing is when you clicked on a faction in the diplomacy...
Anybody reached the endgame yet ? Is it fun and decisive as FOTS's endgame for instance ? I find the 3 kingdoms fighting each other scenario intriguing, but can't it lead to an endless stale ?
The thing with this reform tree is : it is indeed a tree.
Peach or cherry tree, I'm not sure yet, but I'm confident I will find it easier to read after a couple of campaigns.
I really...
In a way, isn't it a good sign that the UI is cluttered ? Maybe it means that the campaign management is deep. I like how the different systems are interacting one with the other, creating...
I can totally relate to this.
It's the lack of personification in the dynasties and characters that made R2TW feel so bland to me. Even after most of its most blatant issues were addressed. The...
THanks for the tip, it's a nice show. Frankly, I didn't expect that when I started watching it. And there are some hilarious scenes too. But 95 episodes...
I agree. I remember how frustrating it could be sometimes in S2TW to see great Daimyos die in fisrt battle, because of auto resolve battles or to see them running to be impaled on your ashigaru first...
That's great news. And I started a campaign and I'm amazed by what you guys made out of this game ! CA might have corrected the original mess, but DEI is making the whole thing meaningful and fun....
Hi I'm coming back to R2 after 3 years (I guess). I've installed DEI right from the bat. Which campaign would you guys advise me to play : I already played the original main campaign (both vanilla...
Great news Large Jack. Personally, I didn't play since the allegiance update. But two pages of praise only is so unfair, that even if I really don't feel like writing a long post, I feel like I need...
I remember this made it impossible in vanilla game for large factions surrounded by aggressive minor factions to survive. Carthage, espeially would be wiped early on, Rome also, the Ptolemies, etc......
Anyone played this :

It looks promising with its simple but deep gameplay.
Personally I find it impossible to compare old TW titles with the new. Because when I srted playing those games everything wsa new and exciting and with time you start to see the stitches under. I...
Maybe this is not exactly what the OP meant. I also was pleasantly surprised by the bigger garnisons (I don't have the DLC, just watched a few lets' play). What I saw on the other side is that the AI...
I concur : you should give it a try. Considering the sheer amount of unfair critics this title received, this would certainly brighten his day.
Great, this is the first mod I will install with ToB.
Damn, playing as Gwynedd, at the moment I was finally crushing Alfred of Wessex (and kill him in battle) his son made a political marriage with the Irish Vikings. So now my borders are completely...
Morpeth, the game being too hard shouldn't discourage you. You will improve, slowly, and and get the best of it. It always is.
What is it exactly you have difficulties with ?
What you could do...
Good ideas ! I like the FOOD UNCHANGED BY TAXES
Was wondering actually, what made CA link those tow. Was food tax a thing at the time ?
Wow, what's going on in the outside world ?
So Finally, CA made the right choices with the campaign systems (recruitment, family tree, minor settlements, proper supply system, no agents, no...
I'm quite hyped by the coming of a new historical title. At least ! I mean, I enjoyed TWH, but it still felt like crossing a desert. Especially in terms of campaign map strategic and narrative value,...
I think I agree with Daruwind here. I guess this unique blend of turn based campaign and RT battles is actually what made the success of the TW formula.
I also believe that what makes strategic...
please delete
Damn, you seem to be very well documented on the matter of field army's logistics !
Great that you mention Byg's Grim Reality for SS6 ; it 's among my three favorite TW mods ever ! The way this...
No, Warhammer doesn't have to be historical, but come on, it's still a wargame and takes place in a world held by gravitational rules, I also thought siege engines and cannons would slower your...
I have to check that, it would be very good news indeed. The turning point where raiding and plundering became abstract (with the side effect of making siege battles much more frequent than field...
The campaign map.
I feel like we get back to M2TW Kingdom's level of depth on the campaign map. The poltical system is a step in the right direction. Too bad CA didn't feel the need to perfect...
Impressive ! Beautiful ! I loved everything I saw. The huge battle right from start reminded me of Roma Surrectum by the way. And the economy system looks great too. Nobody can see that and not be...
How did Empire Divided sell ? ANy numbers ?
Best turn based Wargame I ever played. If it had a persistent campaign world à la Total War, I wouldn't play anything else.
Did CA improved R2TW battle and campaign AI for the expansion ? This concerns me more than unit models and cards (which I find nice actually).
I also believe that family trees are the best way to mimic power plays in monarchic/clientelist systems. (it also create emergent narrative gameplay). I mean , most of those were dynasties ! R2's...
A good way to create mid/end game difficulty would be to have spawning barbarian armies like in Total Warhammer 2. They would teleport directly in your backyard in the same way chaos armies does in...
I did watch a bit further and I must say you really are on the right path. This is great entertainment already and a perfect way get a glimpse at the mod's evolution. Thanks.
It really motivates...
Great, I'll watch further then !! Just watched this 50 minutes long battle and there were none. Bad pick I suppose :(
