Hmmm... I turned away from the TW franchise when Rome II came out and have been watching the stagnant quality ever since. Watching this video, I understand that they now intend to milk the Chinese...
Interesting that the "design approach" named "cutting features" comes up again after all these years. Yeah, I remember it transpired around the release of Rome II that CA had had the brilliant idea...
Hi folks, old time TWC user coming back from cryosleep for a comment here. I used to play Medieval II with the Kingdoms expansion and the Stainless Steel mod a lot. At the time, I frequented TWC...
The Total War of my dreams would be Medieval III. In my dreams, SEGA/CA would ditch all the crap they designed since MII and continue where they left off. MIII would be similar to MII in all aspects...
We are all just lonesone travellers here, old friend. I remember well, you were the first to hand out rep to me when I started this AAR, and you were irritated about my strange chapter 4a. How time...
It's been a long time I played this, but it was 6.4 with BGR IV, so supposed to be quite hard, and I had neither problems with endless enemy stacks nor getting alliances. Here is some tips from what...
Used to play the hell out of MII, first vanilla, then with Stainless Steel mod. Had high expectations for Rome II, but luckily didn't preorder. Seeing the reactions, I never bought it and lost...
This has been dormant for a long time... waiting... dreaming... dreaming of another life in another world, of a man named Strengelicher and his foolish toils. A story in its own right. Coming back...
Nice work, +rep. Are you using any additional difficulty settings (like longer assimilation, BGR etc.)?
Is this actor a muslim?
It is even worse than many here think. Long-time TWC members sometimes become inactive or even disappear forever, and it is rumoured that this could be due to marriages taking place in their real...
Vassals who misbehave must be punished. They shall face nothing but ignominious death at the hands of the mighty Marius Marich!
Advanced street fighting, hmmm... will we get to see people doing armbars and dropkicks?
You don't have to actually destroy your keyboard. Just rip out the key which opens the console. I remember there was a discussion with the same topic here on the forums quite a while ago, and it was...
There are a number of benefits, some of which can be considered exploits:
1. As has been said already, forts prevent armies from going rebel, so you can use them to shelter armies which are in...
Do not be foolish, use BGR IV.
Counting would be the only way I know of.
Maybe you should run this through Google translator into Korean.
AFAIK knights do not suffer any penalties if fighting in a city type settlement. However, they may receive bonuses from defending a wall. Also keep in mind that the general's command value influences...
Presumably, one of your generals neglected orders from your faction leader. Check your leader's traits. Maybe you will find something along the lines of "leader defied". If that is the case, you have...
Maybe you should ask how to do it in the modding subforums.
If you conquer the settlement while crusading and then leave crusading units without a general in the settlement, they stop crusading on the next turn and therefore do not suffer from desertion. I...
In my view the game would not gain much by further subdivisions of religions. But if you feel it would, go ahead and mod it.
Skantarios played version 6.1, maybe that version had a 1450 campaign.
In vanilla, you can just abandon a crusade, remove the unit and then rejoin, I think. Otherwise, you can take a settlement and move on with your general. Any units left behind as garrison will stop...
OP is right... violent is a strange trait.
How could I not click on a thread with the word "bizarre" in the title?
That makes sense for Venice, as the adjacent regions generate financial benefits from internal trade. Additionally, Rhodes and Crete are out of the way, resulting in a decreased risk of conflict with...
Nothing beats the good old longbow/armour discussion... except the good old discussion whether cavalry charges were for real or not... :)
Not a bug, might be you are going insane. I had a similar problem once, but now I always carry a foldable meter with me. Whenever someone's legs seem too short, I get out the meter and measure them....
There are several ways to deal with your problem.
1. You can lure them to sally out. To do this, the AI must regard your besieging army as inferior to the garrison. Obviously, this will probably...
Thank God I do not have Steam, and after reading this thread, I am sure I will never get it. Sorry to say I am kind of old school when it comes to computers and games. I fail to understand how people...
Excellent start, I like it. Owing to the proximity to the Crusader States, of course I have a special interest to see how it goes. And I find the history of the Hospitallers really interesting, too....
Only just found this. Nice, shall be following. +rep
So has this game gone from open alpha to open beta in the meantime? Can't wait till it's finished... :)
Maybe the game is not for you. Play something easier. After all, games are there for us to enjoy, not to get stressed out. ;)
Congrats to the winners! :thumbsup2
Thanks to everybody for the feedback. I guess I will open a new account with another provider then. Although I fear that the problem may reoccur with that provider again at a later stage.
Confirmed. The local mercenary pool must have refilled, which may sometimes takes a while (especially if the unit(s) is heavily depleted). The pool may be emptied again by AI factions recruiting new...
