Hi everyone,
Playing my first campaign of third age in years as Gondor. Around turn 73 there was an event in which Aragorn offered to become the Captain of Gondor's forces. The game game...
I've managed to get the alt + drag (with locked formations) method to work, although it is rather intricate to perform when all I want is the army to move in formation.
I tend to assign multiple groups in my army, usually the ranged units, the center line troops, the flanking shock troops, the cavalry, and heroes. Whenever I select all my groups and move them, they...
I can't wait. I feel that with Attila they have finally hit their stride using the warscape engine. Always wanted to play as the man who saved Europe from the hordes.
It feels like they may as well just make roman cohorts a regular unit in the North African factions. Every few turns 2 large stacks with 6-10 of these guys shows up. I am sure that deserters were...
I play hard campaign, medium battle. I refuse to change battle difficulty because I'm assuming they change difficulty in this game the way they always have - by adding stat bonuses. As the previous...
Hey all. I am curious to know that mods you guys have tried and which ones improved your experience overall. I have had "no forced march" mod reccommended to me and I plan to install it, but I am...
I have 3 armies chasing these SOBs around and they always manage to squeak by. I basically have to wait to fight them when they want to. Am I historically ignorant? Should a huge mob consisting of...
Hi all - I finally killed Attila in battle and I have mixed feelings about the game now.
I have to say that overall I really am not impressed with how the huns are programmed. If I'm not...
The bonus objective in which you must maintain at least 75% latin christianity in your capital keeps bugging. The objective is shown, but Liguria disappears from the list, so I get an empty...
I wish someone would make a classical era mod for Attila. I love Attila, but when I returned to Rome II (even with this Mods dramatic improvements) it was just missing something, and it wasn't the...
I knew something was up! I was doing amazingly as the WRE, annihilating hunnic armies and stopping rebellion, then suddenly I was inexplicably at -500 food. This must be why. I guess I will stick...
Hey all, I am curious to know what you guys think of the goat farming chain of farm buildings. Wheat offers maximum food minimal income, while livestock are maximum income minimal food. Goats seem...
My typical schematic for a city is a church (the chain with a public order bonus, not religious osmosis), sanitation (the chain with public order bonus, not growth), and an income. In coastal areas...
I'm glad he mentioned the units clumping up. If they have terrible collision and mosh-pit fight it will rion the visual appeal of the game, no matter how incredible their modelling and animations...
I know that the inevitable decline towards streamlining is happening, so all I hope is that they fix whatever changed between warscape and the ealier engines so that fights dont like mosh pits - I...
For the record - I dont think M2TW was perfect. What I said was that the steady progression of improvement starting from Shogun 1 to Medieval 2 didn't continue into the warscape series.
The new...
I hope he learned his lesson from R2TW and doesn't fall for BS fake alpha footage. Sometimes I find the anger routine a bit over the top, but I actually tend to agree with the points he makes with...
It will involve adding a few minor reskins and switching a few lines of text to say playable instead of unplayable. It will cost ~$100 if you want all of them.
Modding? Who needs modding? This is the age of DLC. Now you can pay money for parts of the game that should have been there in the first place.
No there will be no supported modding.
The Greenskins inhabit the badlands, south of the Border Princes all the way to the east of the Empire. The Vampire Counts would be located in the province of Sylvania in the Empire.
Check this...
Absolutely I would love to see it return. I loved playing M2TW and having my well-equipped militia in chain facing down the impoverished hordes of my enemies (who tended not to go for fast armour...
I did enjoy Shogun 2, but I think that the small scale of the game (limited to the factions in the Japanese archipelago) helped that. If the game had been on a much larger scale and had so many...
This is the McGaming era, everything is streamlined and in place of robust modding tools we have DLC - of course there will be no modding support. CA sold its soul for the money of casual gamers,...
I would go from expecting to be disappointed to being excited if I knew that the TW3/warscape engine was being scrapped. Even with all the tinkering they made after the release of Rome II they still...

You have 40K and WHFB confused. If this had been the early 90's then...
Have a hybrid - make the majority of basic buildings universal and then have regional differences in what specialty buildings are available based on culture and resources (Similar to ETW in a way)....
In the newer editions of WHFB they have whitewashed the vampires to the point where they are all classic Von Carsteins. The built-in distinction between bloodlines has been replaced by a bunch of...
Lizardmen are the main connection between 40K and WHFB so I think they are the neatest.
Sadly they will use the warscape engine. An improved Medieval/Rome1 engine would be more suitable - terrible unit collision and the horrible 1 on 1 only combat dynamics are just awful.
Why? Multiple hitpoints were only for bodyguards and elephants in the old Total War games. Bodyguards could do without it, but how would you implement elephants without multiple HP? Now imagine a...
I would say that the indispensible factions are the humans (Empire/Kislev/Bretonnia/Tilea/Estalia/Araby/Ind maybe Cathay and Nippon), the High Elves and Wood Elves, Orcs and Goblins, Dwarves, Vampire...
If this had been announced shortly after Medieval 2 Kingdoms was released I would be completely stoked - I played the series right from Shogun 1 through to Kingdoms and loved it. The games weren't...
11 - never say the words "Lorica Segmentata"
Call me mainstream, but I am going Romani, I know my ancestors were celts, but screw them, I want to play Rome.
Lets see who the favourites are.
I had never thought of tampering that directly with AI interactions, I'm amazed at you minimap though, I'll have to find their console name and just juice them up with money, how much do you give...
All you have to do is say "lorica segmentata" and then just grab a chair, some poprcorn, and watch the world burn. The thought crossed my mind the other day that other "facts" that we have may be...
I hope so, although if they could make it a bit more sophisticated that would be nice.
For me it would have to be the local auxilaries that you get from capturing foreign land. The Galatian local troops have a broad, robust roster.
Hi everyone, I'm back after a long break, lab work and writing a Masters thesis can really drain the life out of you. I went back to one of my old EB games as the Greeks and after about 2 rounds...
