I don't get why he went on some tirade about wielding your spear with two hands. Obviously wielding it with 2 hands rather than one allows you more control over your spear and allows you to apply...

Just to clarify, the 3K DLC won't be about Vietnam but will rather be about the Nanman. The Nanman are a group of "Barbarians"(for what that word is worth) living around Yunnan in modern day China.

The Godforged armor and that General armor is beautiful. I assume that the Lambda symbol on the armor means it's Spartan General armor? Obviously not historically accurate(I think the Lambda was only...

Yes I was quite intrigued by that statement. Really the map wouldn't -have- to include all of Turkey/Anatolia to cover the period As shown on the map earlier in the thread most of Troys allies who...

I don't understand why people call 3K a fantasy game so much. Especially on this board. Yes, there are heroes, but you can turn them off and the core is all and all pretty well developed and accurate...

Interesting. Must mean that they are planning to unveil their next DLC relatively soon! I think it will probably be coming around mid november, they still have to give time for the Warhammer dlc to...

I would gladly take longer waits for higher quality DLC than the lightining fast pace of WH1 and R2. WH2 has had some of the best DLC for a TW game while most past TW games only had 1 or 2 really...

Just search up "Lemnos Desert". The island of Lemnos does in fact contain a desert, one of only two deserts in Europe apparently. Also I see no reason why Lemnos would not be on the map for this game.

Looks pretty interesting. I like the decision to use some actual bronze age designs for the less mythical units.

To quote Grace when someone said "basically Age of Mythology TW" she responded with this:



I expect in spite of the PCgamer article hinting at it it may be more real than not. Still obviously...

I highly doubt that the game will be about the Bronze Age collapse. It's just too big for a Saga game, I'd have loved to see a Total War:Bronze Age with the Battle of Kadesh and the Hittite-Egyptian...

I agree with Daruwind. I see no reason to believe this will be on the Rome 2 version of the engine(including Attila and ToB). It will likely be based on 3K both for its engine and for a few of its...

A Bronze age game would be more interesting but it could very easily just be an entirely Troy focussed game with a focus on the heroes and characters mentioned, and a map focused on Greece and...

Future chapter packs seem to be future start dates for 3K rather than new periods, it seems 8P was supposed to be an exception not a rule.

Honestly the best part about this whole thing is that at last all the various TW communities are united in their distaste for this mode. Oh well, at least it's free. Hopefully they don't actually...

Probably not. CA has outright said that future DLC's will revist the 3K era. I expect that 8 Princes was released as a sort of "Palate Cleanser" for 3K so when the next 3K chapter pack drops people...

Can't say I relate at all. It's unfortunate that you feel that way and have had a bad experience but I have been loving the game.

Calling the Koreans a tribe is a bit much don't you think? They were an advanced culture by this point.



1. To say that the Non-Han groups besides the southern tribes did not have a big role is...

Personally I think it's probable that they originally wanted to make religion a thing but just decided against it at some point in development and those references are just what is left of that phase...

I really don't think there should be a start for Guandu itself. I just feel it would be a bit of a pointless start, frankly most games as Cao Cao you will probably be running in to Yuan Shao anyway,...

This is just my personal experience, and I was just a child when Rome 1 and Medieval 2 and the games before came out so I can't speak for those launches, but to my memory at least this is without a...

I feel like this bit was a bit necessary, this is very much just a hotfix.

I generally agree. I don't think the game has to be restricted to just the 3K era but it shouldn't go very far from it. The absolute farthest forward I'd be willing to accept would be the beginning...

Yeah Japan will almost certainly not feature. They just aren't distinctive at all in this era. I don't think we will go to the west much farther either. Korea seems likely, both for historical...

Played since Medieval 2. Got it and I love it, the smoothest TW release by far and one the best releases in recent years honestly.

My worry with modding is that despite not being Warhammer and thus not having to follow the IP rules of Warhammer, they still won't allow importing new models. Maybe it's a baseless fear but...

Yeah, you do get a week grace period to determine whether you want the game or not which is nice. Don't get me wrong Pre Order DLC are not a good policy, but it is a reality, and at the very least...

I wouldn't say there is any need for a delay. So far it looks pretty good, it has shaped up quite nicely. I'm glad they did not release it when they originally planned, I feel like these last 2...

I'm satisfied with 240 infantry personally, that seems more than big enough but I do feel cavalry should have 80 models instead, rather than 60(and 60 rather than 40 on Ultra) but at a slight cost to...

I suppose, but unlike the Old Forest Road(Road of the Dwarves) it's not actually named so I suppose it can be assumed that before the Numenoreans built the road it was just a well known trail to get...

They already confirmed that they are indeed going to the Second Age, it seems the new series will revolve around the conflicts between Sauron and the Elves and Numenoreans. Similar to DCI indeed!
...

I'll disagree with you there. People disliked Warhammer's campaign dlc's because frankly they were just really bad and felt like an excuse to charge us 18$, and were basically just smaller versions...

What the hell! Look at this! Romance Mode is just Records Mode with generals as single entities, duels, and slightly tweaked balancing! For shame CA, for shame. Arch and Darren were right, I'm going...

I don't know why you guys are still arguing about this, I am telling you as long as they made the blood content a separate download that you had to access separately it would be fine. The reality is...

Traction Trebuchets, not Counterweight Trebuchets.

TBH the first delay from fall to march never really felt like a delay, at least to me. We had literally seen nothing of the game for like 6 months and there wasn't even an announcement about it, or...

I thought the 3rd stream looked very good, gameplay looked fun. I'd say 10 minutes is acceptable for an early game full stack battle, I know some people would prefer them to last 3 hours but for most...

Here's the thing though, you are trying to answer this logically. Logically, I get that to you it makes sense that they have to charge money for blood and can't just make it free. It made sense to me...

Just wanted to say, IIRC pre-release when people were asking CA why Gallowglass were in game when they weren't mentioned until the 12th century, their answer was basically that they just used...

I'm assuming that much like vanilla ToB this mod is going for unit designs from all of "Viking Age" Britain, from the game's start to 1066. By 1066 AFAIK the Saxons were using Kite Shields. I was...
