    Re: Attila Computer & Hardware Recommendations

    Yeah, actually disassembling the case is where I draw the line. Nevertheless, it would probably help to get a spray duster to at least clean up the outside openings. I used to be in the habit of...

    Re: Attila Computer & Hardware Recommendations

    I do not. Would it be helpful in addition to what you advised before or as an alternative?

    Edit: Other than that, thanks a lot for the thorough advice, will examine my options in terms of time and...

    Re: Attila Computer & Hardware Recommendations

    Thanks for the quick response. I did not know how to, but I just checked your thread to learn and will give it a try.

    Intel Core i7-6700HQ CPU @2.60 GHz 2.59 GHz
    RAM 8.00 GB (7.78 usable)...

    Re: Attila Computer & Hardware Recommendations

    Is there any way I can shorten the length of the AI's turns? Recently bought the game and have been playing a campaign as the Sassanids, only to find the wait for the AI to finish its turn increasing...
  5. Re: Skyrim: end of dungeon bosses - any advice?

    Bear in mind that though Skyrim plays a lot like an action game, it is ultimately an RPG, which means that your character's build will ultimately be more important than your own capacity for...
  6. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Villars was not nearly as impressive as Wallenstein was, his is definetely a case of appearances mostly corresponding to reality, so to speak. However, he should not be considered as vastly inferior...
  7. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Heh, no problem, stuff like that happens.

    Another little known but impressive Roman was Claudius Gothicus. While Aurelian's feats are better known, it was Claudius who paved the way for the...
  8. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Yeah, I think Charlemagne is a bit underrated because of his lack of battlefield victories, in a way, he was the classic medieval commander, along, perhaps, with Bertrand du Guesclin. Medieval...
  9. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Well, I was hardly trying to argue Pompey was one of the best generals (even if we limit our survey to Romans exclusively), and certainly Sertorius should probably be added - which fits our earlier...
  10. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Heh, that's why I said "apparently" flawless records.


    Take into account the context of the European experience, with its' small kingdoms, republics, and nations fighting tooth and nail against...
  11. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Can't say I remember the details of his campaigns too well, but I remember him being fooled by Hannibal's stratagem with the oxen and the torches, probably made a few mistakes here and there, but...
  12. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Double Post.
  13. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Well, the guerilla category starts to become notorious only in more modern times, which are far from my specialty, but Fabius Maximus seems to be considered by wikipedia as a guerilla commander,...
  14. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    On that note, I was surprised not to see Tran Hung Dao on your list, he's rather notorious for his defeats of the Mongols, and to my understanding, he was quite adept in methods we'd today call...
  15. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Well, I personally think Gustavus was better than Tilly, not so much because of Breitenfeld(where Tilly pretty much defeated himself), but more because he showed more tactical sophistication at Rain...
  16. Re: The Commanders of Military History - a Compilation

    Tilly was a far more aggressive commander than Wallenstein, most of his battles involved his simply charging into his enemies. At White Mountain, this succeeded because the Bohemians had failed to...

    Re: Constantine the Supposedly Great

    A few of your accusations lack basis in reality, for example:



    1. Rome had already lost much of its' economic, strategic, and political importance during the convulsions of the Third Century,...
