i just went back and forth for awhile, while i built up my forces then i slaughtered them all, (ie all the scots) which erased them from the game,no more scot problem.Although as soon as i defeated them the Byzantiums declared war so know im fighting France and them, at least there not causing havoc on my islands though.

[phowa]

lol the french got wiped out by rebels on mine xD rebels have more land then any1 else

I mine its those damn Byzantiums they seem to control most everything and the buggers won't except a ceasefire so i have to methodicaly destroy them too I guess.

hey next time you start a game you could always change your opening money from $10,000 to 1,000,000 just go to
C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeMedievalMOD\Data\world\maps\base, look for- descr_strat.txt open it and scroll to this-
(faction romans_julii, fortified smith
denari 10000
settlement)
just add a couple of zero's to the 10000

then do the same to this-
C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeMedievalMOD\Data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign,
look for- descr_strat.txt

open it and scroll to the same as above
next time you start a game youll have a million denari, just a thought

I believe these two would work: C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeMedievalMOD\Data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign\descr_strat.txt , and C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeMedievalMOD\Data\world\maps\campaign\Crusade States\descr_strat.txt. This shouldn't do anything: C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeMedievalMOD\Data\world\maps\base\descr_strat.txt??? That file shouldn't be in the base folder, in fact there's a lot of files in the base folder that don't belong there, but they shouldn't hurt anything. I think somebody got a little wild with copy & paste. If you really want to cheat, you can change the starting money to a maximum of 999999999.

Hey thanks for that, I just did a search for all (descr_strat.txt) files, then to be on the safe side changed all said files to 1000000 instead of 10000, your probably right that the base file doesn't do anything but I changed it anyway just in case, certaintly didn't hurt, bit of fun if you just want to slaughter every, ie no financial management necessary.

To me its not your strategies that are flawed, but your tactics. I usually play in VH/VH settings and the only losses i ever get are at sea. Maybe you should look at how you command in the battlefield instead of the whole strategy map. Try using terrain adv. , flanking, and matching the troops to the right type of troop that they are supposed to counter (i.e cav beats miss and spears beat cav). Maybe you can also try to make your inner cities have less troops than your outer cities. That usually solves my issue with sieges coming from nowhere. Hope that helps!

opp's i forgot do the same thing in-
C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeMedievalMOD\Data\world\maps\campaign\Crusade States

[phowa]

nah i want to do it legit or other wise id be unbeatable and it would get boring

[onmy6]

fair enough, what about retreating from a couple of cities and then consolidate your forces, I tryed hand back a couple of cities to try and apease them so i could get a cease fire, but they wouldn't accept the damn cities back, so im going to retreat from the cities instead

[onmy6]

on the battfield i will usually move my cavlry round to the back of the enemy and flank them from behind as quickly as possible while advancing my troops as quickly as possible for a font on assult if i time it right i would usually like the front attack to be first in action with the cavlry ingaging from behind shortly after. Good idea about the inner cities having less troops ie subsidising the outer cities
