    Icon3 What is your favorite way to play Kingdoms?

    Ok I thought this would be a good time for a new head count on Kingdoms players. So what is your favorite way to play? Online, solo?

    Feel free to leave comments.


    Thanks!

    Nothing now i know the 2h bug exists in kingdoms as well. I have uninstalled it and want my money back.

    actuly ill leave it till I've finished my youtube series of videos showing why its the worst game in existence. I have never ever felt such hatred towards a material object.

    Actually it does apply to you... so which one do you play your kingdoms disk with. Doesn't matter if it's modified.

    Actually the two hand bug has been fixed a long time ago. In infact it's been fixed in M2 as well. If you don't believe me check out my Varangian Guards cleaving the crap out of horse and man a like here

    I would suggest you update, because I haven't seen it for a long time.

    my Lithuanian axemen get owned by even order spears and they price armour.

    what against sword millita and completely outnumbered cav? Either the animation is still bugged or the sheild bug fix is still making them unbalanced because they suck.

    And I like solo best because I win against the AI, real intelligence is too hard to beat. And the PC I have my games on is 1. laggy on the web, and 2. not connected to the web at the moment (it hasn't been for 2 years...)

    I wouldn't put Lithuanian ax men against a larger heavy spear unit, infact I wouldn't put them against spear at all. The defense & numbers win out over shear strength in attack. Spear units are used primarily to tie up your good units.

    it's pretty hard when the liths are really poor and literary their only other infantry is light spears and crappy millta.

    Have you fought order spears they are better than the average spearmen. and don't even get me started on dismounted ribters(sp?). The liths cant even afford crossbows or much else. about the only thing decent is massed Baltic archers which again your poor eco prevents. Those axes have 16 attack and decent defence they should rip though anything armoured but don't. I was using the spears as an example as they are amomg the weaker tet units.

    Well orders have what like 18 or 20 defensive or something? and like 11 attack? I see you points. I only played the vanilla campaign when M2 was released so I can't really comment on your strategy. But I guess by comparison my Varangians have 20 attack and 15 defense.

    however, ritterbruders are not spears and a well placed cavalry charge will take a lot of them out. rinse and repeat

    @Armatus

    2H axemen are really underpowered, their stats might be fine but their animations are way to slow resulting in an interruption by the enemy in 90% of the cases and even if it doesnt get interrupted theres just a huge chance even against peasants that the blow will be blocked, dodged or survived.

    @TrueForlornhope

    Every game has it flaws and shouldnt be completely judged on those, CA wont give u your money back and the chance that they'll fix it is close to nihil as well. I advice u to play M2TW with mods, some like SS or DLV have submods with it that include new animations which again includes a fast swing animation for 2h axemen.

    Seriously, LOL@UWTFBBQ. You are quitting the game because a certain unit type is underpowered? Get a spine and either finish your campaign because the AI is still retarded nonetheless or start a new campaign with a faction that specialises into a different direction.
