The craziest thing you have done in RTW!

[mikoli]

I was playing with the Seleucids,controlling Asia and Africa,so I decided to CONQUER Europe.I attacked Greek Cities and their only town Sparta and captured it.But near Sparta was rebel general who was once family member of the Greek Cities.Because of the fact that I had more than 1 million denarii in cash i tried to bribe him and he asked for 798.000 denarii-AND I ACCPEPTED.Yes, he was very expensive but when looked his traits I saw that he was a Great Commander and Famously Courageous and Obsessed by Security.Also he had 3 gold chevrons and 8 stars.After 2 years he became my faction leader and he had 60 bodyguards 10 stars and nicknamed Mighty.With him I destroyed 17 full Roman stacks with urbans and praetorians before I captured Rome.

Nice job.
Of course he could not stand up to my army of gold militia hops that I trained in Thrace...

It's the weirdest thing...
In every Julii campaign I play, the Gauls pull 4-5 double gold/silver/silver Peasants and 3 Warbands with the same upgrades out of their butts. No idea where they come from, but it's frightening fighting them.

I spawned them!
That is frightening though...what year and difficulty is this? What faction are you playing?

[Xavier Dragnesi]

Never done much crazy stuff on RTW....probably the randomest I've ever gotten is getting one unit of Greek archers to besiege a full stack Macedonian city, then use the "auto_win" cheat to see what would happen. In the end, the archers were left with about 20 men, and double gold experience, with a total of about 3400 kills.

I have a bunch of crazy stories from when I had just gotten RTW,
Charging faction leader straight into spartans.
Charging faction leader right into spear warband.
Charging faction leader right into well you get the idea.

[Xavier Dragnesi]

Hehe, well everyone does stupid stuff like that to start with

[Elysium]

The stupidest thing was probably my first bridge battle..
It was only a small army of rebels defending the bridge, so I try to make the battle short by sending about 4 units of Principe across at once - huge mistake.
It was so annoying to see about half my army bundled up and around 100 men falling into the river every couple of seconds

[Legio]

I used to send one unit of equites at German Spear warbands head-on.
On a bridge.

My General died smashing into my own phalanx unit's pikes.
I wonder if that hoplite said Sorry?

[Prince_of_Macedon]

I was fighting a Greek opponent once (forgot his name). He decided to march towards one of his corners. Instead of following him, I went in the opposite direction to my corner. When my opponent saw what I was doing, he left the game.

[Nevski]

Such a cheater!
He wanted to use the red line to place his spartans, didn't he?

[Darth Ravenous]

Yeah he did and I only cheat after I beat a game on very hard.

[Darth Ravenous]

Hmmmm let me think I know I conquered the whole world and kept on going for about 100 years to see what would happen then amazingly I rebel broke out named Spartacus go figure and took everyone of my cities execpt rome and I was left to spend another 500 trying to get it back.

[IAmTheWarchief]

I started a battle against a computer opponent on very hard, I was Julii and I think he was Germany or something, and as Im about to start my maneuvers the first flaming onager bullet they fire streaks into my lines and kills my general.

.....yes, I lost.

that's skillful, not crazy

[TheTrueGreek]

its kind of stupid, more or less, i just had them to spare and i was like, hey, ill go see what happens, i was quite amazed by the results

[Nevski]

I think bravery = stupidity (in most of the cases)
