Some good questions

[Christian Strand]

First question, not that important but what does Deus Lo Vult means? I understand its French?

Im playing DLV with its patch.. Everything seems to work, but one thing about the cavalry when they charge and fight, they spread around the field 10 times more spreaded around than in "loose formation".. Like the balls in a pool game.. lol. Is this normal?

And another thing i need to know what it means with the first question at the beginning which asks if i want TW or something else.. Can someone explain what they do and mean?

Thanks

Deus Lo Vult means "God will's it!" and it's Latin.

Cavary charge spread is normal, and is a part of DLV experiance. More realistic Cavaraly charges. AFAIK it's some mini mod incorporated into DLV.

TW or Something else probable means do you want a Total war game (non-stop war) or Something else (normal game?).

Okey thanks for reply

It doesnt say "Something else" though, its just that i cant remember what it says, but i know its TW or something else, but dont know what.. And dont know what they mean either.. TW will that do so the AI will attack me all the time or just make war with eachother random?

i chose TW as the Turks and had 10 full stacks on my ass after a crusade was called on me

It's actually a medival version of vulgar latin. The french version is spelled, dieu le veut.

If you don't like the cavalry spread, then just install the BB mod. And it's done to make the realism of cavalry charging and spreading. Aka. to not acting like a single unit, with a single brain.

Total War AI is like every other nation focus on you from the very start.

Standard DLV allow for a slower total war start(20-40 turms), so you can get your building ready, as recommended by Repman, to have a normal economy.

Total War AI - every other nations is not attack from the very start.
Standard DLV - every other nations is not attack from 20-40 turns

I dont think its realistic when the cavalry is running to different directions away from the battle, like 200 meters to different directions.


The "Standard DLV", so does that mean it gives you time to prepare, then around 40 turns, the game will be normal, like the AI might or might not attack?

Total war=everyone gets into a blood orgy right of the bat
Standard means you get a few dozen turns of breathing space before death and destruction

as for the calvary it is realistic, it was impossible to keep a formation when all that is going on
