I am sorry to disappoint you, but I never heard of such a feature/possibility for M2TW.

I've always thought about some kind of refilling in the armory
but that's just an idea - I don't think thats possible or even wanted. You know, just something that came to me when I was outta arrows when defending

Simply not possible mate

What? That can be done in Rome Total War? No way!? Never heard of it before.

It was certainly an option in the original Medieval total war - a simple 'click' for no ammunition limits.

it wouldn't make that much sense. I agree archers should be made way more effective in sieges, but they aren't because they have to fire in that huge arc when standing behind the parapets. btw, can't that be fixed? I wouldn't mind them firing trough the parapets, if that's possible.

I though that archers had a certain number of arrows set in their ,,config file". What if you just set it from 30 to 200?

but yea, that wouldn't only work when defending but when attacking too

so, they always carry that amount of arrows with them?

sometimes it would be nice, but if youare playing against elves.... you know what I mean

but, because I'm almost always palying with elves....

(I think it would be great)

Its not possible to have unlimited ammunation for archers, you must have a certain amount of arrows. Also the number of arrows each archer has it the same in defence and offence.

Never heard it was posiblle in any TW game...

no, unlimited arrows, that's for sure.

but what is the highest amount for them?

**servium** · February 21, 2010, 08:10 AM

in all total war games its possible... except empire, but thats because they have hidden their files of sumething. i could always go to the preference map with every game of total war (and again except empire) then put the thing thats called limited_arrows from TRUE to FALSE and there you go, unlimited arrows.... it reallu bugs me cuz it should work for this mod to... all other mods i tried it could be done to. and yes i know that trick to increase the capacity by every unit... but it just takes so long and its boring...

**Maxamus** · February 21, 2010, 01:39 PM

Unlimited is alot of arrows...

**Muffer Nl** · February 21, 2010, 01:46 PM

Let's face it. When you get unlimited arrows the Dwarves are doomed...

**yobi_uk** · February 21, 2010, 09:34 PM

They'd be porcupined dwarves...and if you use the Arrows Stay sub mod you'll have a health and safety hazard of a battlefield, then you'll have blokes with clip boards dooming all the factions in the game......

er... just have loads of archers defend the city then if you like them arrows...I'z like sticking any bugger climbing up me walls with me long pointy sticks...er yeah, spears...not arrows.

I thought for sure in RTW u could just set it to Arcade for custom battles and it would give you unlimited ammunition, no morale penalties and your troops wouldnt get tired.
