Questions about 1.5 patch

[IrishBlood]

These may be stupid questions but bare with me;

Is it a stand alone patch? I noticed that the 2 patchs combined are over 5 GB big and am a bit surprised by the sheer size, is it just like any other patch?

Does the patch require an english translation?

and finally, is Valtan included?

[Krystoforos]

Probably: yes, yes, yes

From Russian forum:
Installing.
1. The Mod is installed over M2TW Kingdoms version 1.5
2. Unzip the archive with the Mod, launch the installer (file with extention EXE) and install the Mode into the folder Medieval II Total War\mods\
3. Get sure that there has appeared a new folder Call_of_Warhammer in the folder mods!!! If it is not there, search for it in the folder \Program Files, maybe the path of installment was given in a wrong way. When you find it, drag the folder Call_of_Warhammer int your folder Medieval II Total War\mods\ . In this case you will also need to edit the path in the tag into correcnt one.
5. The mod is started by the shortcut on the desktop, or by the file \mods\Call_of_Warhammer\warhammer.bat
6. Play.

I'm pretty sure it's standalone

EDIT:
If you have to download in small parts, I recommend ones below mirror4, you can download simultaneously multiple files, no waiting time, and good speed, atleast for me.

Im not so sure if it is, my existing CoW folder is 9.30 GB big, so maybe 1.5 is just really really big normal patch or something!?

also i think i'll just wait until someone puts up a torrent link

Does anyone if it is save compatible? probably not?

you have to remove your old 1.4.4 folder so im guessing no

I'm guessing we will have to wait for the translation for 1.5? I know I can't wait to play the Chaos Dwarfs as a faction. I would kill to have GW give us a Chaos Dwarf army book and models.

I have a fan-made Chaos Dwarven army book pdf file if you're interested

I've heard rumors that Forge World's stuff is getting tied closer to GW's lines, so the Legion of Azgorh might be tournament legal soon.

Thanks for the links and Pilgrim feel free to share. I've played Warhammer going back to the late 1980's and one of my friends who sadly was killed in action in Iraq always used his Chaos Dwarf army. It wasn't tourney legal but no one cared in our circle of friends. I know when I play them in this mod I will be thinking of him and how much glee he had when he won against our group of friends for the glory of Hashut.

Everything in russian??
PS:post roster of chaos dwarfs.....

[Tyraels]

yep everything in russian . i have tested few things in campaign (but i deleted menu-english that is in russian and put the old one from 1.4.4 for having menu in english..Without that you cant navigate in the game because the game cant read cyrillics caracters)

For the roster : the two units of real chaos dwarf (musket..and basics armoured soldiers) which was already here , lot of gobelins and hobgobelins included Wolf riders (2 sorts) which are the principal column of the roster , blacks orcs & destroyers , and something like 3 new artilleries (rocket launcher on wheels, big mortar,..etc) + hellcanon ; chaos trolls and chaos ogres in the last level of buildings .

There are 2 cities , one a the far south east, in the corner, and one other at the east of the maps in the mountains

[T&D]

hmmm black orcs in chaos dwarfs roster???

[Tyraels]

yep , in the lore they have always been the slaves of chaos dwarves ! its normal

[Leonidas]

Interesting. What about Immortals, bull centaurs or the half stone sorcerers for the Chaos Dwarfs?

[Tyraels]

Didnt see them in the regular roster...Maybe in AOR or events

edit : they are not playable in custom battles (about immortals,bull centaurs ..And sorcerer) so i guess they arent implemented

[Ethien]

Could I have two folders? One for 1.4.4 and another for 1.5? I have to continue my old campaign, but I also want to try out the new stuff!

[Grymloq]

So giants, demons and wolves are still out of the game due to instability?

couldn't understand why something so simple as removing torches would have allowed many units to function flawlessly. I would have rather endured all this time without torches, but that is just me i guess.

oops! in fact I did, as I hung on to 1.4.1 longer than most ,so I could play with trolls and chaos hounds.
