Thread: Sword, Spear, and Shield Mini Mod Thread!

    4th report from my Armenian Campaign!

    Hard/Hard
    Long Campaign

    New troubles arise only a few turns later...

    I decided to strike Palmyra after Hatra to further expand my gains since it was "less gaurded" and had success for a few moments...

    Until I studied what came out of the dark into the surrounding area the following turn.

    My troubles are circled in red...


    As you can see my garrison in Hatra is very weak consisting partly of peasants due to my economic difficulties...

    NOT ONLY THAT!

    The Parthians pulled a manouver on me that I was SHOCKED with that same turn...


    They went around my frontier settlement and have layed siege on my CAPITAL!

    What a %#^& backstabbing trick!

    Losing this might result in the end for me as your initial CAPITAL CITY = Your Founding Settlement which is VERY CRUCIAL when your barely floating economically...

    I can see AT LEAST 2 Immortal units amongst the besieging force...

    Wish me luck now...

    Good games everyone!

    Interesting Fact?
    Only the emperor or triumphant generals could wear all purple, anybody else doing so would be killed.

    Ah it's because the Parthians barely border your capital region, blame the RTW devs for that one! Well I'd ditch Hatra and Palmyra and make a dash at Antioch. You'd have to beat that army, but in doing so you'd take out a good portion of their forces as well as taking their capital, which as you just said, would be a crippling blow.

    Also, take your garrison in Phraaspa and defend Artaxarta, then head east and take Arsakia. Conquest, conquest, conquest!

    I ended up deleting my campaign progress to implement the above mentioned changes...

    However, I was doing quite well.

    SSaS Version 2.3 is fairly polished now...

    I did manage to capture these though ahowl... Before I lost my Campaign progress.

    I was using EVERY OUNCE of my RTW knowledge to stay afloat! It was a good one and I will rise to try it again sometime.

    New Campaign started!

    Hard/Hard
    Long Campaign

    I am trying out a serious campaign as Carthage for the VERY FIRST TIME.

    I have never done one... and I have been playing RTW since its release!

    I have to say this is quite incredible...

    I am finally able to seriously contend with these Romans now!

    Got peanuts?


    Lets see how this goes...

    Good games everyone.

    Hello all.

    I went ahead and bumped SSaS up to the next version designation so it is easier to distinguish the updated version.

    The only change implemented was...

    Version 2.4
    -Added grain resource to rome

    The MAIN reason for this was to cut the confusion amongst the 4/5 updates applied to 2.3 with the retained version designation.

    This new designation should help clear that up...

    Good games everyone!

    A VALIANT EFFORT!
    (Leaving my mark...)

    Gaul

    Hard/Hard
    Long Campaign

    Another fun/very challenging campaign comes to an end!


    I have for the VERY FIRST TIME managed to peel back the first layer of the Roman Empire and struck a very light, but IMMORTAL BLOW against the Romans!

    Keep in mind I play SSaS on Hard/Hard.

    Conquered the Julii's Capital settlement of Arretium.


    My empire started dissolving shortly after this due to attacks in the north from Germania and Brittania! So... I went for it!

    I met up with the CORE Roman army just south of Arretium...


    On the field with the BEST ARMY IN THE GAME!


    I had NEVER achieved this!

    The Battle Results.


    Now, while I didnt defeat them, this was a definite LEAP FORWARD to one day hopefully doing so!

    I only see myself developing greater and greater tactics!

    One day, I will get them!

    Good games to all!

    CONTENDING WITH THE ROMANS!
    (Not a step further...)

    Carthage

    Hard/Hard
    Long Campaign

    An update on the Carthaginian campaign I had started, which is the one I have been playing.

    I am finally managing to contend with the Romans and the fight has been progressive...


    As you can see here... I have secured a nice foothold on the mainland of Italy, however, going any further is going to require some serious bloodshed given the armies the Romans have lined up on my borders.

    Some Egyptian conscripts...


    I hope this will be the breakthrough for me and I will finally be able to defeat these Romans! (I never play on easy.)

    Good games everyone!

    A second update on the Carthaginian campaign I have been playing.

    Armoured Elephants in support on their "High Towers"...

    THE TIP OF MY SPEAR!
    (The ancient Greeks...)

    Macedon

    Hard/Hard
    Long Campaign

    After a second failed attempt (not the one I posted before) with Gaul on Hard/Hard I decided to try and get another second campaign going along side my Carthaginian campaign.

    That Gaul campaign on Hard/Hard WITHOUT CHEATING I would really rate for an EXPERT player not only in RTW but with SSaS as well...

    It is a BEAST.

    In a back and forth power struggle with these Romans...


    After a successful landing on Italy the Romans managed to completely annihilate the army I had landed there...

    They REALLY dont want me on mainland Italy.

    Perfecting my "phalanx" tactics... Poor Romans.


    A shot of my Macedonian empire in its current state.


    I have pretty much managed to take hold of the Greek mainland.

    The struggle still exists and victory is still uncertain.

    Good games everyone!

    Hey Peep. Don't mind if I use your mod to make the some balance tests?

    I want to do stuff like buff the phalanx attack and nerf its defence. I mean, this way you could get rid of those pesky and long inter-greek battles ,as I call them, where phalanx fights phalanx for eternity.

    Have you tested this with SSaS in its current state Kirila?

    Every unit has NEW armour values based off actual models.

    It does not have identical values to RTW 1.5...

    Nah well check this out if you get a chance.

    You may be surprised...

    Good games.
