GREAT FIND

Nice, except that onagers can't bring their Catapults from the ships.

yeh, i hope CA patch it in later !!

You can't bring horses from ships either. If you can bring catapults, you damn well should be able to land Equites. I'm actually find with this, I don't think I've ever heard of ancient marine assaults from mounted calvary or artillery.

Probably to also make the player bring in warships to support the invasion rather than just having us rely solely on transports.

Nope. Read somewhere that this was intentional, along with cavalry not being able to bring their horses.

aaah ok thats fine then, btw is it just me or does this battle still look like a bit of a moshpit in the middle of the city,

didnt they say that there were going to take that style of sieges out of the game ??!!!

Not being able to off load artillery or cavalry just after you hit the beach is very realistic CA got it right. Horses need some kind of ramp to get the off on to the beach. If you try to jump them from a ship onto the beach too many would break a leg and end up on the menu that night ( a horse can jump a hedge or fence not down from the side of a ship). The artillery would be unassembled on ship and have to be off loaded and re-assembled that would a lot of man power and time....

i honestly dont see those little guys removing a catapult from a ship without heavy equipment

[Fishdawg]

hahah awsome

[Luzspit]

Great video! Thanks

These assaults will be awesome!

[JaM]

not just that... i was surprised that cavalry ability are active even if Equites dismounted... doesnt make much sense

I agree with the cavalry ability. It should be greyed out while dismounted.

Agreed, maybe it was a an elite cavalry unit it should get *another* ability while dismounted, but I don't really agree with unit abilities for every single unit, that's one thing I look forward to being modded to only formations and maybe abilities for elite, key units (generals etc)

[perifanosEllinas]

Nice

Now this is starting to look like a real Let's play!

Amfibious attacks seem rather interesting (getting some pizza to watch the attack) ;p

[Aruberikku]

Looking good, can't wait.

Laughed when that Italian Spearman took a javelin to a very sensitive area; and the one who took two javelins to his arm.

[Dan113112]

I thought the battle speed was actually quite decent.
