    Default Units don't keep formation?

    Sorry to disappoint, but they do indeed keep formation, and it looks freaking terrible.





    Fact is, the whole "unit blobbiness" p is the result of far deeper problems with total war in general which cannot be fixed by simply giving everyone guard mode. Currently the barbarians truly are the only factions worth playing just because the only thing that looks worse than a battle turning into a giant blob of men is a battle turning into a giant blob of ill-fitting rectangles.

    Guard mode should be a toggle-able ability which is not enabled by default.

    Off topic, but it looks so weird without shadows :p

    It looks horrible, how? Just because they don't wrap around the other unit, which is what everyone was complaining about anyways?

    Ca has already acknowledged the fact there is indeed a "bug" in the melee combat system which causes "blobiness".

    Yep, CA has talked about it, hopefully they will fix it. In the mean time, mods will have to fill the gap. The hoplite phalanx is particularly damaged by this

    You can't fool someone who has actually played the game.This is just the initial touch of the units.Within a couple of seconds they turn into metal mosh-pits.Nice try though.

    no, they dont, which is sad enough. if you got 'em spread out like that the units on the side wont engage.
    Let me explain something to you. Um, I am not "Mr. Lebowski".
    You're Mr. Lebowski. I'm the Dude.
    So that's what you call me. You know, that or, uh,
    His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not
    into the whole brevity thing.

    Are you running any mods btw? This is the reason I stopped using the Radious mod.
