Mongols getting beaten all the time

[LoneWolf94]

Hey guys, A total war veteran here, who finally decided to make a forum account not long ago.


Eitherway, this is my first thread started so go easy on me hehe, but I have a question.




I have played Medieval 2 for a long time and the same goes to Broken Crescent.


But there is one thing that always happen on every playthrough.


The mongols invade, take a few cities from the kwarezms and then gets beaten by the huge and powerful Ghurids.

The invasion such a joke, they take about 5 cities then gets beaten heavily.


I always play on VH , VH, could that be the reason?


Eitherway, I'm pretty sure the mongols are not that many because of balancing but I just could not hold myself but ask:


Does this happen on your playthroughs aswell? Does the mongols get a few cities and get destroyed? (Not neccesarily destroyed after a few turns, but they are not growing)


Thanks in advance this is the greatest M2tw mod for me and always been.

Addendum:

Sorry if I have posted this in the wrong section.


Also, to understand you guys about my true feeling behind this is, I want to experience the "horror of the mongol invasion"


I could say the same with the crusades and the venetian sack of constantinople. The ayyubids beat KoJ (KoJ makes a good last stand though, it's fun watching them fight)

The Ghorids become way too overpowered in all of my campaigns. They always beat khwarezm easily.

I would recommend downloading Byzantineboy's Jizya submod as he has beefed up the Mongols quite a bit. Here is a screenshot of the Mongols destroying the Ghurids after about 20 turns or so.

And this is before any Mongol reinforcements have arrived.

I know this is off topic, but are you using a map mod? I've been trying to make mainland Arabia and Siwa desert accessible for months with unacceptable result. Thank you.

Thanks for the replies people.

This is interesting.. Will definetively check it out, I'm quite sure I have checked all submods but, when major changes happens to the mod itself I often get discouraged but, worth a check.



Currently in my campaign, if counting the biggest empires the Ghurids own half the map from Iran to India, abbasids own the middle of the map, ayyubid owns africa and the holy lands while I own whole anatolia and kypchaks own the north along the georgian borders

Most factions are destroyed, I was hoping the mongols would even out the growth of ghorids and such but even they don't stand a chance.

I am experiencing the same thing the Ghurids just have better quality soldiers and they have as big as army as the mongols do. The Mongols always capture few cities but because of their large armies they run out of money so they can't retrain their men or their walls and recruit more men. What i would do either go to files and increase the amount of money the Mongols have so that they are able to recruit soldiers when they capture new cities. There is the other option which is use the ~ cheat button and give the mongols ton of money every turn so they will not run out of money easily and become more devastating and horrible like they were in real life. This is just my opinion
