What is even meant by "battle"? Multiplayer battle, campaign battle, campain itself, custom battle, historical battle...

I hope Rome II doesn't win, because I don't want the ed up beehive DLC, if they give it for free I'll have to look for a mod to undo that nossens, because otherwise the AI can use it....

If they give it for free it will be like the Nomadic faction pack, you don't have to get it, though the AI might.

He notes that in his post, he doesn't want it for free because then he might suddenly find his soldiers getting swarmed by killer bees and flying pots of snakes and scorpions. I don't want it for for free for this very reason myself.

Each time that you register a victory in a battle during gameplay, this shall be automatically registered in the number of winning battles for that Game. The following rules apply for Battle Victories to be recorded:

Rome II: Only player resolved battles in campaign mode will register a victory (ie. no
auto-resolve victories will be recorded as a Battle Victory).

COH 2: Any battles (all game modes) where a victory is registered shall record a
Battle Victory, including where the player is victorious against a CPU opponent.


There is no limit to the number of battles that you can participate in during the Promotion
Period. Each battle victory which satisfies the above criteria will be registered as a winning
Battle Victory for that Game.

If it's for free and it works like the Nomadic factions you will have it for free, but not automatically (as far as I remember). The problem is that, regardless of whether it's free or not, with it will come an update, which will put the new units in the game, they will not be available to you unless you own the DLC, but I do not know if they will also be unavailable for the AI. That's all I'm trying to say. I'd also be annoyed by the AI making armies of Snake Pot Ballistae, as if its army composition wasn't barely reasonable already.

[UgurJohn]

Its a trap.

Ah now I get ya.

Hahaha you just cant make this stuff up.....
SEGA is the worst thing that has ever happened to the TW series.

In celebration of the contest however I will be playing neither.

Is Rome II worth picking up at $30? I've gotten my money's worth out of every TW title ever made, pretty much (Napoleon might be an exception, because it's the only one I've paid full retail for since Medieval 2), so the question is, can I expect to get 30 hours out of the game as it stands? I'm aware it's no EB or RS, but all I really want is some next-gen graphics Romans chucking pilums in a playable, and hopefully enjoyable, campaign mode.

I would suggest try DEI (Divide et Impera) mod. It is still being develop (newest version is 0.75), but it already brings me 100 hours of fun (out off 135 I spend playing Rome 2).

May aswell give it a whirl chaps, without sounding like a flipflopper or suck up, CA may be overly proud in there design decision thinking, thinking they no best, but maybe, if we can help give erm a win, they will try and fix the game with enthusiasm if they do?, if not, nothing lost, nothing gained, since whatever there intentions may be, they haven't made them totally clear yet, due to there general lack of communication, but maybe we should give them benefit of the doubt, see were it takes us. Plus free DLC, is free DLC, although sill fairly pointless:/ since the AI hasn't a shot in hell at using it, But obviously need to earn this DLC unfortunately.

Don't shoot me down guys,

[SirRobin]

So I can choose between playing these games or making love?

I hope I am not insulting anybody by saying that it should be a ridiculously easy choice.

But I suppose some of the forum members are not old enough yet to be able to choose.

[pajomife]

Two franchises ruined by Sega battle it out against each other.

I cant agree with you,COH2 could have some balance problems and the lack of old game lobby annoys me,but it is a fantastic game,I must play at least one online battle a day at least,is like heroin,I'm addicted to that game,there is no possible comparison with the Rome2 fiasco,not even close.Is simple the best game I play in the moment and I advise you people to buy it.

LOL, yep me too!

[Lord Baratheon]

Kinda real annoying that Caesar in Gaul isnt on sale. I may have actually gotten it for £5. Looks decent enough at that price. Plus it is Rome so Caesar in Gaul is something I'd want to have.

[TomR199]

Since there is no price listed for BOW DLC, perhaps this will be the free DLC if Rome 2 wins. Im off sunday morning from my workweek and will participate gathering as many victories i can!

Someone from CA already stated on the official forum that BoW will be the one released for free.

Any campaign battle win counts, as long as it's fought manually. The quickest way to win battles is to attack an outmatched rebel army, set the speed to x3 and just charge with everything
