ongoing campaigns progress and pics

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

Nice! Can't wait to see the battle of the traitor!

I hope I recorded good pictures, I had three different battles that turn
PS The traitor has an awesome army, I know I hired it. He also has family in some high places. I feel a purge coming on

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

Hunyadi Mátyás leads his troops after former comrades, the now traitorous Ispán of Syrmia
The following campaining season Mátyás outmanouvered the traitorous Ban



Spies report the enemy fields good forces


Battle is joined









Attacked from the rear the enemy is broken and hunted down with no quarter qiven



Sorry Didn't get any good battle scenes

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

More on the way
Pal Szecsi the traitor was a hero see post #6 he defeated the Sultan and another army


Does anyone know a programe to make the mouse icon invisible for screen shots?

[PavleSubich]

Post battle of Smerdervero

What is very interesting here, is so many AI full-stacks (ie Ottomans). Are these scipted or the AI is able to muster such full-stacks?

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

The Ottomans can now, because I gave them cash. Once they have that much territory they can produce vast armies. Not far from the truth. It would be great to see them led by the Sultan again. It might of been a freak occasion

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

It is 1484 and Padishah Mehmet Fatih is leading yet another attempt at conquest





Now I have to fight himm quickly, before my allies retreat or the Ottomans are reinforced in strength
(It might sound like I'm weird but I'm going to try "not" to win I don't want the Sultan killed yet)

The battle turned into a slog and The Voivode Ștefan cel Mare was killed and after hours all forces withdrew with massive casualties











1485 and it would seem the Ottomans have turned their attention back to Bosnia

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

T'is Winter 1497 a winter of discontent, come the campaign season a huge battle, the likes of which have never seen before shall take place

[PavleSubich]

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

An update of the current situation on the outbreak of the battle of Donji Kraji 1498

[PavleSubich]

thats how u will win

[Jurand of Cracow]

@Antiokhos, this battle didn't crash for you? In the SSHIP, we've got a problem that battles with more armies on either side tend to crash, it's interesting there're no such problems in the Tsardoms.

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

@Jurand of Crackow I have not fought it just yet, but it's l by loaded just fine, and, as you may of noticed I have fought several battles with multiple armies. It's not my machine it's getting on a decade now.

PS. Does anyone know how to get rid of unit highlight -yellow /green arrow and unit description during battle?
And if possible hide mouse in pictures
Thank you very much

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

The battle begins with artillery and musketry fire

[PavleSubich]

better but still u could do much better!
now i see your heavy cav had loses so i presume u used them ofensivley?
when i played against ottomans with hungary i had loses like that "350" that is good but i only had 1 army and they would have 2 or 3 armies 2000 strong

Sometimes i only lost 100 men LOL!
What i would do is put the fort wagons in the front,musketers/arquebusiers just a line further in the back and then reischlaufer behind them.
I only used caw to respond to flankings and to capture routing units.It is optimal for long turn defending against turks.

They newer came close to defete me nor damage my heeavy cav nor many of my reislaufers.Thay will only damage wagon forts but they are easly replaced cuz i only had 2 pro army.

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

True, but I wish them to be 'real' well as much as a game can give me and they have to look like this
If you imagine this in colour and looking at battle casualities. I think it is a realistic result. Most were killed during route

[Anubis88]

You can basically always win vs the AI in MTWII. If you play unrealistic tactics it's an easy win, the AI can't cope with them. Same as if you put only elite units in your stack that hard counter you opponents armies. I don't know how anyone finds that fun though.

[PavleSubich]

well its when u fight against 3-4 ottoman armies in a row.
I cant but play best that i know and that is why i would like tsardoms sometime disabeling recruitment of certain units after certain tim.Like fort wagons.I think that the late game gives uthe player to musch good units to recruit.Its cool to get new better units but it would be better if the game disabeled us of recruiting even more of them.For now the game cancels sezleky canv,nokkers,the earliest gunners and ranconeri militia.None of them are that powerfull.

I asume that we all played DAC or something LOTR based
Its much harder and u cant wait a unit to become recruitable cuz u lack all of them
