Also seen as the Byzantium (Which was reformed to Byzantine empire as per orders of Basileos Jakius I Komnenos after "reclaiming" vast lands) on the EU_A_PW_LAMEPLAY pwmod server, quite possibly the most whiner dominated server ever.

Its an ok server, but its just full of trolls, they should make the game-less trollable by adding restrictions to the mod itself.

Honestly I had less problems with trolls than the fuck-awful, terribad admins on that server. A collection of a few marvelous tales follows.

Actually RP a proper robbery, first thing after leaving the scene is the robbed guys complaining to admins and reporting the robbers as "randoming". Quite frankly, in a realistic scenario it would have been understandable to rip their anuses apart on the first sign of uncooperation when we had to wait while they tried to fucking BARGAIN WITH ROBBERS.

Pointless pink "announcements" every 10 seconds, more than half of which are just admins using the announcement system as a special global chat. To top it off half the stuff they say is mistyped, possibly due to cheetos fingers sliding all over their greasy keyboards. The admins are also incredibly biased and listen to all complaints without questioning their authenthicity. Admins should also should have a grasp on basic english, like the words "you're" and "your", "said" instead of "sayed" and so on, it just shouts incompetent and underage.

Admins can't deal with anything properly. Once when we were again reported for "randoming" which was taking castles and actually *gasp* playing the game - their solution was to disband our faction, obviously making us unable to make another faction. Other cases of stupidity involve town watch slaughtering peasants who punch their armoured horses or just fistfight.

The actual enviorment is piss poor for actual RP, the town offers some hubs but literally NOONE uses the tavern, the sewers or anything in town apart from the centre. To top it off - most RP I have seen in pwmod has been "GOLD OR UR LYF" and "*poster* ASSASSIN  FOR HIRE" and I still haven't seen a poster that could type "assassin" correctly. Not to mention metagaming from the admins and town watch, I made an alt with a normal medieval name just to give it a chance and I was referred to by my first & last name ALL THE TIME. The admins in black armour and plated chargers don't break immersion btw, especially when they go for races along the coast with their buttbuddies. None of the admins or tw have actual RP names from what I have seen, tags are fucking unnecesarry - you have a heraldic tabard.


The only ok thing about the server is that it has a good map and players on it, that's about it. I was also kicked for saying "jewsland" for Jerusalem (how the hell is that offensive) and because of a joke that involved the word "homosexual" and "buttmassage" without warning, while a guy called SLAVE_ was asking for a master for a few hours on the server along with the occasional slavery joke. Which somehow reminds me that the admins expect a reason to attack a castle, almost like that was EU3 - we just want your land, wenches, tears and equipment.

Bump.

I'm trying to play as the Seljuk Turks in Stainless Steel mod, but I'm really struggling to keep a hold of my lands. It seems as if all the surrounding factions have more than afew big armies, while I can only support one single full army of Turkish horse archers and two Alan cavalry. Is it the starting location I'm having problems with? Some suggestions would be really great.

Fighting Sicilians,  Fatimids, Genoese and Hungarians in my campaign as Byzantium atm . Captured and destroyed Venice =).
In the beggining of my campaign i gave Trebizond to Seljuks and allied with them. They're suppoed to be Byzantium's biggest enemies and greatest threat, but i'm just keeping good relations with them via throwing a thousand or two from time to time. Once i'm done with Italy, i'll turn on them . Or maybe i'll try to ally and save the Holy Roman Empire (they're being crusaded :D )... dunno.

So yeah, you can try doing what i did- neutralize your most dangerous enemy by becoming his ally. =)
