Your way to play ''Rome:Total war''

[gazda]

the way i played it,

stack up 20 legionary units and attack

Couldn't agree more.

After trying Europa Barbarorum I just dropped RTR instantly. It's an amazing mod.

As Carthage I got like 2-3 scripted historical events that made characters appear and stuff, it's amazing how much historical detail is in the mod itself.

Just reading the descriptions of the Units and Buildings itself is a enjoyable experience.

Regarding EB: How the hell do you play as Casse? You start out with one small town with next to no income, small starting gold and a small, shitty army, surrounded by neutral towns, each with a garrison a ton more powerful than yours and an incoming eleutheroi army from the north...

Trading with the Eleutheroi? O_o

FFS, now I want to play Europa Barbarorum.

Never played as Casse, also the guide is quite old. However it tells you to disband armies and fleets, and grow economically at the first few years. If you're neutral with the Eleutheroi, which is a big O.o for me as well, you should use that to your advantage.

Hey guys which mod is better?

Europa Barborum or Roma Surrectum?

Europa Barborum or Roma Surrectum?

They are both really good. Depends on what faction you like to play as I suppose. If you like non Roman factions, then Europa Barborum. If you like Roman factions, then Roma Surrectum. I play Roman factions, so I am partial to Roma Surrectum myself.

Okay, EB is totally addictive, even after having played R:TW, R:TW - BI and M2:TW with all expansions ad nauseum.
Still, some things i find annoying, even retarded. Not being able to get a good overview of a factions troop tree is irritating, for example.
Roving defender armies, however, are full-on retarded? A full-stack of elite-quality troops, lead by a super-general, patrolling around a small town, able to move at least twice the distance of a normal army, that RESPAWNS TO FULL STRENGTH every turn, even after getting completely wiped? Uh, okay...

[Christo]

Good god, RTW/EB campaign map "AI" is just irritating like that.

Is that supergeneral an Eleutheroi army leader? Those are ridiculously powerful, celtiberia comes to my mind for an example.

Even worse if you set the difficulty way too high, it just cheats even more.

Also the diplomacy.. total garbage.

my way of playing it:

"shift+¨" "add_money_20000"
"shift+¨" "add_money_20000"
"shift+¨" "add_money_20000"
"shift+¨" "process_cq_x"

my way of playing it:

"shift+¨" "add_money_20000"
"shift+¨" "add_money_20000"
"shift+¨" "add_money_20000"
"shift+¨" "process_cq_x"

 

you do know that you can add_money 40k?

Playing Rome Total War without the Roma Surrectum mod is goddam sad.

Ahhh the quote from Julius Ceasar, I may be mistaking, but I thought 'Of all the Gauls, the belgae are the greatest.'

Iirc Cesar meant it as "Belgae stoopid", so "brave" fits better. I am probably mistaking though.
