diplomacy is most powerfull weapon

Not in Med II Total War - TATW Mod.

[Latvian]

i never had such problem, reinstall? try changing any settings? run as administrator?

[Latvian]

maybe you know why i sometimes get random game shutdowns? when i sometimes click on factions when starting new campaign it crashes to desktop without any error or when i pick factions in costum battle.

[Havoco]

Has anyone else had the crashing on starting battles bug??? It has the weirdest fix Ive ever seen in a game or mod. LOL DAMN U DAYLIGHT SAVINGS

Anyways, Ive been playing Rhun lately and the campaign seems pretty easy so far. I had a few close calls but found that vetted javelin throwers are just beast.

This may help u guys. Turn daylight savings off if its turned on.

[Havoco]

It's in ur clock settings on ur computer toolbar. Can't remember precisely where, because its been awhile and I'm not at my computer right now.

Also, it might be European summer time if ur in EU

[Havoco]

I know I didn't get it either.

Well, turning that off worked for me when I got the crashes for starting a campaign. Not sure if that would fix the battle crashes too.

[Havoco]

I hope it works for u.

[Latvian]

i crashed 2 times in same battle, than i launched game as administrator and it worked, maybe that will work for you as well.

They actually released version 3.2 sometime late last year and I completely missed it:

I got back into it (to get warmed up for Rome II) and it plays better than ever! My High Elves are really fulfilling their role of parachuting in and helping out other good factions where needed and its a blast beating those nasty orcs with showers of arrows.

There are also some interesting sub-mods out there that add more factions and tons of other stuff:

Have fun!

I never even played any medieval TW, downloaded few days ago and also got third age 3.2 mod.

both alot of fun setting wise, but people said shogun 2 was dumbed down so I was expecting more depth but actually there was just a whole lot less. medieval europe is maybe my favourite TW setting, but I do want tech trees and trading resources etc.

all TW games kind of suffer from the same kind repitition, rome 2 looks brilliant and im super excited but im worried it will end up the same type of repitition in the endgame.

STW2 is a much superior game, CA did actually make quite a lot of gameplay progress in the 5 years between MTW2 and STW2. It's "dumbed down" in the sense that you don't have to micro manage dozens of trivial agents and settlements but overall gameplay is more pleasant and the AI is a lot better. I like the way in RTW2 they are acknowledging the repetition factor and trying to balance the game so there's fewer but more decisive battles, and less stack/siege spam.

Definitely one of the better mods that has been made for any game, would be great if something similar were to come out for TWR2 in a year or two.

[Taser]

I must thank warcat for bumping this...

I never even knew about this. I will be trying this later today. THis looks so awesome.

[Fips]

Haven't played it in like over 6 months, i shall check out if any of the submods got ready for the game. There were some pretty awesome ones in progress.
