How many of you have that game, and whats your fav fraction ? | ||||
julii! | ||||
hmmm... they are cool but their colonies are poor, personaly i prefer Scipii | ||||
i think julii have the best starting position, they can conquer whoever they want from the start! | ||||
I don't have it :( | ||||
just go out and buy it... | ||||
lol, ture, but Gual citys are crap. You also have to weave in and out of the alps & you don't get as good bonouses from temples... | ||||
if the first city yo take is carthage...you will kick booty | ||||
nope the 2nd ;-)) 1st is Greek, | ||||
no, you can choose what you take... | ||||
True, but i always follow orders from the senate. | ||||
i think there is a forum o totalwar.com and there are other total war forums like heaven thing....why not you all discuss this there actually? | ||||
/me starts pushing Ramiel around | ||||
Scipii are my favorite fraction. | ||||
i also like the Selucids, The Eygiptions are my favourites, though i haven't played them yet... I don't like the greeks. (Their to slow) | ||||
Every faction is awesome lol....seriously, I like them all. Some of my favorites are probably Greece, Macedon, and the Seleucid Empire. | ||||
i hate the greeks, They have crap cavelry and they are supposed to make up for this with strong troops, but their hopliets are so so and hard to turn that they don't make up for it... | ||||
Medieval Total War 2 is better.. But for Rome, I really like Greece, the spartans are imba =) | ||||
Can anyone answer this question ? How do i unlock the special scipii ships ? Thanks . | ||||
Not sure what the special ships are, but I'm guessing you'd just build a better dock. | ||||
Upgrade the docks to their maximum level. I don't really know,... I captured the colosus and the Great Lighthouse, maybe that helped,... | ||||
I've got a game mod for rome total war, allows me to play with napoleonic units. :) | ||||
I like the greeks but I want to be macadionia!!!!!! | ||||
Greatest gAME EVER | ||||
go britannia! | ||||
yeah, they have those head hurlers i have read...must be fun...:) | ||||
you get the head hurlers through one of the brit gods i think its brigantia's second religous ground i also like julii and scipii butim not so sure about brutii | ||||
sound iteresting...:) | ||||
seleuds are great. also like egyptians. | ||||
I can win anything heroicly if I have horses or greek hoplities! 200horse (me, roman first mounted unit) vs 2000gaul infantory I won heroic-ly but it took like half an hour just charging and retreating..... | ||||
Bah, I once guarded a bridge with only two spartan formations, a single phalanx formation and two formations of mercenary archers against a huge eastern army, mainly cavalry. I lost only 20 men then, while they lost almost their whole army. And the lack-wit part of it was that when they started retreating, by some bug in the game they started running into my spear-wall again... | ||||
hehehe.... that reminds me of the time i surronded a fort with only a general in in it my reinforcements routed the general who was like 8 star command the general turned around to run for it and within seconds of running in the other direction he ran his horse into a hoplite spear wall(by the way how do you get videos off youtube onto here?) | ||||
Bridge battles? Bah.... | ||||
and about the god question you just need to build temples or sacred places etc...to that god | ||||
ok...will rember that when i buy the game.... | ||||
if you want to get really excited about rome total war go on youtube | ||||
ah those videos? Na...low quality.... | ||||
Okay, boy, here's one for ye. Have you ever survived an attack from a large germanic army with only five early legionary cohorts, a general and an auxilia unit? And I'm not talking about random weak germanic units, but chosen axemen and their best cavalry, forgot their name,... Have you ever beaten a force of outnumbering Carthaginian elephants, golden band and golden band cavalry with republican units? It's damn hard. Have you ever won a historical battle, the one were Carthage ambushes the Republic at the lake? I simply wrote the bridge battle to explain about the retreat bug, lad. | ||||
Historical battles i have wone all who are at the demo..they are easy even on hard.... | ||||
I used to play Rome, lad, but I haven't played in 2 years and I can't now because I have too many exams. ): | ||||
whats with all the lads lol? anywho rome is great fave is carthage, full army of nelefants bunched together thn charge.........................thats about the limit of my expertise :P | ||||
ok And i'm a boy...only 14 years old :) | ||||
I never write in forums of games. Never. | ||||
ah...:( | ||||
why not? | ||||
I just don't. No particular reason,... | ||||
This is a game.... | ||||
I used to play it, I went over to mediveal 2 instead. Rome total war was really a mess, it had some very nice things about it though. The diffrent factions felt really exotic etc. | ||||
I started playing Medieval 2...I like the Medieval era better lol. So much more going on. The best thing is bribing a huge enemy army right as it steps out of a city leaving it undefended.....that's my basic strategy lol. Not really, but I do love doing that ;) | ||||
You wanna know about something i've managed before? I've defeated 5 large egyption armies who were all about 1500 sized all in a row who were attacking a city and my only defenders were a Roman general, 2 mercinary Skirmishers from the deserts, 1 wardogs, 1 Hastati and 1 hoplite mercinary and the hastati and hoplites were already half dead. Which altogether came close to 400 defenders. Every battle was heroic too. | ||||
