Eburom

I have heard that if you capture Eburome the city of the boii it will mess something up is this true and if so what happens?

Nothing at all. When you seige it though they will spawn HUGE AI stacks. Unfortunately if you try and wait out the siege the stacks keep spawning.

The city that you shouldn't take is actually the bottom left in the Sahara. I forget the name, its Terhazza or somehting similar. You can only take it by move cheating an army though....I think.

okay i knew about terhazza.you do know that this wil only encourage me to siege it out to the end

then you better have a nice economy to recruit replacements and be prepared for some very messy batles cause for every turn you are sieging it you have a new army coming at your throat

On medium it's not too impossible, you just need a spy in their city that opens the gate so you can capture Eburonum in one turn, that way you can fight the enemy at your own pace. Better bring 2-3 fullstacks tho^^

nope i play on vh/m

I don't care to mess around. I siege one turn, fight the reinforcements then cheat win assault the next turn. The losses normally make up for about what i would have lost anyway and it is about 40 minutes quicker than doing it the long way. more fun as well.

I meant medium battles.

Haha. Forever the bane of belgians. No one tribe managed to expand and dominate because they were too powerful. =)

EB rocks, if you keep up the Belgae bashing I am going to have to insist you post a picture showing you conquering the Belgic lands.

@Blxz: lol!

**Moros** · 07-14-2012, 17:05

The Belgian has arrived. Now who dares bashing me?

**Memnon** · 07-14-2012, 17:26

Not to de-rail the thread, but I've always had a problem with how the belgae swordsmen are represented in EB. They have a good armor rating (for a barbarian unit) but absolutely no armor. Not even a shirt! Is the helm really worth all of that armor value?
