I was just wondering what other units they could have put into the game like macemen or battleaxers and stuff like that.

Is lithuinian calvary better than Fuedal Sergeants on horseback?

Whats a spam thread?

Well ... I wasnt intentioanally spamming this thread but it seems I have turned it into one. Spam is useless posting ... which I am proficeint at ...

For example ...

LIBLO LIBAL LO TIMMY TIM MAY! WOuld be spam ...

Or a .org favorite GAH! THough I dont get that one ... Maybe that was something from STW (never palyed the game)

LIGHTING BOLT LIGHTNING BOLT is a really funny spam for those that get it ...

Anyway , it seems this thread has been taken off the original topic that it was intended to discuss. SO I digress ....

No I cant think of any units that I would like to see added to the game ... though there are units I would like to see improved ... such as the hashishin ... can anyone think of a more useless unit?

Bulgarian Brigans ... does anyone use these guys? I mean it take so long to get to them (high on the tech ladder) that pav Arbs are available at the same level ... I never ussed the Brigands ... are they worth it?

not locked! not not not!

uh, I'd like to see.... horse archers that shoot while moving...

and...

uh, oversized peasant units to properly create the mob that they were... (since you can't have more than 16 units)..

none of those really fit, but I try to do what I can to keep soly calm.

Papa ... if u are serious about the oversized peasents just edit the unit size. As far as the shooting while moving horse archers yea ... but only available for some provinces where such horseman ship was known. Like the Soux ... huh?

native americans?

oh and I'm afraid of modding stuff, or too lazy too.

Maybe I should though, huge armies of peasants would be fun.

Its fun in the custom battle to get 2 high valour gothic knights against 2 armys full of peasents and only kill 100 while the rest flee.

Bulgarian Brigands are about the same as Trebizond Archers ... so atm they are not worth it.

I´am going to change them a little in my MOD ... will give them a Longbow (I hate that there is only 1 Unit with Longbows.) and change their required Building to Bowyer3 instead of Bowyer4.

Boondock Saint
10-28-2002, 04:36
Jaret thanks for the heads up and good idea about changing them to LB but even with that they still seem outdated even by bowyer3 ... maybe bowyer2?

It's not the size of the army that matters. It's how you use it.

I am using a single bulgar brigands unit as mercs in my current campaign, but other than that I'd say their outdated...

The problem is, I think, that the only missle units that are really effective are arbalests. In the real medieval times the bow didn't get outclassed as easily I think, hence the variety of bow units.

New siege units - Rams and those tall moving sige towers troops used to get over castle walls - those would be very sweet.

Papa Bear!
10-28-2002, 09:18
oh yea, siege towers.... that would be stunning!

Anybody play lords of the realm 2? (I'm sure stronghold included siege towers, but I just refuse to play multiple medieval period games simultaneously)...

Those siege towers were so much fun... set em up, put em at the walls and lower their bridge while rushing your "MACEMEN FOWARD!"

ya, that was good.

Papa if the expansion doesnt have those it will be a failure in my eyes no matter what! You know the interesting thing is that MTW could dominate the Medieval games market by making siges really cool - its 3D views are much better than 2D views in stronghold. What about water ringing the castle - what were those called? Moats? What about siege earthworks for the siegers to hide behind? All these imrprovements arnt asking too much and would make MTW untouched compared to any other Medieval game.
