Woah... :sweatdrop:
I've been having exam for the past two weeks and with only a couple of days left, the stress got to huge levels so I wanted to relax myself by playing one of my favourite games, MTW. And I decided to do the campaigns. I started English 100 Years and Saladin. Agincourt got soundly defeated, so will redo soon, so for last night at 1am I tried out Horns of Hattin.
I never managed to win it before, so last night I was really determined to win it. And plus I wanted to relax.
I forgot the idea of relax doesn't exist in MTW. In MTW you use your brains. After a lengthy battle of 35 minutes in which I had to deal with those super monsters called Royal Knights, I found myself sweating and super tired. I was so concentrated on the battle that I didn't even notice it turned around 1:40 am and I had to go to bed because 6 hours later I had an exam...
But still, that was some great entertainment. The most challenging battle I ever had, and by the time I used my infantry the enemy infantry was almost wiped out and only the Royal Knights posed any threat whatsoever. Those Mamluk Horse Archers wreaked havoc, and I had to use hit and run at least 20 times to take out most of the infantry and most of the Templar Knights who were the ones always following them. :knight:
Bottom line, I'm looking forward to Acre. But for those who want to use some tactics, skip the graphics, they're not that important, and think about the gameplay. Horns of Hattin is really one amazing battle. :yes:
