Hi all!

In the last months I noticed with pleasure how the multiplayer environment of EB has started to live again. Some players come back and some others join for the first time: the activity is encouraging, and team battles are again being fought.

However, of course there aren't as many players as in the golden days: this means a slower increase in ability and almost no possibility of relying on the experience of old experts. For this reason, I felt there was a need to introduce something new, and so Europa Barbarorum Multiplayer (https://europabarbarorummultiplayer.blogspot.com/), aka a blog for EB MP, was born.

I copypaste from my introduction.


Nowadays the resources for knowing how to play and getting a good grip on the subtle and hidden mechanisms of the game are scattered on different websites: the Org, Total War Center, EB Multiplayer. My purpose would be to guarantee to each visitor a complete experience. Other than the possibility to find installation files for EB, the updates on the blog will also lead to faction-oriented guides and articles about tactics; another important feature will be a collection of replays with a related commentary, so that one can also take a first-hand look at different battles. There is a large number of possibilities to explore and exploit: I hope this approach can be helpful for every kind of player.


I already posted two articles, one about guard mode (basing the discussion on a thread here on the Org) and one about the differences between large and huge scale: more are coming in the future. The same for the replays: there are already some, and more are going to be uploaded soon.

Furthermore, Aeneas/Vlixes/Quetzalcoatl recently started uploading commentaries to battles on his YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/fronesis7). If you're interested, go and check them out: there's plenty to learn from his solid commentaries. And, just like I said for the blog, more content is coming.

If you're interested in joining us online to enjoy this 10+ years old, but still thrilling and wonderful, game be sure to be enlisted in the Steam group (https://steamcommunity.com/groups/ebwas). We can't stress enough how the most important part of the game is the community behind it, and if you'd like to be part of it you're more than welcome.

Cheers!
