Victory with any faction

[Doug-Thompson]

How many people out there have won at least one game each with every one of the factions?

"Won" has many definitions, I admit, but I'm curious about how many "well rounded" players their are, as opposed to narrow-minded specialists like me.

[Ironside]

I've won with all factions exept Sicilians and Hungarians. And thats includes all VI factions. I've played mostly during v1.1 thats why I haven't played with all factions yet.

I'm close but not yet complete. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-wall.gif

Won is mostly GA or 60%, I've played several to 100% but that's not much of an extra challenge if you know how to prevent those massive rebellions.

[gaijinalways]

I'm not a specialist, I play other games concurrently too I have won with the English and the Italian. I have only played with the above two and the turks.

[Seven.the.Hun]

havent won with all, but it would be nice for so much victory...eh, perhaps at some point http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

That I can recall:
English (early,high)
Russians (early)
Turks (early,high,late)
Byz (early)
Sicilian (high)
Spanish (early,high)
Aragonese (high)
HRE (high)
French (high)
Danes (early)
Egyptian (high)
Polish (high)
Hungarians (high)

edit: with VI, every faction except the Welsh and Irish.

[katank]

have so far won with every faction except for the polish in early and also won with russian in high. I tend to go for only 60% or GA wins also and thus don't really take that much time.
The end game becomes a tad tedious when you fight 10 massive battles a turn.
rebellions haven't been much of a problem for me either due to my significant use of agents.

[Wishazu]

Im working on it. playing glorious achievement on expert. so far completed with,
English
Aragonese
Sicilians
Russians

Im currently playing as polish but it isnt going so well http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mecry.gif surrounded by french and hungarians

[ichi]

I played at least one campaign through to victory with everybody but the French, usually hard, early, total domination, but a few also on GA.

I have not played all factions, but I have managed to win with:
Byzantines (early, high, late);
Germans (early, high, late)
Danes (early)
Russians (high, late)
Sicilians (early)
Spanish (early, high)
By winning I mean controlling 60% or 100% of the map, and I'm always playingh on GA. And I have never played Muslim factions.

[Aelwyn]

I've finished 1 campaign through to 60% http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif I just don't have the patience. I'm trying to do it with the Danes right now, but am getting tired of it as I'm at the point where everyone gangs up on me trying to knock me down to about even with them. And I just can't seem to produce enough troops every turn as I have less than 15 provinces...but my income is through the roof and thats why they're all jealous.

[gaijinalways]

Sounds like you need to build more buildings for producing units or try hiring mercs if you can for some big building slash and burn tactics (should be able to afford it if your bank account is high enough).

True, time is a factor, as I said, I play other games too. Right now I am taking a rest from medieval, just finished my Italian early, on expert campaign.

[Senta]

wow, some people love this game much or have a lot of spare time... so far i've only won with Polish, English and Spanish plus Vikings and Welsh in VI...

[The_Emperor]

I have so far managed to win Total Domination (100% of provinces) as the English, Turkish, Almohads, the Byzantines and The Vikings.

With most of the other normal factions I have got around 60% with, except the Polish, Hungarians and Aragonese.

The VI factions are the ones I really need to complete more of (but I guess I prefer the main campaign).

[Satyr]

I am pretty sure I have won with all factions starting in all time periods. This would include the Viking campaigns. I have played lots or the factions many times. Of course, I bought the game the day it came out and haven't really found anything else to keep my entertained for very long. I am now working my way thru all the factions playing Medmod 3.14 starting in High or Late.

I am very grateful for Medmod, it has made the game challenging again. In fact, I have been losing more games than I have been winning.

[kawligia]

I've won with the English twice on Total Domination (I think they are the easiest faction)

I also won 100% with the Vikings, the Scots and the Picts.

I got a 60% with the Italians, the Byzantines, and the Spanish.

[octavian]

i have successfully played most factions, however, i have not completed all of them, cause i go on here, and find a new strategy or something for a faction, so then i start a new game. i also stopped all my very first games that were on easy http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-sick2.gif thank god i did that, waaaay to easy.

man it feels good to be back on the forum, i was off for a couple of days, oh the horror, the horror http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-2thumbsup.gif

[The_678]

I have only beaten it fully with HRE, Byzantines and Danes. Most of the time I just play till I feel I have become a superpower and have a great position to start my takeover of the world, then I stop and start with a new faction. Ex. I play with Spanish till I own everything from Aragon and Navarre to Constantinople and Georgia and have massive trade. At that point I find it is just tedius and I like to start a new game by that time.

[LordChance]

I have by now taken on all fractions with glory goals and probably most with 100% victories...

Hardest are certainly late Aragons...high Russians and probably polish 100% dominon in late (the latest one)

However even on expert the game is not that hard if you got time so archiving victory is a tad to easy...

I mostly play GA, the AI fars more better and it's coerent. Well, treid almost every faction and reached 60% or close, but got bored, so I never finished on 100%.

[Basileus]

I ve managed to win with all factions in early 60% domination and GA, havent played much on high and late era though.

hehe, with med-mod: kick your neighbors out of their home provinces and they are reduced to producing peasants which have become a high-tech unit now :)

[Red Harvest]

I have won with all factions, all on expert, all time periods.

[RZST]

im proud to say i have not finished a single campaign in MTW...uh...well i think im proud >_

[Nowake]

You should be. Playing after 60% is a bore in most 90% cases http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-toff.gif

[Nickpes1805]

Well,I've manage to win with:

Byzantine
English
Mamluks
Turks
Spanish
French
Italians

(Those are the only ones I've tried so far,won with all of them )

I never managed to win playing the Vikings in VI thought I tried twice.I must be doing something wrong http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mecry.gif
