I thought I was the only person in Wiltshire who has been playing since STW. In fact, I thought I was the only one in Wiltshire who has even heard of the Total War series. ~:cheers:

Oh, and welcome one and all.~:wave:

Hail all new members welcome to the org. ~:wave:

[TheJian]

Well hello all not really new but cant remember my other 3 accounts(new 3-mail)......Must say never liked this site because it was more of a clan not open to new people, but in the last year or so i feel thingh have become better.....One thing i would like to know is.I cant find a start piont on learning to mod RTW like you guys had for MTW or perhaps i have missed it.......

Welcome to the org ~:wave: ~:wave: ~:wave:

[Quietus]

Hello everyone, I joined the .org a couple of days ago and am very happy to have done so.My questions were answered very quickly by the other members and I want to thank all of them for doing so.Now then a little section on my TW preferences:my favourite game is Shogun due to nostalgic reasons,my favourite unit is the battlefield ninja.I haven't played Rome yet,but the improvements on the campaign map seem very nice.I have heard some complaints about the battle map and I can imagine that it must indeed be annoying not to have a speed slider,but that shouldn't take away too much of the fun!Anyway , I love TW and will never stop playing it!
Wo-hoo, I knew it! Well, it is interesting name, no doubt (and very catchy) ~:) Have fun whichever TW game you play ~:cool:

@TheJian, you may want to contact KukriMan (actually KukriKhan) if you are a member already. :charge:

[Adrian II]

@TheJian, you may want to contact KukriMan (actually KukriKhan) if you are a member already. :charge:I like that. Pronounce with a Jamdown accent: Kukree Mahn. Mi naa jesta, mahn! :pimp2:

I like that. Pronounce with a Jamdown accent: Kukree Mahn. Mi naa jesta, mahn! :pimp2:

Rasta! Heehee. ~:cool:

The Jian, I searched for variations on 'Jian' and found nothing similar in our member database. Also looked up any other users with your IP address, and came up blank (other than you, of course); so I guess your older account(s) are blowing in the wind, unless you have any other clues for me. Nevertheless:

Welcome to the Org ~:wave:

[gardibolt]

Hi, I'm new to R:TW and the TW series; I just picked up R:TW since I liked Battle for Middle Earth and a lot of people who play that say this is even better. As a new player, would you recommend that I install the patches? Or just play a campaign with the original version? I was going to install the patches but then read some people saying that it broke diplomacy completely, and that was an element I was looking forward to trying. Were they exaggerating?

[gardibolt]

Another question: I see references to a "full stack" all over. What exactly is that? Yes, I said I was a newbie. ~;)

[Templar Knight]

welcome to the forums Legonaire ~:)

[Drisos]

Welcome legionaire! This is my first (and still only) forum too, you'll get used to it, other members will help you with any problems! :)
Kaiser Christian, Welcome!! I do think you're the first icelander, I've never seen another. But that can also be because many members don't fill in the location seriously ..... GAH! I don't too! Hows that possible?! :0

Welcome gardibolt! enjoy the .org!

[Quietus]

Hail ShakaKahn! Hail Caesar Christian! Hail gardibolt! And Hail Legonaire! :charge: :charge: :charge: :charge: Hail new ORGans! ~:)


Another question: I see references to a "full stack" all over. What exactly is that? Yes, I said I was a newbie. ~;) In TW games, an army is represented by a stack. Each stack in RTW can contain a maximum of 20 units. A unit is a grouped military piece (soldiers or ships). You can combine these units into a stack by left-clicking a unit to select and right-clicking to a destination unit. ~:)

Check if my sig. img. works ...

[gardibolt]

Hm, I'm having some technical difficulties. I played most of the prologue once fine, but when I tried to go back into it, now the screen is jumping all over and the top 1/4 is not readable at all. I'm guessing there's a problem with the refresh rate but I don't see a way to adjust that. Anyone have any ideas? Or should I just uninstall and start over?

[Craterus]

Good Luck with your campaign!

Thank you Craterus, its a shame Britannia also has no elite missile troups either , ~:confused: but i love using its charoits :devilish:
they are fantasic shock units

[Craterus]

I like the, also unique, Head Hurlers. Britain's best missile troop? I think it is.

It's also a shame about the Britons lack of cavalry; they only have chariots.

Maybe, we could take this discussion to the Britannia thread in RTW Guides?

[streety]

Hail Guild,

For I am new member streety. I come from Britannia, as an archaeologist and life-long (yes, for I am old, well, compared to 17 anyway) keen historian, amonst other things. I am a modder, once of Red Baron 3D and Combat Mission, but before that I donned my own armour (yes, made-to-measure, by an armourer - from an old washing machine, I think) and marched into battle against royalist scum (mostly accountants and civil servants from the M25 and M4 corridors). And before computers (yes, I am old indeed) I modified metal soldiers and sent them o'er fields of cloth and hills of cork (well, sometimes matchboxes painted green, but they never knew) to die a thousand times for cardboard towns they'd never heard of........

Anyway, I'm into Pike and Musket stuff really, so you might find me contributing to threads there, and occasionally sticking my oar in on historical matters elsewhere, or otherwise asking the sorts of stupid computer-illiterate questions that people over 30 ask :dizzy2:

[Craterus]

[GonZ]

Lo folks

Having recently de-lurked over at the official forum under the alias "Groucho", I thought I'd do the same over here.

I'm a long time player of computer games in general - since the days of pong in fact.

Loved Shogun the moment I saw it - recognised that the unit artwork was from the "Cry Havoc" Samurai skirmish boardgame.

Medieval was/is awesome.

Rome bothers me but I still love it. I’m playing RTR at the moment and really enjoying it. Fantastic modding imo.

I know that a lot of great contributions have com from the org so as way of introduction I'd just like to say - thanks.

I hope I have something to contribute too.

[Adrian II]

I hope I have something to contribute too.Sounds like you do. Welcome GonZ! :bow:

[Drisos]

A heartfelt welcome from my side too, GonZ!! ~:wave: :bow:

Our 'hosted mods' forum contains lots of mods, especially RTW mods. As you want to contribute to the .org(great idea! :thumbsup:) you can see there which one you like the most.

Greetings, bighairyman ~:) I believe the search function has been disabled. Kukri, help, can you confirm this?

:charge:

That's affirmative, m8, although we constantly experiment with ways to make it work better. So one might "get lucky" using the in-house search on Monday, only to find it disabled again on Tuesday (for example).

The Google Search box, top-right of each page, works better and better over time, as more folks use it to search/query this site. It seems as if the more often Google looks for results, the more content it archives, providing increasingly better/more relevant results as time goes by.

I was just about to wish PHEONIX welcome to the Org, when the page refreshed and I saw that IliaDN had just did the same before me! ~:confused:


Anyway, welcome to the Org PHEONIX! ~:wave: ~:cheers:

Welcome the .org, PHEONIX!! ~:wave: ~:wave: Don't mind about your name, more people(me too ~:)) have weird names and I like yours!! ~:cool: :thumbsup:

[Adrian II]

I'm sorry for your bay day AdrianII, but this is not the way to welcome someone, I think.Dear Drisos, please credit Pheonix with a sense of humour. If he didn't get the joke right away, I bet he did when he saw my reason for editing at the bottom of the page. On second thought, I'll change it to avoid confusion.

Lighten up. ~:cheers:

[Drisos]

OK, Adrian, ~:cheers: I was quite sure that PHEONIX was going to read that correctly. But I just wanted you to change it to make sure it did no harm. You know, I've posted something here once which could've been read wrong too, and because no one responded soon, I'm afraid I might have destroyed his enthusiasm for the following days.

Now I read my own last post, it seems pretty hard too. Sorry for that, and because you've turned your post into something that he couldn't read wrong I'll Edit it. :embarassed:

[Adrian II]

OK, Adrian, ~:cheers: You were quite right to correct me. :bow:

I tend to forget that this being a PG13 site means that some members actually are thirteen years of age -- whereas I am two hundred and fifty nine years old myself -- and that things said in jest may get across as spiteful or unnecessarily rude.

No harm done, right, Pheonix?

Pheonix?... ~:eek:

[Drisos]

whereas I am two hundred and fifty nine years old myself

wow! does time go twice that fast in backroom? wait, but I visit backroom too . . . GAH! my hairs have suddely become grey. . . ~:eek:

This isn't funny, I'm supposed to be 16 years old! ~D Someone has to tell people it's dangerous to be in backroom . . . Oh, and now I finally understand why the mod. team keeps junior members out of there ~D


Pheonix?... ~:eek:

~:eek: a pheonix?? anyone help us! ~:eek:

[Adrian II]

wow! does time go twice that fast in backroom? wait, but I visit backroom too . . . GAH! my hairs have suddely become grey. . . ~:eek:I know, I know. :embarassed:

On my first day in the Backroom I was transported to the war of 1812 -- pheeew!! -- then on to the Iraqi battlefield in 1991 -- whoosh!! -- and finally back to the present -- Slam! Ouch! -- all within a couple of minutes time.
After that I was rudely debriefed by two elderly patrons. :furious3:

It was kinda nice though. ~:cool:

[Grey_Fox]

Hi. I'm Grey, I'm from Ireland and I'm a university student studying science, a mass-murdering baby killer if you're one of the future McDonald's employees (Arts student ~;) )

[Drisos]

Hello Grey! ~:wave:

Nice name!, but a bit hard to spell, so I used 'Grey'. ~:)


All new members try not to go into the backroom. It's dangerous, weird, and very addicting. You've heard what AdrianII told us about his frightning experiences. ~:eek: ~:eek:

[Grey_Fox]

Ah well when I first registered here I used my clan tags, and just can't be bothered to create a new profile :dizzy2: (just call me Grey, or Foxy - most other people do and I kind of like it)

I'm looking at the front and back rooms as it is now, saw some interesting threads and wanted to pollute them with my opinions. God help them ~D

[p_nutter]

Hello guild, I'm p_nutter. ~:wave:

I got a copy of Shogun total War a few months ago. Since then, I have been playing STW a lot, and not sleeping quite as much as I used to.

In real life, I am a computer programmer living in the UK. :computer:

About my username: "p_nutter" is one of the AI daimyo personalities in STW - it's a crazy alliance-breaking monk/nodachi rusher. Although I'm not quite as nutty as the AI nutter ~:)

After about 20 pages, it starts to load more slowly (especially for 56K'ers), and we're getting close to 30 pages.

Don't mind closing the .ORGan pylon Gates, since the incoming are streaming. ~D


Question: anyone have a problem if we re-start this thread? By all means Kukri. ~:cool:

[Craterus]

Grey, I like your sig.

PS: Fine by me if you restart this thread. Will that mean this one gets unpinned? If it does, will I still be able to find it? I might need it for future reference.

[Grey_Fox]

I like the sig too, unfortunately I cannot take credit for it. A person on another forum was using it, so I "borrowd" it and modified the name.

[Craterus]

David vs. Goliath situation there.

Come on the underdog! After all, the might reds were the underdogs last night!!
