Hi Judge
I've yet to take a crack at the harder settings so my I'd say my Generals are still wearing 'L' plates. I've only been able to get onto the lobby since installing 1.2 last week but each time I've gone in there's been no one there. Is this normal or am I missing somthing?

In R:TW/M2:TW, the cheat console is, sometimes, the ¬` key which is directly below the escape key on your keyboard. Hope this helps, cheers!

Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys and Girls! And camels! Let me introduce... ME! :jester: Greetings from Finland!

I have already posted some posts in the m2tw section before finding this thread.
Im a young student (who does not like studies). I'm interested in music (I play guitar), woodcrafting (I make things from wood), smithing (I'd love to make things from iron and steel too, it's just rather hard) and of course history (I play M2:TW). I guess that's pretty much everything. Or at least something. And I like cavalry. Did I mention I can ride, too? And I like this smiley :bow: ...And the others too.

It seems I'm not allowed to edit spelling errors from my posts? I can't find the "Edit this message" button...

KidFury
05-21-2007, 22:31
Hello all,

Though my name is KidFury, it is somewhat misleading as I am a 39 year old mechanical engineer but I have used this name in just about every Forum since 1997 so I am sort of attached to it.

I thought of changing it to KidFurius or something like that to keep with Rome theme but then I realised that since none of you know me yet, you would not get the point...


Anyhow, I have just completed my first Julii campaign in RTW 1.5. I have been a gamer for ever but I was more into the RTS side during the time Shogun came out. I was heavy into starcraft when my brother-in-law showed me Shogun Total War. Though I was flabbergasted by the RTS side (graphics were real good at the time) I was less than enthralled by the whole turn based gameplay. When my B-I-L told me that while the RTS battles were great looking that he never actually bothered playing them (auto-resolve) well I lost interest in it faster than a unit of peasants routs after a game of catch-the-onager-ball.

Fast foward 7 years and here I am married with a 10 month old baby girl. I have recently replaced my old computer (which could play starcraft but not shogun) and I was looking to buy Battle for middle earth 2 which I had heard EB games had a used copy of. I had gone through warcraft 3 and found it underwhelming and I had no time (those of you who are parents know this) to get into the whole online gaming gig with it. I have what is virtually a PhD degree in starcraft and there is no way I saw myself playing online while Ms. Fury needs help with Baby Fury.

So here I am at EB games ready to pick up yet another RTS to get my strategy fix when I see in the used section a big box that says "total war eras" on the side. I pick it up and I realize that what I have in my hands is the entire series from Shogun to Alexander. I had not kept up on the total war series but I knew right away I needed to get this. I knew i needed a slower paced game to meet the demands of my household but I had never liked civilisation and caesar and those games. This, I thought, would be the perfect compromise.

And so it has, I finished my first campaign at Easy/easy because I was afraid of the complexity of the campaign game but now that it is over I am ready for a hard/medium one probably with the brutii cuz I love the romans (like I used to love the Terrans at SC).

Lurking here has been very helpful in satisfying the voracious curiosity I have when I am into a game. And I look forward to contributing some strategies and tips myself.

cheers,

KidFury

Well, I myself used to prefer to play 'catholic-style' with a strong line of (heavy) infantry protecting the archers and a few units of cavalry on the flanks.

Thanks to Dough Thompson's and Sinan's enthusiasm I'm slightly getting converted into the 'cavalry type' as well. Nothing feels better than to surround those petty, slow catholics with my horse archers, trying to get as much volleys into their rear and flanks for maximum effect.

Yeeha! Cavalry FTW :charge:

Hi, I'm Michel (kind of deductable from my screenname) and fairly new to the forums. Actually, this is my first post, so Hello everyone!

I'm from Holland, and I got into the TW series by RTW. After that, M2TW seemed like a logical buy, and so far it has not disappointed me (much).


I hope I can be a contribution to the forums!

Cheers!

Welcome MichelRensen! Welkom per Org! That's supposed to be "Welcome to the Org!" in Dutch...

MichelRensen
06-06-2007, 13:41
If I would have to give you a good translation of 'Welcome to the Org', it would be 'welkom bij de Org', instead or using the word 'per'. :)

But thanks! :beam:

Warmaster Horus

Ah, thank you! I'm a language kind of guy, and I'm going to try to learn Dutch, but for now my level is mediocre...

MichelRensen
06-06-2007, 14:16
I wish you the best of luck! Dutch isn't too hard to learn (from my point of view, anyway :p ), it's just that you don't have a lot of reference. There aren't that many Dutch films out and about, for example.

Ik wens je veel geluk! Nederlands is niet zo moeilijk te leren (vanuit mijn ogen gezien dan :p ), je hebt alleen niet zo veel referenties. Er zijn bijvoorbeeld niet zo veel Nederlandse films in het buitenland.

Translated that for you! ^^

Hi people!
I'm Joaquim from Portugal.
I started with Total War with old "Shogun" and am a fan since. "Rome total realism" made me a fan of good mods, too.
Hope to make good friends and to learn something about modding in MTW along the way.

The name's Mile, and I'm from Serbia... I've been playing Total War since MTW, and the real reason I've fallen in love with the series is the abundance of mods, especially 'cause some of those actually include my country, that CA seems to have all but forgotten about in M2... Not that I'm not havin' a blast with the Danes, they're cool...

I've been a lurker for a few years now. Found the Org when I got my MTW Battle Collection and started looking for some fansites. Great guides and discussions to be had here! Lots of funny people too. Decided I should register after seeing all the stuff in the MTW2 forums(Got MTW2 for Christmas). I hope to be able to contribute in some small way to these hallowed boards of knowledge, wisdom, and other fun stuff like that.

Hello board, just wanted to introduce myself. Been lurking for about a year after finding this site. Found the site by checking out frogbeast's excellent MTW unit guide which was linked on MTW's article on wikipedia. Been interested in the totalwar series since STW. Got into that because I recognized that it was based on the old bushido blade board game (now its called samurai swords). Never played the board game but I remember it from the little catalog inserts in my Axis&Allies games(big fan). Got into MTW and VI when someone I knew got a computer fast enough to play it. Never played RTW because once I got a computer fast enough to play it, MTW2 came out. Been hooked on MTW2 since.

As for the other stuff, I'm working on my Master's in history. Not medieval or classic but mainly 18th and 19th century British empire. I stuck around the board because I am impressed at the development of the community here and have found the guides you all have worked on the be quite helpful. Figured it was time to come out and play so hope you've enjoyed my encyclopedic hello post.

^_^

Salve:

I am new to EB. Just started playing it after playing RTR (both gold and platinum editions) for two years. When I tried the EB mod, I was immediately impressed. The game just has a much more authenic feel to it.
I think it's the combination of the graphics, music, Latin voiceovers, etc.
No more RTR for me!

Thanks for a great mod.

Valete!

Hi and welcome Drogba26,
May I ask if you have installed the latest patch for M2:TW. I believe that it fixes a nasty bug with shields which causes them to provide defense penalties rather than bonuses. You can find the almighty Patch 1.2, which fixes this game breaking bug, here (http://www.strategyinformer.com/pc/medieval2totalwar/patch/13869.html). Sadly it's huge, especially for those on slow Internet connections, although common community opinion is that it's worth it. Hope this helps you, cheers!
