Am in 195BC only a few provinces away from victory in a very difficult and challenging VH-VH KH campaign. The best I have ever had, always at the edge of collapsing and loose everything. I thank the team for this. CTD where few and non persistent. Now I have exterminated Macedonia but the script says, exterminate or outlast Macadonia and Epiros. Should I wipe out Epiros as well in order to win? They have 4-5 cities left. What does outlast mean? Thank you for your kind help.:help:

I'm pretty sure the Epeirotes needs to be destroyed, either by you or another faction...

Yea outlast means to destroy that faction.

Btw Vh battle difficulty is not recomended, especially if you meet an elite troup that solos your entire army.

Yes Outlast means that they are destroyed by someone else, in both cases they have to be destroyed.

Oh I see...Ok thank you all.
Dam this is going to be difficult... Total and constant war in 7 fronts with cities far apart from each other...

And Rilder yes, elite enemy units are a nightmare in VH battles. I deal with them from a distance with veteran slingers at the back. Without slingers I would not have gone this far.

Lets see if il manage to win this endless bloodshed.

You can easily overcome VH/VH with micromanagement but it definitely takes away from the game and you can throw historical accuracy out the window when you fill stacks with elites yourself :)

My God !

Gaesatae in VH...a living nightmare, a host of invincible foes.
In the same way, there's this full stack of Thorakitai Agyraispidai who are sent every year..

I never play in very Hard battle difficulty, it doesn't change at all AI strategy.

Good luck :]

Dear god, the only way I could see winning against the AS is to build massive stacks of family members and slingers. Holy bejesus.

Awww, I didn't notice that but thanks for saving the screenie :thumbsup:

... And mounted slingers would be awesome.

I'm not sure if I can think of anything harder than trying to hit something with a sling while riding a horse!
