Nice one, ~500 kills out of one company of crossbow militia! I don't think I've ever had a battle where 'militia' anything killed half so many.
:egypt:
Ramses II CP,
FactionHeir is a freak of nature when playing tactical battles.
If he is given even two regiments of cavalry he will usually be able to annihilate nearly twice his number.
He had four or five top line cavalry units here...he could have taken on one of those gold chevron stacks and won in my opinion.
Oh but cavalry I understand, I think we can all do a trick or two there; this is MTWII after all. I admit I usually play on medium unit sizes, but even in battles where the enemy was climbing that hill near Damascus I've never had militia kill like that. I have to confess I always preferred archers to crossbowmen too, before, and I can see from the screenshots kinda what his layout was... I think I learned something today, s'all I'm saying. :laugh4:
:egypt:
I always read FH's battle reports for that very reason...he's a freak and you can learn stuff from freaky people.Quote:

i believe he killed 700 with 2 generals bodyguards
Does that fit in with what you expected Ramses? :beam:Quote:

Keep in mind when I say "freaky" it is with a great deal of respect.
TC, did you move Arnold out of Ragusa to block the bloody sword wiedling merchants? I would expect the AI Venetian's to have a go that's all.Quote:

Yup...just ignore me. I'm reading but not understanding.Quote:

Just to say, Mini Econ and I are boarding the boats to Europe this turn. Players can send IC PMs this turn and get one reply, but then we will be out of communication until we make landfall.
What if I send a boat half way to meet you?Quote:

Peter is not emperor yet and still he behaves as if we were not only that, but chancellor and supreme ruler too :laugh4:
well, einstein ( :laugh4: ), if you remember correctly, elberhard put peter in charge until he returns. until then i can do whatever the @#$%^& i want! plus this is a plan approved by elberhard, so there. mwhahahaa

taking the save
Edit: battle fought and uploaded here: finally http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/kotr1332-5.rar
province pacified and one Danish army killed, although I released nearly 600 prisoners in exchange for a few Chivalry points :beam:
As well as Dieter gaining two command traits and some chivalry ones his bodyguard has gone from 2 bronze chevrons to 1 gold so I'm pretty chuffed.

I added the entry for my character. I'm not sure if I can do much more, having just joined and knowing about most of the war merely from reading the history thread. Would anyone object if I took a crack at the Battle of Bern?Quote:

Back for good. Sorry TC, school's been bothersome... I won't miss next orders.
Ok, I added an entry for the Battle of Bern. I'm not sure if its bad, but it is sorely lacking in pre 1330 information. Hopefully it is a decent outline of the battle and its consequences, but I'm sure it will require quite a few changes from more knowledgable players.
save finally uploaded, sorry for the delay.
its cool
nice battle of bern zim!
I have added the entry for the Battle of the Flemish Crossroads. I hope its satisfactory.
I will pick up the last save and fight the two Austrian battles.
Here is the latest save:

Zagreb
First few minutes was a panic I never seen the AI rush like that but the boys stood their ground. Maybe worth a battle report.
