Our brave generals have massacred two strong byzantic forces in bloody battles and as news of a whole region being taken, all of Constantinople trembles in fear of what our mighty sultan is about to accomplish. Sadly our men could not be contained and many innocents died in retribution for the occupation of Sparta

Armies buckle under our arrows and are trampled under our horses, yet they keep coming! :knight:
But soon, our Eastern armies will reap rightful vengeance upon the rulers of the Byzantine Empire.

French are up

You are giving the enemy team valuable information that you are grabbing lands from the AI ERE. You are not required to post your victories vs. the AI, only vs. the human players and that's done in good practice to remind people that they can't move their armies since you defeated them this turn.

Don't worry myth, I know everything he is doing there anyway. :) I also know that the crusaders have already captured Athens for example.

Of course, this sin't exactly great, but at least I know

And as a real american hero would say, "knowing is half the battle!"

That's not exactly good news for sure.

Mithridate, why did you post your OWN save? XD

Thats an excellent question, next question!

Heres the save:

Most of what i do is pretty obvious, but as you say there's no need to shove it in ur faces :)

Although I take great pleasure in doing so... But ill keep it to myself in the future.
Its a shame though, looking forward to when im participating in a more RP oriented game.

It's not against the rules and RPing is strongly encouraged in the TR and in this game. Just be careful. I for one did not know how far you had progressed into AI ERE territory. Otherwise, do it by all means.

I've enjoyed reading your little write ups mithridate,

One thing I have done in the past is to comment on what I have accomplished in a turn, while omitting the most juicy elements. This lets people think they know what you are doing, while you have some nice secret surprise getting ready.

I kinda have not progressed at all into their lands^^ The player before me got invaded and lost Sparta, and the Byzantines are really throwing their all at me. Daisy near overwhelmed me combined with some unfortunate rebel armies.

Once the east is united though, we will show those fools :deal:

Ah, the AI money script and free stacks script is finally kicking in. Good luck with the ERE :)

Moors up.

Forgot to build siege equipment last turn... :thumbsdown:

I need a little extra time. Should have this up within 8 hours.

You have 48 by default so no extra time needed :yes:

Thanks, but I did want to warn about my slowness. It's about 54 hours since save was posted. Time flies when you having fun.Leon up

Interesting

i sent a mail just checked the logs. it been 4 days now someone from our team subbing

Yeah but two of these were a weekend so I didn't want to immediately jump against the player. Subbing is fine now.

you're too easy going! I don't give people weekends off :whip:

You know what, sometimes stuff just happens :yes: I was planning on making the Britannia image last night, but something unexpectedly good came up! Anyway, I'd rather people play their own turns, because the more a nation gets subbed, the better coordinated that team becomes. I should know, getting to sub Norway in the last Britannia game twice in a row in the most crucial moment gave me a significant edge.

This is true - judgement is good, based on knowledge of what people are like. For example I have learned not to pester Zim (:beam:)

but games also die if they don't keep moving...

I did the save way back, but I forgot to put it up, sry :sweatdrop:. I thought I already put it, I must have been dreaming :dizzy2:

Seljuks!
I hope loosecannon doesn't have ridiculous battle ability, but I think 2 stacks should be more than a match for a weak half stack of mostly archers.
https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/local...id=205&id=9742

The AI gets great bonuses on the battle map. Enemy peasant archers take out Miles cavalry like they're toy soldiers. If you have quality units he won't be able to do anything without sufficient cavalry archers/light cav/GB units.

Seljuks subbed by request. France up

Isparta has been retaken, and another Byzantic army falls under our merciless charges and hails of arrows. The people rejoice as our eastern army joins the push against Constantinople, but the byzantics are relentless and seem to number as the stars.

Yeah. The Moors have a ton of troops and a good defensive position, this game is far from a stomp on either side.

Well I can honestly say I am quite nervous about your coming onslaught, I just hope my allies can crush the Moors in time to save me.

Constantinople burns! Our brave men have taken the city, but the Scolarii heavy cavalry inflicted serious casualties as they fought like the djinn of the deserts and our brave general Mehmet fell to their onslaught.

Our men prepares for the approach of Two fresh armies moves towards us, while we only have a quarter of that.

perhaps our ally in the south, or the awaited eastern army will come and save the day? Only time will tell.

France up

GO, AI ROMANS! :charge:

Seriously, their Heavy cav needs a nerf xD They can get them from turn one and regular knights are like butter against them, It took 6 FM entire bodyguard to melee down one and a half of their heavys. Nearly no bodyguards survived, and one general fell. This despite three of my Turkish horse archers spending ALL their arrows killing 15 men total before engaging.

Btw two lone HC killed an entire HA unit alone, they died against my heavy cav mercs taking 15 of em down with em!

It was beastly!

Scholarii and ERE bodyguards are terminators on crack when the AI leads them in battle. I've had 3 ERE generals wipe out 2000 Urban Spear Milita (the Italian variant, armour upgrades and all). They massacred them when the spears ENCIRCLED them in the town square...

If you go and play the ERE of course, they won't be that broken, but still pretty good. The AI gets them now since this game is RR off, however they can only be produced in Constantinople, so as long as you keep it, they won't make more. Though the scripts may spawn some. They can spawn generals at least, and those are worse as I said.

yea i know, the annoying thing for Venice is not having any javelin units. And Urbans are bad imho since they have only 1 attack, normal spears have 2 and that makes all the difference when fighting cav.

javelins does not care if theyre tanks on steroids, it gives it to their faces anyway :D

And can someone kill the damn pope already? >.<..

Moors.

If LooseCanon can't play his turn in two days (he dropped one game due to time issues) I'll ask one of you guys to sub him.

I'm just taking some time on these complicated turns:laugh4: Note: I do not like the new way you access smilies here leon up

I can do it, if so PM me the save :)

if something unfortunately happens to my Moors. :laugh4: :rolleyes: I can take over the Kwazzies permanently. I see our teammate hasn't been on in 12 days. Did he say anything to anybody?

Mithridate can sub them this turn. Give him a cleared password save.

I will, I simply wasn't on last night.
