So if you had to pick one faction from vanilla MTWII that you thought had no chance of taking over the world, which one would it be?

This is from the sack of Samarqand in Broken Crescent. There are about 40 elephants in the gate area. I was in a hurry to crush the Kwaz so I could take the Mongols head on. When you're in a hurry, send in the elephants!

The great Polish navy will be feared! ... by some fishermen in a pond near Novgorod.:embarassed:
I'm guessing the AI hired some galley there.
And on a side note, there's been a cool little mini-development in this game. Notice the little rebel army near Helsinki? That is in fact a very nice army of veteran crusaders, composed mostly of Mercenary Spearmen, Crusader Knights, and Mercenary Frankish Knights. It's managed to hold Helsinki for almost the entire game, hence the fact it is a completely undeveloped backwater with only a damaged Motte and Bailey with no other buildings for a settlement.
So my campaign has basically developed a rogue crusader faction, not too far off from where the Teutonic Knights historically fought.:2thumbsup:
Why exactly it is there I have no idea, since the only Crusades I have noticed have been on Antioch and Tunis.:shrug:
Yeah! I'm so proud of those rebels... The Frankish knights is probably a typo, should be Finnish knights :bow:Quote:

Not really a screen, but perhaps amusing.
My girlfriend made this for me in her sowing circle ;) It's awaiting a frame. Since she can only hear the sounds from the game, she thinks the Imams (and everyone else for that matter) are pretty lazy, they have to rest all the time! We continue tomorrow mighty sultan!

Interestingly enough, the majority of the visual bugs I encountered were in the French version of the game. Later I switched to the English version and the frequency reduced quite a lot. Maybe I'll post some other screenshots, at one point I was constantly pressing the printscreen button during French version campaigns... :beam:

Commentator#2: ... Well, more on that there have been reported cases where one side accidentally got their fuse a'light. The loud explosion that arise are a spectacular sight to behold. An amusement to the troops on both sides, and embarassment to their general. Those caught attempting to so while their general does speech pre-battle, end up trampled under their own general's horse.

(Commentator#2 stares at his partner before saying,)
Commentator#2: Yes. Obviously...

The cliff was totally unscaleable in mine. Really, You couldnt get up there. At all.
I spent five minutes having my guys run around looking for a way up before I decided to retreat, only to find out that there was cliff ledge behind me too.
Basically the battle had me stuck on a little shelf. Fortunately I saved prior to the battle out of habit and autoresolved it. Slightly annoying since I took about fifty casualties (which was about fourty more than the two units of huscarls could've inflicted otherwise >_>) from the resolve.
i hav an awesome pick to show, but how can i upload it here...?
Use a free imageuploading site and post the link here. Thumbnail is usually better to reduce load times.
An FYI session here. For any members interested to know.Quote:

Hows this for precision shooting.

During a seige at Bordeaux, my Catapault scored the goal of a lifetime, straight through the opened Gateway. Funny thing was, the flaming missle went straight over the French troops' heads in the gateway and landed clear in the courtyard hitting nothing but dirt.
I had the game paused, so i took another picture to show how far away the catapault was to make the shot (about max distance roughly).
https://i248.photobucket.com/albums/...0898-GOAL2.jpg
Pretty damn good I think.
Thats a hell of a shot!
OMGWTFBBQ !!!!
GOAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I saw the glitter and had to investigate

How much would they cost in upkeep?
Can you make those pictures bigger?
I probably could, if I knew what I was doing.
Well, I think we would have won the world cup back then if we can score that with catapults.Quote:

Well thats the best excuse I can come up with for a graphics glitch.
I am a fairly large fan of horse archers. Well, ok, I'm obsessed with them, and play horse archer factions almost exclusively.

This is a custom battle I played that for some reason was in the middle of the sea. All the infantry drowned and none of the cavalry could move. It ended in a draw.
"Hmm.. something is wrong in here?!"
