    Default Your favourite EB screenshots

    Here's one of mine - in a bitterly contested Ptolemaioi vs Koinon Hellenon battle:




    I especially like the taxeis hoplite in the centre of the picture, spear lost, sword drawn, who is wading across the bodies of the dead to grapple with the foe.

    I can't see your pic ER.

    here's mine. The cursor shouldn't be there but I like the screen anyway. Cause it really illustrayes the madness a battle would be. just charging into an enemy army knowing you won't make it a live.

    This is my most satisfying screenshot beacuase I had just held off an army that outclassed me 4:1 after a spy had opened the gates.

    Good stuff! Here's some from my recent testing sessions:

    This should put a damper on bribery in this town!


    Something I worked up based on the recent discussion of logistics.

    Fighting my way out of an ambush in the mountains northeast of Baktria:

    Horse archers can be deadly, but not when charging into a hail of arrows!

    Ah! the Generals! they are numerous, but not good for much (especially if they're Languorous)!

    I think you (and your fellow traiters) are my favorite people in EB (Although the scripting people come very close )

    Looks good. However, once this guy grows old (I assume that's what the "freshly recruited" trait means), he will be immobilized.

    Yeah, what the description says about his mobility and the actual effects don't seem to match, in my testing. Not sure what's going on there.

    No, not yet. They'll be in the patch.

    My favorite. (Actually, that might be the best screenshot I have ever seen- and I do mean ever! )

    Notice my sly Epirote captain making a bloody ruin out of Aurelius' shoulder with the tip of his sword. Fun stuff. And yes.. that is a massive force of Samnite mercenaries.

    you can make the flags go away in your preference.txt

    One you can use to make screenshots is fraps. But you might also want to know how to use the moviecam.

    I use Howie's Quick Screen Capture program.. I don't have a link to his webiste though; but I'm pretty sure someone will. You can turn flags and those annoying green arrows off in the Preferences text document in your RTW folder. Just change the line SHOW_BANNERS:TRUE to SHOW_BANNERS:FALSE and for the arrows DISABLE_ARROW_MARKERS:FALSE to DISABLE_ARROW_MARKERS:TRUE. I just cut out the bottom of the screen in Paint; hence the poor quality of the picture.

    That's a nice one, I've never seen the gate like that.

    Here's one from my Yuezhi campaign, whilst not being particularly artistic it was from a particularly satisfying battle - one of my many with Baktria. It shows a Baktrian army under their heir trying to force a river crossing defended by greek mercenaries taking Yuezhi gold.

    I'll spoil these so it won't take so long to load, or take so much space...

    Here's a scenic one to start with, looking down at a Illyrian valley between mountains...

    Here's a battle screen which nicely shows the chaos of battle in antiquity...

    And here is my favorite screenshot, possibly of any game, all-time...

    I don't know if my monitor was screwed up, it was time for me to get a new graphics card, or if it was an in game feature, but those lights from heaven (in the same battle as the previous screenshot) were just stunning...
