You guys liked the battles?
i just tried a couple of them, carrhae, the one with the luso and the one between ceasar and pharnakes, they are great! love the info on the battles, very interesting read, and the battles themselves are great, i lost at carrhae and disgraced my poor cataphractsOriginally Posted by Eduorius
and very interesting to see what units you have used and how many of each, to make up a historical army, good reference for the campaign. my favorite battle was the one between ceasar and pharnakes, sorry can´t remember the name, when those chariots charged right through my galatians i got quite a scare
Now i gotta go back and try the other ones, im really excited to try Telamon
thanks for taking your time to make them!
I am happy to read this. This was one of my main goals.Originally Posted by ombudsman
Τhe level of Commitment Eduorius has shown is above and beyond. I want to publicly commend him for it!
Thank you Ed, and may you do a lot more of those battles, I know how time consuming they are!
You like EB? Buy CA games.
Well you and the other historians helped a LOT too. Pyrrhus has the most accurate army for Ausculum thanks to your research and thanks to that battle we added like 4 more units missing in EB and the Epirus rosterOriginally Posted by keravnos

Played ausculum with both sides, I won both time but playing with rome at a pretty steep pyrrhic victory. Is there something up with the historical battle scripting because in a couple of cases I attacked AI cavalry without them turning around and fighting just slowly mowed them down from behind and they didn't even swing a sword.

Yeah I see your point. When we turn off the AI (which we do in order to get unit x moving towards a sensible location instead of certain death straight away) the problem that arises is that, basically, we just shut down all forms of response from the PC to your movements. I don't see how we can fix that, without re-enabling the AI, though.Originally Posted by Sir Edward

YOU LOST AT CARRHAE? you los at at carrhae? all you need to do is kill Crassus' son-don't tell me you tried breaking through the square? (I won when I killed the son-then killed the father as a bonus-though you don't want to know how...Originally Posted by ombudsman
well good luck at Telamon!!
and them chariots were scary indeed-and the enemy attack was just this big human wave coming-took 20 minutes hard fighting to break them took 26% casualties (miraculously only 1 unit cracked-equites Gallorum-caught too early by asiatikoi hippeis. the other routed the other asiatikoi and hit the enemy in the back at the entrenchments-ending the fight there)
play Kynoskephalai as a roman for real challenge-that was friggin scary, almost lost the battle at one point (thank god for the Elephantes)
Areios is still fun as ever, have replayed Ebhernis (yet to win it anyhow)

Having only tried 2 battles (the Luso one and Ausculum) I have to say that so far they are great, especially the descriptions and the placing of the troops to start with. Are you still planning to make the series of battles based on the campaigns of Antiochus the great that were previewed? Although the 1.1 ones are more than enough to be going on with!

Carrhae is more challenging when using Publius, since it ends if he gets killed.
I am glad people liked Zela, even tough I didnt spend that much time doing the battle.
