Nice, dude, good job taking the initiative. I'll look around my shots and see what's sitting around.

Just a suggestion though, cropping is your friend. A pic can be great but still look kind of strange because the UI and the minimap are sitting there. I would suggest using Gimp to edit your shots.

[Duguntz]

Welcome, it's my pleasure to open that thread, as it's always nice to see screenshots from others! and thanks for the advise, with GIMP, I didn't figured out how it's work yet, but eee, i posted only 4 pictures in my life on the forum (from wich the 3 above!) so, I still have to learn ;)

Looking foward to see your screenies!

[Arthur, king of the Britons]

Yeah nice of you to take the initiative to start this thread, I thank thee.

Here's mine, with the brave son of Seleukeia alone charging the ranks of the Persian archers:

[Duguntz]

[Subotan]

There are still people who have submitted more than one picture. >:[

[Finn MacCumhail]

I was looking forward for it. Thanks.

Well, I couldn't choose only one pic but I see everyone post whatever number they like. It's good. More impressions.
Sorry but the caption has only one and the first pic

EDIT: if for some reason only one pic might take part in competition, then let it be the first "unequal duel" only.

I've found an alternative title, all thanks goes to:

Generally shirtlessness and nudity solve all problems in EB.

Great, but maybe it would still be better if you take this screenshot from behind that soldier?

[plutoboyz]

This is mine

Dodging an Arrow

[Arthur, king of the Britons]

Great, but maybe it would still be better if you take this screenshot from behind that soldier?

Lol, you know it's quite hard to get 1 soldier per unit in the first place, and I took that screenshot ages ago. Glad you like it.

Cool pic Pobs! What faction did you play as?

What trouble did you have with Gimp?

Another minor suggestion, but if this is a competition, shouldn't everyone be limited to one screenshot? If everyone is posting 5 or 6 shots, pretty soon we're going to have to be choosing between 100+ pics.

[Unintended BM]

I just use paint for mine, takes like a minute and a half.

Also, I agree, everyone should choose one of their pictures posted to enter.

I'll have to get some good pictures during my Iberian conquest.

[Duguntz]

Yeah! I started the thread, but i never participated to any screenshot contest! if someone is used, please, share the rules with us! if we must pick only one pic, it's fine with me! but let's establish a number of rules! ideas?

[SwissBarbar]

Persian wars

[Brennus]

Thats pretty epic looking.

[mlc82]

Big battle between the Sweboz (me) and either the Aedui or Arverni.

[The Celtic Viking]

That's Aedui. Nice picture, too.

Anyway, I will resubmit an old one of mine, because I don't have any other and I think it deserves another shot. (Plus, I'd have to kick Celtic Punk's ass in self defence if I didn't. )

[Ca Putt]

@Arthur, king of the Britons: Now that's what I call a Standard bearer ! I guess you have my vote :)

[A Nerd]

Nice pictures! I prefer 'This is Seleukia' thus far, though I prefer to play with out grass in my campaigns!

[Madoushi]

Cool thread, Duguntz.
Too bad I haven't been able to get screenshots from EB for the life of me.

[Pobs]

madoushi,

just turn off anti-aliasing then 'printscreen' will drop a tga file into the tga folder in your game folder.

hooahguy,

who won ?... well, lets say I was on the side that made the winning side possible.....

Arthur,

I think I was playing the Getai on this particular occasion, but losing in those northern forests is not uncommon in my campaigns so it could be Rome or Lusotani


cheers,


Pobs

[Madoushi]

Pobs, I don't use anti-aliasing, and I've tried Prnt Scrn, Ctrl+Prnt Scrn, Alt+PrntScrn, Shift+Prnt Scrn and every other combonation I could think of. Ctrl+Prnt Scrn works for most games, but I can't take screenshots for the life of me in Total War. :(

[Arthur, king of the Britons]

Press Print scrn and then CTRL ALT Delete. And paste it into paint and save it.

[Madoushi]

Tried that. Every time, it says there's nothing in the clipboard to paste.
