vollorix - seems you have mastered the CTD subject, lol.I dont have the patience to look in detail the PC behaviour and reload as you probably quite cleverly suggest.The best I can do is press a Ctrl+S :-P
Well RTW is not compatible with Windows 7x64 at least officially.On the other hand Alexander expansion that IS officially compatible still crashes.So? I just settle with it :-)

I am eagerly anticipating EB2, which has a VERY stable engine.Still the gameplay in my eyes was never up to that of RTW.Call me retro but... :-)

Back to my campaign, updating.I was naive to think a BIG empire like Carthage, would easily let me execute my plots.They bring full stacks out of nowhere each round.Capua grassland has become a pool of blood.They loose, I loose too.EPIC battles.
Poeni army is light and very mobile.At first I used mass heavy infantry and got PWNED.Then I adapted.More cavalry, light infantry and ranged units and there we have a nice match-up.A local unit that impressed me a LOT is Brutii infantry.These guys are rock solid, only lack in speed.

In minor Asia, Pontus finally declared war on me then he hides behind his border, lol.I dont want to harash him but if he doesnt agree to peace I may have to.He already let AS and Ptolemaioi inside his territory while he's on war with them.

On the north things are ...quite.I would say DANGEROUSLY quite.Getai has two full stacks, one in Buridava (capital) and the other in Kallatis.I keep wondering why. :-D
Sauromatai in Crimea don't bother.YET I would say.But peace with those savage barbarians is a good thing now.I am in no position to provoke their wrath.

Guys anyone with an ongoing or recent KH campaign please share strategies or approaches.I enjoy reading ;-)
