total sleep deprivation

[dude2710]

Hi there
I'm, Dude2710 and I'm an addict.
I don't know that I'll contribute much as I'm learning how to play M2TW, but I do know I am not sleeping enough anymore. ever. like argh! why is this game so addictive?
I have a ton of really weird/stupid/sleepdeprived questions, and don't even know where to start.
Like, when I watch the AI play it's turn, their diplomats often reach out (bow) to my castles, which looks like they are going to offer something, but then they don't... is there a bug or does the AI just change it's mind?
or lie when I line up my troops on the field, and save them to a number group, I can't change the formation...
anyways, exploring the vaults of this incredible community and hoping one day to be able to contribute something to them...

Live long a conquer!

dude...2710! Welcome to the Org.

If M2TW is what ails you, then you will want to head on over the M2TW forums. There you will find forums for single player, multiplayer, guides and mods. Since you aren't sleeping, you should have plenty time to ask your questions or share your tales of conquest.

Welcome @dude2710

It's been a while since I played M2:TW, but if I'm not mistaken, if you see diplomats bowing, but no scroll is popping up, then they are trying to bribe the settlement or the character, but failed at it.

Indeed, you can't change the formation, but you can still move units seperately from the group.

That's correct. And yes, their princesses will also do this, even when there are no generals to be "bribed." I think that they can even bribe off a city...even though mine cannot.
