Can clayton still post?

Back to the subject: Did you mod the game? 10 swords men can do alot of damage if they have 15 hit points and 45 attack

Well, ok, 10 vs 200 seems very strange to me. Unless the 200 were peasents, but he does say it was a variety of troop types. Even if they were just peasents, the general could take them out.

So, since the troop types can't have that much of an effect (let's not consider lvl 9 +weap+armour chosen swords) my guess is that you were assaulting a town, on auto calc.

Is that it?

I don't think that it's possible to lose a 200vs10 battle, unless, of course, you were the 10.

Unless he's fighting against the Army Rangers or something.

The only way that could be possible is if it was a 10 star family father or something weird like that since sometimes they've been known to do that.

Maybe it had something to do with battle difficulty.

Maybe he was Kiano Reeves or something.

BTW- You're not helping by saying "... but I still lost." Making it blue just makes you look more like a annoying loser, bud. If you don't give a detailed account, then no one can help you, pretend its story time if it helps.

I believe the only way could be that Clayton is nothing more than a troll, and that Mikeus should be restored to his previous level. Although it's fruitless to harass a troll, it should not be deemed wrong, imho.

Is that supposed to be humorous? because it's not. I could just as easily call you the same thing as your post serves no purpose to the thread, but it does insult an .org member and asks that Mikeus be given member status again. Both of which have nothing to do with the thread, therefore rending your post useless. Considering Mikeus and Clayton's past, saying what you did could be considered a big jab at clayton.

who is the troll supposed to be again? (just to clarify)

Such is life........
As long as you allow Clayton to post here, things will likely never improve!
Lets face it, he really does not seem to be getting the message. While some, and I stress "SOME" of his posts may have merit, the majority just seem like a strangled cry for attention. I've lost count of the times he has been asked to collaborate all his questions then post in a single post. Perhaps not the best solution to the problem, but certainly the least antagonising as far as those folks whom he rubs the wrong way are concerned.

I say reinstate him and raise the warning level to 10 and run a book on how long it takes him to reach it.
Go Clayton go!

I am sorry if I offended you Monk. My post was not intended to be humorous. I thought more of it like a voice of reason, or something like that. I have played enough of RTW to see the unreasonable loss of 200 romans lead by a 10 star general vs 10 gallic swordsmen. Neither do I judge Clayton just because of this single thread. But I do have a quite good ability of seeing patterns, if you get my point?

Anyway, I'll stop this immediately, now that I have got your point.

Blessings

i play Rome Total War almost every day so how can i lose to 10 men!

Funny, once I was laying seige to Pergamun with a full stack Brutii army, but ran out of ammo (with my onagers), and since I didn't have any ladders or towers etc, and time was talking ages to run down, i decided to withdraw. I got a close defeat, i.e. only lost 5 men or so to some archers, but on the Campaign map, my entire full stack literally disappeared.

Why? I only withdrew. I didn't disband the entire unit.
