Thread: help me this is important

    Default Re: help me this is important

    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.

    Ah, that was a 1.0 bug. 1.2 should fix it.

    I won with 10 men in MTW. But I though such great heroic last stands such as that were inpossible in RTW. Mabey its because they took out the jedi generals part. Shame, I liked my 20 valor prince. But alas no such luck in RTW, the highest I have ever had is silver level in Rome. Honestly though I don't see how that could have happened, save mabey they were light horsemen who just ran away constantly untill the battle timer went down. But if thats not the case, go and rase a huge army of 4000 men, march them at the heroic ten and smash them into nothingness, mathmatically its impossible for them to win, and they will be surrounded.

    I LOLed. I can guarantee you that I'm not an established member using this username for flaming purposes. I just happen to happen to be a fan of the proper use of the English language, and common sense in battle tactics. I mean, seriously, unless you're fighting 10 general's bodyguards with 200 peasants inflicted with the plague, I find it incredibly hard to believe that you could possibly lose, especially when you have a general and his bodyguards on the battlefield as well.

    I think if you run all the time, avoiding battle, your unit kinda "auto-routs".

    So you can't fool the game by toying with the timer when u'r on defence.

    Not too sure tho.

    He [clayton] later admitted to having not 10 enemies, but 100! This is more understandable. Besides that, everyone makes mistakes occasionally. Even the good people.

    Still easy, 200 Romans v 100 Gauls. Lose that and you suck big time



    If I was smart, I would have a witty punchline in this sig that would make everyone ROTFL.

    Yeah, i read his last post saying 100, but in all others he said 10. So it could be just another "zero" in his last post.

    However, 200 vs 100, then yes quality of troops gets in the equation.

    You should go Alexander and see how much of the known world you could conquer with mercs and that stack.

    On what difficulty level is the game?

    In 1.0 and 1.1 is you played on battle difficulty higher then medium, AI units got attack and morale bonuese.

    .

    In 1.2 they added those same bonuses to player faction too, makin higher level battles not more difficulty, but faster.

    I miss 1.0/1.1 difficulty settings...

    Yeah I know, I'm admit i'm not that great at RTW. MTW is my game. Ahh the days of fighting in multiplayer, the great battles, the whipping the lesser clans as a ronin. Ok ok enough floating back.

    3 waves = 30,000 that's 10,000 / army, but 20*240 (largest size)= 4,800. So the max no. of men/army is 4800

    Btw, having 20 legion.cohorts exp9 in 1 army is a waste of them imho, unless of course you want to have them grouped for fun .
    Sorry, but this line didn't for some reason fit in my previous post

    there were 3 waves. in total 20000 men. there were about 7 armies attacking + the garrison of the besieged city. so it's like this. 2 armies attack me and the garrison joins. i win. and that 3 times.

    also when i say legionares it's like this.

    10 legionaries (late)
    4 archers
    4 cavalry units
    1 praetorian cohort
    1 first cohort

    so not really a waste, all of them had 9 chevs. they were the best out of 5 invasion forces. the rest had between 5-8 chevs units only. the have beaten the shit out of those eggy's. all are captain led to make it more interesting.

    the eggy's had a huge empire (and still have) with about 100 regions.

    Erm....why the hell did he reply to his own post like that? Unless he's a scizophrenic, or Abokasee in disguise, he shouldn't have done that.

    Well he's clayton ballentine and he does many clayton ballentine things like replying to his own post.

    And he lost his edit button, that's something you understand right Mikeus?
