Finnaly, I found the merged thread.
And I though they all got "deleted".
BUG-FIXER, an unofficial patch for both Rome: Total War and its expansion pack
To sum up all the arguments that the "warrior priest are real"
it would be very hard to do that. There is no source that says the romans didnt use aliens as archers, but I am sure there are also none that say they did.prove they didnt use clubs
sure if they were going to fight, which some did, they would probably use clubs, but they didnt fightclubs are cheaper than knives
The pope talked to atilla, but even this meeting is probably myth.the pope and bishops beat attilla
Not warrior priests, but support priests that are behind the lines (like genral not some fictive red line), if player is smart, boosting morale before, and at the beggining of the battle.Originally Posted by King of Atlantis

Seriusly, the way it is implemented, you would not fight with these units. They carry weapons just in case that battles lines get breached.

yah, but how smart do you think the AI is.Not warrior priests, but support priests that are behind the lines (like genral not some fictive red line), if player is smart, boosting morale before, and at the beggining of the battle.
Again, it is impossible to prove something didnt happen, i cant prove romans werent really from mars cause not source will say "the Romans were not from MArs"Proof?

That means it up for you to prove that priest carried weapons with them on average.
Preist came in using all their might carrying some huge cross.
Well, that's the question, how CA imporved AI?Originally Posted by King of Atlantis
There was the same problem with Screeching woman.
Or maybe AI would realize that poor attack/defense units shodul stay back?
Actually, that's more unrealistic.Originally Posted by King of Atlantis
Bunch of priests all carring big heavy crosses. Get tired up pretty quckly.
On the other hand when having group of priests, one elder, several apprentices, you could see one carring big cross and several other varius cargo. That's more realistic. And club is peasant weapon, also apropriate for emergency.
P.S.
Of course, we are talking about priests that accompanied army, not priests in general.

Give one referance that preist in the army routinally carried around big clubs and then i might believe this isnt all a bunch of B.S.
Speaking out of a historical perspective shouldn't Romans be allowed to build as many temples to as many gods as they want in their cities?
Shouldn't there be two civil wars, one won by Sulla, one by Caeser?
Since this is a thread about Catholic Priests did you guys know that a few days ago an adoption agency recieving federal funds is banning Catholics from adopting kids?
It seems like typical bigotry to me, I mean what do they have against catholics adopting kids?
