Things to Improve

[Yukon Cornelius]

-All you people who complain about realsim are like this you want it, too a point. Make up your damn minds do you want realsim or not.

...

No, I said it was a bad idea and I mean't it. i've mad up my mind and you shall not convince me other wise.

...

You didn't deserve special individual rebuttals for each one.

Realism in a game is not binary. It is not either on or off. It's a matter of degrees. It's like excitement, in the sense that most people want to do things more exciting than watching paint dry but don't necessarily want to sky dive.

...

You seem to have your mind made up about everything. Perhaps a discussion forum is not the place for you.

...

I love your disrespectful attitude. It really makes the .org a better place. No sarcasm here. Nope.

CyanCentaur: well, most of the points you take up are the the reasons why I don't really thing R:TW is as good as it could be. Add paragraph 21: it takes 6 months for an army to perform a march that historical armies pulled off in a week!

Oh, and Lars573: you will find that people respect you more if you aren't acting like some kind of fourth-grade schoolyard bully. It's true.

EDIT: and yes, a full stack of light cavalry beats everything. Actually, my last Carthagian campaign was just like the one described: just stack after stack of round shield cavalry, eating everything thrown at them. At this period, most factions had a very limited supply of horses, and that's one of the reasons why the idea of full stacks of cavalry doesn't make sense. To say that "that's a dumb idea, never mention it again" only proves a point against you, especially since it is very far from a dumb idea.
