Bi Fans Look Here! I Have A Question!

[AntiochusIII]

Tying experience/morale bonuses to a province in STW and MTW was annoying, I never liked it. Dooling it out via temples is the way to go.

I rather liked the old system. It is more historically accurate, and, strangely, perhaps a psychological effect, "that" great province of "great +1 exp unit" (which actually isn't that much better from the ordinary ones) really makes me feel proud everytime I capture it. I guess the names of Venice, Constantinople, and Antioch make those provinces naturally attractive, but how can you explain the "attracting" effect this old system had in Shogun, where most people had no clue about which castles were supposed to be great or not, but the effective valour bonus system?

BI truly needs smaller provinces; the hordes wouldn't be half as powerful in the vanilla map; even though I prefer the RTR-style number of provinces myself.

Oh, and great game, CA.

But I suggest you bring back the critically acclaimed Glorious Achievements mode, and some other cool features lost from MTW in transition to the new engine, into your next Total War game, whatever that be.

I second that.

The glorius achievements were real fun, and it made for some pretty fun and challenging games(like frantically trying to capture a province before the time is up).

I also loved the exp bonuses tied to specific regions, though there's something I loved more: units only recruitable in a certain province. It made the game much more "real" to only be able to train for example Bulgarian Brigades in bulgaria, instead of being able to train them all over the place, and it made certain provinces really valuable, even if it wasn't worth anything financially.
