How to make a faction horde and how to make your own unique horde

[Dol Guldur]

I thought there was a tutorial on this already - or has it got lost in the pits of the ORG or TWC? ;)

Don't think there was tutorial as such on hording RTW factions under BI.exe there is my favourite thread, if you want to make them emerge: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=59665
I could have sworn I put that in answers database somewhere but can't find so maybe didn't.

and I did try summarising on TWC Wiki:
http://www.twcenter.net/wiki/Hording...tions_-_RTW/BI
(if I ever get round to converting things back from Wiki code I'll try and put summary here too)


To run RTW under BI.exe all you need to do is add -mod to the BI shortcut see:

though running the revised version from a mod folder is preferable, see:

....which is also in dire need of summarising, as RTW and BI methods got mixed up in discussion - sure I mentioned that to someone before ;)

Does it work in Alexander?

[Makanyane]

Nope sorry, BI.exe is the only Rome Total War .exe that supports hording. You'd have to get the Alex game/mod to run through BI.exe first, and you might have problems with that as Alex has some higher hard-coded limits.
