    Default what do you actually play?

    I wonder what people actually spend their time playing most of the time. I have the mod switcher on 1.2 install and a vanilla BI install, but i still spend almost all my TW time on RTR 6.3, and hardly ever play RTW/BI. I was just sort of interested in the relative popularity of different versions

    To keep myself interested, I switch it around. I'll play a RTW campaign, then I went to BI, then to RTR. Now I'm mainly on Multiplayer.

    Mainly Mundus Magnus for me. But as this only exists for RTW1.2 I might re-arrange my mod installs and go for an update to 1.5 (or 1.6 ).
    But I just love the huge map (= good for a slow gamer like me, as this will allow the AI to expand a lot too, so towards the end of a campaign I always have to fight strong enemies)

    Sure
    You'll notice that this is an old link. This mod is no longer "supported", and is for RTW 1.2 if I remember correctly.
    Download Mundus Magnus

    There were some issues with the stats of the Nubian spearmen's secondary weapon, so you might want to read the posts on page 3 in order to solve this problem. Or if it's too much of a hassle PM me and I'll send my txt file so you can replace yours.

    I play MTW/VI with VikingHorde's XL mod installed. Guaranteed to keep me entertained for quite a while--at least til Medieval 2 comes out, probably even longer.

    I think it's one of the most popular MTW mods around, you'd do well to do give it a try.

    I am now firmly fixed on my turn in a Seleucid (RTW, 1.5) PBeM. Very fun, my first try on the hard campaign difficulty (I usually play m/m), One town, Hatra, is getting sieged by the Armenians every turn lol, I almost have a full stack defending it.

    It's good to see M:TW still going strong. I too am playing M:TW/VI/XL. Looking forward to both Oblivion & MTW2, but to a new computer before either of them.

    I quickly gave up on RTW (perhaps to soon) and play MTW VI with XL mod. Found this mod makes game play very enjoyable.

    Warring through the civs of EB at the moment. Vanilla RTW was quickly replaced by the earlier RTR versions until BI which I grew tired of within 2 weeks. Went back to RTR 6.2 and re-installed withEB when it came out. I´m gonna stick with this one for a while now.
    At the momwent I´m not playing RTW but building houses and lots, creating skins etc for my 12 yo daughters Sims-game, great fun! But being a hard-core TW-fan I know I´ll eventually will be sucked into its magic again ;)

    In an EB campaign with rome at the moment but suffering an intense war with the Makedonians and Getians. Very depressing at present due to my playing skills on the battlefield being a little rusty

    Good man; XL is an excellent mod. You won't believe the hours you'll waste playing it!

    No, it is not finished yet but an open beta is available to give you a first taste, and quite a good taste it is, although there is still a lot of work to be done. Also, the EB team is working on a patch to sort out many of these issues.
