Back to the topic of the M2TW MP forums (yes, the boring technical stuff, sorry):

-This forum, may need a namechange. Purpose: anything that doesn't clearly fit the others?
-Forum to post about tournaments, clans?
-The learn to play MP forum?

Yes? No?

[ElmarkOFear]

Maybe keep the Tournament Fields and just add in a

M2TW MP Knowlege Base?

or

M2TW MP Academy?

or you could even call it

M2TW MP University?

or since it is already in the MP section just call it:

The University or The Academy

I am not very good with names. :)

[t1master]

for pariya and monarch...


yest the tournies of old aka old tournaments like cwc, clan warbelt etc played on mtw and mtw:vi outlawed arty. infact the community in general during the mtw and mtw:vi had a standing rule on no arty... thought it was pretty clear, sorry for your poor comprehension skills ;)

I support Elmo's preposition. I would go for ''The Academy''.

[Jochi Khan]

Suggested forum name....Academy A Guide to MP M2TW

This would embrace all aspects of the game perhaps.

[Go Eazy]

The idea of an academy sounds excellent. You can post unit stats etc... and how they can be used to be most effective. Of course strategy as I have seen some players run straight into stakes and such and not understand why their cavalry just died. Also, I like the idea of replays and pics to actually see what an individual is talking about. A picture is worth a thousand words.

I was being sarcastic, I thought you'd understand, obviously I overestimated. I *trying* to point out that you were randomly talking about old tournaments that wern't on the same game, so obviously they wouldn't be the same

So, now who fails to comprehend.

@ tosa, sorry.

[pike master]

if you are going to allow some artillery you might as well allow all of it or its going to unbalance the game and the timurids need their elephants so throw them in too.

[t1master]

So, now who fails to comprehend.

me? ;)

it wasn't random really, mad cat asked if art was allowed in tournies...

no worries monarch, it was more for the caged pariya

[7Bear7Bottom]

Think CCS is way too early before the next patch is to be released, it's like playing mtw1 before they patched it. All that debate will be for nothing if we get a huge change in game mechanics. I will be waiting for CWC rules, since they have the forethought of waiting for the next patch.

-The learn to play MP forum?

M2TW MP Knowlege Base?

No sounds too much like a commercial from Xerox or Microsoft.

M2TW MP Academy?

I like this one.

M2TW MP University?

Too snobby.

-Forum to post about tournaments, clans?

MTW2 Community Events

Simple and to the point.

[pike master]

we are probably looking at march for a patch release so even if stuff doesnt work afterwards better work with it while you can. but since elmark is running the thread id like to talk about this art thing some more.

you know a lot of novice people are going to be awfully confused because you jump on them for having a basilisk while you are using a rocket launcher.yea they only have three salvos but if its timed right at close range your opponents center is gone.

i would rather charge a basilisk or a monster bombard then i would a rocket launcher so what is allowed and what isnt? i looked on the silent forum and couldnt find the thread someone gave me a link to. novice players are going to be teed off because clan players want to practice by tourney rules and novices dont understand them because they aint clear cut no art or ele.

if you ask me id prefer no rules at all it would still balance out. a ballista can snipe a general just as easy as a monster bombard.to me its either no art or all art anything else is going to unbalance the game.

[TosaInu]

First decide about the purpose of a forum 7Bear7Bottom, then look for a name.

So, we make 2 extra M2TW MP forums for now. We have three MP forums then, call them A, B and C for now. A is this current one, B is the MP Academy, C is Community Events. That correct?

[Monarch]

me? ;)

(please accept my apologies for being snappy.)

Anywho...

dont understand them because they aint clear cut no art or ele.

Just a point on this, I think you are automatically using the RTW (possibly mtw, I never played in online so wouldn't know) definition of art. But to a novice player, he wouldn't have played any tw before, so the definition of art is open to interpretation. I mean lets be honest ballista are more like crossbowmen than they are bombards.

Oh and it has to be said, to my knowledge nobody has taken any ballista or rocket artillery in CCS and we're well into round 2. Obviously people just don't like how slow they are, how expensive they are etc, so if they're not even worthy to take onto the field of battle...whats the point in banning them :/

the serpentine is accurate and definetly designed for anti-personel. basilisk, cannon and culverins have high explosive capability. even though i dont want em dont leave out the overpowered catapults they are good antipersonel.

sure a monster bombard is not antipersonel but when you start talking about the advanced cannons they have that ability. ballistas arent exactly known historically for being a major decision maker in a battle but light cannon like serpentines would be nice that would make a gunpowder counter to rocket artillery which is gunpowder based.
