I've asked for any queries or interested people to post in this thread, so please make any newcomers welcome. Even if we just get one long stayer, like DDW in Wots PBM (who we recruited from the RTR forums), it will be worth it.

Ok, I'll keep an eye out.

And I am glad that we have the battle timer on.

[Ituralde]

Finally, my first battle is approaching.

Could you upload a savegame of the current situation Ignoramus so that I can have a look whether Leopold would like to sally or whether he waits for reinforcements? It's just that he's brave and energetic so I can't imagine him cowering behind the walls, waiting.
Also, if I understood it correctly only one small stack is besieging Vienna and I wouldn't want it to merge with that other small stack roaming the countryside.

[econ21]

Be careful. The strategic AI is improved in M2TW and stacks are often mutually supportive... Maybe we should have a spy to check things out before doing anything rash.

Things are going along at a nice clip here.

Great write up OverKnight.

I'm going to do a little reading as you mentioned. I can see all the other screen shots with out any problems. it's just one or two every now and then.

I think Ituralde is going to hand the Venitians a new set of lungs now he gets to fight!! :)

I'm still waiting for someone to lose.

I don't think I understand you there?

If by mutually supportive you mean that the other small stack could help the other stack beseiging Vienna, then that's exactly what I would try to prevent, and the forces beseiging a city should be visible.

EDIT:
Ah.. my bad, thought the 1124 savegame was not the one were Vienna was besieged, so I didn't download it until now. Now I see what you mean econ21, as the two stacks are so close to each other they might as well have merged. Looks like Leopold has to sit this one out. Too bad all Archers are holed up in Prague, could really need some of them if the Venetians attack.

Does anyone know where DDW is, he was quite the participant in the WotS.

Haven't seen him post in a while now, does he even have M2TW ?

Hello i am intrested in joining the House of Bavaria if you are up for more players. Have been playing Total war since the times of the original Shogun and have been playing Medieval Total War 2 since game day. Hope to see you fellas around

[TinCow]

You have chosen... wisely. Bavaria is the future!

Welcome to the game!

[OverKnight]

Yes Bavaria is the future! Econ21 handles assignments and checks in frequently I'm sure he'll comment soon.

Have a look around at the Library, Chancellor reports and Diet threads. They're a good way to get up to speed and gain a feeling for KotR. If you have any questions feel free to ask in this thread.

[AussieGiant]

Welcome lilirishman1986,

Don't let the Bavarian faction seduce you too much lilirishman1986

Econ will keep your request in mind.

Please consider House Austria.
