Unfair for whom?

Unfair for whom?

To the levies of course...

you brought many slaves, but few warriors

Edit: Forgot to give it a name. I'll call it "Before the storm".

Very cool screenshots here, as always.

Here's my entry:

Death in Media

[konny]

Here is my entry: Title "Charge of the Turma Cotta"




I have to apologize for the arrow but there was no unit standing behind the 'camara' all were either left or right.

[Charge]

I think I should post a example of how to take good screenshot.

1. Open preferences.txt and change TGA_CAPTURE_WIDTH:1024 to 1280;
2. Add to the shortcut parameter -movie_cam;
3. Launch game, play custom battle, save replay, load it;
4. Using movie-cam controls (num pad) and pause get view you want, press space and num lock to eliminate ui!;
5. Set all graphic options to Highest, except anti-aliasing (it will give black shot);
6. Take screenshot;
7. If you want, edit it in photoshop, + save in .jpg;
8. Upload to imageshack, and copy "direct link" line;
9. Post here, [IMG]link[/IMG]. That's it! Wait for a poll...

I use anti-aliasing x4 (or is it x8?), just use FRAPS to take the shot.

[TWFanatic]

I can't use anti-aliasing. It's "greyed out."

[Hooahguy]

same- but thats getting changed soon

[Spoofa]

I can't use anti-aliasing. It's "greyed out."

New gfx card suggestus thee.

(trying to be old englishy.)

[Justiciar]

I feel like Justiciar, when he's around, usually submits nice shots of close combat, and good Celtic shots. I still think the Capital One shot should've won that month.

God bless. Justiciar isn't "around" at the moment, because he can't be bothered to install RTW for the umpteenth time. Alas, he wants to play EB 1.0! 'tis a conundrum.

[paullus]

but there's always an umpteenth and umpteenth plus oneth time to install RTW to play EB! that said, I fully appreciate your conundrum, since i actually have 1.0 installed, but never get a good opportunity to play.

nice pics btw guys...and konny, if you get another shot like that, you can press "ENTER" to deselect your units. That was the arrow wont appear.

[hoom]

Unfair for whom?

Exactly

[konny]

and konny, if you get another shot like that, you can press "ENTER" to deselect your units. That was the arrow wont appear.

Thank you, will do it next time.

I think it's time to close this and make the internal poll

[paullus]

yeah, at least by the end of today or tomorrow. Vicious Monkey...who is that battle against? celts? getai? the sheer masses of men makes it seem like that had to have been an awesome battle.

It's against the Arverni. Mori Gaesum in phalanx formation in the middle with sotaroas in a loose formation in front of them. To the left and right of the Mori Gaesum are Gaelache. The Arverni left, is made up of one unit of Neitos and Arjos each - even though you can't tell from the picture. A little behind them, and further away and even more unrecognizable, is a unit of Leuce Epos. Brihentin behind the Mori Gaesum in the center. Behind the Gaelache stationed to the left of the Mori Gaesum is a unit of Botroas. To their left in a loose formation is a unit of Iaosatae.

The Arverni right wing, which can't be seen in the picture, consists of a unit of Bagaudas, Gaesatae and those Alpine Shortswordsmen. Behind them a unit of Noricene Gaecori, Solduros (partly behind the Gaelache) and at the very flank one unit of Remi Mairepos. That's all, IIRC. It was a fun battle, yes.

[Teleklos Archelaou]

Well the EB-team will elect the 10 best (if the amount of submissions require it). A poll will be opened the last week of the month, in which the fans can cast their vote. The winner will be the one who got the most votes. The poll will close the last day of the month. The next day submissions for the next month can be made in a new thread.

Good luck and best wishes,
-The EB Team.
note: all screens must be in before the 24th of October!

those usually don't happen in their given time though, which is why i suggested to make the poll sooner...

[Hooahguy]

ya- i agree- make it soon plaese!

[Teleklos Archelaou]

Make the poll on the 18th? It just doesn't follow what we've done at all with it. Why not just have it on the 12th or 3rd?

[The Celtic Viking]

I agree with Teleklos. There may be those who hasn't submitted a picture yet but will do it, let's give them the time we promised them. Who knows, someone may just capture that magnificent screenshot that will win the competition tomorrow...

[Goth47]

I am surprised Zaknafien hasnt submitted his picture from the fog of war thread https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=93448.
I think its a potential winner.

Goth
