Why did no one ever tell me about the moor rape train that comes from the south in the last roman campaign?

I wish the Allies bickered as much as they do know back in the fourties, then we could have won with all of them divided

>>127252063
We were going to tell you. Eventually

>>127252063
>no mod to let you play as said moors

it annoys me because everytime you go to select a faction in a campaign, the start date is located next to the faction, as opposed to somewhere else on the campaign screen, implying that there is, was, or could be the integration of later-start factions. but there isn't, the date is redundantly included in the faction tab.

>>127252063
I was separatist and already got 3 regions closest to the starting point when they attacked. Don't even remember them being a threat, killed like 3 stacks and they fucked off, raped them later.

>>127255781
Need more details, did this modern army suddenly just go back in time? They need a persistent supply chain so they dont starve to death.
And then there's all the diseases they'd be exposed to that we havent seen for generations, namely smallpox and the plague.

Or is it Jerusalem suddenly replaces modern Jerusalem and Israel lays siege to it, in which case why would the sieging army limit themselves to trebuchets, ballistae, and onagers?

sorry i don't play attila

>>127256280
Alright,let's see,the soldiers have enough supplies to last,say,two months,they also have siege equipment of every type possible,and they also know how to use it(they just do),they have huge quantities of ammunition,but they are limited to weapons like assault rifles,shotguns,pistols...no grenade launchers,missile launchers or sniper rifles though.

Why do retards always ask these pointless questions?

i finally brought myself to play through Rome2 roman campaign (emperor edition)

thing is , i didn't bother politics at all and didn't mind which generals i'm using

i want civil war but it seems im stuck at around 25% influence. it seems to naturally increase but it's annoyingly slow

i have max imperium and built colosseum, pantheon etc. but my civil war meter is 0 (although max imperium should make civil war happen fast)

i tried 0% influence but civil war didn't happen

pls respond

Is there a way to get rid of the public order debuff on harder difficulties? It's horribly artificial, and makes just feels like it drags the game out. I'm not generating much money, so I only have one full stack, a half stack, and a small garrison force. I can't go to take new provinces because I have to keep my armies in garrison, and I can't seem to pull my public order up enough to negate the -2 penalty.

>>127276037
You soon learn to routinely leave the city, siege it when it rebels then exterminate it, giving you 50 - 100 turns before you come back and do it again.

>>127276037
Public order will return to zero over only fiev turns while a rebel army is amassing. Then you just kill the rebels. Long term the problem will be solved through tech.

That's an understatement. It was a warzone between /pol/ and /lit/. It seems /lit/ won but only the most stupid of them have stayed.

Is any of the Rome 2 dlc worth it?

>>127278015
yer m8s are correct. it has mixed reviews because it's to rome 2 what barbarian invasions + alexander was to rome 1 - more difficult, deeper, significantly less casual. the people who le downboated it are classiboos who either hated the setting (which is good), the atmosphere (which is goty 10/10 amazing), or the difficulty (not fucking that hard at all, very hard/legendary should be the go-to for any seasoned total war/civ player)

buy it all baby, best decision i've made in a while

>>127278015
Poor optimization which often kills the ratings of games (just look at Just Cause 3 and Blops 3), misplaced anger about DLC, and the free weekend dragging in a bunch of TWC-tier autists.

>>127278015
Try reading them. It's pretty hard to find an actual review

Most of the fucking reviews don't even review the fucking game, which is retarded. They just scream how great medieval is and don't even look at the prons and cons of Attila.

They just say, MEDIEAVAL WAS BETTER HAAAR HAAAR DOWNVOTE.

>>127278951
I have a decent computer so it's not a big problem for me. It does run noticeably worse than Rome 2 for me though, I rarely budge from 60 fps on that.

>>127279212
Even the most useful negative review just exhorts you to buy RTW instead (which is completely fucked on steam), and unironically calls it more realistic.

>>127276485

Yes..it's a fun mod. Gameplay wise, it's very similar to that of Rome 1 vanilla. However, recruitment and upkeep costs are higher; culture will make pacification difficult; and combat is more realistic.

Unit rosters for all of the factions have been modified to be realistic of the time period and expanded. The Greeks have been given the biggest overhaul when it comes to units. So, that's why I chose them. The victory condition of the Greeks will require you to deal with Macedonia, Seleucids, Thrace, Rome, Gauls, and others.

>>127273534

Even if she is trying to do the right thing, her naivety and incompetence will take the previous noble action of taking immigrants in sensible numbers so they can assimilate whilst ensuring the country can provide for both itself and newcomers, to flooding the country with ill-educated masses who cannot be looked after properly and will be concentrated in low-income ghettos where they will struggle to get jobs and assimilate to the larger culture.
Typically resulting in a mistrust or even hostility to authorities, already evident in the "no-go" zones for police and even ambulances.
Not to mention the taking in of refugees will not solve the problem in Syria nor stop the flood of people trying to escape said problem, it also rewards the human traffickers who benefit from this disaster because they tell desperate people of the benefits in other countries literally half a world away. When the best solution would be to look after the refugees in their own country.

How do you loot and burn villages in battles in Attila? I remember seeing something in pre realease videos about there being a setting to enable your men to just loot and burn as they please.

Also how do you burn them down effectively in battles?? Archers seem to do fuck all against buildings, even straw and wood barbarian ones with flaming arrows. The only luck I've had is through burning watchtowers and hoping fire spreads.

A unit needs to have the raider trait. Not all units can do it.

To me it happens automatically as that unit moves through the settlement. They throw torches at nearby buildings as they move along.

You should include the Habsburgs. Their megalomania is responsible for so many damn wars in Europe. With exception to a Napoleon or a Hitler normally one in Europe only sought to be a hegemon by consent and not by force. They wanted or tried to rule every damn dynasty and kingdom in Europe like a familial mafia. They brought us the Eighty Year's war, the 30's year war and the incredible devastation it brought to Germany, spearheaded the heavy handed treatment of Protestants that divided Europe when it ought to have been united against the Ottomans, spent more time trying to assert their claims in Europe than in fighting the Ottomans in the Mediterranean.

However consider all the great accomplishments of German commoners or lower nobility and you end up with a positive impression. But holy shit there is something deficiency wrong with the German aristocracy and ruling class.

>When I see neo-reactionaries advocating a return to monarchism on /pol/ Nothing wrong with being a monarchist for an existing constitutional monarchy but these simpleton faggots want us to return to divine right of kings.

I don't think I was ready for this much bait, but here we go

>rome fell because germans led germans to wreck rome

Yes, because an incompetent emperor in the west put the military in shambles by trumping up charges for treason against its hafu commander stilcho, and killed him. Which was followed by roman aristocrats putting to death their contracted german commanders at their estates etc, which sent a wave of violence against germans across the empire which set in motion alarics march on rome to free their people. Stilcho failed to understand the need for strong men to arise and defy authority if it is weak. He may have been a good general, but he lacked political savvy.

>Invade british isles, and rekt it

It was okay, they had quite a few cities in roman style with elites imitating roman governance. However, by the 5th century they were all poor as fuck due to the shifting of climates, etc. Good quality wine used to be grown along the dry eastern shore of england. Due to a lack of strong local government there due to poor political elites, they began to import companies of germans etc to act as their house bodyguards, kill their enemies, etc. Eventually they realized that the political elites were actually powerless, and that they could just take over the system replacing them. For the most part, peoples life went undisturbed. England had been depleted of human life quite significantly due to reasons still not well understood.

>printing bibles put monks out of business

No, monks put themselves out of business once they began to collect large land estates that they greedily held. Should have sold off/rented the land and explored more resource intensive ways of developement. The carmelites I believe used to produce beers as a past time. Or just begin to operate the printing machines themselves as a form of cottage industry in which monks would produce vast quanities of books.

>>127290048
Marx was German
Germans honestly need to be deported around the world and forced to marry into other races or recieve chemical castration if they refuse to do so. Getting rid of the German identity will do wonders for the world. the Refugees easily pose a solution, but as usual, Germans are too stupid to see that they could enforce men to take a syrian wife and women to take a syrian husband, solving both the mystery of what to do with them, and breaking cultural barriers to get rid of the racist german attitude that keeps the immigrants confined to camps that Hitler would be proud of

>>127289612

>fanatical germans tossing people out of windows

No, those were Czechs, who were tired of being under colonization by germans from more prosperous areas. They rallied behind Jan Hus as a cultural figure that stood against the authority of the pope (though he mostly just repeated what he knew from Wyrecliff on that), as well as challenged the German run university in Prague. They wanted their native language to also be a language of study/business in the university. The university masters refused. So they tossed shitheads out the window that challenged the mighty Czech spirit, and turned back 8? or more crusades against them until their organization split and collapsed. This was actually what predicated the reformation, since these heretics won a special license from the pope themselves to practice their religion with freedom from persecution, it also challenged papal authority since they removed crusader scums with impunity. Additionally, it was a shadow of what war would be to come, as the cannon and pistol were used extensively by the Bohemian general whose victories would put him up there as a candidate for best general out there. Guy got the fucking plagued and did a tactical artillery breakthrough from an encirclement way before artillery was even on the minds of military commanders. (1453 and the fall of constantinople is often seen as a marker for the change in warfare, I would disagree and say it happened during the Hussite wars since it was integrated within combat operations as tools of the battlefield)

>Habsburg

Historical Anomaly. Like playing grand stratagy with random lucky nations on. They managed to inherit the spanish throne and phillip ruled both a vast and mighty spanish empire, was the king of the holy roman empire through family, and had lands in present day netherlands and belgium due to fucking chance. The nobility was naturally headed towards inbreeding, since the aristocracy was constantly tightening becoming fewer in number

I would make a backup of the vanilla sounds folder and do it. I can't say if they would have renamed or edited entries in it that would have caused problems for you.

Best case scenario it works, 2nd best is some sounds work, worst is a CTD and you made a backup so you can just revert to it.

Went to Franklin Institute's Genghis Khan exhibit before it ended on Sunday. Was neat, though I think a lot of the information there one could find on their own and I'm never really sure when/if artifacts are the real deal or when they are re-creations because of how precious they would be to showcase not in airtight air controlled containers.

The lamellar was almost certainly not the real deal since it was out where you could touch it (though that'd be faux pas). But it looked legit and it was great to get a view of lamellar in real life as wrapping my head around how the loops and lames work together had been a bit tricky to discern.

>>127292093
actually there were two defenestrations... first started the Hussite rebellion as you said. It happened basically because people of Prague were mad that Jan Hus was burned in Konstanz.
The second defenestration was the one that started the 30 years war. This time people were angry, that habsburgs took their religion freedoms. This rebellion was crushed pretty quickly, but it is now considered to be start of the war.
Also there was one less famous defenestration between them in 1486 because of some religious conflict between catholics and utraquists.
It looks like pushing poloticians out of window is some kind of Czech national tradition.

>>cant even conquer the whole map, can only conquer your nemesis
No, you can only conquer specific settlements according to your race. Humans will conquer standard cities not dead badlands territories or caves, since humans don't like living there. But when Skaven are added, like the skaven they are, they can just take over anything. Then humans can take human style skaven cities and dwarves can take skaven caves.

>>127305310

>>127305575
Only very late in the game, and you still miss out on full plate and a lot of the gunpowder toys Europeans get.

[sarcasm] God I love the 'conquer entire Warhammer map' debate. Absolutely amazing. [/sarcasm]

So, first you slaughter all the rats (along with Skaven) to prevent them replenishing Skaven ranks.

Then you slaughter every single woodland creature to prevent them replenishing Beastmen.

Then you slaughter every single Dwarf - 'cause those fuckers don't know the meaning of the word SURRENDER. (Book of Grudges anyone?)

Then you burn down everything just to make sure all Orc/Goblin spores are destroyed and they have nowhere to spawn again.

Then you destroy every graveyard to the bone so the Undead can't raise their host - along with all the Necromantic books, and (just to be sure) anyone that can read, so the Necromancers of both types can't rise again.

After that you are free to march into the Chaos Wastes where your glorious army will gleefully embrace Chaos (Khorne, most likely), join the Horde, and walk back home in style - razing everything that's left around them.

[sarcasm] Excellent plan, my lord! Worthy of Sigmar himself! [/sarcasm]

You can always check his position through cheating Since he's the faction leader he will always be the Hun icon on the diplomacy map

Thanks for the advice. Already tried that and, unfortunately, he's not.

I think I fucked it up and made him a statesman, though. I chased him with some spies and wounded him a couple of times. I'm gonna keep killing generals until - hopefully - he replaces one of the leaders I killed.

Is it possible to assassinate him 3/4 times and he stops spawning? Or do I need to annihilate him in a cataclysmic battle?

Be honest lads

Is the 1648 mod for Medieval 2 any good? I'd really want me sum P&S after playing EU4 nonstop due to a poor laptop ;_;. Thanks in advance.

>>127313931
I dunno man, the religion roleplay shit and other kinds of shitposting happened a lot during euro time.

Should I play radious for Attila?
How bad is it?

It's difficult to tell. The best aspect of it is the fact that it puts you in a scenario which is really fun as you do not get to play this in vanilla total war. On the other hand the game mechanics are really weird. Sieges are broken, more than the vanilla m2 counterpart (for example- I am being shot at during the whole siege yet the walls are empty)
You just have to try and see for yourself. It's fun by being unique, but this would have worked better with empires: total war.

There have been numerous undisputable masterpieces in total war modding, such as the strikingly realistic classic Europa Barbarorum or its medieval counterpart Stainless Steel. Radious mod will not join their ranks; its surface is too generic, its presentation too provocative and its messages too obscure. Its take on the abysmal is an illumination in one person’s despair, but a paroxysm of another’s perversion. It will remain underground – treasured by the most avant-garde among intellectuals for its edifying if horrifying insight into the fundaments of human morality. Philistines and self-proclaimed critics alike will shun Radious mod, but you can’t fault them for that. It takes wisdom to appreciate its subtleties, and courage to side with the unpopular opinion. Sed domi maneas paresque nobis novem continuas fututiones.


Superficially, Radious mod appears to be a mod which caters to the most proletarian among men; aloof critics dismiss it as such often without a second thought. As complacent as these self-proclaimed "understanders of strategy" are, they fail to realize that Radious mod is a cult classic, a chef d'oeuvrea buried under false preconceptions and unfounded criticism. This gem is hidden because it does not shine; it is buried because its tone is that of abyssal black. Radious mod pries into to the darkest corners of our subconscious, the most visceral of our cognition, the most carnal of our urges, and the most primal of our instincts.

As brilliantly put by Cattalus, "Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo"; to describe the artistic qualia of Radious mod would be to describe music to the deaf, color to the blind or beauty to the philistine. The painting speaks for itself, and it is up to the player to fully absorb its depth. Its sublimity will ever be debated yet always remain objectively irrefutable; the fundamental insight it provides into human and perhaps animalistic nature may shape the basis of Total War modding for centuries to come.

>>127301254
I always set arbitrary goals for my games, then finish them when they're completed. Map painting has always been for /gsg/ nerds.

>>127314997
Perhaps you're getting shot at because I don't know, maybe you’re in tower range you fucking moron?

>>127304193
People wanted the "Races" to be like the culture groups in Rome II and Attila.

>>127315202
What kind of memetard are you exactly? So what do you suggest? Recruiting 5 cannons for each army so I can perform sieges without extreme unnecessary losses? I wish we could IP ban people like you

>>127315202

See those walls in the background? Impenetrable by cannon fire. You would know that if you had played the mod, so your smart ass remarks are irrelevant

>>127315662
>Impenetrable by cannon fire.

>>127315662
You mean like star forts which is historically accurate? You do know that attackers take more losses in sieges throughout history right?

Do you guys ever do campaigns that you set aside to only play while drunk

Cos I do

Fuck this stupid ugly game.

every game before and including shogun 2 had better looking units, on any detail level

this is fucking atrocious and terrible

And if you put it above the minimum? framerate drops horribly.

>>127318425
Not the same anon. Some of the total war games are bad at detecting your pc specs and send you into medium mode. You might have to tinker with a text file to make sure you get the max settings

>>127318425
Are you the 1st gen i7 guy?

>>127319921
I don't too much about that, but I know there are some config files you can fiddle with to force the game to run lower/higher.

Look around on TWCenter.

>>127320842
You mean without the Poles and Austrians?

Why the fuck dwarfs suffer from attrition in their holds in the warhammer:TW? Just watched a stream with orcs in it.

Also, dem conquer options for orcs. At least there is no liberate option.

Anybody had this problem with Rome 2 when the game doesn't start after the launch? How did you fix it?

>>127321606
Because they were under siege for a long time?

>>127314997
How bout italian wars?

>>127322069
Long time is centuries for dwarf holds.
It either fall due to diversions from the mines or after many months of heavy assaults not just from orcs camping outside.

Question about the Berserk trait in Attila

-When it triggers, does the unit receive any sort of bonus?
-What causes it to trigger?

>>127323442

>When it triggers, does the unit receive any sort of bonus?

Nope

>What causes it to trigger?

MTTH RNG. Countdown triggers when they are in a fight.

>>127323442

Berserk units get a free refresh to their fatigue

They'll end up being fresh if the trait gets triggered when they're tired/exhausted

>>127313370
Anyone?

>>127313370

They dont

>>127276037
If you are speaking of Attila the solution is quite simple. Prioritize public order over money, this usually means building a Warlord's Hall etc. as the barbarians instead of a City industry building for example.

>>127313370
Just finished my campaign with them. No,

>>127323741
You make Berserk sound like a shit trait. What's the point of it then? If it is truly RNG I'd hate for it to trigger on my own guys.

>>127323840
I see. How do I take advantage of this then? Tire them out as quickly as I can?

>>127318425
8gbs of ram is not much these days, also what generation i7 ?

>>127278015
It is actually a very solid game and I personally prefer it to Rome 2. It looks better than than R2 but at the cost of performance. I have a powerful rig so I'm able to run it maxed out in 1440p resolution.

>>127324280

I'm pretty sure they only attack the enemy, you just have no control over them when they are bersek.

It is a negative trait to balance their sick stats and other very powerful traits.

>>127324359
Do you live in the future? If not then you're lying.

>>127324280

Im not really sure what triggers it, I think its completely random because sometimes my units go berserk at the very start of the fight

Also forgot to mention once they do go berserk, you cant control them. They'll just attack whatever unit is close to them

And the "fresh" status stays on until they cool down, which is also random

>>127324280
Shoot them with missiles and kite them, they usually have very low armor
