How the heck do I do Empire army compositions

it seems that no matter what I do the Chaos rapes me with their 9 XP demigods.

>build infantry to keep front line stable
>axe throwing horsemen rape everything
>build more gunners to keep down the horsemen
>poison wolves eat them alive
>build more cavalry instead to try and deal with the axe throwers and wolves
>front line disintegrates the moment they come into contact with the enemy

is Empire just weak as shit right now?

Nth for delicious butthurt when the Remainers win.

Well, there's bound to be plenty of butthurt either way, but since I'm not British and the Leavers are MUCH more prominent and vocal on this website I am going to see so much more butthurt if Remain wins.

Go Remain! Stronger Together and all that!

Leavers outnumber remainers at least 10-to-1 on this website.

At VERY least.

And a lot of them are very very impassioned.

Most remainers are just people who don't want to rock the boat, they don't generally care about the principle of the thing and thus are much less emotionally invested.

MoS for ultra comfy and piss easy.

how many assault towers do you like to make? I like to have 4 total, but sometimes that extra 2 turns to make them sucks

An honest question- Is there a way to git gut at large scale battles, or just keep doing them til I don't get rekt?
I'm doing a playthrough of both Attila (I quite honestly like the setting) as Huns and Shogun 2 as Shimazu and Uesugi/Ikko but consider dropping northen ones, as Takeda comes with their deathball of 4-5 full stacks 4+ exp units before 50th turn in and declares war each time.

Is Napoleon worth getting or still a buggy shitty mess?

Tiberius: he was strong and solidly built but his face was "disfigured" by Liver spots.He suffered from Astraphobia(he was very afraid of thunders)


Caligula:Caligula was tall,thin and very pale.His face sported preminent eye sockets.
He suffered from baldness since a young age,despite the fact that was described as an hairy person.
Due to this things,it is said that Caligula created two news capital offences: one was to looking down on him,the other was to nominate his name and the animal goat in the same sentence.


Claudius:he was tall and well proportioned;unfortunately for him,Claudius heavily suffered from stuttering,he drooled repeatedly during spechees and was affected by numerous nervous twitchings.(historians say he suffered from poliomyelitis,encephalitis,multiple sclerosis or cerebral palsy).

Nero:the last Emperor of the Julio-Claudian dynasty was stocky and with a prominent belly.Nero's eyes were of a light-blue hue and he sported blonde hair(during his trip to Greece he let his hair grow until they reached his back).


Otho:average height and build.The particular thing is that Otho had his whole body shaved and used a special unguent on a daily basis in order to prevent the growing of a beard.


Vespasian:not particularly tall or slender;the Emperor was considered a pretty vulgar person(his language was labelled off-color)


Trajan:according to Cassio Dio, he was pretty tall and had a respectable posture,despite his hair turned gray prematurely.
Lucius Verus:he was considered an handsome person:tall,jovial and with a prominent forehead.The Emperor used to sport a beard like the "barbarians" and spread his blonde hair with gold dust.He also proved to be a good orator.

>>146406546

>>146406714


Septimius Severus:he was stocky but energetic and strong.Since he was born in present day Lybia,his complexion was a little bit darker than previous Emperors and his accent revealed his origins(some historians say he was black).


Gordian I:he had good features.The most remarkable thing about this Emperor is that he was really fond of bathing and sleeping(he was known for falling asleep during dinner).

Constantine I:the Emperor was a really emotional person:he suffered from rage attacks but was easy to calm down.He was also vulnerable to flattery.

Julian the Apostate:average height,with hair always combed and a a spiky beard.His eyes were considered good-looking and therefore a sign of intellingence.His mouth was big and his lower lip was "floppy".

Augustus
Augustus was tall and handsome with particularly good teeth, though he was prone to poor health all his life. Late in life he got cold very easily, and took to wearing 'barbarian' style trousers around the house.

Vitellius
Vitellius was handsome in his youth and tended to blush easily. Later in life he became famous for his expert knowledge of culinary matters, but overindulgence in food and wines made him grotesquely overweight. He was likely Rome's fattest emperor.

Hadrian
Hadrian was of fairly slight stature and slender, with a handsome face and bright eyes. His beard and long, curly hair would be the 'fashion' for emperors for the next century. Antoninus Pius, his successor, had very similar physical traits.

Marcus Aurelius
Marcus Aurelius wore his dark, curly hair and beard long like his predecessors. He had a very sober demeanor and personality, and was an avid reader.

Commodus
Took after his father except that he was blond and appears to have been more powerfully built. He liked to eat large portions of meat, and was famous for his love of hunting and gladiatorial combats.

Pertinax
Seems to have worn the typical long hair and beard of his century. He was a short and stocky man.

>>146405669

Caracalla
Caracalla kept his beard trimmed shorter than his predecessors but wore his curly black hair fairly long; he seems to have had Syrian or Arab features like his mother. During his campaigns in Germania he wore a blond wig and Celtic clothing.

Elagabalus
Little is known of the youthful Elagabalus' features except that he appears to have been the first emperor in exactly a century to neglect growing a beard.

Severus Alexander
Like Caracalla Alexander wore a neatly-trimmed goatee, but his hair was shorter.

Philip Arabicus
Philip's hair and beard were cropped short in military fashion, his features seem to have been Syrian.

Valerian
Valerian was an old man when he ascended to the throne, he was stocky in build and was clean shaven.

Aurelian
Also an old man when he took the throne, Aurelian, along with Probus, Carus, Diocletian, and Maximian after him, favored short hair and a goatee.

Constantius II: the Emperor had a pretty dark complexion,with dark and piercing eyes.
His hair were soft and smooth.
Due to the fact that his limbs were pretty long,he was considered a good jumper.

Valentinian I:he had a musculad build and was well proportioned.his eyes were grey and was known for his hard stare.He was also gifted with a very good memory,that helped him a lot during all of his speeches
Valentinian was considered a simple but elegant person,devoted to chastity.

Valens:he had a pretty dark complexion and a prominent belly.He had a sight defect just in one eye.
Valens was considered a pretty lazy and credulous person.

>>146406927

Theodosius I:he was known for his blond hair and his hooked nose.He had a very elegant posture.Theodosius was considered a pretty umpredictable person(he was capable of extreme laziness or unremitting activities).

Constantius III:the Emperor had a big head and big eyes(famous for observing people with the corner of his eyes).According to the Emperor himself, his favourite activity was to discuss with clowns during banquets.

Valentinian III:he was known for being a very good runner.He had the bad habit of "having affairs" with other people's wives,despite his spouse Licinia Eudoxia was considered a beautiful woman.

Arcadius(Eastern Emperor):describe as a negligible and thick-headed person.He was characterized by very heavy eyelids that made him a dozy individual.

Zeno(Eastern Emperor): just like Valentinian III,he was known for being a good runner, but this was due to the particular shape of his knee caps.

The original stark plan was similar to Hannibal's plan. Then Jon said fuck that shit and charged, because the best way to get revenge on your opponent is to get killed and lose the battle.

There's a story about a M1 mob kill by AT weapons in hostile territory and had to be destroyed to prevent it from falling into enemy hands. A friendly M1 fired its 120mm at close range but was unable to disable it. In the end the chairforce was called in to fucking bomb it to pieces.

There's no bottom hatch on the abrams. I doubt the gun has the accuracy to hit a tank sized target even if stationary anyway.

>>146410036
They should have given them the silver shield for missle defence like the gobbos have. And increased their melee defense by a fuck ton

>>146406546
Gate fags at work again I see. You can just use magic or light fires all around. Or both.

>>146409779
Most rome 2 culture packs are worse than atilla's, the only one I'd buy is the one with epirus because they have a fun and challenging start and the dlc give Macedon a cav unit they both have that's really good. The one with the nomad factions is ok if you like horse archers and cav heavy armies, the rest are just underpowered factions with worse rosters and less variety than they rest of em.

The mini campaigns are good though except for wrath of Sparta, which has less unit variety than shogun and the least fun total war to date.

>>146409586
Autists happen to be CA's customers

>>146409420
Add an extra building slot for each settlement and food/sanitation ("""depth""""), more maps, some siege maps that are like the historical ones. The game is mostly fine aside from the lack of playable factions, a smallish campaign map and some balance issues, which are all very fixable, so I'm not too worried. If CA want to add in more campaign wide stuff with each expansion to add some more depth that also seems very possible.

They're gonna be equipped as appropriately for the mission. goths can't teleport so they'll have to travel to the tank in order to "flip it over" and somehow jimmy open the hatch (good luck) and I don't understand your retarded nonsense about the gun pointing the ground. You know you can depress the gun right?

They're both fine, although I think Grimgor is a bit more fun since he fucks shit up. You can get the other one fairly easily in the campaign though, I think all you need for Azhag is a shaman hut.

Interestingly, pretty well. Unless they bring shitloads of torpedoes. 19 steam tanks can take on two decent full stacks of Dwarves, a few squads of torpedoes and artillery.

More and more, I think the Steam Tank is a very cost efficient campaign choice, if not in MP.

He was from an extremely prestigious military academy, basically tailored from birth to become the best goddamn commander the world had ever seen. He was very popular among his soldiers, and thus they were eager to go to war under his wing.
His units were divided amongst a group of sub-commanders/high rank officers so that everyone knew what to do and knew who to listen to should something be changed. So it was quick to mobilize and move along their designated groups.

He basically reinvented the divide and conquer strategy by being ridiculously aggressive on the front. The moment he got word of an advancing army, he'd just go for it and mobilize to attack before they got their entire army together, effectively winning before the battle even started.

Not to mention, the French populace was quick to pick up arms to help at any time should he need to conscript a few zealous townsfolk - they were happy to do so.

Basically it all came down to, they trusted Napoleon, and he trusted them to follow him. Not until the later years before he got exiled did he fuck up on a grand enough scale that warranted anyone to ever doubt him.

More like the author conveniently made everyone on the other side of the gate an idiot so that the heroic JSDF could come out even more badass. Magic is there but you never see it used until the last chapters, and even the more "realistic" fantasy/historical elements are handled like shit.

How do you even get this done? How could you possibly only lose one troop to a 90% spear-based army with such numbers on their side? I'm not particularly good at battles in any TW game, but this is inspiring.

>>146415418
I read somewhere that his approach to artillery was new and effective, that he basically used a lot of lighter and faster artillery and could quickly open massive fire on any part of the enemy force

Most of the work was done by Rory although the 'I thought they were just japs, even I who was on scout force can't touch them' comment was fucking insane.
Also that CQC 'expert' beating the Praetorian Guard in close combat with nothing but her fucking bayonet pissed me off so bad, like if she fucking tries to use melee against heavy melee specialists she needs the sword

>>146415531
That's what you get for being the only ones using niggers in the SF lmao :^)

Pretty much. Napoleon recognized that speed is the number one factor in any war. If you can mobilize your troops and equipment faster than the enemy, that's a win for you.

You can figure this out, anon. I believe in you.

Sassykids in Attila in my Himyar game, had to raze and slaughter almost every one of their cities to get them to fuck off, that's not even mentioning their 101% shock cav armies. Finally cornering them into one shithole city in and destroying them was one of most satisfying moments in a TW game for me.
Honorable mention to Honma for sailing to the other side of nipland to invade me every game in Shogun 2.

>>146415551
Note how many horse archers he has. FOURTEEN fucking horse archers in a fullstack, fighting what I assume is a shitload of infantry (possibly with the morale bonus against Christians working in his favour).

The only real threat I see to him there are the two javelins, which he can draw away from the main infantry force by good kiting and fuck up with his 6 units of melee cav.

Basically his mobility won him the battle.

>>146415208
Peace? What are you, a zoggin humie? Gather up da boys, go stomp some gits and take their land, then gather more boys and go stomp even more gits, then WAAAGH!!! some stunties and take all their shinies

More like he realized that speed AND overwhelming firepower was the key, you don't need an anvil or a hammer if you have a gun.

>>146415706
>that doesn't mean it doesn't make sense in-setting.

But it doesn't make sense. The only reason for some ways of thinking would be the lack of cumulative knowledge, but that still doesn't excuse the personal retardation. And even if you could somehow believe everyone there is a retard, the way it is handled makes for a boring story that leaves you scratching your head at best if you're not a weeaboo or a jap nationalist.

Given the setting itself essentially states the NWers are fucking retards, you have no choice but to roll with it. It's a poor setting, but it's consistent.

What if the reason we're not getting any updates is because they're afraid they'll look incompetent next to the modders? Maybe they want to add more substantial content before releasing it?

Huns have a faction trait that reduces the morale of christian armies

That combined with the Hunnic general having a ton of traits/households that further debuffs christian armies makes it incredible easy to mass route the enemy once you snipe off the general

All thats left is clean-up duty

Here's an actual question - would standard assault rifle rounds pierce an inch of solid iron or steel? Because as absurd as it seems, the soldiers in not!Rome were carrying solid metal shields an inch thick.

We know they're working on DX12 and that's already quite a lot of work to make it not fuck everything up. Possibly releasing the blood DLC at the same time as the first patch would also make sense.
With the mod tools modders have access to at the moment they can't really do anything too amazing, I doubt that's CA's reasoning since only they can do proper legendary lords and new races.

If you're talking about special forces, it was like 20 v 20+20+20 in a kidnapping mission.

>>146416254
Depends on thickness but almost certainly not. An average APC has armor thickness of about 30mm.. a shield made of solid iron would be extremely heavy, it's probably wood and reinforced with metal.

>>146416401
They are the ones most fellated over, no surprise

>>146416254

If they had solid (lets say iron) shields an inch thick and say, 5 feet tall. Those are some heavy ass shields.

In 53 BC, a Roman army set out to conquer the kingdom of Parthia, the gateway to the riches of the East. I'm Matthew Settle.


This army didn't go into battle for the greater good of the empire. They did it to enhance the reputation and wealth of one man: Marcus Licinius Crassus, the richest man in Rome.

Crassus led 35,000 Romans into the Parthian desert. The Parthian general, Surena, with only 10,000 men met the Roman invaders at Carrhae, the modern day town of Harran, in modern day Turkey.

Now, with new video game technology, you are about to see this great battle as never before. The vast numbers of soldiers, the troop formations, how they fought and how the battle was won. Get the view the generals wish they had: now, on Decisive Battles.

depends on material, fuck. 30mm of aluminium could stop 5.56 and 7.62x51 rounds.

Wood with a layer of metal. Paint. The authors being ignorant as usual.

>>146416797
Well I mean
They had imperial archers arc their shots for no reason, and only one out of the hundreds of arrows fired found a mark at a range of roughly 40 meters.

>>146416952

Again JSDF wanking.

>>146416681
Probably wood, and the JSDF isn't using "assault rifles" in the show, they're using battle rifles that fire 7.62x51 which are MG rounds that easily penetrates car doors.

>>146416952
>40 meters

Romans could probably throw pila that far, what the fuck. Fucking jap wankers taking revenge on waitu piggus.

Yeah but I can kick a car door and dent it, I can't do that to an inch of steel.

It's not goddamned iron unless the person holding it is some kind of superhuman. Consider this: a scutum made of wood weighs 10kg.

>>146417379
Consider this: the Japs know nothing.

>>146417556
If it is indeed made of fucking iron an inch thick then yes, it would be able to stop battle rifle rounds. That's like a arming yourself with a slab of APC armor.

>>146417680
well APC armour is a mixture of ballistic ceramics and high carbon steel so its about 40 times harder than iron. An inch thick sheet of iron would be penetrated but would probably stop most bullets.

>>146417859
The sd kfz 251 was protected by 15mm of steel armor which could stop .303 rounds.
