IGdood Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 Hiya guys...I don't know when the next update will be but I have tons of lab reports to write and computer science coding. Running on 2 hours of sleep today, so definitely no update today, I believe. Ships, eh? Well, I suppose I might call the second-rates "Diplomacy" and "Intimidation". I'll leave the ULTIMA SHIP and SIMILARLY ULTIMA CAVALRY to someone else. Okay, I'll keep a note of that. Name ships? Cool, then... Wait, I have no idea what kind of ships you have. Though if that Heavy First Rate can be renamed... Anyway, I claim one ship to be called 'White Base', just in case. Let the Gundam meme commence! The next Steamship, simply for being high tech....if I ever get one again. The Heavy First Rate or any other heroic ship must be the Indefatigable. MUST. I have claimed NO OTHER STAKES. Okay. Why u no name other units Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Because I have never felt as strongly as I do now about naming units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 Yaargh mateys, your ships be named. These be Furetchen's. This one be Integrity's. Due to a translation error from the native tongue to Italian, the Jaguar Squad now have their appropriate names. With the situation in the New World stabilized, the knights set sail back to their homeland....to Morocco. And now I can research industrial technologies because one of the places I conquered in the Americas had a factory. Upon arrival in Morocco we are immediately beset by their armies. The ranged cavalry have taken up position behind the militia units. Cannonballs hit their lines. I'm starting to see a pattern emerge amongst the playstyle of the Knights. With Prussia, I had tons of elite infantry and artillery, ready to fight a very standard European line battle. With the USA, I had more mobile forces, primarily long-ranged light infantry. With the Knights.....we seem to be having a lot of melee cavalry and melee units. Avon Gate Foot whip out their pistols and shoot at some passing cavalry. I order them to chase those cavalry, lest they do something to the side of my lines. Yet the enemy manages to evade the Bucanneers and....charge home at my militia. What the fuck? Oh now you show up, Avon Foot. ALL LINES. OPEN FIRE! pssst....another reason I put the ranged cavalry behind militia is because no doubt friendly fire will occur, and it would be more beneficial for them to get shot than our valued guard troops. Bucanneers move up. Many of them are shot to death by the janissaries, but they counter with pistols. The first few troops were repulsed, but it would seem that they have gathered up a force. Once again, lines of gunpowder fire ripple across our battle lines, sending the Moroccans reeling. ANGRY MARINES. ALWAYS ANGRY. ALL THE --OW MY SPLEEN Axemen, FORWARD! Even with practically whittled down numbers, the Buccaneers charge forward! Ye armor be not frightenin' me spirits, yo-ho! Aesir riders decide to lend a sword. CHOP CHOP CHOP Here I was trying to screw around an infantry unit with the Jaguar Squad. They end up killing 40, but then got caught in the enemy muskets and lost 15. Which then pisses off the Order Cavalry, who proceed to massacre these musketeers. The subjugation of Morocco has begun! We have reinforcements. Now hope they can make it across in time. Here we go again! Their cavalry are obliterated. Enemy mob? o_o Enemy light infantry! Bastards! BUCCANEERSGO AT IT AGAIN! Jaguar Squad falls back, lest they be caught in the melee, which they suck at, despite having axes. Marksboyz do battle with the enemy janissaries. 19 more bullets and a beer on the wall...what?

IGdood Posted April 30, 2011 Author Share Posted April 30, 2011 The Moroccan forces crumble before us! Kill the survivors! Rake recruited. Time to do some spying. New town finally emerges...I decide to turn it into an industrial town. Forces joined! Pwnt, bitch. Ottoman scholar assassinated. The last of the Moroccans are besieged. Upgrades Scouting reveals minimal enemy forces. It would seem my recent foray into researching industrial tech has caused some of my gentlemen to become capitalists. They cannot hope to win. Wow, dim lighting. Their cannons open fire. CANISTER SHOT. Get 'em off our trenches! Let's fall back a bit, Termina Division. This is the most gruesome and funniest scene I've seen in a total war screen to date. Pitiful resistance. Melon Cutterz lost 7 prized men from a stray cannonball. =( Morocco belongs to the knights now. Poland you son of a fuck. Also, my allies refused to join me in the war. Hooray, but I don't have any light infantry. Well I can finally recruit some now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted April 30, 2011 Author Share Posted April 30, 2011 Let this Steamship be known as the White Base. With the best technology of its day, it shall speed across the high waters, delivering dynamic entries. I end my turn, get blockaded, and go bankrupt from no income. We must fight, or you'll get no pay! White Base is not very white. Chug chug chug. The Polish are coming from the left. I swerve my battle line in the hopes of cutting into their line. Diplomacy turns to start firing while everyone else continues on. Fuck! It's a rocket ship! That ship launches rockets from long range attempting to set any of your ships on fire. I send Indefatigable at it. Diplomacy takes the majority of cannonfire, but it should be able to take more. The Polish fleet is caught in a clump, to my advantage. Indefatigable catches fire....I immediately tell the crew to stop whatever the hell they are doing, giving some time to put it out. Back to action. Gotta take down their heavy first rate... This First Rate goes to the other side of the enemy fleet. Hey look, White Base caught on fire. WAIT WHAT?! They rout....which isn't so good.... I guess a lucky cannonball hit the engine or something. Enemy ships are starting to sink and surrender, which means the battle is going well. And my first Rate can't handle the pressure. Stop sailing away White Base! Captain Integrity says "TAKE OUT THAT ENGINE" Dipomacy's hull strength is getting low, but they continue to fight. Ha, surrendered! Trying to manage all these ships isn't easy. As they are all heavy, they're slow and take forever to turn. You may have noticed I haven't been using the other ammo types, Chainshot and Grapeshot. It's because I'm focused on blowing ships up and sinking them, not crippling them for capture. Besides, ships will surrender when you blast enough regular cannon at them. Diplomacy has lost more than half its guns and almost half its crew, and still it holds. But I order it to withdraw. Don't want it suddenly taking an unlucky shot that creates a hole or blows up the gunpowder chamber. C'mon Privateer....try not to die. My galley explodes. My First Rate routs, but there's still an ememy Polish first rate remaining, Indefatigable and Intimidation will have to finish this. Hull's giving way.... Bonus damage for shooting at a ship's front or rear! The marines onboard the Indefatigable snipe at enemy crewmen. Well, it's a win, and I sell off the captured ships. Leveling up is different for ships....it doesn't matter how many enemy crewmen killed....it only counts which ship sink what ship....and then gives experience accordingly. New tech. Our good monarch dies... Ottoman fleets raid my trade routes.... Wow...this guy's old...but skilled, good enough. Damn Ottomans, trying to suck my income dry.

IGdood Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 Bright day. I expect this light galley to die very very soon. Fuck, it's a bomb Ketch, basically a worse version, but still almost just as dangerous....version of the Rocket Ship. If you play Advance Wars, a Rocket Ship would be Rockets and the Bomb Ketch would be Artillery. Ships were repaired the last turn, so everyone's got a full crew and full hull. CAPTAIN INTEGRITY SAYS FIRE ALL FUCKING CANNONS NOW Light galleys harass a ship. What's great about Light Galleys is that they're cheap, they distract ships, they actually can last a few volleys, which means a few less volleys for your more important ships. It's all worth it. White Base, with its steam engine of super speed, catches a Bomb Ketch and delivers CRITICAL HIT. Cutting into their line... White Base goes to the rear of the Ottoman line. Light galleys are still not dead. White Base deals with a Xebec, a lighter ship. A ship blows up near Diplomacy, setting it on fire and causing it to surrender. Unfortunately, ships that have surrendered care nothing about putting out fires, so I can only but watch as Diplomacy burns to a crisp and sinks. The battle ended 5 seconds later after Diplomacy sunk. And how we have another battle. Dark day today, isn't it. Well...we'll see if we capture any more ships worthy. All fast ships to the side, all heavy ships go towards the enemy. All light ships, turn around! Fucking wind is against me...heavy ships are....really...really.....slooooooow. Not to mention, I haven't had the chance to research one naval technology. Intimidation intimidates by deciding to take on all the Ottoman ships. A bomb ketch! Nooooo! Light ships fleeing...dammit. Well nevermind, now that the heavy ships are beating on the Ottomans, I can move White Base and the privateers somewhere else. Well actually nevermind, the Ottomans changed direction again. My privateers flee because the Bomb Ketch popped a few bombs....White Base remains courageous and probes around for a weak spot. Yeah I can disregard the wind when I'm commanding White Base...it's awesome. AWESOME. OHOHOHOHO Bomb Ketch sets Indefatigable on fire....and they surrender. Holy fuck. Intimidation gets boarded, crew is wiped, and surrenders. Holy fuck of fucks. DYNAMIC ENTRY CRITICAL HIT MOTHERFUCKER. YOU TOO YOU PIECE OF SHIT FUCK KETCH Feeling confident, the crew of White Base continues to harass whoever is in range. Yeah. We won.. And I forgot to take a screenshot of the victory screen. Tired of naval battles? It's practically our main source of income right now. The Polish and Ottomans keep sending full fleets every fucking turn, and it takes a lot of cash to fix up our fleets and get in new crew. Full speed ahead! Actually wait turn around, the wind is against us! The new ships (Fourth Rates, courtesy of the Ottomans) will sail and duel with the line. Everyone else....wait to intercept. Open fire! Aye, turn 'er around...too close, too close! Even heavy First Rates will go down when you shoot enough balls at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 Right now this set up is the best any naval commander would want. The enemy ships are all in a clump, so half of them can't shoot you. All of my ships are surrounding this clump and unloading. They are quickly devastated. I'm gonna try and have White Base kite around that heavy first rate. Gotta stay out of their cone of fire. "No way I'm letting you shoot at my ship, bitch! " - White Base Captain. I swear, I'm pulling off such a dick move. TROLOLOLOL Oh what the, SHIT. HA. HA.. Oh heeeeelll no! FULL SPEED OUT The other ships catch up...finally. Indefatigable volleys out! Battle won..forgot to take a screenshot...and...OH SHIT POLISH INVASION FORCE...WITH FUCKING PEGASUS KNIGHTS. I mean..Winged Hussars BUT FUCK FUCK FUCK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping White Base gets boarded at least once to post meme. *shot* Given how fast White Base is, it'll be the one doing the boarding. It's great for catching routing ships and boarding them to make them instantly surrender, although it's quite low on the firepower and HP side...at least compared to anything above a 5th rate. It can take on most light and medium ships. By the way Furet, since Diplomacy is....sunk. Want to transfer the name onto a First Rate or should I try to capture a Second Rate and name it Diplomacy II?

Integrity Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 HA HA HA CAPTAIN INTEGRITY SAYS FIRE ALL FUCKING GUNS NOW Aside, I tend to build my Ottoman fleets entirely out of Light Galleys. They're practically impervious to fire (until they catch a ball and die), they're cheap as hell and they have four beefy motherfucking guns on the front. Get fifteen or so of them and laugh as the enemy sails at you in a line, exploding one by one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 Diplomacy is dead to me now...it has failed its master and is a disgrace to Malta. It's time for vengeance. Let a First Rate be named...Persuasion. Yessir. HA HA HA CAPTAIN INTEGRITY SAYS FIRE ALL FUCKING GUNS NOW Aside, I tend to build my Ottoman fleets entirely out of Light Galleys. They're practically impervious to fire (until they catch a ball and die), they're cheap as hell and they have four beefy motherfucking guns on the front. Get fifteen or so of them and laugh as the enemy sails at you in a line, exploding one by one. Yeah, light galleys can do a surprising number. Right now I've got a lot of them raiding trade routes and such, distracting the main Ottoman and Polish fleets although I still get a naval battle every turn since they try to blockade Malta and put me in bankruptcy. SO uh, yeah, as I was saying, I've been getting 1-2 naval battles every fucking turn with no end in sight (until our knights crush the Ottoman Empire and Poland) This looks to be a huge one. Well, let's set sail then. White Base hungers for Ketch! Light galleys, do your thing! This battle occurred before I named a First Rate Persuasion. Fourth Rates are no match! Privateers use their speed and range to snipe at the enemy. That thing is still floating? Cutting into their line. I order White Base to board the Ketch. Maybe I can capture it. Majority of Ottoman fleet is routing by now....or surrendered. Heheh, surrendered! Second wave of ottoman ships arrive in the form of their light galleys. Fire it all into that mass of wood and oars! A ship took heavy damage from galley cannons, but it's still going. Maybe withdrawing would be a better choice. Galleys tend to explode for some reason. Although the kill shot may have come from White Base, whom I noticed passing by with a few smoking cannons a few seconds ago. Victory, and check out the money we earned. Obligatory shot of White Base crewmen boarding another ship from some other battle. Ah right, the Polish invasion army landed on our shores. We prepare to kick their asses with superior numbers. So basically the garrison will hold off the Polish, and the rest of us will attempt to rescue them. General Spinelli and the order Cavalry and some infantry units arrive. Hey look, their artillery is exposed. Fuck, fuck, fuck! The Polish artillery turn around and fire Quicklime (acid) at the Spiky Gitz, melting 20 of them or so. Jaguar Squad charges forward. And open fire C'mon infantry hurry the fuck up. Polish hussars gallop forward to fight the Jaguar Squad, who promptly retreat as the Aesir and Spiky Gitz charge forward. FOR THE MELTED Yo dawg why you swing your sword at empty air when I'm all the way in front of you? Meanwhile, Polish guard troops pwn my armed citizenry on the walls. Well one guard gets pwned. Jaguar Squad (they're really fast) ride around and shoot some Polish infantry trying to climb my walls. PEGASUS KNIGHTS I mean...WINGED HUSSARS! Those fuckers are actually historically correct. They are lancer cavalry whose stats are high enough that they can stay in a melee and pwn shit. Clusterfuck on the walls. Order Cavalry spot some enemy light infantry and charge forward. While my infantry reinforcements got charged by Polish Royal Guard cavalry. It's their general! Get 'em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 Spiky Gitz take a few more bullets, but that's nothing. They pwn the guerillas. Bitch I be duckin' your lances. Not even Winged Hussars are immune to bullets. I'm retreating the Order Cavalry, as they have sustained quite some losses and these infantry aren't cavalry bait. Polish elite cavalry routed. As old units perish, the Melon Cutterz arrive. I'm sure they can do something while the infantry are shooting at something. Oh, right, I forgot to take pictures of the walls. This was before a bloodbath. After coming under fire and nearly obliterating my militia cavalry, the Winged hussars finally rout. Get out of my town, you bastards! Oh wait, there's more. That's the Termina Division in the distance, shooting at some people. Hmm, these guys look like perfect bait for the Melon Cutterz. CHARGE! Harhar, they're still reloading. AAAARGGGHH For some reason, the Sharpshooters take plenty of losses, but then the Melon Cutterz started dying....and dying....and dying.... Last polish unit, I believe. Well that was a somewhat exciting battle. Not for the Spiky Gitz, but yeah. This ship shall be named Persuasion. Where Intimidation fails, a forceful Persuasion will do the trick. I also manage to nab a Rocket Ship. Upgrading my economy. A new town emerges in Morocco! Alright guys, let's keep marching to the Ottoman territories. Hooray, new firing drill. Aww man. New guy. He's a noob. New units! Order Grenadier Guards. Check out that fucking defense. it's over 20! Order Infantry Guards. Shit melee stats....same as regular line infantry, but the shooting stats look godly. Egypt is ours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acacia Sgt Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Well, congratulations, the African territories are ours! I think... I'm missing one by chance of anything? Go White Base, blast those Zeon battleships! And lol, but has France actually kicked the Spanish out of Europe?

White Base is pretty reliable....as long as nothing is shooting at it. Well that's what the Ships of the Line are for. Actually France is gone. The orange color is actually the United Provinces (the Dutch). The main players right now are the Ottomans, The Mughal Empire, Poland-Lithuania, Russia, and the United provinces. Sweden and Great Britain are locked on their islands. I'm finally glad I unlocked the Order's more powerful (and more decorated) guard units. Perhaps they may serve as rivals to the Marksboyz?

IGdood Posted May 8, 2011 Author Share Posted May 8, 2011 Hello, been busy catching up on my notes and beating Portal 2. Anyways, here's an update. This is one big Ottoman fleet. We'll sink it. Spreading out my fleet. Let's see what direction they take. That's the rocket ship. Let's see what it can do. Indefatigable (recently mentioned in my Life Science lecture, it's one of the Galapagos islands ) and White Base move up. Change facing! Rockets at sea are much, MUCH more dangerous than rockets on land. I have no idea why. A rocket that explodes even remotely near a ship will either kill 20-30 of the crew or set it on fire or both. Main battle line engaged, let's move White Base..... The first Ottoman ship is already at breaking point. I thought 4th rates were actually dangerous. I guess not. White base finds a good firing position. Rockets hammer the Ottoman fleet from afar, while Intimidation and Persuasion are somewhere else hammering their line. They just keep coming. I just realized that our ships seem pretty experienced. I have Intimidation turn around so the good hull will be facing the cannons. Now I'm a bit worried. It's getting crowded, and if one of those ships explode near any of mine..... FUCK Don't you dare rout on me. Whoa. Indefatigable did not rout. Small privateer probes around for a gap. I'm moving the Heavy First Rate away from the enemy ships...just in case. FUCK. Okay, so that explosion wasn't so close. Also, White Base did it. The Ottoman fleet has been ground down. Steamship chases the last one....and makes it explode. 2 Ottoman full-stacks. Should I wait for them to attack, or should I be the one attacking? Well, let's do this. What the hell, is there a sandstorm going on? Ottomans shifting... Let's keep moving, INCOMING! Fucking Organ guns! (as in organ pipes) Weather is ultra hot, so troops are mostly fatigued by the time they get to Otto.. Enemy Cairo Guard, open fire! ANGRY MARINES. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-VOLLEY Heheh they flee. Light dragoons, open fire! Whoa what happened here? FUCK RIFLES CUUUUUUUUT FAITH IS MY SHIELD - melon cutter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted May 8, 2011 Author Share Posted May 8, 2011 Initial charge kills about half of the enemy riflemen. And the cuirassiers proceed to cut up some howitzer crew. Winded Order Cavalry continue to gallop to the enemy's rear. Aesir run down a few enemies. Then I catch someone shooting at the Melon Cutterz. Knowing nothing better, CHARGE Enemy melee infantry incoming! These order militia probably won't make it. Avon Gate foot, make ready! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH Unfortunately not that many enemies die since the cuirassiers are so tired. MARINES, CHARGE Cavalry hurry the fuck up! YAAAARGH MATEY Aesir charge first. Followed by the Spiky Gitz. Over the course of about 20 seconds, about half of the Aesir get bayonetted, so I pull them back. JAGUAR SQUAD GET OVER HERE. SHOOT DAMMIT SHOOT. They manage to shoot one guy. Finally, these ottomans run. Meeeeh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IGdood Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 Basically. And the units feel fairly uniform. Although in this I can claim an individual unit rather than all of a certain kind, can't I? Indeed. Uniform? Well yeah..everyone has a gun..... almost everyone. Get out of my fucking territory. Hoping for a better kill-death ratio here. I am NOT going to make units run until absolutely necessary. Militiaman: So......hoooooot. Marksboy: Want me to carry you with my bayonet? Notice that I ungrouped my artillery from everyone else. Reason is because units in groups move at the speed of the slowest unit in that group. Hmm...that sand dune up there is blocking movement. Splitting up the lads. Shooting cavalry. Jaguar squad runs and shoots. (It's okay, they're resistant to heat fatigue.) Repelling cavalry with a square formation never really gets old. I noticed Jaguar Squad is dropping quickly. Then I spotted Nizam Cedit riflemen sniping them in the distance. Crap. And on the other side people are shooting. Yeah. I believe this is a good reason to start running. Quick overview of what's going on. The Ottomans have committed all their troops to my right flank. Everyone at the left can't really do much. Flank attack! Did I mention that those swords look really long? Except a quarter of the Cuirassiers smash into the Avon Gate Foot, butchering some of them. Trolled. Furetchen was not pleased. But as long as the enemy routs, it's okay right? Get those damn mortars! Enemy general spotted. Termina and Jaguar open fire. Well he doesn't die, but he routs. Termina dodges a shot of quicklime. Preparing to surround the remaining Ottoman forces. Ah yes, the Melon Cutterz are busy somewhere cutting down routers. Here I think Jaguar Squad is shooting at something that the Termina Division is charging at. Keep firing. Don't let up! Shooting down soldiers who have lost their will to fight is pretty nice. Like hunting. Heh, why are they running in the other direction? Whoa, what happened to your number? Win. The numbers look a lot better now. General Spinelli has a bonus fighting against Ottomans harharhar. Hooray, shortened carbines. Not like I use dragoons much anyways, but it will unlock a unit that you folks may like..... Next off, a crusade to Jerusalem. Let's put this place under siege. What the fuck? Fuck you Georgia. And fuck you, Persia, for not siding with me in this war. Yes, I HAVE been working on conquering lands in the Americas. Hispaniola is one of those islands. Well, let's do this. I hate it when I can't see anything. Let's move the cavalry to the back. Riflemen? Shouldn't be a problem. Marksboyz marking a mark on some cavalry. Whoa did those ottomans just gallop past? And straight at my light dragoons. Perfect...... PROTIP: Always charge with more than one cavalry unit to break enemy morale. 3 is overkill, but fucking awesome. Rifle fire from afar....I think I'll just charge them. PROTIP: Rifles take significantly longer to reload than muskets, so let them shoot. Then charge. Because someone was using grenade launchers on the Avon Gate Foot I order them to charge. (And possibly die in droves) And indeed they do die in droves whilst canister shot is pouring at foes and Native Warriors are moving up to support the Avon Gate Foot (and dying in droves also) Light Dragoons, FIRE! Avon Gate foot is wavering... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 Axe generic - We must save our Avon Gate Brothers! Shit, 200 Buccaneers barely took out half of this unit. Are these elite guards or something? I'd shit my pants and run if most of my unit were dead too. Send in the cavalry! Melon Cutterz smash into the Nizam Cedits SURPRISE SURPRISE 2 Win. Notice that the melee infantry were cut to bits. Poor, poor buccaneers. However, I did find out something interesting about the experience mechanics of Empire Total War. The game will store information about the total number of men killed and total number of losses received for each unit, so units who have taken huge losses won't have their exp drop by a frightening amount. Palestine is ours. Now we hold this territory. Swimming in money? Barely, Replenishing units is a slow and expensive process. Aww man. AWW MAN. Uh oh.
