IGdood Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 Hey guys, I'm going to put this LP on hold. I'm not sure what's up with my computer with all this freezing. However, there could be a sequel one of these days......in the form of either Napoleon Total War or Shogun 2 Total War, which should be much more stable. Sorry for the inconvenience, apologies to everyone, especially to Acacia and eclipse, who barely saw any action... In the meantime, I have something else planned..... it should be awesome, I hope.

IGdood Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 I found a rather epic vid showcasing all melee animations in this game. I thought you guys might like to watch it. Choice of music sucked though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) So um...you guys gave picked Empire Total War (hoping it doesn't crash!!!). So, should I just start afresh? Continue my USA campaign? If I have to continue the USA campaign should I rebuild it until where we left off and then start posting pics or just reset it? So, just to reiterate some faction choices that I'll be willing to do: United Provinces - Dutch, starts off in a rather weak position and will probably rely on colonies for income instead of pissing off the other European nations. Maratha Confederacy or Mughal Empire - Archaic technology, relies more on bow, arrow, sword than muskets and cannon. Units are generally cheaper and inferior compared to European ones. Ottoman Empire - See above, but more technologically advanced. Less bows, more guns. Sweden - Most Cavalry units are somewhat larger in number compared to everyone else, otherwise will probably see more naval action. USA - Tends to love light infantry, cavalry, regular infantry, and elites tend to suck compared to those of other nations, which is historically correct. Mod downloads have unlocked a lot of Native American units for the US. Knights of St. John - Starts off on one tiny island, no university to do research, and a pitiful income. Basically if I want to turn the LP into a suicide then I can play as these guys. They're descendants of the Knights Hospitaller from the Crusades, but now they're just mortal enemies with the Barbary Pirates. Personally I'm having a hard time picking USA or Knights of St. John.

General Herpus Derpus Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Usa, Change government to Absolute Monarchy(Through Revolution) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) Change government to absolute monarchy? LOL. Sure. That'll enable more "guard" level units for my armies. Edited April 16, 2011 by skitarii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 It's back! AHAHAHAHAH! *cough* Uh, United Provinces sound interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) USA: 1 United Provinces: 1 Needs MOAR votes, maybe I should set up a poll? Edit: I set up a poll. GET VOTING. Edited April 16, 2011 by skitarii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Herpus Derpus Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Voted. Also is it normal for 1784 in the RTI campaign the british have ferguson rifles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGdood Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 It is, but as long as you can get them in melee, they shouldn't last long. Heck even Provincial Cavalry can screw over Ferguson Rifles. Just don't let them shoot, or else they'll just rapid fire. USA starts off with not a lot of tech, while the Brits pretty much can steamroll you if they bothered to. Generally you should go take out your frustrations on the Natives, and then when you think you've teched up enough and have enough armies you can go march against the British.

Provincal cav will rout after the first volley, if not the second Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just try your best. Hey, you're reviving this? Cool... Voted USA to have my dragoon divisions back... *shot* Hope to have a successful revival, if it doesn't start crashing on me again. And alright....but I'm limiting everyone to 2 units. God dammit I was gonna Get dem guys. Well, aside from dragoons, we also have mounted riflemen and mounted grenadiers (no grenades)....

General Herpus Derpus Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Meh Rifles it is. I could use some in RTI Brits spawned 18 units of rangers in 1 turn . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Voted United Provinces, but if we end up with St. John I'll probably end up naming them after various regiments in my O&G~ ...Hell, if we get any melee cavalry I'll probably name 'em after my Big 'Unz.

IGdood Posted April 17, 2011 Author Share Posted April 17, 2011 Meh Rifles it is. I could use some in RTI Brits spawned 18 units of rangers in 1 turn . And there's still 2 units of Dragoons who haven't been claimed. 18 rangers in 1 turn? Dang. Cavalry time. By the way, you can throw out names since in Empire you can actually name your units. Voted United Provinces, but if we end up with St. John I'll probably end up naming them after various regiments in my O&G~ ...Hell, if we get any melee cavalry I'll probably name 'em after my Big 'Unz. Probably will end up USA again with the current number of votes, heheh. East Gruen Foot Guard and Charcatra Foot will see action again, it would seem. As for melee cavalry.....not a lot, but there will be some, if the dragoons don't take over their jobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they'll learn to shoot straight, given that they're named after battalions of swordsmen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewjeo Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Hm, I don't really care who you play as. Ae you planning on starting up a new thread for this or will you just use this one?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
