Isabella and Nefereta. Isabella in the tabletop only shows up with vlad, so if she does show up she would be with him. However, the faction in game will likely focus on the van carsteins, so nefereta probably won't be in the game. Best case scenario is she is some kind of flc in the future.

>>122791573
The timeline is it happens before the End Times. There is not going to be a "starting date" there will not be dates in the game itself. It is possible that they will allow characters that aren't suppose to exist alongside others due to time constraints to do so. Making it very much like the table top.

how embarassing
>>
Hey guys just got Napoleon total war and never played one of these games before. I'm playing the Prussian campaign and doing pretty well military wise but am kind of lost on the whole global aspect.

I keep getting rebellions and it recommends I should change my government type. How do I do that? Also, what kind of units and strategy are the Prussians good at? Their skirmishers seem really good, especially the jaegers, and the line infantry with fire and advance are awesome too, but I feel my other units are lackluster performance wise. Maybe I'm just using them wrong. It feels like I have a far more elite but smaller army most of the time. Most battles have been 3:1 in their favor and I still win handily.

Final question. Is there a way to increase the musketeers range? I'm slightly outranged by other line infantry and its annoying.
>>
>>122794870
Huns are broken as fuck. Playing the WRE and mostly being on the defensive, my garrisons (sometimes with small armies) could obliterate 4 armies of different kinds of barbars with few losses just by standing on walls with crossbowmen and shit raining death. Meanwhile, on my most heavily fortified city with an entire full stack garrisoned inside, mongols would always put up a hell of a fight that I almost lost at times - not even because of morale, but sheer numbers. Even their infantry is fucking strong as shit.

>>122811897
The more I think about it, the more East Asia total war set during the 1200s would seriously be a good title. There’s a lot of parallels that can be drawn to Rome 2’s factions.

Southern Song Dynasty = Macedon
Taking Sino/Chinese culture as the equivalent to the Hellenic/Greek culture.

Jurchen Jin Dynasty = Parthia
Cavalry dominant, but can eventually field decent infantry.

Mongols = Saka/Sauromatae/Scythia
Horse archer spam incarnate. Alternatively may also be seen as Rome because they’re the “winners"

Western Xia/Tanguts = Seleucids
While it’s a mishmash of Chinese and Tangut/Steppe culture, but more Chinese. Seleucids are an Eastern-Hellenic hybrid, but more Hellenic.

Western Liao/Kara Khitan = Pontus
Chinese and Steppe culture mishmash, but more Steppe. Pontus is an Eastern-Hellenic hybrid but more Eastern.

Tibet = Armenia
Mountain kingdom, some of the heaviest cavalry of the Far East second to the Jin Dynasty (Armenian vs Parthian Cataphracts) but limited.

Genpei Japan = Epirus/Illyrians/Odrysian Kingdom/Dacians
Epirus because some Chinese influence, Illyrians because of as wako pirates raiding the lands to their west, and Odrysian because of their obsession with 2-handed polearms such as the naginata, which is like the Thracians with their rhomphaia. Dacians because their yumi bows aren’t that bad, but not stellar. Same can be said of the Dacians’ horse archery and foot archers. Also falxes.

Goryeo Kingdom = Bosphorus
Located in the north, Chinese-influenced. Tends to get invaded by nomads to the north. The Chinese once said that the Koreans had the best foot archers.

Southeast Asians = Celtics and Germanics and Iberian barbars
They’re relatively lighter in equipment, utilize javelins and falcata-like swords, and lack siege equipment and navies.

Dai Viet = Massalia
Southeast Asian faction with Chinese cultural influence.

Dali Kingdom = Colchis
Chinese-like mountain faction, but generally fields light troops
>>
>>122812140
Muslims need fronts, though. While they infiltrate society to slowly push their way of thinking, they have some of their "True Muslims" make terrorist organizations. That way, the muslims can continue to claim "We aren't like them! We're the TRUE MUSLIMS!" while still being able to be violent.

Once a front is destroyed, then there will be some time when the world is at peace and until the Muslims can create a new one.

"Spade" DLC was the nickname for Wrath of Sparta campaign.

"Paperclip" DLC was the nickname for Caesar in Gaul.

Sandalwood sounds like a campaign DLC. Sandalwood relates to Britain 1500 years into the future with India. It could be a Britannia campaign on a more detailed British Isles map.

I think this Aksum game is going to go well. I still got to deal with the stack that is approaching my provincial capital, as well as worry about the Sassanids, but I think I'm good.

Anybody know a good guide or faq type thing for a newbie to use while playing Napoleon total war.

Never played a total war game before or these civ type games in general so there's a lot that doesn't really make sense, like trying to put down rebellions without resorting to brute force.

The reasoning was that if an armed force was garrisoned in a city, they tended to run amok and cause problems, which would culminate over time. Not to mention extended periods of time exposed to the populous formented rebellion in the army. Instead you either have them patrol (I.E. actually doing useful stuff instead of lazing around and raping peasants) in order to get the bonus.

In actuallity it's to try and reduce the player from putting their armies in garrisons to withstand better forces, and force more field battles.

Shogun 2: Battles are fought like in Medieval, but it uses the Empire engine, so it's closer to an Empire Total War battle as Mughals against Marathras.

The Expansion (Fall of the Samurai) is what Napeolon SHOULD have been. Glorious matchlock and artillery combat.

Well, I only played it after launch but didn't try the Empire Edition too much yet, which supposed to have all the patches and everything, so maybe the weird performance issues are fixed. Although the delay to display units information was still there.

Now the UI … it's just messed up in every possible way. From battles to campaign, an UI mod would make it at least somehow tolerable for me.

I don't expect the AI to be fixed or anything.

But that's wrong. FOTS is ages ahead technologically, and it translates - both artillery and firearms are WAY deadlier since it's much faster and more accurate, and bringing the fight to an infantry charge (which was nearly always decisive in a napoleonic era engagement) is almost impossible.

Most likely just a hook with an adjustable grip (so you tighten it around an object to hold, loose it to release and such). Very basic, but very plausible.

Not sure, but let's say he's cut below the elbow - it's a tight fitted hollow structure so the stump fits in without much wiggle room, then some straps/belts around shoulder and chest (I'd assume it depends on the height of the stump).

Shogun 2, Rome 2, or Attila? And why?
>>
>>122877317
Oh, you're back? I though you fucked off for real.
>>
>>122877428

Shogun 2 for maximum comfy.

Napoleon for maximum swag and dem line battles.

Empire for, well, huge scale, I just wish it ran smoother.

FotS for the most fun you'll ever have with gunpowder warfare.

In summary, I don't have a favourite.
>>
>>122877428
Attila overall. Really wish there was a Medieval 3 though, it's my favorite setting but I can't fucking play 2 now, it feels way too unresponsive and buggy.
>>
>>122877428
I swing a lot (mostly because my interest in historical periods does as well)

Napoleon is probably consistently my favorite TW game, I love the setting and find the game fun as fuck, plus in some aspects is probably the most tactical one

Shogun 2 is great but I find the campaign a little lacking, FotS is even better but I can't stop cheesing the AI

Attila is pretty great, Rome 2 is good but a little barebones and kind of dead on the water, as soon as some more Attila mods (like AE) is out it'll be completely useless

I have high hopes their next non-Warhammer title should learn a lot from the blunders of Rome 2 and what in Attila was an improvement
