I've stabilized myself as the WRE in a total war-mode hard run (declaring war on every faction at turn 1, and never signing peace with anyone, ever).

Once you fortify the Alpine border cities, it's a piece of cake. If you position your armies right, the AI usually won't even bother to attack the cities, and you only need one stack in southern Italy to push back naval landings.

Once Italy gets wealthy enough, you can afford more stacks to go out reconquering Africa and Hispania. It's not too difficult.

Actually, mine usually don't.

It's annoying. I started playing the Ebdanians because I saw them completely burning down my settlement and thought it would be fun, but 90% of the time I leave units with the raider trait (which is more than half of my army by now) around buildings, they just sit there doing nothing.

keep your troops as far from their archers as you can while keeping them in the castle to trick their archers into climbing
wasy win from there, your katana samurai will chew them up bad
>>
>>123846562
If you lose it yeah you are. It's worth a shot though, the ai might have one of its retarded moments that you can take advantage of.
I think your best bet would be to sit under the castle with everything and then mass charge the enemy as they climb up one by one, using shock to break their shitty morale.
>>
>>123846305
your probably fucked, although its mainly because of the light cav

their yari ashi shouldnt pose a problem because of yours own infantry, but their archers will fuck you with such a small castle.

you could try using your 2nd general to bait their archers/infantry around to fight the enemy piecemeal, I think they will have too many generals to do that, and if they set the light cav on you your general is all sorts of fucked.

other thing is maybe try using your yari sam to sally forth and kill the enemy general or light cav depending on how the enemy deploys

Steam page strongly implies Vikings, Saxons, and Muslims will be playable. And of course Charlemagne.

English will also be playable no doubt, and one of the Celts is very likely, given that we have 10 fucking factions of them.

6/8

Fuck if I know which of the other interesting possibilities, Lombardy, Asturias, Byzicily, and the Avars, will make it in. I'm guessing Lombardy and the Avars.

Desert Spears are pretty good for pushing into a city after you weaken the defenders with siege and archers, also work well against cav on their own. Elite T'or Warriors are good for the flanks. Afar Swordsman and the Armored Camel Warriors are going to be the focus of your stacks, though, at least until you can replace the Swordsman with Kushite Shotelai and Spice Guards.
>>
>>123860091
All of those you mentioned are in the game.

The removal of family trees is another of the great features they kept from Rome 2, and they are continuing with the fantastic tradition of having pre-order factions. Now I know what you're thinking. "but anon won't that make TWW a lazy copy paste of R2?"

Well not all features are kept my friend. After listening to their fans CA has decided to remove features such as naval battles, the ability to dismount for cavalry, special banner carriers and of course the notoriously hated 40 unit battle.

All in all TWW is shaping up to be a great game and I for one have preordered the collector's edition for its beautiful and yet very practical drinking horn and fashionable dwarven ring!

>>
>>123851965

Well, yeah. They were pillagers, not actual armies. Your average viking from Kalmar Unionen was just an armored up peasant who had basic training in long boats and combat, but no official army. Scandinavia didn't really have any big military presence until the Danes in the medieval ages, and then much later, Gustav II Adolf/Carolus Rex from Sweden.

That collage is full of shit though. It's just filled with battles with filled with christian propaganda.

Yeah great as in 300-500 being defeated by a numerically superior force while away from home. The same "army" that defeated the anglo-saxons most of the time. Also all them battles with vikings having christians allies kek.

Norse romanticism is annoying and cringeworthy, but so is this new reactionary anti-viking movement that has sprung up. And the movement is being led by "internet christians" whose favourite holy book is called Google.

>their "grand armee" numbers a grand total of 500 soldaten

I think that speaks for itself.

>>123863159
That info is right after and probably closely related to:

>As mentioned at EGX, there will be the opportunity to unlock/earn/steal Magic Banners for your armies. However, it’s worth pointing out that these will be indicated in battle through a gloriously (or disgustingly, depending on your race) embellished banner indicator above the unit who has it equipped.

So I wonder if it's these kinds of standard bearers they are talking about and not generic ones.

Though if they are talking about generic standard bearers, then that really sucks. I don't really get how that can take a lot of time and money to design. I really hope unit captains are still in.
>>
>>123863724
it says right there that banners will simply be indicated in the regular banner indicator. There won't be any soldiers bearing standards.

The native americans are weak as fuck. If you want to win you have to change the way you play(Focus guerrilla, ambush and shit). They don't have navies, so you will be invaded by sea from places you don't expect.

Also, you have to finish the campaign fast. The europeans powers, and the US, start with a few troops but if the game drags on they will attack you with lots of full stacks. Since Native americans are weak, a full european stack is more than capable of fucking shit up. So you can still lose even when you're a few turns from victory.

TL;DR: It's a masochist campaign that will make you rage.
