Are they French Armies? or French rebels?

IF they're rebels, destroy the university, exempt region from tax and leave an army in Paris for a few turns.

If they are French armies, go find there other regions and capture them.

Should always have a plan for that.

ME:TW 2 if you were playing the Brits, short of taking control of most of the map you had to send a large navy bearing a decent army to Jerusalem.


Works best if it's a crusader army for the cheap units.

Buying them ain't like the Louisiana Purchase. It could cost you as much as losing a trading partner.

I made a thread at the total war centre forums which lists what I wanted changed in MP. (but don't expect it will be)

http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=240739

There is no game lobby.

You can't chat to selective players in game. Or your allies.

You can't chat to "team mates only" in the game setup. Or even just selected players when creating your army.

There is no army information when you hover the mouse over a unit that tells you who is in control of that army.

Worse, you can't tell if it is an AI player now in control once a player has left or been dropped. You have to remember who was in control of what army. In a game of up to 8 people, not possible.

We can't host 1v7, 2v6, 1v3 etc battles any more. You are stuck at 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 or 4v4.

You can't choose an integer for the amount of money you have. Just medium or large.

All of this is a step backwards compared to Medieval 2 and Rome.

I never thought MP would be worse than what gamespy offered in terms of servers, but this is a half finished game in terms of a MP experience.

Do you expect any of this to be fixed with a patch?

If you have more than one trading partner and you kill off one of them the other/others will take over the trade ...

I'm noticing a trend in Empire. Like campaign time, other good things come to an end way too quickly.

Activate pirate music final form...

I spend 30 minutes in a solo battle vs a bunch of ships in solo mode, I sink or blow up all but one. I demast it...suddenly, it asks me if I want to continue playing!

Uh, yes.

So I get some more time. Let's see an epic pirate victory in boarding the last enemy vessel! After all, what fun is a pirate fight if there's no loot? Hulls clank together...Heroic Victory!

Back to the main menu.

...

NOT FUCKING AGAIN!

...

I understand it when the enemy armies have pretty much fled beyond your range, but at sea they keep cutting out the sweet bits of the fight. It's my computer and my game, so why does it keep deciding when to end things for me?

Epic fail.

Up next: mod time...

It decides when the enemy ship surrenders or sinks. If they are routing you can still attack.

Pirates don't accept surrender so I agree you should be able to play until you think you are done

When the battle is still in progress, you can still attack enemies that are surrendering or routing. As long as there is an enemy vessel left on the water, it shouldn't jerk you back to the menu if you elect to continue playing.

They should have it set up so that it asks you to quit when you have won as it does now, then it leaves the option to quit whenever you want via a button after that point if you elect to keep playing.

Finished my first GC yesterday as the British and got the victory sequence

Last 35 rounds or so I was totally alone in 3 theaters and the supreme commander of the world ... no fun actually when you have none to fight, think I'll go for a short campaign next game as the Ottomans perhaps or maybe do the Road to Independence ...

Anyone played online games yet?
