They have their uses in pursuit and thanks to their skills in using spears in melee, they are also the bane of light infantry. These Asiatikoi horsemen represent a light, but versatile unit well able to skirmish and to perform screening duties. May be.Īnd now.time for muh history writeups because I really like this.Īsiatikoi Hippakontistai (Eastern Light Cavalry) Perhaps there will be an expansion pack in the future?įuture plan: I plan on doing a LP of XCOM: Enemy Within when it is released November 15, assuming Integrity isn't going to do it. I hope you at least enjoyed the LP somewhat. I also apologize if I didn't get your favorite legion on camera I honestly did not think of recording until the blood and gore DLC pack was announced. There is fun to be had, but it was not the fun one was hyped for by trailers. I was originally going to give the game a 5.5/10, but I think I can give it a 7/10 now. Sega will never let modders touch and edit the game on that level (Rome 1 was published by Activision).

However, Rome 1 had something that Rome 2 most likely will never have: Great overhaul mods that dwell deep into the game and change it fundamentally from the ground up.

I'm not saying Rome 1 is good, because honestly at release Rome 1 was kind of shit with hyperspeed battles and even after the patches it was still at SONIC-levels. If they can get the siege AI right then I think there's a passably decent game on our hands.Ī lot of people compare Rome 2 to Rome 1 and I hold a rather unpopular opinion. However, I do like how in the span of 2 months since its release, 5 going on 6 patches were released to fix a lot of the bugs and the game is decently fun.

The release was quite buggy and had a lot of features cut out and which were previously advertised. The garrison was small so I just autoresolved it.Īside from the client states, we now own all the 's over.Ĭonclusion: Rome 2 Total War didnt quite live up to the hype that Sega's expert marketing branch generated. The last 2 screenshots showed the last non-allied settlement being conquered. I was surprised the Plebs didn't die outright when facing elite German swordmaster units. The fourth battle shows Adeptus Serenus clearing out a settlement. I thought I'd get some action with elephants and chariots, but unfortunately the enemy AI sent all their troops at the laddermen I initially sent. Missile troops stayed on their ships to provide fire support from the waters. The second battle shows a coastal navy landing and taking over a somewhat well-defended rebel settlement. The reason why they are few in number is because the pathfinding AI decided that they should walk through cold forests and thus incur attrition damage. The first battle details a typical Capitoline Brigade style siege assault, with massive engines of war just bombing the shit out of defenders and the infantry do clean up.
