I say only one thing,.. Boehmian Knights..

You gotta share more then just that Bro. You know when it comes to strat. games, your opinion means alot to this casual player.

I've gotta get warhammer back from my son in law this year.

Stephen

seeing you've played War Hammer, Have you played Dawn Of War? I just got the gold edition for X-Mas and I am sold!! I need to get the Dark Crusade expansion.

I actually got a chance to try out ME2 and I must say, I might have to pick this one up if World in conflict gets delayed.

Yes, it meets the minimum requirements. I think it may have something to do with the graphics chipset (It uses a Mobile Intel 945 Express chipset). I have the graphics settings on the lowest possible settings and still nothing happens when I try to load a battle.

The game is Nvidia optimized,..could very well be the case what you are suspecting.

wow, those are some pretty sweet screens but righ now I'm really into Dawn of War.

I'm just breaking into the winter assault campaign stuff. I'm really loving Eldars but I'm wanting the new expainsion for the Necrons

An Eldar unit of mine. Love the paint option.

That would be the Agincourt scenario wouldn't it?

I love the game, I just wish the grand campaign wasn't so...I don't know what the word is.. it's horribly hard to manage a large empire in the latter part of the game... Spend as much time putting down rebellions as conquering neighbors.. and the AI isn't very good at managing large numbers of towns.

I'm finding I prefer the "short scenario" victory conditions.

Dracho · « **Reply #30 on:** January 20, 2007, 06:07:55 pm »

Here is one where England Rheims France (snicker)..

Dracho · « **Reply #31 on:** January 20, 2007, 07:59:55 pm »

This one is "The Price of Rebellion" or maybe Roast Peasant.

IAF Lyrkiller · « **Reply #32 on:** January 20, 2007, 08:43:26 pm »

Yeah, I do love it when they flame on.

IAF Lyrkiller · « **Reply #33 on:** January 22, 2007, 12:09:38 am »

Oh yeah, I forgot to add that I have gotten Dizzy and Diehard hooked on Medieval 2: Total War.

FPF-DieHard · « **Reply #34 on:** January 23, 2007, 11:27:42 am »

Dracho, how did you get 120 Bowmen in a unit? Mine are limited to 60.

IAF Lyrkiller · « **Reply #35 on:** January 23, 2007, 11:45:30 am »

DH, I think that it is through upgrades for the archers, though I could be wrong.

This game runs Excellent in "Medium settings at 1600x1024 on my Sager 3880 laptop (2 GHz Pentium M, 1 GB RAM, Geoforce 6600 Go)

Do English knights just suck? I need to know if it's me but al they seem to be good for is chasing routed troops.

There is a slider for unit size under the performance options.

The Mounted ones aren't great- the English foot knight upgrade are fantastic ground troops though.
~ Really though, just build archer units with a few guys to stall the enemy long enough for the archers to kill them.
