Re: Legion Arena walkthrough
They easily have enough punch for the first half of the campaign, or a bit longer; that is the strategy I use on GBOR when Auxilia are not available until very late. (I have reached 1,144,620 in Legion Arena, and 1,137,xxx in GBOR; of course I both use pincushions shamelessly and as decoys; and re-...

Re: Legion Arena walkthrough
Hi Aleksandr, A thought for your campaigns: start with two Scouts instead of one Auxilia. While your auxilia will get almost no experience during the first few battles, the scouts can rapidly be raised to level 5 or 6, becoming useful until very late in the campaign. Pieter I've already thought of ...

Re: Legion Arena completed without a single battle lost
I've made it through Messana, but I'm a little bit fed up with the campaign, namely because I can't use the army that I'd like to, and also because I bleed fame like there's no tomorrow. I'm not sure what to do. I may finish the cam, but it's too painful.

Re: Legion Arena completed without a single battle lost
I won't annoy you with a complete and battle-by-battle AARs, most of the battles are fairly easy and/or unimportant. I'll stop just at the important or tricky scenarios, and I'll also share some ideas, etc. Imho it'll be enough if I'll post some news after each minicampaign only... THE FIRST TRY: 1)...

Legion Arena completed without a single battle lost
As you might noticed, I'm a quite crazy when it comes to Legion Arena. After finishing the campaigns for lots of times with lots of different cores and lots of different tactics/compositions/skills, I decided that I really MUST achieve one last goal - make it through the whole campaign without a sin...

Re: End of Game Army Composition
If I should name one really annoying scenario, than Lingering Gauls would surely win the price.

Re: End of Game Army Composition
Messana... And I'm seriously pissed, because it was after the time limit and I needed just nine more suckers, but before the Archers shot the salvo, Legate had died. EDIT: Another one bites the dust!

Re: End of Game Army Composition
I've tried another all-light composition and was at Lautulae, but restarded the whole thing because of several reasons. a) I really wish to make a "no-loss" run. b) I've realized a very strange thing. Although it is nice how the light squads' healing cost nearly nothing, there could be far...

Re: End of Game Army Composition
Hi Possum, I just saw a classic example of what I described above. Playing Ausculum, i had maneuvred some of my velites north of Phyrrus's heavy infantry, on the rough-terrain ridge, when time ran out. As the heavies routed throught the velites, a handful of horseshoes popped out. The velites had o...

Re: Legion Arena walkthrough
Caeser's Gallic War (the thirteenth minicampaign): Do I count it right? Nevermind... Battle of Bibracte is a perfect opportunity for a massive experience hunt. The enemy is totally static and his units are weak, so lets make this a turkey shooting. After all, our Archers need some levels. Therefore...

Re: Scenario Editing
Aleksandr, I looked at this issue a long time ago, and decided that using an existing scenario structure was the course of least resistance. IIRC the maplocks are ugly. I don't suggest messing with any of the three .txt files in the DB directory. You''re right, 40 scenarios is a lot. I took them in...
