How does the computer opponent handle the wagon when using or fighting against it? Does it prioritise attacking it? It looks extremely tough and I’m worried it will be too easy to exploit it’s benefits against a cpu army.

I wish there was a way to alter the saturation, I find the brightly coloured units in Ancients and from what I've seen of Medieval to be to unrealistic. I know it's a tabletop simulation but these guys may have been campaigning for weeks or months with little opportunity to wash their clothes. If yo...

just wondering how armour rating is worked out for mounted units. Is it a combination of the horses armour and the riders or the rider only? For example Cataphracts are fully armoured whilst Armoured Noble Lancers are just armoured. I thought about this after seeing the screens for FOG2 Medieval whe...

Still waiting for a new FOG2 DLC.

Just saying.

Same here, 18 months since the last DLC for FOG2

I'm dubious of this claim of 'deadly as Magnum 44'. Maybe at very close range but the Magnum .44 is going to retain velocity at a greater distance and therefore kinetic energy. If they're referring to the test I've seen they are talking about momentum which is not the same, a brick thrown has a fair...

Changing weather and time of day over a campaign to give some aesthetic variation to battles. Also a slider for colour saturation, some armies can be a bit too colourful for my tastes.

I’m not sure about lowering % to win if the C-in-C is lost. Human players will target the cpu General while making sure theirs is well protected behind the front lines. Could become a bit of an exploit of the game mechanics.

How is everyone finding the AI’s stack building ability? Playing as Rome I can steamroll my neighbours as they never build a decent stack, they usually build a few weak ones that if combined would be more of a challenge to beat. Seems like the AI tries to spread its forces too thinly to cover every ...

Some nations would be unplayable if they had their FoG2 roster. FoG2 is not balanced for gameplay it just has historically accurate units which in some cases would be hard to conquer the world with.

I’m sure you can mod most parts of the game but think you need to be more specific. What advantages do you want to remove? Have you explored the file structure and tried to find what you need to edit? People tend to get more help from modders if they make an effort and not just expect everything del...

Playing a five battle campaign Franks v Andalusians I win the first battle, but my next one is to either fight at a disadvantage which I don't wish to do against the hordes of javelin cav, spearman and lancers or hold out with my rearguard. I take the second options but it is futile, I am given abou...

Yes eventually

Not saying this is a bad idea but weren't kills/casualties during the game period actually quite low during hand to hand fighting. Most kills occurred after one army broke and were run down during the rout. Until this happened it was just as much a contest of fatigue and morale.

Stockwellpete has already discussed this with me, and I have agreed to only release the new version of the TT Mod after the fifth season of the Digital League ends.

cheers

So no new release till August 11th?

I adjusted the zoom and pitch in the MAPVIEW.TXT file in the /data folder so I can easily zoom right in with the mouse wheel and move using the RMB. Make sure to backup before changing.

Anybody has the problem of downloading the standalone patch?

It shows “failed - no file” on my end.

I find it much easier to register your game then go to the Members - my products section and download updates. The in game update feature is always buggy for me.

Excuse my ignorance but who are the British 600-1030 AD? The game lists Anglo-Saxons, Irish, Scots and Welsh for the same period.

Yeah I feel the same it would open up some interesting tactical options to dismount in battle. I assume it’s not allowed for historical reasons.

Hi Paul,

The Breton javelin light horse dosen't seem to have a texture, what texture file they are supposed to use?

Just noticed the Byzantine Koursores have no bow or any other weapon in their hands, it looks a little strange.
