Its no joke whats a joke is that we all bought this game . Been playing this off and on hoping it gets better but I have to say . No it doesn't . Pretty looking game but that is about it all hype for a bad game just Like FOG . oh wait same rules dev same rerun of bad concept. please Richard Bodley S...

poop

I find that the maneuverability of so troops is not easy to get used to who they can and cant charge seems complicated . funny I love reading about this period but I just don't enjoy this game so far , Guess I just don't get it .Doesn't seem like anybody has open invites to battle unlike some of the...

Sorry My keyboard died mid way through my response . I only meant that I don't feel I really am surprised by the AI ( which given the nature of the set piece battle is not surprising . What I am surprised by is How good the Turkish troops are head to head I have a small advantage in hand to hand but...

Well did what you suggested maneuvered to the flank charged with the Cuirassier (sorry sp) bought later Tericos charged when I could and guess what still lost ,. I had an average janissary unit cut through a average pike block and rout them I find it weird that my infantry refuse to charge Cavalry a...

I am playing large battles later Spanish vs Ottomans ,I can maneuver to a flank but frankly The amount of cavalry I have is just overwhelmed after being shot to bits by the turks ( I flanks with infantry and cav ) chase the lights away then the above average bow cav just shoot my men down in droves ...

I find that is a random battle the turks cannot seem to be beaten the "great Pike blocks just get shot down in droves .Manuvering to either side of the entrenchment to force the ai to move doesn't help either each shot of average troops by the turks brings 20 dead while I get 5-12 it seems a me...

Well I didn't really like the combat system of FOG and was hoping to like this more ... I think systems like this make the combat too random for me There is no sense at all and seems that a combat between units is utterly random.(not based on moral equipment etc) I can have a unit flanked and out nu...

I love the subjects that you guys pick for games (panzer corps) field of glory but the combat mechanisms suck . They make no sense at all light skirmish infantry in the open in field of glory taking two hvy infantry and a cav and a skirmisher before they rout (they were average unprotected ) that ha...

No , no offensive spear option . I just wish I could take (0) of them . you have to take 2 (wtf) 2 is beyond dumb at least make them PLAYABLE , tHIS LIST NEEDS SOME WORK, To look historical all the cav suddenly switch to lance and you have not enough native knights available . The infantry options a...

I have a new hate yes its the Varangian Guard just a big disappointment really They die slow but so what I wish I could take 0 of them the Alexios i komnenos list is a bit of a stinker just enough stuff to be ineffective . I love the idea od Varangians but they never seem to be enough or effective e...

What is the difference between beta and te current version ? Are you still trying to get feed back for beta ?

Thanks for the advice ,

So here is my experience tonight , I am playing Cynoscephalae in one example I have an average pike up hill from an average Triarii ( smooth hill) this is not impact combat this is melee (impact the romans took 3% loss I took 3%) this time I take 12% and he takes 4% so a yeah I think its not me its ...

I guess not i have read the wiki several times , Maybee its the style of play the pike armies have but i will keep playing . No offense intended

I have been playing with mainly successor style armies / romans / Carthaginians , for about 50 battles or so , What I find so frustrating for a successor player is the lack of "punch " with the pike units . Two units both steady on even ground and the first attacker is penalized big time s...

Elephants yep love the way they look but they suck , I also don't care for Cataphract's slow and no impact . I much like lancer cav better . cats cant be used against main inf line or cav they die slow but don't really contribute ( defense wing maybe ) Elephants not worth the points, slow, die to ev...

hi there newbie successor army commander here . Is there rear support for pikes ( if supported from behind ) I never see the support icon come up in game . Is this just a waste of a unit ? Thanks for the advice
