Total War: Rule Britannia, literally.

[The Huskar Social Union]

Man now that i think about it i would really like a new empire total war.

Aw yiss.

We need more gentlemen on the field! And more proper acts of soldiery i saw dear fellow.

I just hope they revamp some of the factions. The minor nations could get more attention, and of course the Marathas could be nerfed.

Plus some of the less developed major factions could use some buffs. Like Spain for example. Twice the units. Twice the colonial possessions. Twice the penalty for having such an inbred King.

A revamped Empire would be nice; that was one of my favorites, having dumped hundreds of hours into it to gain complete and utter mastery of the game XD. The sick man of Europe shall rise anew <,<....with the copious help of musellims.

What I always wanted to do with Empire was create new nations once you control a certain area. For instance, you’ve conquered Germany but your still only Prussia not Germany, or you’ve conquered Italy but still only Venice or Two Sicilies etc not Italy.

I hate that feature so much. It makes complete sense, but infuriates me to no end.

Ah, but I usually find if the AI was warring the folks I confederated, they're more than happy to just transfer their war to me. I almost never confederate unless I'm ready to fight the people fighting the people I'm annexing.

I have a couple of armies up north now finishing off the greenskin remnants, so if the vampires come knocking ill be ready.

I always find playing as The Empire to be far from easy, and actually seems to be the most political when dealing with other Imperial nations cause if you try and ally a certain one you anger another set and if you try and maintain good relations with all of them it never works. Is there a list out there of which state likes and dislikes which to simplify matters.

Talabecland and Wissenland are usually pretty friendly to you, as is Stirland. The rest are usually indifferent (Marienburg is often hostile, as can be Middenland) until later on and also depending on how you act towards them. Ive found being buddy with Talabecland tends to piss of Ostermark a good bit as they usually go to war.

When chaos comes around or the vampires cause enough havoc they tend to warm up more. I usually try and focus on taking over the southern half of the empire first (Wissenland, Stirland, Averland) as well as Marienburg. You can usually confederate with them one by one, and just make them your allies, or wait till they get thrashed by someone and go and in take the land. Skarsnik in the mountains tends to fuck up Wissenland a lot and captures Nuln from time to time from what ive seen in the mortal empires campaign.

Though all of this can vary from game to game, as i said it usually boils down to how you deal with them and people around them.

Almost 1 for 1 casualties, this battle was a nightmare and i just managed to win it when a routing thane came back to help my last unit of thunderers against Wurzag and his heroes who were all on a slither of health.

Fucking hate night goblin fanatics.

Also ive tried playing Shogun 2 again, but im just not feeling it now, i think im just too used to the more modern games (even though its really not that old)

The Empire’s military is somewhat confusing. They have muskets or judging by rate if fire and look, at least early post-musket rifles, cannons, mortars, and rockets which all did appear actually in the late medieval era even earlier than that actually. But then they have Steam Tanks and I find myself pondering why that was where they ended advancing technologically could’ve had steam powered cities, airships, artillery such as howitzers, railways etc.

Its like they got a small tasting of steampunk in a medieval world and then decided “No this is fine take the rest back waiter”

The empire has kind of always been like that, like their 40k counterpart they advance in tech quite slowly.

I'd been meaning to do a Colchis campaign ever since it was announced for R2; it's been going quite well on Legendary, thus far, for being considered a "difficult start," hah. Their early access to a wombo combo of hoplites and slingers means it's incredibly easy to slaughter the eastern spearmanz hordes of their neighbors, as well as obnoxious horse archers/skirmishers that may also be fielded against the Colchians. As a result, despite having initially been at war with literally all my neighbors about 15ish turns into the game, all of them having declared war on me, I was able to crush a couple of those factions while forcing the others to favorably peace out.

My current empire stretches from Thrace in the west to Baktria in the east, heh.

Lol, on Legendary, no one's friendly with the Empire. When I tried playing as them, I had all the human factions neighboring me declare war within mebbe 20 turns or so of game start. It wasn't a good time

They invented steam tanks, then the End Times happened.

Hey how many people find themselves, and this is for any total war game, build up these large but specifically composed armies to take on specific targets on the campaign with this complex strategy in their head but when war comes find they use maybe one of their armies or two for whole thing instead of the grand plan? That’s one thing they could borrow from a Paradox Game is a campaign planner so we can organize that grand strategy. Especially if they start going back to more modern or at least firearm era games.

And if they do go back to more modern era games like say an Empire Remastered or something along those lines, maybe make provinces smaller and add more small settlements and major ones. In Empire and Napoleon I always felt conquering Europe went far too quick and not enough to conquer.

[Great Houses of Xie]

Not me; I make armies that are meant to generally take on everything, from sieges, to skirmish domination, to head-to-head slugathons.

The Paradox campaign planners are absolute garbage. Total and complete sewage, not even fit for the cisterns it's collected in. The difference between me using the campaign planner in, say HOI4, and microing a front myself is the difference between 100,000 casualties and 1.1 million. The only thing Paradox was ever good at potentially making easier was the army builder for EU4; I could specify a particular template spread over so many provinces, then proceed to click once and rest assured that said template would be gathered in so much time.

CA is definitely trending towards smaller settlements. This is particularly notable from Empire/Napoleon into R2/Attila. Britannia is Britain being made into a map larger than WH2's global map. I agree that Europe was too quick to conquer and they have worked towards a more satisfying experience on that end, heh (all of France with a single siege? As if!).

No, I typically follow a standard TOE: general staff, 2x heavy cavalry, 2x light cavalry, 8x line infantry, 4x light infantry, 3x artillery (preferably two 9pdr/12pdr batteries and a horse artillery battery).

Though later in the campaign when I'm rolling in gold, I will form a separate cavalry corps for raiding and to draw replacements from.

[The Huskar Social Union]

I tend to try and go for an all-round general army that can deal with most stuff fairly well. Some times ill make changes if i know im going to war with a certain faction or it will be knocking on my doorstep soon, i.e as the Empire in Warhammer i will usually field more halberdiers and greatswords in my armies when chaos comes a knocking and more firearm units too.

[The Huskar Social Union]

I fucking despise lizardmen armies made up of nothing but large dinosaurs, there is no need

5 fucking feral carnosaurs and a stegosaurus. Fuck off, ill just drown them in rats then i guess.

[Zanera]

What I did for Empire: TW:
General unit (optional)
Two cav units (optional)
Line infantry lined up from one coast of Europe to the other (completely non-optional)
Cannons of any type (preferable to have but still optional)
