View Full Version : Any Medieval Games Out There?
truckingpete Nov 01, 2005, 06:51 PM I love Medieval games. Mostly RTS style.
I have these games:
Age of Empires II w/ expansion
Knights of Honor
Thats 'bout it. Ive been looking on Gamespot and etc., but I cant find anything good, well that doesnt look good. I dont want any fantasy stuff.
So any suggestions?
Thanks!

Oh yah..forgot bout those....:crazyeye:
Any newer medieval games?
I mostly like history games (hint hint: Civ) Im, just say, a history buff, but I love Medieval times the most of all...

Stronghold Crusader
Dammit, those were the only ones that come to my mind. Ooh, and Europa Universalis II, though it's more the end of medieval times onwards.

How about Stronghold 2? With the new patches, it should fix all the bugs, shouldn't it?
I can get Stronghold Crusades for 10 bucks at Wal - Mart. I might go w/ that.
So if anybody as anything on Stronghold 2 with thepatch updates and works well, please tell me...
Thanks!
LLXerxes Nov 02, 2005, 06:40 PM I have Stronghold 2, I recomend not buying it.
It's slow- loading screen takes 6 minutes to load on it's own. Then the game often freezes for 30 seconds.
New features suck- knights gong and everything you ever want, they screwed it up
It's still a good game, but I'd pick Stronghold 1 and Stronghold Crusader over Stronghold 2 just about every day.
BTW if your gonna get any Stronghold game, get Stronghold Warchest, it includes Stronghold 1 (My favorite game of all time) and Stronghold Crusader and bonus maps and scenarios
I also recomend Castles and Catapults PC version. I don't have it but my friend loves it.
SunTzu Nov 03, 2005, 06:57 PM I'd get Stronghold 2, i love that game and i don't have any problems with it, but maybe thats because i have a better computer or something. Great game though.

www.taleworlds.net for Mount+Blade (still in BETA, but it's only $12US if you buy it in beta, it's a great game, the horses pwn all other in-game horses (it is playable)).
truckingpete Nov 03, 2005, 11:28 PM I'd get Stronghold 2, i love that game and i don't have any problems with it, but maybe thats because i have a better computer or something. Great game though.
Yah, that might be why. My computer as Win98 yet, want to build a new computer soon...or upgrade
Maniacal Nov 03, 2005, 11:34 PM Mount + Blade works OK on Win98, theres some thread somewhere on the site about it.
Fox Mccloud Nov 05, 2005, 09:00 PM What about Middle Ages China games? (http://emperor.impressionsgames.com/home.jsp)
Loppan Torkel Nov 13, 2005, 03:32 AM How about Crusader Kings? I've not played it myself, but it's average score is pretty good. Not sure if there's any demo out... Perhaps someone here knows if the game's good?!
Rising Sun Nov 15, 2005, 10:50 AM Hmm i think someone is working on mod for Rome:Total War and it would be cool if that RTW engine run like Medieval styles.

That what im looking for too, keep looking and checking the forums.
Loppan Torkel Nov 15, 2005, 02:39 PM Chivalry: Total War (http://www.stratcommandcenter.com/forums/index.php?showforum=40) and "the Crusades (http://forums.rometotalrealism.org//index.php?showtopic=10903)" are two Rome: Total War mods set in the medieval era. They both look promising.
Lozzy_Ozzy Nov 15, 2005, 03:15 PM Yeah, I would definately recommend Stronghold (1 and Crusades).
And Crusader Kings doesn't look too bad either :).

That's a great game, but more of an ancient one.
