Favorite Kingdoms Expansion

[CELTICEMPIRE]

Well, I just wanted to see what people thought about Midieval 2 total war the Kingdoms expansion I personally like the Teutonic the best, the Teutonic order has those Halbruder and Ritterbruder and the gameplay is more fun, I dont play the others much often due to lack of intrest

So what do you guys think

It would be the Americas campaign if for the life of me I could get musketeers to work correctly in the Medieval II engine. Otherwise, probably the Britannia campaign since it's utterly devoid of horse archers, whom I despise.

I'm not particularly a fan of any of them, and I'm entirely surprised that there isn't a campaign for the last 25 years of the Hundred Years' War.

Teutonic. I have an affinity for Novgorod after I watched Sergei Einenstiens 1938 battle epic Alexander Nevsky.
Plus I feel it has the best music.

I dislike the Americas because I hate playing in forests, muskets don't work well, and I hate slaughtering endless streams of Aztec infantry.
I dislike the Crusades because the unit art is generaly ahistorical and Broken Crescent does a much better.
There isn't anything specificly wrong with Britania, but I just don't like the feel of it.

agree with you on muskets, but not not with horse archers, although Jav-Cav like Polish nobles are a lot better

Britannia, I would say: in part, it's the increased focus on a region of particular interest to me- call it jingoism if you must - but I also like the "classic" medieval atmosphere and the most "neatly", if not evenly, balanced faction roosters.

Teutonic probably comes after that, and for similar reasons to the above. Crusades and Americas are interesting, but the faction styles don't seem to dovetail as well to me- the "culture clash" which is necessary to the scenarios doesn't create as enjoyable a scenario for me.

So far I've only played the Americas, but I've only just got a PC capable of playing it so have picked up Medieval II, Empire and Napolean on cheap offers so am spoilt for choice at the moment.

I'm not really a big fan of M2. I preferred Britannia, but I could just play VI for that.

 

[Dachs]

I never liked the Kingdoms campaigns, but the best of a bad lot was the Teutonic campaign, followed closely by the Brit one.

At least Kingdoms makes for some awesome mods! I only got it really to prepare for EB2

I'd go with Teutonic. I like them all though.
