If you could fix 1 thing in total war

[JanissaryRush]

20 units stacks can barely fit on the smallest fort as it is. Anymore and troops would have to sit on eachother's shoulders, which would be very cool.

 

[Dachs]

That just means that forts are poorly sized.

 

[Phrossack]

Armies are too small.

Indeed.

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

That just means that forts are poorly sized.

Actually, it sounds more like he's sending 20 units to defend his smallest forts. On some of the siege battles with larger forts I could have done with larger armies!

 

[Maniacal]

Yeah forts get pretty big pretty quickly. I don't know how much better it is in Shogun (but their castles are also a very different design) but the series in general really needs to improve siege warfare, especially since sieges were the main thing that happened during war time until the last few hundred years.

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

I find it's much better, or at least different enough from previous games. I've also noticed the AI is more willing to march out and launch an attack before you reach their castles.

I'd like less over-simplification. It's horrible how the Holy Roman Empire seems so united in M2TW, and the insanely huge provinces in ETW. :shudder:

 

[Ajidica]

If you are ranting about over simplification of factions, I would reccomend you turn you head to the east. Specificaly, Byzantium and the Muslim nations. Rather then even pretended to implement Byzantium's actual army, they just gave her a crapton of horse archers that are better then anything the seljuks could find. (Heck, Vardarotai can defeat French Lancers without too much fuss.)

 

[darkedone02]

a better storyline... I easily get bored and tired of playing total war's campaign due to the fact that the storyline are crappy.

 

[Ajidica]

The fact you mention 'storyline' in a total war game leads me to believe you have not played a single total war game.

 

[Maniacal]

Though better missions would be nice (which were in Medieval 2 and possibly shogun 2).

 

[Ajidica]

Well, more realistic would be nice.
