you know the thing i like about rome total war is that arrows dont take forever to kill a person like in medieval 2 total war i honestly cant wait for rome 2 or medieval 3!!!
How it was a heroic victory u have more forces than enemy :D lol pikemans are weak when u attacking from back. So no problem to remove them. Only 2 squads were dangerous: 1 elephants 2 macedonian cavalry . I see u ve played against computer on easy level...:D try oon hard ... ;) Movie pretty good:D Sorry for mistakes I don't speak english well.
I will agree that pikemen are vulnerable to attack from both flanks and the back, but if you know how to use them properly, you're enemy won't be able to surround them (e.g. you place your pikes in to rows, the one in the back covering the front from hammer and anvil strikes, crude, but efficient). I fond it rather easy to crush an enemy army with pikemen, even Rome, and I'm not trying to brag here or anything...
we of course know that if that was in real life and alexander the great was the leader of the macedonians macedon would have more chances of wining because 1st he was one of the best generals the world has ever seen 2nd he had won so many battles with less troops against uncountable persians and 3rd...emm...emm...their is no third lol
@COMMANDERGRAVEN123 Agreed. Sort of. The main reason Rome mowed over Macedonian was because they didn't have enough med/heavy cavalry for the hammer and anvil tactic that Alexander used. Alexander was outnumbered in a lot of battles, but he also had well trained, well armored, & well seasoned troops who were often fighting archers and light infantry. It is argued that because of his conquests, many Macedonians migrated east depleting the body of citizens needed to supply a good army.
well that and romans had better armor and infantry. macedonians we amazing pikemen, but their sword was always a secondary weapon. for the romans, the sword was their primary weapon and the curve fo the towor shield allowed then to sliding in close past the pikes. once it became and up close melee, romans had the advantage. still its a shame that the roman cavelry only got good later in the empire's history, but the legions were amazing
please tell me!rome total war,when i conqcuer macedon why cant i play with macedon?what i need to do so i could play imperial campigan with macedon?please help!
a real legion would only have 1 legionary first cohort and 10 imperial cohorts... using alot of eagles is just cheating... there morale goes through the roof!!!
angle ur left and right men on the sides in a 45 degree angle us 2 chorts or 3 cohorts on the sides when the cavalry comes, thn we all wll carry the mark of the legion.
yeah, you didnt have an army back in the day that would form up, attack and win battles on their own either, you would need a guy called a skilled general to lead them to victory, the men won the victory but its how the men were placed that won them victory
I was actually thinking... this mod's name doesn't really make sence to the mod. I mean it's a mod that weights heavily on the Romans and their senate, but what he really did to the game in this mod is kinda just to give all units new looks and more units to some of the factions aswell as changing the campaign map WHICH WAS AWESOME!!... Forts have a small hill at the start of a wall too... but i mean, he didn't really change it to a Roman game, only the looks of things places and units...
when you fighiting against a hellenistic army you have to make sure that your cavalary is stronger than the greek one because you will have to attack the flaks of the Greek infantry (phalanx) in order to deafet them ..
go to options/advanced options/changet unit scale to small or huge. That should give ya 40-160 men or so :) or go to start/my computer/C disk/prograhm files/creative assembly/rome/data file/ and click export_descr_unit. then in the line soldiers it should have 40 as number of units, just make it higher to 80 or so.
i got this mod SPQR 6.4 i already have the unist scale huge ex:conhord X 190 men or something but my army cant pass 4000 men,thats the thick huh export_descr_unit huh?
@HansStrife dude can you imagine yourself standing in line perfectly still while watching six angry elephants racing at you at full speed? those soldiers must have had either beer or bravery in huge amounts!!!
wow 6:40 was some awesome flanking maneuver of that phalanx. to think that all those makedonians would die. ugh, war. some crazy stuff. but romulus woulda been proud of you.
LAST PARAGRAPH after this. anyways for chariots and elephants, in modding these are NOT a single unit.. they are represented in ONE mount (horse,elephant) but PER ONE mount there can be say, 1-4 riders. so before you guys do this make SURE U KNOW how many riders are on it or it will mess up. so here is the formula: IF riders on ELEPHANT UNIT=4 Then Make the SECOND numeric on the SOLDIERS LINE 4 so it can fit on the elephant/chariot then make sure u can divid it E.I soldier, 40, 10, 40/10=4 :)
TO ALL THOSE SPAR FANS .if u know how to mod then don't read this .iam a noob compared to Lt1956, so , if anybody who has a really good computer that can easily put up like , say 16000 units in RTW then max out all ur units like i do. it's really easy for me. just simply go to first file Data,descr_model_battle and make sure all ur combat units .. not female peasants are in number 40 scale. then go to the Data.export_descr_unit file and change all the values of units to 60.... read continued
FIX> ITS SPQR. :( so, continued.. i''ll make a illustration here for a example, when you guys open the 2nd file export_descr_units, it will look like this type, dictionary, catagory, class, voice_type then MOST IMPORTANT : at where it says SOLDIER , on that line the first numeral key .. usually .. 40-60 Change them all to 60 (for single Chassis only) make sure you guys don'y do it to chariots and elephants for thats more complicated to explain. thats all for today. hav fun all.PROUD TO BE SPQR
and, unit scales in the games console can only do so much, some units like chariots and cavalry can only be 160 or 98(chariots) in one card. if u make them 200 or 140 chariots it makes unit values way more epic you can FEEL the battle like in the Alexanders movie or .. Troy .. endless view of soldiers dressed in your color and your enemies. And that is what i call a true RTS game and That - IS TOTAL WAR. next paragraph i'll talk about how to change chariots and elephants
for example: adds 2 hit points for all units (except elephants and chariots), changes attack an defense points values and of course changes skins of units... most of them are perfect like spartan hoplites or imperial legionaries
or u can go into data and find file export_descr_unit and it show a hole paragraph on how to change the units stats(note u can only make them at 60 nothing bigger or CTDwill happen)make a back up of that file and them replace the file with your chenged on. Do all this with my last comment then your done
Isn't that only for certain units though like Phalanx units? I'm also curious if you know how to mod the unit size so that I could change the unit size to whatever I custom size I wanted it to be at? Any help from anyone is appreciated. Thanks.
yes. I have tried it with mtw2 and rtw including mods. im playing roma surrectum right now and i have 240 men in a unit and 200 for archers and 120-160 for cavalry. in preferences file change show_banner from true to false. and show arrow markers from true to false and be sure to save. let me know how it works out or if there are any other questions.
Yes, I actually do have another question: What program do you need to be able to open the file? Windows wants me to download a program called DynSite?? Anyway, thank you very much for your help. It seems pretty straight forward once I can open the file. Also, I am able to mod the game as well once this file is open? Or at least make other changes to the game right? Thanks for the help, I let you know how it goes.
yea the banners and arrow markers make it alot non realistic. So ur welcome. If you have anymore questions just message me. I'm not an expert on modding but I have tweeked or changed the text files more to my liking.
1) do you have any idea how to activate the speech on the battle field? for example when reinforcements arrive or when you win the battle
2) i want to change the music because i dont like it...i dont necessary want the original music of rome tw but i prefer an other one. do you know how to change it?
I love how the annoying gigantic banners are taken away in this mod. I play Rome:Total Realism and the unit banners are one thing I wish they took out.
If you're done playing spqr mod, can you reinstall rome total war to play Rome Total war normally, and not the spqr mod? Or does it permanently changes the WHOLE cd case thing.
i instaled everything the patches but every time i click rome total war is the reguler one when i check the files the rome spqr data is there but still cant play do i have to delete the reguler rome total war data or what sum 1 help me
create a shortcut of the rome total war exe or you can modify the rome total war shortcut on your desktop. right click on it and on the target line at the end add this "-mod:spqr" with out the quotation marks.
i dont have spqr installed on my computer but i do have europa barbarorum so i will this as an example.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Activision\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -mod:eb
thats what the target line should read except "spqr" in stead of eb.
You were probably playing on easy cuz with this battle formation of your Roman troops and the strength of that Macedonian army you were crushed, their phalanx would hit you hard in the front and their cav and Elephants at the flanks and the rear but if you watch how the Macedonians fought this battle it must be easy.
pff... what stupid tactic! It's just a big confused mass of legionaries... don't count only on the military power and remember a simply basical rule: don't face up frontally the oplites... or die like the persian army vs. the 300 spartans!
You can do it in difensive position, so you can launch the "pila" that legionaries have and reduce drastically their number.
yeh but the spartans had a narrow path with forces the persians to attack from the front.
anyway what i like to do vs phalanx is to have a thinish line so your line is bigger than the phalanx and when it attacks swing the troops on the outside around the phalanx and have fun while the massacre begins lol
Dude what's the first thing you learn about fighting a Phalanx? NEVER ENGAGE IT FROM THE FRONT!!... You spent too much time securing the flanks and the rear whilst your front lines where being shattered, luckily you could get to their rear and beat them... but you could've lost way way less men...
a little tip when battling cavalry when you press to attack hold alt. then right click on your enemy they use swords instead of spears which give your cavalry a advantage as the cpu dont use this. also works on multiplayer but good players know it so do it vs noobs!
eh already lowered the total war spqr version 6.4 and fixes eh fallen 1.3, 1.5 pe Barbarian invasion and installed the patch 1.6, asks me to come in and record when entering achievement is not played either a campaign or battle, leaving ah oh desktop does not work please me if someone knows how to fix it would help me a lot
well in rome total realism units look crappy specially spartans(worst than vanilla) in spqr the campaign with rome is in extreme hard in rtr the difficulty is almost the same with vanilla the difference is that if u loose a key city u will be veeeeery delayed because to build military buildings it takes daaaaamn loooong
I love the Roman skins in this mod.

I love how the annoying gigantic banners are taken away in this mod. I play Rome:Total Realism and the unit banners are one thing I wish they took out.

If you're done playing spqr mod, can you reinstall rome total war to play Rome Total war normally, and not the spqr mod? Or does it permanently changes the WHOLE cd case thing.
FireTruck145 3 years ago
No, it doesn't. When ou're done with the mod, just uninstall the game and reinstall a fresh install.

rarafly1 3 years ago
create a shortcut of the rome total war exe or you can modify the rome total war shortcut on your desktop. right click on it and on the target line at the end add this "-mod:spqr" with out the quotation marks.
i dont have spqr installed on my computer but i do have europa barbarorum so i will this as an example.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Activision\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -mod:eb
thats what the target line should read except "spqr" in stead of eb.
see if that works.

You were probably playing on easy cuz with this battle formation of your Roman troops and the strength of that Macedonian army you were crushed, their phalanx would hit you hard in the front and their cav and Elephants at the flanks and the rear but if you watch how the Macedonians fought this battle it must be easy.
Microyz 3 years ago
macedonia usaually are the best their phalanx spears are BIG you must have benn on like negative easy
rubiks3x3x3 3 years ago
pff... what stupid tactic! It's just a big confused mass of legionaries... don't count only on the military power and remember a simply basical rule: don't face up frontally the oplites... or die like the persian army vs. the 300 spartans!
You can do it in difensive position, so you can launch the "pila" that legionaries have and reduce drastically their number.
And be watchful on the sides!
NandoPro86 3 years ago
yeh but the spartans had a narrow path with forces the persians to attack from the front.
anyway what i like to do vs phalanx is to have a thinish line so your line is bigger than the phalanx and when it attacks swing the troops on the outside around the phalanx and have fun while the massacre begins lol
mandude19 3 years ago
The spartans didnt have a narrow passageway when they fought the immortals...
CupCakeTheBear 3 years ago
Dude what's the first thing you learn about fighting a Phalanx? NEVER ENGAGE IT FROM THE FRONT!!... You spent too much time securing the flanks and the rear whilst your front lines where being shattered, luckily you could get to their rear and beat them... but you could've lost way way less men...
Afesin 3 years ago 2
or if they had gunpowderweapons you can atttack from the front..sadly that is a senario we will never see
TJkiwiOWEG 3 years ago
a little tip when battling cavalry when you press to attack hold alt. then right click on your enemy they use swords instead of spears which give your cavalry a advantage as the cpu dont use this. also works on multiplayer but good players know it so do it vs noobs!

well in rome total realism units look crappy specially spartans(worst than vanilla) in spqr the campaign with rome is in extreme hard in rtr the difficulty is almost the same with vanilla the difference is that if u loose a key city u will be veeeeery delayed because to build military buildings it takes daaaaamn loooong
