Numidia
« on: August 22, 2016, 07:58:15 PM »
Started a Numidian campaign.  Best bet is to immediately attack Carthage.  My army of 1 Numidian Archers, 3 Numidian Cav, and 2 Numidian Skirmishers defeated an army of 1 War Elephants, 1 Poeni Infantry, 1 Slinger, and 2 Citizen Militia.  My archers did rout when hit by the elephants.  I don't use Skirmish mode, because your guys run around like idiots when it is on.  Wish the Numidian Legionaries took one turn instead of two turns to train.  Carthage gave me a transgression warning, so I decided to make it official.  Attacked Carthage, but had no general, so I withdrew when they sallied out.  They gave chase, minus their general, so that is when I defeated them.

Are you playing on the most up to date beta with the large map, or the last public beta that we released?

I guess much like Nabatea, Numidia is pretty tough to fit into the RTW engine model with a realistic playstyle and "become Carthage" suddenly becomes an optimal, rather than a ridiculous, strategy.
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

Yup, I remember in RTRPE how hard it was to play as Numidia. I had a great few battles against them until I finally took Carthage. Campaign was easy after that

Not sure, probably the last released one.

I was on the old one, downloading the latest one was something I planned on doing later and never got around to doing it.  I have it on now.

Got it installed, but game won't start.  Noticed the thing about admin mode, so I will try that when I get a chance.

Make sure you are playing from the RTRPROJECT folder instead of the rtrproject folder.

I am.  I have the RTR install in C://Games/RTRPROJECTS/Rome-Total War.  It still crashed.  Message was "Failed to read censored dictionary file:  data//chat_filter.san".  Or do I need the Steam version, since my RTR was in Steam before.  But since I am using a clean install and a downloaded .exe, does it matter?  I don't have Alexander in the non-Steam version, only BI.  Which reminds me, I need to download the no-cd crack for BI.

It needs to be Games/RTRPROJECT and that's it. RTRPROJECT should replace Rome -Total War

Got it.  With college starting up again, I won't have much opportunity to play it, so for a couple of months I will be playing and posting less.  I will try it tonight.

I see another error. Make sure the directory reads C:/Games/RTRPROJECT
Then try it. Also if you've updated recently, the mod folder is now RTR instead of MM. So for the shortcut or steam launch options you should have -show_err -mod:RTR
