AI in this game sucks Laughing i can win a battle with just longbow men , ive done it twice so far the enemy usually moves away from me if i try aproaching so i just move like 4 bunchs of longbow men into position and start firing, the enemy just stands there or slowly trys to move out of range.

still a fun game though i hope they hurry up with a patch

erhm a quick question, dunno if it has been answered before but;

When I start a new campaign and uncheck "show ai movement" it works fine, but when I then save the game, and later returns... its on! Takes like forever each turn, even though I press space, or click every time an AI moves...

Anyone know how to disable this pernament?

Lusted has released v2.0 of his LTC mod aimed at improving the gameplay and balance of Medieval II Total War. It does this through extensively rebalanced unit stats; changed unit costs; longer, slower paced campaign; more difficult to maintain larger empires; improved campaign ai thanks to the Ultimate AI mod; and various other things. It also features an easy to use installer that does everything for you.


Exactly what im looking for! Smile
I made my own "mod" Wink I changed every turn to 0,5 years instead of 2(!)

Thx!
