I've got two offensive stacks of the best units I can field. This means I can pump out 1/4 of a stack of my best troops every turn if I need to in a 2:2:1 ratio, meaning I can raise/replenish armies decently quickly. Haven't hit the Marian reforms yet, so I'm still using Rome's early units.Īrettium and Ariminum produce infantry, Patavium and Segesta produces ranged/siege, and Mediolanum produces cavalry. Managed to wipe out the Gauls in about 20 turns, and I used their cities as my economic base while my Italian core served as my main military training centers.Įdit: Secured an alliance with the Germans early, as they also hated the Gauls, so I don't really have to worry about them. I pushed hard to wipe out the Gauls early, as I'd figured it was only a matter of time before the Greeks and the rest of the Barbarian factions would jump on me. Not that I'm saying it's a worse experience or that Rome 2 is dumbed down, because Rome 2 was completely revamped sometime ago with family trees, clans, and realm management overall.Ĭurrently about 50-60 ish turns into my own Julii campaign. It's really sounds unnecessarily complicated compared to Rome 2.
Glad they ditched that system from Shogun 2 onwards) you can't sail with your armies and agents unless you have a fleet ready to embark them. You don't have provinces, your armies don't replenish unless you get them back to the main cities, you don't have army stances, you can't ambush anywhere, diplomacy is made through agents (diplomacy is really confusing btw), your cities don't have garrison, public order is wacky (seriously what the hell were they thinking. Still I didn't get much of a grasp on the title because everything is so much different from Rome 2 that I'm totally lost, even with the advisor lady. I managed to do the tutorial campaign and consolidate all of northern Italy as the Julii.įollowed the advisor lady and managed to not go bankrupt as incredible as it sounds. Currently play Warhammer 2, and the oldest title I've played was Shogun 2. Also, don't send your whole army back to retrain at once, merge units and just send 1 or 2 back at a time.
An army of only 10 units might be vulnerable, but if you can afford 1.5 armies then 15 units should be strong enough to handle what the AI throws at you.
I know it can be hard to break from the Warhammer mode of thinking, but with no supply lines there's no penalty for separating to fight on multiple fronts. You don't need to keep your armies completely consolidated. Sure, it can be fun to make doomstacks of Urban Cohorts and Praetorian cavalry in the late game when money is no issue, but the sweet spot for cost vs performance is always Hastati/Early Legionary Cohorts and Equites/Roman Cavalry. There's no reason why you should have armies made up entirely of top-tier units. Idk what turn you're on, but you should be able to afford multiple armies fairly early on. Well here's your problem, and there's a few issues with this statement.Īlways prioritize economic growth over military buildings. I can't afford to have more than one army with top units, so my army is back and forth, not to mention retreating to replenish troops.
