How do you guys get those camera angles I can never get a full view of my character like that.

Hold down the V key, then rotate the camera with your mouse. That's the default I think.

There just after a bloody battle 8 assorted horsemen vs 33 Corsairs
That games going bad though, me and the elves won in the north where I pulled off some amazing victories, but their weakened.
Sadly Gondors dead and Rohans Spent and Wavering with one lesser host left while the bad guys have every major army in their command in Rohan while the weak elven armies(The only greater host has 32 guys) are coming to help, but I'm next to unstoppable so it should work out.

[John I Tzimisces]

what faction are you a part of? Almost looks like corsair armor, elven?

[Kamos]

Elven cost me around 3500 I think but the thick version costs around 13500 I think.

I will attempt to post my gondorian "Belisarius", with my pretty mithril hauberk, helm of earnur, and sword of westernesse tomorrow/today...internet retardedness permitting. (currently somehow I am connected to my wireless router yet not...)

[Kleos]

@Kleos Excellent work mate ,repped you for your effort.

Thankyou, hope it helps.

I'm playing as A Rider of Rohan, it's so damn awesome. Focusing on One/two handed weapons and throwing spears to soften them up. Just got the sword of the old Rohinian king from Theodin.

Thats my favoutite combo of weapons - its not interesting, but its darn effective! Rohan is my favourite faction; a good central position so that you can attack both Isenguard as well as helping the elves and Gondor.

@Kleos: Good info.

Thankyou; yours was great, cant wait to get that Rohan bow for my Horse Archer charachter.


EDIT: Will post my charachter later...but looking at everyone elses i feel so cheap - everyone has there cultures armour on, while my Gondorian squire is wearing armour he pillaged off some orcs!

Nice information here

Of course, I need to restart TLD now, but don't let that stop you

[Big War Bird]

I just started playing this game last week and got the Last Days mod. Gotta say I haven't been this taken in by a game since Shogun TW. It definitely a game design that deserved to be noticed.

[Yosemite]

What is this mod you all playing?

[Denny Crane!]

The last days, I wasn't to fussed about a fantasy mod, preffering realism but after downloading it all I can say is god damn!

Also the other mod that allows you to take cities and command armies. The tactics look like they might work which they don't in TLD

[The White Knight]

Can anyone explain me how precisely to get formations to work in TLD? Typically I make my soldiers hold position and then give them the order to form a line. They don't however do that (form a line).

Doesn't work for me, never has.

[Hattori]

for me the infantry formations just form two lines and sometimes they dont even get out from their positions, its good for defence maybe, but I heard its still a bit buggy from the devs of the mod.

[Wild Bill Kelso]

anyone ever play around with the crtl-f5 trick? Kind of fun to watch your character go into automatic mode Also a way of getting him to cheer after the battle is over!

They only work if you have the charge order, if you have given the hold postion or follow me order then they dont work.

Basicly when the guys are charging tell them to form close ranks , only the Infantry follow formations and they will all gel togther to form this really nasty block of men, but the thing is a bit buggy for me the bastards dont move after forming the formations , so all my infantry are stuck in one place while the rest of my men just charge the enemy and die, although killing the infantry is hard especially if they warg riiders.

@Wild Bill Kelso: what is the ctrl+F5 trick? i never heard of it before.

[Kamos]

If you have cheats active it lets AI take over your character during a battle.
