    Re: Battle end

    This feature is in Attila. Provided the enemy still has routing units on the field the 'Victory' parchment still pops up and then goes away, and an end battle button appears at the top (all without...

    After grouping them, move them by holding ALT + Left click. This will allow you to reposition the formation on the battlefield. If you want to additionally tell them to walk (not run) and/or rotate...

    Re: Loyalty & Bastards

    The new system will take a bit of getting used to, but i must say I am impressed.
    I think you should be careful of spending too many influence points on the king though, as I've seen two of my...
  5. Poll: Re: Your impressions

    I answered my own question playing just then: Id say 4 - 4 and a half hours if you fight every battle yourself like I did. It was a really good prologue campaign actually. It is not open ended.

  6. Poll: Re: Your impressions

    I agree, the prologue is a great place to start. I am playing it myself, and after playing total war for years it still showed me a few new things. The advisor is great now. Attila is definitely a...
  7. Poll: Re: Your impressions

    Oh cool, thanks for the info about the campaign. It will be telling to see if the turns get longer and longer as more of the map is revealed. Patches will help too I guess.

    Sticky: Re: An Official note on ATTILA & Performance

    Firstly, I would like to start by saying I agree Total War needs a lot of optimising or a new engine. And CA's business practices to late leave a lot to be desired. Also, we dont know how the day 1...

    No worries :) The medieval section is fairly small (a criticism of the book is that the newer games are covered more) so I wont post any more of Medieval here - Rest assured though, there is a...

  18. Poll: Re: Will you play Total War arena after Rome 2?

    Its worth having a look at. I mean, at the moment there's not much info out, so I wont judge it, but I'm not too optimistic.
