Facing the Zulus - (Boer Campaign) - Steam & Steel Total War Part 1

[@OhNotThat]

All of this is on the Medieval 2 Total War Engine. Actually amazing. Gunpowder combat in this truly frankstein creation done by dedicated modders and reverse engineers is far superior than modern total war warhammer gunpowder combat. Perhaps even better than Empire Total War it looks like it.

[@AdeptusDesu]

Yeah it's great stuff!

After playing warhammer, i cant go back to historical.

[@mekal177]

Cant believe i havent heard of this mod thanks for the showcase

[@AdeptusDesu]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@TyrantofChaos]

Glad to see you covering this mod again. Fingers crossed it works out.

[@AdeptusDesu]

yeah I hope it crashes a bit less often now haha, I'll try to avoid situations which increase the chance of it occurring

[@winndypops]

Wow, I would have never expected to see a Victorian Era mod for Medieval 2, was worried the riflemen would not work as effectively as they should but it seems great.

[@AdeptusDesu]

it's a really fun mod! Just a bit unstable sometimes during siege battles, so I try to fight more field battles and fewer siege battles to reduce the number of crashes.

Hey! Glad to see you playing at this. Seems there are some others giving it a go. I've been playing Lucium Mod for M2TW. It crashes but at least I know it will and have been saving so I can go back a few seasons and see if I can find a work around. Best regards!

What a great collection of factions this mod looks so cool

[@Teufer2]

Give use Total War VICTORIA!!! I want to play the Boer War or fight in the "Opium War" on the side of Opium.

[@MrDeano97]

What settings did you tweak to get sustainability? I get crashes after almost every turn even on low graphics settings.

Did you use the 4 GB patch to update the exe launch files for med 2?

[@MrDeano97]

@@AdeptusDesu naturally to both the kingdoms and medieval .exe just to be sure

[@AdeptusDesu]

@@MrDeano97 I changed one or two things in the config file. Lemme open it up and check to remember. I put widescreen to = 0, idk if this necessarily helps but it seemed to. I also lowered unit detail to medium. I also made sure that windowed mode was = 1

Hello! Is there a way to install workable mods on the cracked version of the game? becouse i work on a small salary and cant afford the actual game. this mod is awesome!

[@AdeptusDesu]

Tbh I'm not sure. Some mods don't work on the cracked version, but some do. I play on the steam version so I'm not sure sorry. But keep an eye on the game during the winter steam sale. It can be a lot cheaper, I think it is around 6 euros during the major steam sales!

[@paithancampbell7289]

super,,

Thank you

[@amongdrip8073]

What a coincidence, I Recently started a Med2 Ireland campaign in the Britannia expansion. What difficulty are you playing in?

[@AdeptusDesu]

Very Hard campaign, and medium battle difficulty

[@amongdrip8073]

@AdeptusDesu nice, I usually go medium all the way, don't really like how factions just focus you when you play on hardest campaign, and hardest battles is just awful.

[@MegaMOUNDS]

Well that was easy

[@AdeptusDesu]

Heh
