Rebaults are my favorite street sweepers, the piercing effect of those rounds cut through hordes of enemy's effortlessly. I prefer playing Milan so i can have legions of Crossbows with Rebaults guarding the flanks.

[@lewiscarter1083]

Rebaults on a defensive bridge-crossing battle are the best

[@SGTvolcan]

@@lewiscarter1083 I'm going to have to argue against that. Bridge battles are very flat and if the enemy has artillery. They can and will counter your Rebaults. That's why i prefer fighting in the city. By the time their artillery catches up to the main force. Their army is already decimated.

[@lewiscarter1083]

@SGTvolcan Yes I do agree. However for the most part I've found that the AI generally is a bit slow to use its artillery effectively, and that they tend to send all of their inf/cav all at once across the bridge from the start. That is to say, with a little bit of luck, you can generally get a few rebault volleys off (which are devistating on tightly packed troops on the bridge) before the artillery takes out your rebaults. You are correct though they are more effective in cities where the AI really struggles to move their artillery into position.

[@SimonAshworthWood]

In my games, enemies use their fleets to blockade my ports. That does have a significant economic effect, so I build fleets to destroy enemy fleets.

@@skyrim654 You can easily build up coastal cities to over 6k income, while landlocked ones often fall in the 4k range. A coastal region with good trade goods is a gold mine...which gets cut off if your ports get blockaded (also, other factions will see you as weak if you have no navy but high port-based trade income, and declare war on you by blockading your ports.)

I’ve been getting into Medieval 2 recently and I like the core principles you went over. Playing M2 after being used to Empire and later games is a doozy.

[@kaanjel]

Same. I remember when I was about 11 (24 now), a friend of mine always used to say; "yeah, RTW is great, but it's getting kinda boring, you should try M2TW". Never played it until half a year ago. I kind of like it (not so much as RTW or ETW though), but the pathfinding is the worst I've ever seen. I was in a siege battle, put all my troops in an alley, took a few to set up near the citysquare and they ran outside the walls on the other side of the city. I litterally had to take them one by one, placing them constantly a few steps forward to get there, otherwise they would get back outside the walls to some random spot. So yeah... I don't know.

[@TheSuperappelflap]

On the surface its simple, but many mechanics like managing settlement population are more complex than in later games. Population growth is percentage based and influenced by tax rate, buildings, governors. Recruiting units from a settlement takes them from the population, so if you want to level up a settlement you need to try to avoid recruiting units there. You can also get specific traits on generals in specific cases, for example if a general is in a town on a turn where a building finishes, and the public order is at 80%, you have a chance to get a trait that increases tax income. If you really want to optimize a playthrough you will need to have a spreadsheet and take notes every turn. Compared to that, Rome 2 and Warhammer have much simpler tax and population mechanics.

[@salatsultan397]

Waiiiiiiit! I played hundreds of hours and never noticed that only Militia-units were free of upkeep with walls. Because of that I always used Ballistas as Garrison, because if you blob up the enemy at the gate the are devastating and the firebolts not only are good against moral but seam to increase their hitbox.

[@Bulsky]

[@darth0tator]

the building queue is a nice feature, but it has to be handled with care...I usually only put low cost stuff in there that I would build anyway, like roads

[@TealWolf26]

I haven't used it since Rome1 where you wanted to be "poor" to keep your generals from accruing bad traits, so you stockpiled your economy in the build queue which 'each' reserved their cost actively instead of just the first building in queue. Also the recruited units did the same thing AND drew from the population pool. So if you wanted to delay upgrading the town/city, you just kept recruiting units. Also a great anti-squalor tactic. Whereas in M2TW you just drip feed one unit or one building at a time. It makes for a different experience. I do like having increasing recruitment slots though. That's a nifty addition.

[@GOGPlays]

If one's economy can't carry whatever he wants to build with queue in 15-20 turns, he is playing this game wrong way. Just spamming good militia units is broken part of this game.

Not to mention the fact that some men might not hear the order. I see it more as a feature than a bug honestly. Sure, it's inconvenient, but how do you think a real war would have gone down in those days, trying to shout commands over the roar of men and horses. It feels very immersive lol

So if you have more settlements than generals, there is a chance of "man of an hour" event. That can trigger if you win a battle by using army without general.

The most important melee stat in Medieval 2 is neither armor NOR morale, it is the Defense Skill. Even 1 point of that stat makes a huge difference. It’s the stat that makes all eastern cavalry so hard to kill and the lack of this stat is what makes dismounted gothic knights & polearms so easy to kill. You can test it out yourself, giving any melee unit even 1 extra point of Defense Skill is always making it noticeably tougher.

[@LegendofTotalWar]

No it's morale. No stat matters when a unit has routed and all units can be routed quite easily with a good rear charge and a dreaded general.

Yes, the Pope will not stop you from defending your own territory. Still how often does it happen that a halfway decent player is on the defensive against the AI? Still his unilateral cease fire declaration does not stop you from putting an army in enemy territory just attacking with it. Also, the army wont tear up the countryside as much. Another interesting fact is that if the enemies city has no armies in it you can move in and take it without getting exocommunicated since thier is no battle to trigger it. SO if the city just had a general and you knock him off with an assasinn you can move in and the Pope can't do anything.

[@Super1Pyro]

4:30 I'd disagree on ballistas being useless. Artillery in med2 is really inaccurate and sadly this can't be fixed with unit experience. But ballistas got decent enough accuracy AND since they are firing at a low arc plenty of their misses become juicy hits nevertheless. In addition such hits greatly contribute to morale loss. Also due to AI silliness it's possible to crush full-stack armies besieging your settlements with barely any losses using ballistas. Sally out, put ballistas to the sides of the enemy, and watch ballistas making the biggest european skewers. AI expects YOU to engage and it won't try to counter-attack with melee units anything that shoots at artillery range. Enemy missile units will still go for a skirmish, but in most cases this issue can be solved with one melee cavalry unit. Or just soak missiles with shields. But AI in general doesn't have a tendency to bring missile units.
