Hopefully this doesn't make defending extremely broken, because otherwise why bother attacking?

About naming the provinces, I didn't want to use English name, because I really things like "Winterfell" and "Riverun", but realize the usefulness of English toponyms.
Thus compromise is to use random prefix and English suffix, so we get names like "Gheburg", "Nofort", "Ladale". Which I believe sufficient.

I kid you not, when making a name generator for this, the first result I got was literally "Cucktown". It is like god is making fun of me.

If you'd appreciate it I could help out with some programming assistance and art assets. Not too much though, I'm already doing a lot of work for my own projects and I would rather not burn myself out.

The Merchant Prince series had a map that was less accurate the farther away from home you sailed, thought that was pretty neat.

>>1608315
>I mean map games
Such as?

>>1608486
I want something like Google Maps if it was a game like you have to explore parts of the map as a mechanic... unlike Paradox games where the map is just used for the political/war games. There is no need to actually go to specific parts of the maps like cities and house level

There's the atlas series but it's pretty old.

I can't tell if you are complaining Paradox games don't go down to city level or you don't want to go down to city level.

It annoys me she has to attack from a flank and since enemies tend to hug walls sometimes her movement points are not enough.

I just wanted to know what other people would suggest. Sorry

Empire has a great campaign but terrible battles. Napoleon fixes all of the issues with Empire's battles but has a mediocre campaign.

For beginner-friendly TW games it depends on how far back you're willing to go. Rome 1 and Medieval 2 are the classics but they're *very* old. Shogun 2 is solid but showing its age.
Of the more modern games, Rome 2 is probably the best one to start with. Attila is fantastic but it's more challenging and not beginner friendly at all, so don't pick it as your first foray into the genre.

>Empire looked appealing, as I like line battles, early rifles, and that general era of combat,
Empire or fall of the samurai, use darthmod for both. darthmod is generally vanilla+.

>>1609288
start with the greeks, ie play rome 1 (not the remaster), alternatively medieval 2

>>1607873
also what the point of starting with yuusho minor population if you dont start with assimilation bonus and sheredyn does everything almost same with added bonus of influence?

>ally with Vaulters
>ally with block aliens
>send my Allies to war with Cravers
>backstab block aliens and take all their planets while they are busy fighting the cravers
>conquer enough planets to win the game together with the Vaulters
I love winning while making all the aliens seethe

>>1607873
>>1607881
Ok so it seems I was wrong, yuusho collection bonus gives fleet manpower outside your control zones recovery so it synergyses with sheredyn or more aggressive use playstyle. Also you get 10% more dmg just from 1st quest and sheredyn final reward tactic makes medium/close range slugs extra deadly. I was in war with cravers and my close range slugs shuttles were way more devasting then they're, and with insane influence generation I can out produce my fleets 3 to 1

>>1609458
Well it is not like there is any actual content left to talk about. I think TNO is actually dead dead now.

Anyone who hated the mod at least had emotion for it, so you had engaged threads, now we are stuck with apathy and ironic shitposting

It is over, Balbo's Italy will never release

>>1609294
Can't tell if this is the spiritual-religious one or the neo-futurist guy who still likes to think he is young at heart.

>>1609489
Well, at least they released another who-the-fuck-caresistan rework and added a Jenga minigame.

I remember that. Starsector is essentially that but on steroids and minus the Star Trek setting. I imagine it has mods to fix that for you though

>>1609256
Thing is, nigger cattle in RTS don't like innovation or change. So you have to pick. Take the risk and change it up or appeal to classic RTS and work from there.

>>1609293
I'm dying to know which route AoM Retold is going to take. Base game is already great and has unique mechanics. How much will they mess with it? What'll happen to the terrible China civ?

I don't see how Stormgate can be more hype than that.

>>1609321
Nothing is getting removed, which I think is unfortunate but understandable seeing how no company wants to market a remaster as having less content.

If I had any say, I'd just gut the Atlanteans and the Chinese and focus on the main 3 and build off of them with new gods, buildings, and units.

>>1608167
I think what they mean is when games have an "alpha test" or show "pre-alpha footage" and the game is obviously 99% done and already in polish phase
Meanwhile this alpha test is actually happening in alpha, all the races aren't even in the game yet

>>1609476
>live service game
>muh alpha
>muh beta
It’s more appropriate to call it marketing with added benefit of free play-testing.
Three birds with one stone.

Does this mod make it so i don't have to conquer Greece+Asia Minor if i want to have money?
Even as a kid, i remember just prioritizing crushing Greece no matter who i started as because they fucking drown in money, Julii, Scipii, Carthage, even if i'm not positioned the way the Brutii are i still needed to run to Greece fast and cuck them of that place's gigantic trade income

>>1609420
Greece is still insane because of Aegean trade, but it's not possible to conquer there unless you have a stake in the region or have already built your nation up.

In my Parni game, I found Persia and Central Asia to be fairly wealthy because of all the trade income (especially once you build roads).

the thing is ap slings would be to devastating when levels up
*chevrons are bugged and don't work like they should do

>>1609484
i think in rome 2 they throw at the same time when they are charging
earlier games they stop, throw, then charge

>>1609240
>Also, is there a way to set in custom rules like banning aircraft?
Edit alpha.txt (or alphax.txt), Ctrl+F for units you don't want like the Needlejet, and then change the prereq tech to "no" to make the unit unavailable. This works for other items like base facilities or special abilities, too.
I'd of course make a backup copy of this file first before editing anything. If you want to mess around with different sets of rules like this, make a custom scenario and then copy your alpha.txt into its directory.

Tbh Santiago is worse. Stupid bitch always ruins my start. Is there a way to prevent the late game from becoming ridiclous all v all death grind? I am surprised that some players felt like the AI is too peaceful, when in my experience it's quite the opposite.

>>1608512
Cleverstarcraftguy donated 3 dollars. Arty. There's a strategy I think you could benefit from. Instead of sending your SCV behind the mineral line, have him mine the side of the minerals that your command center is on. This will result in your scv returning to the command center quicker and make your economy more effecient.
