Well as Medieval is only £2.49 on Steam and the add-on but £5, I’ve bought them both solely to play this mod. Fingers crossed it’s as good as it looks.

Yes, the Nazgul are in the game as general units with really tough bodyguards (Black Numenorean Cavalry). They are incredibly tough and can rout your units with ease. You really need a hardcore general or absolutely vast and overwhelming numbers to bring them down.

Watchoo Tolkien about Willis?
Mad props to KG for mentioning the awesome War in Middle Earth, a game which still demands a remake, even if it was a cheating bastard of a game and the only way to complete it is to savescum on an emulator. (I’m talking about the 8-bit tile-based version with isometric battles, not the 16-bit one with pretty side-on graphics and abstracted battles)

Was a fun, well made mod. It’s a shame though that in sieges like in all total war games the only real enemy is the useless pathing and AI which kills more of my army then orcs ever will :(

It’s Tolkien, not Tolkein, Kieron.

Haha. Funny you should say that, because Empire’s representation of musketry is far closer to American Civil War levels in terms of devastation and accuracy and so on. Out of necessity, so that battles don’t last 6 hours, of course.

I don’t much care about Empires, I don’t care for the time peroid :P It isn’t that I don’t like guns ect I just would rather it be in a time peroid where guns are more advanced ( but still not too advanced) Like the American Civil War or something of that nature.

Dang you guys! After reading the wikipedia page for EU3 I think I’m going to have to get it now :P That co-op multiplayer mode where several people control a single country sounds pretty cool too.

So with this it is possible to start with a nation as earily as 1453 and play it all the way through until the French revolution and beyond? It seems like a lot of stuff could go wrong.

Interesting, I assumed it was a common thing. It happened that way in my first game (as France, no less, what fun is it to play France without religious wars?) and ever since I’ve been running one mod or another.
