Wherein many many people are killed, and screenshots are taken.
If you haven't read the post below this, do so now, then come back.
So, I'm still fighting a lot of Germans. But first, random screenshots.
Here's Massilia, the biggest city in southern Gaul. It's currently almost being attacked by barbarians, except I kicked their asses so then it wasn't.
Here's the site of a great battle between myself and the Gauls back in the day. Yes, it marks these things. Yes, that's awesome.
So anyway, I fought these Germans. Or rather they fought me. There was a first army that attacked, and note those spears there up front, and I beat that with seriously heavy losses amongst the hastati. And just when I'm thinking "I better retreat that army, it got thrashed," here comes a second army, which proceeds to attack. Well, in the end, I beat it and chased down the survivors, after which my velites were doing ok, but I had maybe 15 hastati and whatever cav you see in that picture. I'd also like to take a moment to point out a particularly awesome feature of the RTW camera, which is that if you press delete while a unit is selected, the camera will follow that unit. This is especially cool when cav charging, as you can see.
Now I'm going to go shoot bots in BFV.
Posted by Dwip at September 28, 2004 11:57 PMYeah, dude. I always use DEL and follow around my general unit which I usually bring up on the rear of the enemy units and hunt down the routers who flee from my hastatii cohorts. It's ... orgasmic.
What a game, what a game.
