Kill them anyway, fuck the pope

Either cuck out, face excommunication, or just kill the pope, another option is to have your faction leader die.

Based, fuck the French

Excommunication isn't that bad

>HRE starts war with me
>barely holding against their assaults
>slowly take one town
>pope forces peace
>HRE starts more war
>again barely holding against
>take a city and lse it the next turn
>Peace again
>this keeps happening until I get sick of the Pope and continue my assaults and force the HRE into Italy
>Pope excommunicates me
>starts a crusade on my capital
>everyone including my allies attack me
bros...

The pope send the mission to both factions, you can just bait them and they'll get excommunicated, meaning it's their territories that will be free real estate.

>Stainless Steel
>Scot noble pikemen
>Took me a total of 18 turns to get TWO units of them
>Watch a general literally tardcharge face first into them
>Pikemen get decimated in a minute
Shit like this is why everyone think realismfags are unlikeable boy molesting fruits.

Stainless steel user, it "fixes" them by removing their secondary weapons alltogether.
While it have the side effects of making them retardedly deadly on walls, it work just fine on normal grounds.
The issue come from Stainless Steel buffing cavalry to absolutely fucktarded length, like I said you can charge spears and spikes head first and your men will come out of it just fine, and generals are even stronger, faction leaders are nearly unkillable.

> tfw still no Medieval 3

Fuck your Chinese and Warhammer Bullshit. We want Kino and SOUL not your shitty games

every fucking time

Total War's dead user, there's no going back. All we have left is to play the older ones forever.

China is fine. But I'm tired of the Warhammer bullshit and its thousands DLC.

>Pre Order medieval 2 total war NOW and receive the Blood and Piss DLC for free as well as Kangz portrait for your family members!
I'm not sure I want modern CA to make M3, user.

Why the fuck would you ally the perfidious a*glo? Drive them out of France and invade their shitty island.

Modern TW games are absolutely trash. You don't want Medieval 3, trust me.
Imagine William the Conqueror alone tanking the entire Anglo-Saxon army during the battle of Hastings, because that's exactly how the game would look like.

Someone hasn't been tithing.

>Englishmen
>christians
lol, they are basically satanists

Good, good, let the hate flow through you

What do you expect from (((anglos))) and the (((pope)))?

>plays M2TW
>believes alliances will hold for more than 3 turns before the AI spergs out and declares war out of nowhere
OH NONONO

>Be French
>Ever allying England
You did this to yourself

have this

>no general speeches because poc offensive bullshit
>no crusades because bowing to the mudslimes
>no jihad either
>women generals that arent jeane
>no agents,princess or diplomats at all
>hero units just because
>horrible performance
>badly done sieges
>more faction limited than 2
>historic revisionism to death

Napoleon was the last good game.

>1000 small countries
>HRE attacks me

This is one of the several reasons Medieval 2 is one of the shittier Total Wars.
>core system of the game ties everyone diplomatically via religion
>everyone is diplomatically non-functional
>religion-based diplomacy and diplomacy become irrelevant anyway
At least games like Shogun 2 or Warhammer don't try and pretend that people want to be friends, instead making it clear that you and everyone are going to shit on each other.

Lol excommunication doesn't matter in this game, just do whatever you want while training the maximum amount of priests. Eventually you will control the college of cardinals and auto 100% relationship every election.

I wonder if it would be worth anyone's time to make a competitor to total war

They basically have a monopoly over this genre

Hard to say, whoever try will have to work hard as fuck to show that they're actually making a good game in order to entice people to buy their product over CA's, it'd be similar to the sims deal.

Yeah I went to an indie game showcase once and I saw something that looked similar/cool and it was kind of a total war style game in a Rome setting but it focused mostly on logistics. I looked it up later and it got terrible reviews.

Probably either broken or too complex or not fun. Total War is the right mix of comfy and complex
