Thanks for the cast heir, really love the support. There were a couple of glitches, because I keep updating the mod, making tiny changes here and there sorry about that lol. None of the pikes really had attack orders spammed. Hope to get some games with you soon :)
+Ytsas45418 I seriously doubt the probability of a pike meta appearing. Pikes are still really bad due to their severe lack of killing power and mobility. Unless something is drastically changed, pikes wouldn't be OP. I think Blade's work over here on the pikes is definitely a good improvement.
Heir I really do appreciate how much often you upload , it's really nice to see almost every night there's a video for me to watch . Keep up the great work and hopefully I can see you in a Match one day ;)
Pikes already do that stepping forward move in Vanilla. They're also mostly useless in drawn-out spaghetti lines, something that most players seem to not notice.
I actually saw quite an improvement in pikes after playing with this mod yesterday. They were able to reform quickly and didn't derp when I clicked an attack order. They're not an "all powerful" unit, but they are definitely more viable with this mod. The only problem I'm seeing with this mod is having an adequate player population to sustain itself. But overall, very optimistic about this and would definitely encourage everyone to give it a try!
Have you tried ordering pikes to move to behind the enemy so they will walk towards them and then giving an attack order? I remember pikes in Medieval II worked well as long as you knew the tricks to commanding them, but only if.
I've tried them like that, because the pikes are modded to push more, ordering them to move behind results in them trying to push so much that they move into sword combat with the enemy, making them die quickly..
+R3GARnator vanilla it works kinda, the problem in vanilla is the opposite - pikes hardly ever push, so even if u use a movement order like that, it doesn't really work to the desired effect either.
hey i just bought this game and the wrath of sparta campaign. i have a few questions. one how long does it take to dowload it all my computer says 20 hours till complete and thats just for rome 2. my second is how laggy does it get? and my third question is since i bought the wrath of sparta campaign does that mean i can fight as sparta online now?
This is like Sports Center in February after the Super Bowl when there is nothing to talk about except LeBron and Steph Curry... LeBron Center... or Blade Master of Carthage. JK I love this channel.
Thoughts about CA deleting comments that are criticising the Pre-order dlc bonus? Don't know if you've already awnserd this, was away from RUclips for a while xd.

+Ytsas45418 not possible, the rules affect all pikes as one
+WOLFTotalWar damn lazy as CA

+Ytsas45418 Well, then it punishes sword spams and favours a build with at least a few skirmishers.
+Eddycurrents sword spams get boring. it's fun to play with people who are creative in ways to win their engagements
So glad I get to wake up every morning for an online battle, keep up the good work heir.
Good Faroese band.

It's much slower and much more unpredictable in vanilla.
+ZhengIsRight spaghetti lines are the only way your pikes won't get killed by skirmishers, but I am a bit annoyed many players do spaghetti lines
playing a new campaign as Odrysian Kingdom with the mod. definitely love the changes, especially reducing javelin volleys on cheap units

WOLFTotalWar But what about vanilla?
+R3GARnator vanilla it works kinda, the problem in vanilla is the opposite - pikes hardly ever push, so even if u use a movement order like that, it doesn't really work to the desired effect either.
What should I do\buy to play as various Greek factions? and small factions ?
It's amazing that Aronco/Blade managed to get Pikes to push in the first place. I wonder if that's through scripting or just some sort of AI change.
Wait I didnt understood what we have to do if we want to play with heir if Carthage?(ssry for the bad english)
Thumbs up for saying GMT time!
Put a link to your stream in your descriptions!

last question :I think yes. before u sleep , put the game for dowload .When u wake up the game is there

JK I love this channel.
love this mod!! can never find anyone to play though :/
When you play would it be vanilla or modded? i.e, D.E.I or, Blade Balance?
BB I'd imagine seen as its in the Bb steam group
Do someone know how to send some battles to Heir?
So to fixing pikes corrupts replays? I guess it wouldn't be a game centered around Italy without spaghetti code.
Shame about your time zone- effectively ends any chance to play with you in Brittania.
If I'm not mistaken.
How do we send you videos!!
heir how do you download total war?
first! Love you Heir! #nohomo
I was almost first
+Joshua Hornett third here
Damn you
heir you should tweet out before you look for battles you could play with subs and increase the population of battles LOVED THE VID HEIR
what is your steam profile name?
Can we get some live battles w chariots please
I didnt notice any difference :P Sorry Blade
+Bobi Tw true same feeling here bro
Thoughts about CA deleting comments that are criticising the Pre-order dlc bonus? Don't know if you've already awnserd this, was away from RUclips for a while xd.
In Warhammer that is.
can CA just make the final version of this mod official, i mean there would be no shame in it
+Alex Sitaras Well that would affect campaign aswell. And that might not be entirely helpful.
BigBadWolf the only issue would be pikes inflating numbers, but in campaign that really doesnt matter
Don't forget the Asian in Hawaii :)
It very good to be a Iowan
I live in Hawaii :D you've given me hope my wise trap lord I think I'm going to stalk your steam page now and see if I can hop in a game with you
Blade was Epirus not the boii
blade was boii
+chikifco And i actually won in this battle haha.Blade broke the replays :(
Bobi Tw so you were the epirus player? what a coincidence my battle is the next one as boii lol
yep lol
Damn i am from eastern Europe and i am +2GMT guess i dont have a chance :'(
+Bobi Tw just 5 hours
heir is -6 and i am +2 so that makes 8 hours ;)
Bobi Tw true, i was thinking in my hour
Ah well you got luck mate :)
i could defeat a roman with macedon, so this is way more balanced
Sorry other way around blade was the boii
Omg post your own replays there better
Omg listen to your master Heir, he told you what's what!!! Listen boy. He will post when he has time in his life.
Also "they're" not "there"
Go fuck yourself
+MevO ChevO There is no need for that.
Stop saying DERP ffs !!
