I think declaring a unit that's fought down the very last man to have been 'routed' is a little harsh, personally.

That's genius!
Nice result, gives me a biot of an itch to play again...

I look forawrd the day when you finish the game with only the Legate!
This is wonderful.

For Jupiter's sake, this is insane... :-O
And I'm not only commenting the fact that you've casually broke the 1147k with what is essentially a meme build, but the sheer dedication AND the analytic work... wow! O_O


The ‘four casualties healing threshold’ is a major factor
I believe so, I guess ...

Thanks for your kind words, and see you in the future!
Cheers!

moj, you speak the truth, you hit the nail on head once again. It's exactly that, the fact that once we become too good at something, and once we're too obsessive about that, it sucks out lot of fun, and it may turn the GAME into a JOB or at least PROJECT. That's bad, really bad.

I've had this ...

Wrote the following but can't make coherent sense of the 'lessons' it contains, although it basically reinforces things we already know about the power of the aux...
Still trying to get my head around the ebb and flow of scoring comparative to other attempts at various points in the campaign, but ...

moj, I am finally able to post my last result, but reading your AARs made me realize that my efforts lost all the relevance. This one also ended with a really pathetic result, and it wasn't even that much entertaining gameplay, as the core was badly thought-out and horribly managed. I made some ...

moj, you're going overboard with these challenges! :-D
What's next, Twin Freaks? :-D

I don't have any explanation for the fame results, I know that with that few guys you simply don't lose much fame, but I'd guess that the battles must have been longer than usual, so I'd expect a lot of bleeding ...

moj, this is simply crazy... :-O

I finished my "normal" run on weekend, and it was a bit weird experience, moreover not quite satisfactory. I'm not able to write too much right now, much less play the game, and I'd also like to try the sandbox that you wrote about, so there won't be any news from ...

I'm just going to stare very hard at a one-on-one engagement at lowest speed; not sure that counts as 'testing'! If I ever harbour thoughts of actually recording an engagement and studying it repeatedly I'll know it's time to stop playing...

Hello there, my name is Aleksandr and I'd love to know ...

The Affinity InDesign/Illustrator knock-offs are fine, but Photoshop... I think I’ve tried half a dozen alternatives, and none of them ‘work’ for me. I guess if I was forced to use one for a month I’d get used to it, but the workflow/adjustments seem so alien/clunky when compared to Photoshop. Many ...

Yeah. Bastards. I bought the final version of Creative Suite at a decent discount before people realised the full horror of the Creative Cloud model, but it won’t run under the most recent versions of MacOS. Have been looking for a Photoshop alternative for over a year but I can’t find one that I ...

I was just pleasantly surprised to discover the game still worked! Am running MacOS 10.14, which was released in September 2018, because it's the latest version which (99%) supports my ancient retail version of Adobe Creative Suite. I'm buggered if I'm going to pay Adobe £££ a month for Creative ...

Ah, I was wondering how people were magically posting those stats dumps!

Each time I press F1 it creates a new file named Reports\report[number].txt but sadly these files appear to be empty, and a file size of 16 bytes suggests they are indeed 'blank'. Had a search of the forum to see if anyone ...

Will respond to the above next week, but I thought I'd just drop my jaw in here... :o

This is an absolutely crazy yet wonderful idea! Do I need to try the Four Horsemen Of Apocalypse challenge? :-D
I also love how this brought back memories (and thread!) back from Nov 2007, this is some real ...

Aw bless! Good to hear that you survived. You are, as my grandmother would have said, a ‘brave little soldier’.
Hehe, thanks! :-D


Hell, not me. Having to steer them into position then steer them back to safety would be a no-go with my lack of ‘drill’. Also, getting them to the level where they ...

We're waiting!

Oh, hi there and thanks for your interest! I had a serious man cold in the past days, but now I'm back in strength again! :-)
I got the promised stuff ready, and then I'll try to address your Iron Man related ideas. Hopefully I won't forget anything important.


Auxiliary ...

You make it sound so tempting! Will give it a go, some time.
It's one of the better and safer ways how to use the cavalry. Horsemen tend to have big losses, at least until they can get the three big items: Sarmatian Cav Armour, Teutonic Horses and Ach. Armour. They are also my sole heavy unit ...

I don’t block or dodge at all! I can’t imagine playing Malventum now without at least one expert anti-ele standing in the river.
I train the Block and/or Dodge and/or Missile Protection only after the unit has GM Swordsman (this gets them cool stuff), Master Endurance, Feint, Anti-Inf, anti-Cav ...

Have finally managed to find the save game’s location on my Mac. The filenames don’t reflect the name seen in Legion Arena itself (ie ‘Save_40_.dat’ rather than ‘post-Pydna.dat’) but are presumably renamable.

It would take a lot of dedication to truly explore the differences between skill paths ...
