I've tried this a few times, but can't say I enjoyed it. The AI just trips over itself unendingly. I don't think the Romans could ever win vs a human opponent.

I agree with this which makes me think this is not a good representation of the battle. Anyway, I still cannot even beat the AI on this ...

Wow, pantherboy, that's pretty impressive, Thanks for playing through the scenario again and providing some tips. I would have never thought of things like turning on never evade with LF in order to battle alongside Legions against the cats.

Can't wait to try again.

Thanks,
Phillip

BTW Something seems... broken.... in this scenario... I noticed it long ago when FOW was ist introduced and it occured in both games I had tonite FOW basically turns itself on and off intermitently thru out the games turns... Any one else notice this? (has never happened in any other scenario ...

Ah, good. So it isn't just me! Thanks for all the replies. I'll try the battle again soon.

This is jumping the gun a bit, but if it proves virtually impossible to get a win as the Romans then I don't really think this battle can be called Tigranocerta anymore without some alteration to the scenario ...

Thanks for the reply, Morbio. That's a pretty sizable number of break points, but it cost you the game. I've had similar problems. I've gotten as high as 36 without losing (a draw). I've gotten a few more break points than 36, but I had to put myself at risk in order to do so and it cost the game(s ...

Hi all,

As a recent post indicated earlier, I just recently got FOG. It's quite addicting and I've been enjoying the game very much. I've also been spending quite a bit of time trying to best understand the system with all it's POA's, troop qualities, etc. Everything is going fine, but I want to ...

Thanks for the the reply, deeter.

I'll also look into this.

Cheers,
Phillip

Again, thanks to everyone for the replies. I appreciate the assistance. I'll keep all of your comments in mind as I play through some scenarios.

TheGrayMouser . . . forgive my mentioning the characteristic "discipline." I meant to write that it was a "superior" unit. I've since gone through and ...

Sorry, I forgot to ask. . . .

How does the program decide which units continue forward (TheGrayMouser's comments are a good start)? Is there a formula, base chance, etc.? In short, I would like to have some more concrete idea on how this is determined by the game. Knowing this will be helpful when ...

Thanks for the quick replies. I really appreciate it.

I understand the need to have pursuit rules, as well as anarchy rules for those less than disciplined warrior units (or other types of units outside of command range). I have no problem with, say, less disciplined units continuing pursuit in the ...

Hi All,

I recently received a copy of FOG with the ROR expansion for the PC for Christmas. I have enjoyed the game so far, but since I am not familiar with this ruleset some finer details are still being internalized. One question that I want to ask concerns units under my control automatically ...
