Thanks for your interest! Im Dark Savant from the Discord. What I meant by your overuse of infantry is that in skirmish meta Light Infantry is a way better choice given all facts above. Your infantry can accomplish anything only against average players, which admittedly 90% of the game population, ...

Latest recent vids from this channel (uploaded a few days ago). https://www.youtube.com/@simonlancaster1815/videos Heres the preamble/addendum tho: Simons approach to analysis slightly out of context in all those vids. First of all players should know how particular units stack up against meta. Most...

FoG2 isn't written in Unity. Perhaps you are thinking of the original FoG? Cheers Pip Honestly I love your system. Allows to plan from the start, forces you to count enemy points, and actually there are many fun engine buggy quirky behaviors related to units visibility in BUAs, camera movements giv...

Was talking to a friend of mine during a game and the subject of streams came up. When they appear on a battlefield it seemed to us that they almost always go from east to west almost straight across the battlefield. Now that can sometimes cause the game to stagnate or to favour one side or the oth...

Making war pay for itself through plunder and raiding! So you got a Gain Character is that not useful? If I don't need extra Generals right now I hold that decision to produce a new Hair. I will play it if I don't have 2-x Generals and opponent has x-2 General in charge of the doom stack or they ha...

Note that are a few more unused resources you can see in Trade tab in the ledger. I guess you can use them in the mods.

I have to play Forge Claim because France is too far from our Capital. Lets burn the last witch in our court. Replace them by 2-x General possibly. I hire some units to hold off Poland stack. Double Shell Keep lvl 3 walls gonna help for sure. I won't be accepting Poland Peace deal obviously. My trad...

Possibly the last nation joins the war against us. Vassal and Pillage action has been generous. We continue to our invasion through to France plans and make sure that Vassal forces can catch up. Poland sneaky stack crept up on us. At least we have 100+ Power stack in our Capital that can fight them ...

We finally get the 2nd Mercenary Campaign decision in this campaign. We can get couple of knights or somewhat useless at this point light cavalry. At the same time our 2nd 2-0 General dies from the old age and we get 2 Claims for easy Diplomacy. I start requesting troops from the Vassal so they can ...

Wow, Peace Deal succeeds on the first attempt, which cut off some of our resource generation.. I split main stack into 2 and laid out path for the next 5 turns. We get unlucky with Pillaging attempt because someone Raided the region already. I play Spy on Nobility on somewhat decent character we got...

We temporarily fall into Red Tier, but don't lose a token. Both diplomatic exchanges go off, so we in red for 1 turn, which is not that significant, but notable enough. Talking Diplo all major nations except Seljuks (Mongols Vassal) and France went into war with us. I expect some more stragglers to ...

Another Daughter is born. I don't care about Heir because Uncle has fine stats for the ruler, so I will proceed to sitting on Gain Character RGD. We don't want to become Byzantine Empire, so I pitch Peace Deal with all regions except Constantinople and Crimea. The reason is heavily decreased Legacy ...

Forced March help us to do roundbout trip around Crimea. Couple of combats ensue for easy Ws. https://i.ibb.co/vvxDcXfq/1.jpg https://i.ibb.co/1Y96Fy7M/2.jpg https://i.ibb.co/5ggTxtKH/3.jpg https://i.ibb.co/QvZdNPLc/4.jpg https://i.ibb.co/ymnftqhS/5.jpg https://i.ibb.co/5Xqf1LQ3/6.jpg Diplo doesn't ...

It takes 8 Move Points to land in Crime in a single turn due to super port in Constantinople reducing Embarking cost to 1. Forced March helps us to boost 6 MP to 8. I hire extra 7 archers between 3 regions to pad up my 2nd cheapo slower stack. I roll the 2nd try on Seljuks region and extort 6 friend...

We rearrange our stack to include all Heavy Cavalry and supreme Heavy Units in the Assault of Constantinople. I pull up an extra Heavy Cav to embark to the mission of finishing off Crimea portion of Tmutarakan. We got lucky that Chernigov wasnt able to get one of our desired regions. I continue to b...

Witch Trail is shiny 2200 gold in my piggy bank. I Send Councilor to pull the last good character out of 30's zone. Spend my new cash on the 4 more Heavy Cav Mercs. I try to collect 2 more regions to fill out Anatolia 4 region province. Both Crusaders and Seljuks provide 30% chance. https://i.ibb.co...

Embezzlement trial pays 700 gold and get rids of treacherous character. My super King health degrades, storytellers praise our deeds. I cast another Spy on Nobility on the last Character with unknown loyalty. Very wealthy unloyal Character will be Burned on Witch Trial next turn. I unleash my halfba...

I use RGD to remove Thief Gang and renovate another region. Hospitaliers agree to exchange regions 2nd time. I use the opportunity to get rid of low Loyalty low Quality characters. I try to get Capitals of Hospitaliers or Crusaders to refill my coffers. New provinces hire 6 Heavy Cavalry units and 5...

I hire another backup via NonStandard units to make up for the future attrition. As expected main stack of Tmutarakan tried to conquer neutrals. Unfortunately when we cross our path random order puts us as Defenders. The issue is that they have Seasoned Defensive spears and 2 Defense generals. At le...

Daughter is born, but I won't be using Gain Character cuz our roster is fine and Successor has nice stats. We get 1 Claim naturally and I forge 3rd one artificially. We try to gain 2 key regions via Diplomacy 2nd time. Besides that I add a few begging propsals to extort nations we are in good grace ...
