***** merging is when you select 2 units and move the majority of one unit into another in order to consolodate and have one stronger unit rather than one weak one
1:11 This is because the building used to be a site of a victory point. I think big buildings were also meant to be points for archers to rain down physics projectiles (i.e. arrows), but the feature was cut for some reason (perhaps time constraints, game-breaking bugs or balancing issues).
Forgot about #'s 1, 4, and 7, and didn't know about #'s 3, 5, and 6. I particularly like #3. I kind of wish there had been more buildings like that. I like having my troops in cool defensive positions. Or could you imagine if we had been able to put skirmishers on rooftops or something? Of course, it'd probably have been screwed on launch, and it'd be something you'd only do once the enemy had taken your walls or during a minor settlement battle, but still.
No need to spam orders for pikes, just click the unit while in phalanx attack mode, and put there destination behind enemy unit. They get run through quickly
+Total War Zone I knew about the infinite agents thing. One of the many things i didnt like about Rome 2. Planning on making any 10 things about attila or something? :) Like top best faction?
7 => The trick is to make fleets of artillery (because they are the best ship in the game) and to disembark the general when the morale start dropping. The general unit is generaly quite heavy and can survive until the end of the timer and if it is not the case just disembark all the other units and you should win
I've been using the attack command with pike's. Noticed that when I pressed it they made like a little "charge" and instantly killed a bunch of people. But I had no idea of the Merging :O Been so irritated for not having a merge option and now after 400 hours of game time, you say how. haha :D
That eastern building you can get on it.. hold on, why didn't someone though about this... It has a function, a function that allows units to get in it just like on walls, why not put that function on most buildings in the game? Like a mod, like...that greek map where it's a rock, and there are buildings on it, yeah, why not give it the function that the eastern building has? Or in cities, with flat roofs, they can have it too, but I doubt it would hold more than one unit of archers Like, you can defend the cities from building to building, put a group of archers in it, then some melee units around it to defend it
I actually knew about 8. In fact, if you can pull it off and get a ton of spies, and I do mean a ton, you can do the agent spam method by poisoning soldiers and get every unit down to the red before you attack. Try it! You'll feel like an AI! Just worse! (I found this out because I was so pissed at AI agent spam I decided to solve the problem. What happened was I learned manipulation had a higher % chance. Maybe it's just positive outcome only, but still hilarious)
What most people don't know you can have up to 100 units with editsf if your computer can handle it. With DEI I'm fighting 16,000 vs 24,000 battles. Battles with this take 30min-1 hours.
Unlimited agents - perhaps some path changed it because when u reach your limits the manipulated extra enemy agent is killed instead of joining your ranks. Since manipulating has a much more higher chance of success than killing, I use that to kill enemy agents more easily
2 more things some people don't know. 1. You can upgrade all of your units at the same time instead of 1 at a time. Use ctrl and click the just the units you want, or hold down shift and click two units (all the units in between will highlight). While a lot of people know this, I'm always surprised to watch TH-cam videos and see players click one at a time. 2. You can cycle through the provinces by clicking the little arrow next to the province window. Again, many people (should) know this but there's even an elite TW gamer that doesn't do this in his different TW games and spends long minutes looking around when he could simply go province by province.
Uh for number 7, I've won numerous battles because I had a full fleet against enemy land forces, and I just landed one or two of the ships if my troops started wavering, which reset the "we don't have any land units" mentality. This, by the way, was for one hour long defenses too.
What I hate about Total war rome 2, is that people say the AI sucks, which is correct, but there are a shit ton of mods to improve that, then you've got DeI, the cheat mods, unit mods, (like the etuscan mod which i enjoyed) and then there's the mods like Constantine: rise of Christianity, and also a mod, which let's you play in historical places like cannae! stop hatting rome 2, and get some freaking mods!
Also did you know that Rome II was in fact a beta test, at full price, for Attila Total War. That DLC certainly will have helped CA with the development of unplayable factions in Attila.
i won a battle against carthage as rome doing the naval camping. I lost all 4000 of my inf to their 7000 men but i had my fleet still. I realized only 5 mins where left in the battle and it was a regular beach battle not a siege. My men started to waver but the ai started walking all over the map so i docked a ship and they stopped wavering. You need to have atleast one unit on the ground to stop the wavering so with a big fleet you can run down the clock.I won but i only had 4 mins left to run out.
I knew number 3 every bulçding that has those entrances can be used like the ones with rome and greece I think but WOW I'VE PLAYED TOTAL WAR SINCE ROME AND NEVER KNEW THAT YOU COULD MERGE UNITS!!! (Still pointless cuz once healed you have 2 units and back in Medeival II it was good to keep and army adn economy in shape). Naval camping was possbible before update and I couldn't do it always found it to be too cheap agaisnt AI (but the fleet shouldnt die upon defeat c'mon the sea isnt blocked by ghosts neither swimming around the city coast to block the entrance). Number 5 I would like to know this behaviour with other units.
I had a question I want to give my PC upgrade but it must be suitable for rome total war 2. So I would be allowed to know what processor and video card you have Greetings jelle
why does everybody try to use pikes with the renaissance era push of pike tactic rather than the way Alexander the Great used in the hammer and anvil where the pikes pin enemies down as the anvil and using a high damage unit like shock cavalry, javeliners or swordsmen as the hammer by attacking the tied down enemy on the flank or better in the rear
*3 years later* the scale of battles in this game aren't enough to realistically set up a hammer and anvil. Usually, any cavalry you have are countered by enemy Cavalry. Also, units in real life will break after 20% casualties while units in TW only break after 80% or more casualties. That latter point is actually one of the biggest flaws in TW games. Battles yield extremely high casualties for both sides regardless of who the victor is. This also makes hammer and anvil tactics wildly less effective in game because you'll lose your hammer (cavalry) long before the enemy units actually routs.
@@speakdino10 I’ve crushed an elite unit of oathsworn with two legionaries units one from the front and one from the back which resulted in me losing like 1-2 guys before the enemy broke. If you’re fighting head on and it says “combat even” then yeah you’re gonna lose men at roughly the same rate. I try not to put my men into positions that they can’t win decisively
@@Constance_tinople Hey there! Glad to continue the yearly response thread hahah. I agree. I usually try my utmost to avoid evenly matched armies/units. Although, I've never had an enemy unit, especially Oathsworn, rout without substantial casualties even with front and rear charging units you mentioned. Slightly related note, this is why I greatly like the Darth Mod for Empire TW. In that game, units can rout after 10% casualties, and chain routing becomes a very real and dangerous reality if you're not careful. And if the enemy doesn't have cavalry to chase you down, casualties are significantly less. I don't remember if Divide et Impera for Rome 2 does the same.
@@speakdino10 I’m glad we can have such a nice discussion! I’ll have to check it out however I’m not sure. I think the reasons the elite units I face can rout so fast is that I usually harass them prior to the engagement with as much pilum/ slinger fire possible as well as them usually being the last unit to engage thus already suffering the “army losses” penalty. I do remember one time pulling off a Cannae against an Egyptian force which resulted in their pikemen panicking due to not having one direction to face
Babylon by the time of rome 2 was largely abandoned, with most of population moved to Seleucia-on-Tigris. Realistically Babylon should initially in the game would be a minor settlement with Secleucia being not just the capital of the province but also the capital of the Seleucid Empire. I liked Europa Barbarorum mod for Rome 1 for its serious research and excellent at balancing fun gameplay and historical accuracy, its much better at this than both Rome 2 and Rome 1
I mean you can get post Marian reform legionaries 200+ years before they actually existed so I don’t think the primary goal is historical accuracy, which it shouldn’t be in all honesty. I think historical authenticity is better for games like total war where they do the best they can while reserving creative freedom to make the game fun
I didn't know about 3. Cool that on the ziggurat (smal, but always) can be set soldiers, a very good place to defend. One unit of elite spearmen + archers / slingers and no one breaks inside :D P.S. Can you spare one of the following videos for wonders of the Wrath of Sparta campaign?
Jan Kowalski I was going to do that but it takes time to conquer the entire map and I don't even think that the wonders are represented on the battle map, so maybe a boring video
A few data ago i was attacked in a city by a massive army where i only had a small navy and i won even though they captured everything.. Yes my ships started to surrender BUT that was when It was 55 minutes in or so. So i headed to shore far from the city and then my whole fleet stopped to surrender. And when the timer ran out i won.. they tried the same for many turns until my army arrived.. lol
Fyi it would be better to say "that's why this video might not be as good as the others" instead of saying it might be worse. Subtle differences in word choice can change the connotation drastically.
hahaha i forgot about the capturing siege equipment thing and when i saw artillery in my army i was like... wait wtf when did i recruit catapults ??? haha xD
So, important question: If you merge two units of differing ranks (experience), what happens? Do they merge to the high rank, the low rank or does it find a center?
One thing they need to fixs is the history of Africa cause they not accurate about it. They also missing the ancient kush empire and others great Africa empires plus Carthage was Africa Hannibal was African. But that would be nice to see if they can fix that.
rebellions arent bad as long as they arent showing up every turn^^ but the primary reason the multiple rebellion bug appears is ussualy due to hostile agents
When attacking the city of Athens the Parthenon very rarely shows up. Does anyone know why this happens? Do you have to wait until the Athenians build a certain structure?
I've known about cntrl M before but for some reason sometimes my guys won't merge. Any idea what's going on? And yes I am trying to merge the same type of units together
How come everyone's game looks better than mine on youtube, even when I max out the graphics settings? Is it resolution? I play on 1680x1050 on 20'' monitor...
Guys i have an issue that around the time when the fighting starts in a multiplayer battle both players lose connection and there is a text saying that we desynced. I would be very very gratefull for someone who got a fix for this problem. :D
simontigerhajen I had that before. I fixed it by removing the Rome 2 folder in appdata/roaming/thecreativeassembly You will lose your saves by doing this though so you should back-up them!

They become one unit. So if you have two half strength units and mere them, you get one full unit and only pay for one instead of the two half full units
WHAT THE F****!!! YOU CAN MERGE UNITS!!
***** Late to the party! :p You should check out the video WarriorofSparta made. Link in the description.
***** I just watched it hahaha
in all total war games it was possible to merge units as i remember it :D. but just i dont do that if i dont need a stronger mercenary unit.
hugothester ikr i felt like having sex for the first time
yes you can
400 hours and i never knew about merging god damn it
+Glacier Slayer Welcome to the club
+Glacier Slayer fail xD
Glacier Slayer what is merging
***** merging is when you select 2 units and move the majority of one unit into another in order to consolodate and have one stronger unit rather than one weak one
Glacier Slayer holy fuck. can I do this on the mid of an battle? to help the morale of an unit?
Nearly 1000 hours Rome II.. never knew about the merging. I really missed it !
And after 5 years I finally know how to merge units , thanks.
LoL. Really!?
Lol, i play it 7 years and i just know it now

Navy attacks on coastal towns are op in Attila in that you can attack over and over with arti at no loss of men and ended all battles in a draw.

Had a 21/20 army before, but thought it was a bug. Kept using it though, because it helped quite a bit. Leuke video Total War Zone; vooral doorgaan!
Nails Haugh Thanks :D
The agent thing is also in Attila and it makes the ere spooky powerful as they can fund all the attacks in mid to late game
When 2 rebel armies for one city exist, are they the same faction?
11. You can receive settlements as gifts if you send politicians on diplomatic missions.
really?
Yep
But its random, if target faction have many settlement you wont know which one they'll give to you.
i'v got empror edition and all the cities are the same u_u
Also did you know that Rome II was in fact a beta test, at full price, for Attila Total War. That DLC certainly will have helped CA with the development of unplayable factions in Attila.
i love how people didnt know that merging existed even though its been in every single total war game ever

There is a button to merge unit, you dont have to press ctrl-M , you just need to press the Merge button

That's Attila

Didn't know about the merge one that would have helped out when i played the game
So, important question: If you merge two units of differing ranks (experience), what happens? Do they merge to the high rank, the low rank or does it find a center?
Finds a centre. However if the merging units are 3 and 2 chevrons then it's most likely that the overall squad will drop to 2 chevrons
OhhFG Thanks!
I guess I was the only true Rome 2 player, none of this was new to me.
Where's the hanging gardens of Babylon?
One thing they need to fixs is the history of Africa cause they not accurate about it. They also missing the ancient kush empire and others great Africa empires plus Carthage was Africa Hannibal was African. But that would be nice to see if they can fix that.
Carthage was Phoenician. Phoenicians are native to the middle east, they migrated into Africa. They recently added Kush as a dlc.
interesting...
in 1 of my LP attempts i had 4 rebellions in athens some even less then a turn after another rebellion without them being destroyed
m4j0rfr34k Ye, exactly, weird.
rebellions arent bad as long as they arent showing up every turn^^ but the primary reason the multiple rebellion bug appears is ussualy due to hostile agents
Can you merge units? :O It was the only thing I didn't know
They must have patched the merging as it's clear as day now.
WOT U CAN MERGE THEM
What DLC is that @ 3.30?
Very nice video I really enjoy it :) sorry for the bad English
Amro Alkathiri Thanks mate! Don't worry about English, I'm not the best either. :p
isn't Persepolis also a unique city ?? in the game
I think almost every RTW player knew these things
well... i knew the ctrl m thingy, but the rest i didn't know
I did not understand number 10, perhaps it's your accent. Can somebody write what happens with those rebellions please?
How to do duel ? In campaign?
When attacking the city of Athens the Parthenon very rarely shows up. Does anyone know why this happens? Do you have to wait until the Athenians build a certain structure?
Nope, it's a random Greek map unfortunately. It just looks like the Parthenon but it shows up on multiple locations.
Ahh ok! Thanks for clarifying :)
Athens does have a unique map, but only if the city's size is fully maxed out. The same goes for Carthage.
I've known about cntrl M before but for some reason sometimes my guys won't merge. Any idea what's going on? And yes I am trying to merge the same type of units together
BigMackWitSauce The only thing I know is that you are doing it wrong, haha. You need to click 2 units to merge them.

Guys Babylon is not on the map becuase it was destroyed by the Assyrians long Before the persians became an empire.
The Assyrians? What history book have you been reading mate
Yea sry i know i was wrong.
How come everyone's game looks better than mine on youtube, even when I max out the graphics settings? Is it resolution? I play on 1680x1050 on 20'' monitor...

Guys i have an issue that around the time when the fighting starts in a multiplayer battle both players lose connection and there is a text saying that we desynced. I would be very very gratefull for someone who got a fix for this problem. :D
simontigerhajen I had that before. I fixed it by removing the Rome 2 folder in appdata/roaming/thecreativeassembly You will lose your saves by doing this though so you should back-up them!
***** Works now, thank you! :D :*
simontigerhajen No problem mate :D

Eric Nordyk I'm really not a pc expert, so you're better off looking somewhere else, but the Graphics Card looks like a problem to me! Check out some forums, the minum specs, etc.! :)
Eric Nordyk yes probably, but it won't be the best. It'll just be ok
How do you merge units in RTW?
Roman BV In the original Rome you can just drag the unit cards on top of each other. In Rome 2 it's control-M
I knew of all :P. Lot of playing.
Ernesto Gamez IV Nais!
CONTROL + N WTF !!!!
But how can you capture a sige Weapon?
Sebi Salagean random luck

Ha Pham I've played almost probally the same or more and I would never figure out you need to teach people total war :)
what happens when you merge unit

They become one unit. So if you have two half strength units and mere them, you get one full unit and only pay for one instead of the two half full units
Jij bent 100% nederlander haha
