    Why is the unification so negative financially? Is it just the loss of a couple of King’s Purses or some in game screw job on player accounts?

    • @epmtotalwar
      @epmtotalwar  Před rokem +1

      The AI cheats on money. It never goes negative and gets reset each turn with 500 or 1000 gold so if you inherit Gondor and DA you don't have those cheats.
      Edit: So the AI can keep producing troops even though they don't have the cash flow to support them. This is how factions that have 1 settlement left can support multiple stacks, they get a base income each turn if they go bankrupt.

      Have you got the alliance with Dol Amroth and Gondor? Does Gondor hold Minas Tirith? Also, it can take more than a couple of turns. From what I understand, it's a little like destroying the ring, sometimes it takes 2 turns, sometimes it take 6.

    You know your army upkeep is sup to your global income I would say even IF YOU HAVE THE MONNEY you must not augmenting the army upkeep by recrtuiting mercenary but merge and retrain your existing units and place all your units in settlement or fort
    The units who are free upkeep in settlement must stay in settlement not going to the front

      Did you try giving settlements for Alliance? It really helps if you border them, so give them a settlement that borders you then they are more likely to accept and you'll get the settlements back after the script.

      @epmtotalwar  Před 7 měsíci

      I honestly don't know if that means you cannot complete the script. If you were allied with them when they were destroyed maybe it would still work. I know diplomatic standings used to persist past faction destruction but that may have been a bug that was fixed. Maybe it was coded so that you could still complete it and just unite with Gondor. Give it a go I guess, sorry for not knowing.

    After the message of the Reunited Kingdom the priority was to destroy the military recruitement building of Gondor and Dol Amroth and replace them by yours
    not to recruit mercenaries ,
    The other priority is to place a general in every settlement you have to boost your global income and maximize your free upkeep in settlement or fort to minimize your army cost
    You have to play the defensive until your are ganning monney each turn to have army on the field like you play your Gondorian Campaign

      Just watching it back, that is a play I've made 100's of times, generally, the javelins are not thrown before the cav hits the line. I did route a unit off the field as well. It didn't too well this time but it's a percentage chance of success and generally the chances are high. I also hadn't quite registered that there there EW units in the Dunland army. I think if I hadn't skirmished at all and turned off fire at will it would have gone a lot better as they wouldn't have gone into loose formation.
