When I play against heavy phalanx faction, I make sure to get 6 unit of velites, and I abuse their immobility. With some focus fire and triarii to defend against cav, the phalanx will take enough damage for my legionnaries to finish them off, with some sweet flanking attacks. Range units are the bane of phalanxes. So fun to turn on skirmisher mode and watch as they try to march in formation into a wall of missiles. I usually try to use calv(ironic I know) to flank around back to make them freak out a bit and try to about face, then smash into them with infantry or if they don't move I advance my infantry close enough to charge in after my cav hits them in the back to disrupt the phalanx formation.

That "bug" has been around in every tw to date just in rome 2 people realize it because you can siege and attack settlements with navies. | ||

Pretty sure it was fixed in previous TW's. It's the same with navies routinely surviving with very few survivors after a loss. They fixed that in Shogun 2 and I think in Empire as well. Rome 2 has a distressingly high number of previously fixed bugs come up again. | ||

Hopefully the hive minded hating will start to die down now. until I can play 50 turns Coop on a LAN without desyncing my partner my hate will not die down. Don't get me wrong, I love TW and I even like Rome II, but the state of the game at release (and including the current beta patch version) isn't worth a release. | ||

(Even though it seems pretty clear, atleast to me, that this game was released unfinished, to put it mildly.) I'm not saying the preformance bugs were not an issue for some people. What i am saying is that people being angry with preformance issues lead them to nitpick everything they did not like/were not used to about the game and chalk it up as a catastrophic failure to the TW series, when it was clearly something they did not fully understand or something that was just plain minor in most cases. | ||
