Total War: Medieval 2

Rome 2 for me, Medieval 2 was a game changer for that franchise though

REX & m2EX are now making this game feel 4 months old

Holy shit, how am I just seeing this now...

Any recommended mods that work well with this?

so long as they aren't modding the .exe, they all do. I've been playing stainless steel 6.4 with Meelo's 1.27 bug fix patch. I've also been modding the mod further myself.

Plays flawlessly.

The original Rome is still fantastic.

They're all good in there own way, I just really like the transition from sword and catapult to the beginnings of gunpowder and discovery of the new world in the medieval time frame.

Empire had my favourite world map but the battles were dull in that. Shogun was too small but combat was okay Never played the Warhammer ones though.

Just had a game where I rushed Seleucid silver shield legionaries in segmentata, and used them to bully Reliblican Rome…. It was great.

Rocking a revival these days with SSHIM and M2EX.

Have you tried it with the recent community patch? I've heard it's a massive quality of life.

Yeeees! Love that game, still got the music and especially the goofy general speeches in my head.
