forts size should be proportional to the army size

They've shown the barbarian forts to be circular, variety looks great! Just wish they're weren't so many open routes, with there we're only 4 openings or have gates.

The Roman Castra is SO famous.. I wish they fleshed it out a little bit more.

Yeah, that's the kind of detail I was hoping for. Awesome thing is though that with the new MOD tools announced you can make your own custom battle tiles for use in the campaign. So someone could make this a reality : )

The best part of this new kind of forts, for me, is that they funnel attacks in such a way that you have more time to play with. Time to see what kind of units are forming up, the direction of their attack, and have time to prepare for receiving them. Much more dynamic and fun than walling off indestructible walls of timber with praetorian spam..

something they should do is make the size of the fort vary based on the size of the army (cause a small army wouldn't have a huge fort)

You know that you can burn down this fort with 4-5 shots from an onager? It's possible the AI does not know about that.

It looks cool I cant wait till next Tuesday. I wish they would stop the general from suicide charging ppl though. They should try to program him so he joins the battle but is more support unless needed.

I think the tents should fall when walked on but the outer wall should of course say together unless siege weaponry is used.

I wish the AI wouldn't always attack in the fog

Rwn should be a wha to make is less thick so you can actually see

Are you gonna do a campaign when Atilla is out (so basically now)? I really like your style of playing. You were the first total war youtuber I watched, with you Parthia legendary campaign. But when that series stopped (because you got slaughtered :D ), I went on to other youtubers. I would really enjoy a new campaign by you!

It does look like an improvement over the R2 forts. Those things were kind of restricted and did not allow for much maneuvering, both getting in and keeping attackers out. This one looks like you can at least set up an interior defensive line and just let the AI come right in to break upon your lines as they continue getting pounded in their flanks and rear by the ballista towers (which I'm sure that a human player would make sure his archers take out first).

should link this one to the campaign video

How do you get forts in Total War: Attila? I have Western Roman armies in defensive mode for multiple turns along the Rhine, Danube, etc., but when they're attacked there's no fort. It's just a normal open battlefield. All I get Is a few deployable obstacles and such.

+Pags i have found that if your too close to a river it will be a river battle not a fort battle. but you still get deployables. personally i prefer fort battles to river battles so i back my armys up a bit or cross over

nice general feed

What is that thing where the huns army was before they attacked?

My visigoths game is circular. I really like the square tho

Hmm, a bit improvement but i still got shocked how CA still put forts or fortress very simple as usual. In case for the Romans for example, they shouldve put a typical unique castra design, a complex n strong one made from stone. I have this personal idea for this cause like if the barbarians have camp options why dont i put the same thing on civilized factions, only this one we can build a complex fort w/ development lvls such as 1st lvl is made from wooden palisade then after some turns we can upgrade to brick or stonewall. This is very logical idea right ? I still a bit disappointed after this. This fort is only barbarian type. CA should put more on forts design.

I agree on that. Being able to build forts up like low tier cities would be really cool, but you should not be able to take it with you as with the barbarian camps, as it is imposible to take walls with you, but the upgrades should still apply. This would make for a far more interesting campaign I think, as it would require even more strategic thinking.

I don't know how it happened historically, but isn't such a fort just a place an army builds when they stay in one place for a few weeks/months? I don't know if they would build it out of stone immediately. How I see it, it is more some sort of reinforced encampment.

@raymondbenjamins5884

Djosjowa I think (not 100% sure) they would build a wooden wall or something like that first, and when they would stay longer they would improve the defenses.

Raymond Benjamins they did every-time the Roman army marched they would construct a wooden wall. While the huns form a massive wagon circle. although such a system would be nice

Anyone, please help! My specs: GPU: GeForce GTX 860M CPU: i5 4210M CPU@ 2.60GHz 8 gigs of ram. I can only run attila on max performance. What could i get to increase the way attila looks and get it so it wont lag?

how did you deploy the stuff? when I drag the thing it doesn't deploy on the map

Where are the gates?? What is ca doing? I'm so glad I didn't buy this game yet. Thank you for making this video , this way I know 1 of 3 of my hopes are crushed lol. Plus the troops still run over the tents and with no gates the Huns will crush the hell out of most armies lol. I hope they improve this and how can rome 1 have the best forts? It's so true and it's sad. But the size is cool.

keep in mind that Romans would set up decisive positions when they stooped marching all they did with this is build walls and keep guards at the entrance. but this is just the roman plus think how long it will take to build workable defensive gates in 1 night.

Yeah true, i don't think there should be gates, but maybe a raised wall with a ditch? The most simple of things that was very effective and it isnt even in the game.

Seems that in every battle for Attila there's a bunch of fog everywhere.. What's up with that?

Replace "o" with "a" for lots of fun.

The battle moves so fast! Arrows look pretty innefective to me too :(

I would disband all that expensive infantry in favor of more pike militia

Huns? how the hell did you got them atack you in 396??? i i'm 400 and i have + relesion ship with them and i'm playing on hard what dificulty you are playing?

it isnt a fort its an encampment and also rome has a different style to barbarian ones

could you play this on custom battles

how do I build a fort?

Seriously, not even Emperor Edition R2 in multiplayer is that much of a clickfest for a 4 minute battle. Of course, we might simply just play differently, but I am still worried about the unit morale.

Why are the battles so misty ? looks terrible.

Because the AI would much rather attack in conditions that play in its favor. I've dealt with this playing each game all the way back to medieval 2. And Rome 2 is a poor excuse to use, the AI in that game is on par with a brutish monkey that believes it's a good idea to just throw random armies at you in plain daylight because they want absolutely no chances at beating you. This mechanic is nothing new, it's just being taken advantage of more often by the AI who seem to be of the horde nature. Which honestly wouldn't be too far off of what such groups would do in real life. Believe me, I don't enjoy the mist/fog on the field, but it's nothing new.
