about rhodoks, again (for TW)

[tashim72]

two things please do:

1. empower vet spearmen (clubs were more useful)
2. vet crossbowmen and their leather caps - bad; you can also give them standard board shields

p.s. please be faster with a patch

 

[Caba`drin]

You've been around long enough to learn a few things here...

1) There is a forum for a post like this: The Privy Council-Make Suggestions.
2) You can EASILY do it yourself: Morgh's Tools.
3) Addressing a post to Taleworlds and demanding a patch in this manner is beyond bad form.

 

[tashim72]

i'm not demanding, why everyone so hostile

 

[w00d]

you can change it yourself, as the above poster pointed out, u can mod the rhodoks so they can like fly with their underwear on the outside wearing a cape and shoot laser beams as well. It is pretty easy. Just tweak it to out u like it, single player is single player and it is up to you.

 

[Lord Brutus]

My spider sense tells me that English is not the OP's first language; hence some terminology that we might consider demanding. Still, as Caba'drin says, there is a forum for suggestions to improve the game, which is where the original post belongs.

To the OP, please remember that you may be alone in believing what you suggest is an improvement.

 

[tashim72]

a warm reply, thank you

but, please agree, these mini-glaves are acting like spears (in close combat it's useless, they get easiely kill'd)
also, honestly, i think rhodoks are deserving for something better than +10 leather caps.. one huscarl's hit from above - guaranteed death

edit:

rhodoks should be not far from nords in infantry combat

 

[Lord Brutus]

I must confess a lack of familiarity with the equipment of all Rhodok troops. That said, I do not look forward to battling Rhodok sergeants or sharpshooters, but the spearmen do feel underpowered. Whether this is by design or not, I do not know, but not all Nord troop types are as menacing as huscarls, so you can not directly compare veteran spearmen to huscarls.

 

[tashim72]

absolutely correct

..if spearmen would fight with their spears at appropriate distance (smart AI) it would be good; if different nation's AI would be different - it would be even better

p.s. rhodoks' low-lever troops are the weakest in game
p.p.s. totally no complaint about sergeants - outstanding, best unit in its class

 

[Mallissin]

I think a better complaint is for the AI to be updated to use polearms appropriately. Examples:

I'm charging a horde of archers and all my cavalry have their swords out. WTF? Get the lances out and get some couch damage, morons!

I'm charging a horde of spearsman and they all have their one-handed weapons out. WTF? Do a better job trying to kill me, morons!

I'm charging a horde of Rhoducks and all the crossbows are lined up next to the spearsman. WTF? Get behind them so they can block for you, morons!

But yah, tweak the soldiers using Morgh's Tools like Caba'drin suggested if you want them to have clubs again.

 

[Kleidophoros]

Tashim, here is your latest 3 threads;

I think that Rhodoks Vet Spearmen got worser. That "mini-glaive" shouldn't be used as a spear alike weapon (remove/change).

-Tashim

fix rhodoks vet spearmen

two things please do:

1. empower vet spearmen (clubs were more useful)
2. vet crossbowmen and their leather caps - bad; you can also give them standard board shields

p.s. please be faster with a patch

Posting the same thing over and over again with no real feedback/suggestion will not make the "fix" any faster or better.
