Favourite kingdom and highest score...

[Elvain]

Hi everybody :hello:
let's create KoH hitparade

I would like to ask you to post here which kingdoms have you already played and what was your final score (Overall power). From time to time, I will update the list of kingdoms being played the most and, of course, highest rankings reached by the best of us.

To start, my first choice was Byzantia which I finnished some time ago, being elected emperor of Europe. I also Played for Armenia in early and Bohemia in the late (demo is not counted), but not finnished those games. Now I am trying to conquer Europe by Mongolian riders of Golden Horde...

-Still only sitting and watching how people talks about the Game and about the highest score...-

[Wamplet]

I played the game through once. Took about 3 Days.

I must say that I am quite fond of Leinster (Ireland). I want to play an Islamic Region later, but will probably try something like Wales tonight. :)

Also went through some of the single player quick matches. I lost all of them. \o/ Not used to doing the close-up fighting. In the campaign, I let them, auto-fight.

[Ivan_Vladislav]

well i dont remember any scores provinces count and so on ... but my largest kingdom was with golden horde.

[Tzar Ivan Assen II]

Norway and Bulgaria

[Lord Elric]

Bulgaria and Highlands/Scotland

[ulfn]

I have played through four times but am on the way with the fifth. These were the kingdoms I started from (all but one were won through the returning Emperor elections):

1. Wessex 1000 (-> England) (41 provinces) Easy
2. Sweden 1200 (32 provinces) Normal
3. Teutonic Order 1350 (21 provinces) Hard
4. Sweden 1350 (All Advantages, 14 provinces) Hard
5. The Latins 1350 (On the way, goal: All provinces (90 for the moment. Score: 13820)) Hard. The Latins, I think, are the most logical choice for a supreme ruler of Europe: Descendants to the Romans, and with a superior communication language at that time. (Patch: 1.03)

I have also played a lot of quick matches (20 or so), about 7 lost, mostly at Town assaults (Defender), which I have found most difficult. Sometimes I think the forces are badly balanced.

[Elvain]

Thanks...

Updated List of kingdoms we play the most:
3 Bulgaria
2 Golden Horde (1high)

1 Byzantia (early)
1 Armenia (early)
1 Bohemia (late)
1 Leinster/Ireland
1 Norway
1 Highlands->Scotland
1 Wessex (early)
1 Teutonic Order (late)

Highest score(no data yet):
??? - ulfn - Teutonic Order (late), hard, 21 - elected
??? - ulfn - Sweden (high), normal, 32 - elected
??? - Elvain - Byzantia (early), normal, 61 - elected
??? - ulfn - Wessex (early), easy, 41 - elected
??? - ulfn - Sweden (late), hard, 14 - All Advantages

So... under which banner are YOUR knights ruling Europe?
And what is YOUR highest score?5. The Latins 1350 (On the way, goal: All provinces (27 for the moment)) Hard. The Latins, I think, are the most logical choice for a supreme ruler of Europe: Descendants to the Romans, and with a superior communication language at that time.

I have also played a lot of quick matches (20 or so), about 7 lost, mostly at Town assaults (Defender), which I have found most difficult. Sometimes I think the forces are badly balanced.
Did you really play Latins in 1350? they are only in 1200, aren't they? but who cares... :)

To quick matches - defending an assault - it's hard to win, but once, when my enemy already had broken into my castle and I had only knight's squad left, I ran around the castle as long as his knight had only 5 men and all others were far, o I attacked him and won the battle (eventhough my enemy had over 3 times more men :))

To share something more. When I was elected emperor of Europe by Byzantia, I was very disapointed, cause it was only one vote of my ally Armenia, all others abstained and I was elected. There should be some limit I guess, at least 2 should vote for you before you're elected.

[Tzar Ivan Assen II]

Are you sure you have united England with Wessex?
I searched the pak files and saw that England could only be united by Normandy

[ulfn]

Did you really play Latins in 1350? they are only in 1200, aren't they? but who cares... :)


You are right. It should be 1200 (high). Sorry for the lapsus. :rofl:

[ulfn]

No, I didn't unite England, starting from Wessex (this is only the historical fact).
