The first steps Russia (Medieval 2: Total War)

Moscow and the capital drag, relocate to Kiev until Poland took Smolensk and Ryazan, Riga, Helsinki, Vilnius, and then in the South-East Sartell, Kaffa, and B***, then Tbilisi. Then chase Poland and Krakow

Capture Helsinki, Moscow, Smolensk, Kiev, make capital, sometimes cast in the Europe of the poles.

And the very first moves? I first build the port, then the town hall. Prince and 2 squad of woodcutters go to Smolensk, all remaining troops are to Smolensk in Novgorod order of the merchant and the detachment of archers.Merchant goes to Kiev.

well you bent: recruit kopeychikov and odradzam throw to capture the city (Rus quick to put together), and then merchants, FORTS, ports

Usually to Kiev first get poles. However, now playing for Russia in the mod DHRR and there due to the large map and super cool rebel, I still took first. The sequence was this: have Novgorod+Tver, attack Pskov and Smolensk starting armies, then Riga take, since there rebel a little, then a break, then the cavalry goes to Kiev, then Chernigov, at the same time the second Hiking is Mokwa, then Vladimir. The cavalry moves to Ryazan, MB. even ahead of the woman, we went to Polovtsy. Then she left Pinsk and Vilna, Hiking army take Tallinn and from the siege of Koenigsberg, Danzig, the island of Gotland. At the end of the captured Finland. The rebels, apparently, ended. You can start a major war.

Smolensk, Kiev, further Vilnos, but if you have already captured to Riga. To Moscow immediately to break useless to go far, and not a lot of sense. You need to cut off the poles from the rebel lands, that would be no war as long as possible to develop. You can still take Sarkel, that would be so off the Turks. However as provide to him the Turks reach fast, so you have time to wait. Well, and then have optional or fight with the poles and the remnants of the forces (which incidentally is usually not the case) take the internal rebel of the town, or, if the war yet, throw free units at the rebels.

Kiev is not so important to capture, Stockholm brings more money, its a General with mercenaries captures.and after the Smolensk it is necessary to go sa Sarkel, it is also important to mine than to capture Kiev And if Kiev Poles will take them 2-3 priests lead and then to the spy, with two or three stars is being implemented and Kiev will revolt

I try to East the troops to pull to the arrival of the Mongols. And the Horde always bring trouble. And who knows where the Timurids appear when Russia mgreese ? I have to Russia is not reached yet.

I immediately seized the Black sea with the sea of the cities more money, and Ryazan doing 3-level castle, that of the Mongols to withstand the siege

First capture of Smolensk and Riga, then Kiev, and then Stockholm, and if you have time, toruń. And then, according to the situation. As for the buildings, then, in principle, do what Smers.

Timur usually appear where the Mongols. I mostly play Russia and for some reason I have always, only time of Sarkel came the Mongols, and so they are in Baghdad appear to them from Constantinople the fight, but there I have such an army that auto combat defeat the Mongols. Here many write that they have millions of money,and I have a maximum of 50 tons tyvec, but I have a lot of armies. each border town for 3-4 Fort full of troops.

on this and money is short, the contents of the armies leave. I have the largest number of armies was 12, and that during the invasion of Mongols, Timurids, and so lacking and 6-7 field armies.

and the money what's the point in saving?

but when the plague comes, what are you going to build?

And what is the problem I have almost every move for 2-3 cities plundered, and the ranks and not every course, but the plague usually comes later, when it городов30 at least there is

do you even know when the plague torula is not, and so the loot is not.
I had a case when the plague came, was sick all the towns and castles Treasury was about 250 tons, and in 3-4 years remained 15 pieces.

Here are my first steps for Russia:

cataphract_an to the plague we must have a lime to save 250thousand is not serious.

King of bot
maybe it's you and came to save the lemon to the plague, if you play on easy levels.

I have no plague, the Treasury rarely up to 50 thousand will have turned, the ranks of only the first 10 steps approximately constant, and then if money remains after hiring armies and retraining
