Armenia (Rome: Total War)
In my opinion, Armenia is the most interesting and mysterious faction in the game.
It seems to me that this faction reveals all the charms of the game.
Did anyone play for her?

this is where these descriptions lie: data/text/campaign_descriptions
By the way, this trawl started with version 1.3! And it's on any face pirate! At one time downloaded 5 different images in all the same. So far, Turbo hasn't told me about the description of the campaigns.
So bloodmania sometimes in themes here is all step by step.
Folks, that's the question.
To start playing for Armenia, you have to win it first rome by Rome, right? But if in the text file to make a joke (from non-table to transfer to the playlable) then the game for Armenia will be no different than if you pass the game on the garlic?
It's just that I noticed that when "shamanism" in the text. file in the game about this faction (when it is selected at the top of the list) there is not even any description. I thought maybe it was because I didn't go through the game, but I cheated to open this faction. And for the same reason, I don't see any events (or anything like that).
In general, I hope my question is understood by someone :))

If you win Armenia, it will not appear. Only after the change of the disscrit. And there are no descriptions of ALMOST on all nano-slam factions.
Read other topics, from this forum I learned a lot of interesting things (I myself here recently).
ok thanks Klaydim:)
And the forum is wonderful. I also learned a lot of interesting things :)
Why does everyone here think that the Scythians are the ancestors of Slavs? The Scythians were pushed out by the Sarmatians, and the Sarmatians are an Iranian language group, and the Slavs have another. (Sovr representatives of Sarmat-Alans - Ossetians like). In addition, Scythians and Sarmatians - nomads, and they could not suddenly become sedentary people, change tents and yurts on semi-earths and huts, lose the art of horse archery (never heard of Slavic horse archers), and at the same time do not leave echoes.
Read M. Semenova's book "We are Slavs", there is no question of origin in principle, but I did not find any nomadic elements there at the Slavs.

Not all of them. I also believe that Slavs have no direct relation to the Scythians in general.
Moreover, I affirm that no European nation can consider this or that ancient ethnic group as its main ancestor. All modern European nations and ethnic groups were formed as a result of wild incest.

Yes, I agree, absolutely "clean" peoples are not (unless you take some islanders-cannibals)
Folks, I'm quite new to Rome, so don't throw tomatoes :)
So I play Armenia. As they have already written here, this faction has a horse, namely the Horse Archers. So here we are. When I'm attacked from the north by the Scythians, why is it more profitable to them? They, like armenians, often have the same archers. How do you beat them up? It's just that the equestrian archers of the Armenians vs. the Scythian horse archers and there and there huge losses and victory will depend probably only on the general and the experience of my archers.
In short. Is there a more effective way to fight back the Scythians' raids playing for the Armenians?
1. Walking archers are good against horse archers. them in a squad of 80 against 54.
2. Entering the firefight concentrate fire 3-4 detachments one by one. The enemy squad losing three-and-four detachments is running.
3. Your units distribute on the territory do not put them next to, set the structure in the open. Then the fire toll will be less.
In general, the Scythians do not interfere with the Armenians. The same Parthia and Egypt are much more dangerous and closer

Is it a snr? The horse of Armenia is not simple horse archers, but archers-catafracts. They bear much less losses from simple horse archers.
People, do not die - a forum without people is not a forum, but ... not a forum.
I'm reading the subject, I'm going to get a lot of out of my ears when I read, We're all Scythians here. Just Scythians and that's it." I want to blow up the world!
I had three armies in the ground playing for Armenia: each was scored 10/10 on catafractors and archers. In any battle, the losses of 100-120 people, while the enemy is completely destroyed (the number of detachments is maximum).
Such losses happen with personal participation in the battle, and on auto-defeat result: losses of 1/3 of each squad, and sometimes a crushing defeat.
True such armies successfully fight with the Eastern armies or with the Greek factions. Such an army does not roll against the Scipia, but about such: 10/10 catafrachts, heavy spear-carriers. Diggers hold legionnaires (very short) and the katy terribly demolish the flanks of the legion.
Unfortunately, even the maintenance of one such army will cost as much as 4 in the will. It's very difficult!
Well, iain, brother! But there were pihotins with grills and riders with chabureks.
I'm not complaining, yes!
.Enemy.
That's what he's joking about. Don't mind me.
And you really believe that the Germans had a phalanx, the Brits - chariots, and the Romans squads - ninja (arkani). It's a game.
By the way I was always surprised that even in winter the barbarians' troops are always naked! It was really difficult for the developers to dress each faction for the winter in fur coats and wolf skins
