Matrix Games Forums

Hi guys.

Since buying the game a couple weeks ago I've gotten VERY into it. So much so that on another forum, I've been having readers and observers "advise" my play and give me orders - a sort of forum game - and I am recording and uploading the results on YouTube.

Inter Duas Undis plays Hannibal: Rome & Carthage. They're all on my profile, here:

And video one is here:

And the original forum thread is here.

VERY COOL![&o][&o][&o][&o]

I hope you don't mind Alikchi, but I've been recommending your video series to a lot of people today. You can almost watch it and learn how to play the game without touching the manual (plus you get the thought process as the game plays out, with mistakes, warts and all). It's good stuff fella. Kudos.

Not at all, I really appreciate you spotlighting it!

Looks like this war is nearly over (he said, massively jinxing Alikchi's game...[:D])

Yep, we're all done. Thanks for watching. [8D]

What's with the lagging on the videos? Is it the recording software that's making it stutter like that?

That, or my computer, most likely. The way it sputters and suddenly starts working again makes me suspect the latter.

I notice you seem to be recruiting 4 African units per turn, more or less. How did you manage that? I have never been able to recruit more than 3 on Normal difficulty. Or was this played on Easy?

No Answer? I would love to get 4 African units per turn. Someone explain how this was done!

Hannibal: I would love to get 4 African units per turn.
Senate: You would, wouldn't you?
Hannibal: Someone explain how it's done!
Senate: ...
Hannibal: No answer?
Senate: ....
Hannibal: I'd like an Easy button?
Senate: ...
Hannibal (giving up): Carthago delenda est...
Senate: Send army to Gaul.

Well OK then[:)]

mikerolf1, I finally decided to try the game on Easy and yes, you can recruit up to 4 units sometimes in Africa, 4 African infantry to be specific.
