Co-op campaign

[GhostRider]

Does anyone want to do a co-op campaign with me in fall of the samurai?

I'm up for it. Though I haven't played the game for some time. I want to get back into it.

It would be cool if you could have multiple players play in an asymetric way. I remember a mod for Rome where one player played normally and the others controlled diplomacy of thier factions and set up an "ideal army" and could set up to 3 targets.

The AI cotnrolling these factions would follow the playe'rs diplomacy, build one army to the "ideal army" and then do the normal AI stuff. If it saw one of the three targets, it would try to engage it with anything that can get there in 3 truns would win an autoresolve. In effect, the other players had their factions mostly AI managed on a campaign level. On hard mode, they even inherited the AI maintence reduction! But once the battle begun, players would assume full control of thier armies.

What's the purpsoe of all this? Well aside the hilarity of playing unplayable factions and inheriting the AI campaign modifiers, the real purpose was to speed the game up. Multiplayer battles are fun. Campaigns are slow. But since the "other" players can pick tiher 20 odd units for tiher armies when it's not thier turn and the campaign AI makes quick decisions, the campaign proceeds nearly as quickly as a single player one.

Ah, no. Co-op campaigns are fun but a huge time commitment and I'm at a busy time of mylife. If someone made that Rome: Total War mod for Shogun 2 Total War, then I would gladly accept

just depends. I can steam roll right through a mp hard/very hard campaign, take like 30 seconds for each turn and make tons of mistakes and still be fine. Though it can get pretty time consuming on legendary trying not to make any mistakes, especially early on.

Always use turn timers, 5 minutes if they are slow, 10 minutes just to be nice. It shouldn't take more than 3-4 minutes to take a turn most of the time anyways.

I already sent u a request CptBiplane, down to play sometime.
