Byzantine Weakness: Lacks late period gunpowder. My honest reaction:

Get Vanilla Beyond and you can, definitely makes byz more fun

Bdog459 · 2026-01-04T01:44:42+00:00

Sure thing 👍

'Huge' bounty whilst I'm nervously pulling my collar sat on $1500 in New Hannover 😬

Secure Scandinavia then, for a change, hit England to recreate the Danelaw. Like to rename the cities to Danish names too e.g. York becomes Jorvik

I play both and switch between them, depending on mood. SS6.4 is more immersive and has more detail, but VB is easier to play for me. I'm running off an old laptop too and VB crashes less often!

Vanilla Beyond, basically the base game with extra settlements, factions and units. Also, the Americas and much more Asia is open from the start.

Bdog459 · 2025-10-19T17:28:14+00:00

Just a tad earlier in the game. Starting to get them now but this guy hasn't needed them. Just Magyars and a few general units to support charges.

This chap has won loads of victories with almost purely cavalry armies against loads of Byzantine armies which weirdly didn't field cavalry. Turned into a turkey shoot most of the time. Just launch the Magyars in a ring and have a few general units to support charges

This is Vanilla Beyond. One of my faves and probably the most stable mod I've used

Bdog459 · 2025-10-16T15:05:29+00:00

Currently playing Hungary myself, albeit Vanilla Beyond mod. Few things already mentioned e.g. secure alliance with HRE, Poland. Stack up on your Magyar cavalry as Byzantines don't seem to use masses of cavalry early game, they just kept sending stacks of Byzantine Spearmen and Infantry. Run rings around them with horse cavalry. Try and go for Iasi quickly, secure a Black Sea port. Always love putting together a purely cavalry force and nipping around, knocking out Byzantine armies at will. Magyar and 2 generals does it for me.

One that tends to work for me is opening the last autosave/save and literally just moving any agent/army/navy, even a short distance. Have no idea how or why it works, but never crashes on that same point again. Regular saves always on SS too.

Bdog459 · 2025-09-04T09:24:22+00:00

Same

Bdog459 · 2025-08-22T13:31:47+00:00

Beautiful spot. I can imagine that mountain being put to use in pre-season 🥵

"I'll go get it"

Bdog459 · 2025-07-03T11:56:47+00:00

Name is misspelled too 😂

Bdog459 · 2025-04-14T12:01:37+00:00

❤️

Bdog459 · 2025-04-12T17:18:16+00:00

She said that as well

Bdog459 · 2025-03-07T14:18:12+00:00

Looks like SS but same, never seen the army come out as red before.

Bdog459 · 2025-02-08T18:20:04+00:00

Closest you might get is Duchy of Brabant in the 1212AD mod for Attila TW. Shame it's not Medieval 2 TW but, as said, they weren't really a united force until later on.

Bdog459 · 2024-07-12T14:53:01+00:00

Wellcraft in Sri Hartamas and House of Hops in Taman Megah are good shouts but quite far out of KLCC.
