Jaime's forces arrived on the battlefield and as his and my infantry and supporting cavalry engaged one another, I spotted his bodyguard and had Robb charge him. I besieged his camp but the Lannisters rallied and hit me from all sides.Īlthough the numbers were against me, they arrived on the battlefield in piecemeal fashion, and I was able to bring my full army against each group in turn, destroying them in detail. Obviously the advance had been so fast the Lannisters had not had time to begin the siege, and I was able to identify Jaime Lannister's position near the Golden Tooth. I split my forces, Roose Bolton taking the bulk of the foot and the archers down the Trident towards the ford, whilst Robb and the Greatjon pressed on into Tully lands, sweeping past our allies in Riverrun. The surviving remnants of the Frey host took shelter outside the castle, but this strategy proved inadequate.Īfter savouring the moment I continued the advance. The struggle inside the gates was bloody as I was charged by the Frey cavalry, but I emerged trimuphant. I possessed overwhelming superiority of numbers and due to engine limitations the Twins are nowhere near as formidable as in the books, but the Freys' defensive position was still strong.īattle was joined and I breached the gates in short order. So, I rapidly advanced down the Neck and combined my three armies (under Robb, the Greatjon and Roose) for an attack on the Twins. Since House Stark has virtually no money and is in the red within 3 turns of starting the game, it's not like I had anything else to do I decided to be bold and replicate the Stark strategy from the books: advance as fast as possible with the starting armies and kick some arse. To show how it works, this is an account of my first campaign, with lots of links to screenshots: Details here on how to get hold of the game.
Whilst not fully complete yet (only the Tullys, Starks and Joffrey's forces are fully skinned), the mod is already in a state of advanced playability. Some of the guys over on have been working on a Seven Kingdoms-based mod for Medieval 2: Total War for the past year and have released the initial version.
