Guide to the Guides (Napoleon Total War)

Kurkistan · July 2010

This is the NTW edition of the "Guide to the Guides," imported from the old forums There will most likely be some overlap with the ETW version Shireknight was kind enough to recreate, but I hope to keep things as organized as possible.

Unclassifiable Because the Creators Were Rude Enough to Cover More Than One Topic:

Napoleon: Total War Strategy Guide

Napoleon: Total War - The Peninsular Campaign Generals Guide

Hi Kurkistan

I have ported over the unit guides for Napoleon, Empire, and Medieval 2 to the new forums.

Thank you for prompting me to do so. Your efforts in maintaining the "Guide to Guides" is much appreciated by the community.

Cheers,

Amilcar Barca · July 2010

There are no links except in a few ones

@brandybarrel
Thanks, I'll add the N:TW one, but Shireknight has taken over the E:TW GttG and re-posted your E:TW Le FUSIL already, so I can't help you there. As for your M2:TW guide, I didn't even know you had one!

Quite frankly, I'm not sure if it would be worth the effort to create a new GttG for the M2:TW section of the forums, since I don't know of any guides besides yours, and any old guides in the Yuku forums are nigh unfindable as of now and will soon be lost in the depths of time.

@Amilcar Barca
The ones without links are those that I'm waiting for people to re-post from the old forums. I'm going to re-post them myself if people don't do it in time, but I would prefer if the original creators had the opportunity to maintain their guides.

@LordMars
Your welcome.:D

Added Le FUSIL Unit Guide for Napoleon: Total War under "General Battle Guides."

Hi Kurkistan

Thanks for taking care of things.

I’m in agreement regarding M2TW. I just listed what I ported over from Yuku.

Cheers,

Kurkistan · August 2010

Just a note: I'll be posting the missing guides myself this weekend if they aren't ported over by their original creators by then.

RavenNZ · August 2010

Hi, My guide is still being updated sorry its taking awhile i lost the master copies that were on a failed HDD so i'm having to to redo the whole guide again. but it's in the process as we speak.

Kurkistan · August 2010

Ok, I'll hold off on re-posting the old link. Thanks.

Kurkistan · August 2010

Battle of Trafalgar videos and "Engagement Specific Battle Guides" removed because the the videos no longer exist for them.

Added link to Basic naval tactics for use against the AI and Making Round Shot Artillery VITAL under "General Battle Guides."

Still waiting on RavenNZ and Spraetter's Guides, which have been promised.

As promised my Unit Guide http://www.megaupload.com/?d=6P7HQIY5 , It was a shame that my HDD drive failed that had all my master copies of the guide. Hope everything in correct PM me if you see any stat mistakes. There have been some very small changes in the last patch or two where some stats for units have dropped or gone up by 1 to 10 points and the prices have changed too. I've also redone all the Spainish Units. Enjoy.

Kurkistan · August 2010

Thanks RavenNZ, I know it must have been frustrating for you to have to redo it.

Would you mind making your own thread so that you can update it yourself and get all the feedback/congratulations for your work?

RavenNZ · August 2010

:)will do:)

Kurkistan · August 2010

Thanks.

Added link to Spraetter's Guide to Napoleon: Total War under "Unclassifiable."

EDIT: This is basically a sad plea for help, but could someone with experience in attractive-looking formatting make a pdf of Spraetter's guide? I have made an attempt, but it looks sad even to me.

Raven Destroyer · August 2011

Okay i watched now trough the list of Guides i miss an army formation help what troops best to combine when and where that kind of info i would Love to have i'm now trying to make the best of what i can but i still doubt every move i make

as Russia should i make the larger 80 ship of the line or the 74 ship of the line maybe little less hull strength but further identical to the 80 but cheaper i have no clue how to translate the raw data given to a solid strategy and i'm not good when it comes to guns

Kurkistan · August 2011

^You would probably be better off posting a new thread asking these questions. I just compile the guides, I don't make them, and this isn't really a discussion thread.

Raven Destroyer · August 2011

ok ty Kurkistan

Someone tell Brandybarrel that his FUSIL for NTW needs the pre-order and box units, possibly more as well.

MrBoBo1 · July 2012
