Cards - Might Sign Juan Gonzalez

St. Louis Cardinals - Reportedly interested in signing OF Juan Gonzalez.

Criticizing moves is kinda like backseat driving, so I made a list of things that were better ideas than signing Juan Gonzalez in an attempt to be positive and proactive.  In order to preserve the site’s bandwidth, I’m picking a random 7 of them.

Not so quick. If those French are the General's Bodyguard Mounted Fuedal Knights and the English consist mainly of Pasants & Peasant Archers, they may be able to pull it off. Though if there are any Spearmen or pikeman amongst the English, it is all over.

Strummer beat me to it but it looks like it is heavy cavalry charging into a line of longbowmen. Judging by how few casualties the knights are suffering they are either really highly armored and trained or the longbowmnen are newbies. The knights should be able to rout most of the bowmen without suffering too much and if that mass in the middle are simple spearmen it might cause them to rout as well, and if not you still have a good chance of positioning the knights in the rear of the spearmen. I've done it and I've had the computer do it to me. Nothing more infuriating then watching 20 heavy cav's go rampaging through your 600 man army.

I don't know what that last one is supposed to be, but based on the flags, there appear to be 3 armies rather than 2. And the red arrow is pointing to the one stuck in the middle.

I do hear Fallujah is beautiful this time of year.

Maybe Dan meant the stupid thing was buying the return ticket back to Baltimore.
   26. Spahn Insane Posted: January 17, 2008 at 10:04 PM (#2670691)
Judging by some parts of Baltimore I've seen, I might actually prefer Fallujah.

Be sure to show me around at the meetup.
   27. McCoy Posted: January 17, 2008 at 10:10 PM (#2670695)
It isn't three armies it is two armies. English vs. French. The archers have the lion while the regular army has the more normal two lion flag.

Shoot, I was hoping you guys wouldn't notice they were longbowmen. In my attempts to get good terrain and a shot of both armies at once, I accidentally got the computer disorganized a bit. The knights would scattered the bowmen, but not the 5 units of heavy billmen.

Depends on the fear level of the knights, the billmens experience level, their generals penalties, and their formation. If the bill set themselves up in some sort of square you are screwed but if you face off against a bad general with bad penalties and he has his billmen chase after the knights all over the map then the knights could beat the billmen. Especially if the Knights are highly experienced and the general has some good bonuses.

Have to ding you on this one. Fallujah doesn't actually have it's own airport. Closest you'd be able to manage is to fly in to Baghdad and then drive the rest of the way. It's not a long drive, if that's any consolation.

I have no problem with taking a flier on any player, but of course with the current managements decision making, our probably best outfielder (ludwick) will be the odd man out if Juan remotely shows an ability to play.(not like that is really possible)
   55. dr. bleachers Posted: January 18, 2008 at 04:32 AM (#2670955)
I think Barton is more likely the expendable outfielder, CFB. It would be a shame if Juan got lucky on a couple of hanging sliders in Florida and the kid went back to Buffalo for 2008.

seems possible, with the way this organization has gone out of its way to prevent Brendan Ryan from even getting a legitimate chance to play, it wouldn't suprise me if they block someone else for an over the hill veteran. (I'm just glad Taguchi signed a guaranteed contract)

Cardinals best lineup is C yadier, 1b Pujols, 2b Kennedy, SS Ryan, 3b Glaus, of Ludwick, duncan and ankiel....

the likely lineup is Yadier, Pujols, Miles, Izturis, Glaus, Ankiel, Duncan, Juan/schumaker.

Since it appears that there are a number of Total War fans here, describe your affinity...

I never cared much for the Age of Empires, Cossacks: European Wars, type games - it always seemed to devolve into nothing but a click and melee pixel fest. There would always be this breathless push in the manuals to properly balance your armies, use formations, etc --- then inevitably, it turned into a "who can build more faster" game.

I've always preferred more the Paradox shop type games (Europa Univeralis, the Hearts of Iron series, etc)...

Has Total War really managed to bridge the gap between the two sub-genres?

   64. Grunthos Posted: January 18, 2008 at 03:21 PM (#2671145)
Total War has only partially bridged the gap. It's by no means a pure clickfest... the strategy elements are pretty solid, although they've made some limiting design decisions along the way. The mod community has produced some really slick upgrades, too. But the tactical AI remains abysmal. The series cries out for a moddable AI, which would get pretty good pretty quick with all the interested parties that would work on it.

   66. Dan Szymborski Posted: January 18, 2008 at 03:42 PM (#2671160)
The Total War games are quite different from the Age of Empires games. They're not RTSs. The battle map and campaign map are separate entities in the game. When you're on the campaign map, movements are turn-based and the emphasis is far more on diplomacy, city improvements, and forming armies than it is about hoarding resources (of which there's practically none other than having enough commercial stuff and taxes to fund your army).

Total War also has a very active mod community that gets support from the developers. There are a number of mods out there that completely change the game (and you don't lose the original game either).

The one downside of Medieval 2 is that it has fairly high system requirements, though that's less of a big deal as the game's over a year old now. But still, unless you have at least a GB of RAM and a video card that dates at least from 2004/2005, you might want to try the original Medieval Total War instead!

   68. McCoy Posted: January 18, 2008 at 06:20 PM (#2671298)
I dislike the new strategy interface that they adopted for Rome Total War and then used for MTW2. I liked the old RISK type interface of moving icons over a map instead of little people walking around the map.

Basically now the game has become a cross between Civilization and Civil War though technically Civil War had the same strategy map zoom into battle type interface.

Out of all of them Hearts of Iron is probaly the most complicated and has an extremely high micro-management required gameplay. Europa was good too but again there is a lot of micro managing in that one as well. Plus you have to be really patient in that game and do things that will get result decades into the future.

Crusader Kings just got an add-on release that fixes a lot of the interface problems, so if you're a Paradox fan, I'd check it out.

OK - thanks, all.

Dan's note about sys reqs probably means I'll have to pass for now... The grand strategy AND battlefield level tactical mix does intrigue me, though.

If anyone from congress or the administration is reading this -- I've decided I'm not really interested in financing a new PC, so I'm socking cash away... current savings + tax refund still leaves me a couple hundy (~$500) short of the setup I'm looking at, so keep that in mind as you debate a stimulus package!

I have to admit I like the new one better. It's more to the actual campaign style you would have seen then, and offers a chance to march through allies to hit enemies, as well as help allies during invasions.

Yes, I know. I use them where possible... but CA has limited the AI modding capacity to initial formations and other peripheral AI helpers. Units still run around like headless chickens once you start the fight. Giving the mod community access to the real nuts-and-bolts settings would help quite a bit.

Play Rome: Total War.


I second this advice. R:TW isn't as much of a system hog, and there are very polished mods for it that can do wonders for the gameplay. My personal fave is Europa Barbarorum (www.europabarbarorum.com), but you can wander around Total War Center (www.twcenter.net) and find dozens of others.

Miles might be a better hitter at this point, but I think Kennedy's defense makes him the better starting option. Of course, a bullet to the head is a better option than either.

MTW 2 was the first time I really got to use the cavalry effectively. I don't know if it was me or if it was the computer program but it seems that MTW2 handles the cavalry charges much better then the previous versions. I love watching the lancers go tearing into a unit and having the bodies go flying.

Thanks, Kevin Mitchell Report. That's my all-time TO favorite.

And I didn't know there were so many wargame geeks here too. Y'all have me thinking of digging out MTW2 and EU3 now.

Actually, ZiPS seems to think more highly of Miles than Kennedy, and I'd tend to agree with that.

This is not to say that Miles is good. Just... Kennedy is bad.


I don't agree personally, Kennedy had a bad year last year which is heavily influencing any prediction, but part of that was injury, slow start and lack of confidence from his manager all conspired. If both Miles and Kennedy played 150 games, there is zero belief in me that Miles will end up having the better season.

I think it's part of baseball's demographics. A big part of being a nutty baseball fan is appreciating baseball's history, so I'm guessing nutty baseball fans have appreciation of history in general more than the average person. Plus, BTF is predominantly male, white, ages 18-49, and probably middle-to-upper-middle class, so you also get a key video game demographic and a key History Channel demographic.

The History Channel ain't what it used to be. Ice Road Truckers ain't history it's pandering to the stupid reality genre.
