I didn't get desktop icons for Kingdoms expansion pack campaign on my pc desktop, after installing this game. Sharing the solution I found. There are 4 campaigns for the expansion pack named Kingdoms. To start these, go in to your game installation folder and choose the expansion campaign you want to play. These are batch files (*.bat) not *.exe. The file names to start the expansion campaigns are: MEDIEVAL II - Americas.bat MEDIEVAL II - British Isles.bat MEDIEVAL II - Crusades.bat MEDIEVAL II - Teutonic.bat These are located in your "Medieval II - Total War" game installation folder. Expansion Campaigns will start as a mod, after you double click the *.bat file it will take a few seconds for the game to start. Please be patient. Its easier to just create shortcuts for these files on your desktop. Have fun playing this awesome classic game. Please GOG/SEGA: Release Warhammer Total War Trilogy + Napoleon Total War and Shogun 2 Total War on GOG.
This game could be fun if it weren't for the AI in the game cheating way too much, making it almost impossible to win at the higher levels in the game. It's all about pure luck, and no strategy. It doesn't help when the AI gets everything perfectly placed from the top line and it hits combo after combo, and you don't get the same opportunity.
