How to use javelins. If you try to fire over your unit your unit will be massacred by your own unit. However If you get behind Any enemy unit and fire they will decimate that enemy unit in like 20 seconds

I chose the Irish, went on to unify Britain, and captured the Western Islands and the Eastern Islands, helping my barbarian friends swallow every piece of Western Roman land in the process, and then set up trade lines, united a dozen barbarians from Western Europe into a huge AI army, and fought Attila in a war of attrition, where you just had to maintain trade, give money to various barbarian tribes. Somehow, it has a 4th century NATO feel to it

What a war that might have been
as the franks, I learned at the end of my campaign why my first line broke so rapidly in battles: my second line (axes) throw their axes at the first line killing half of my own men as soon as we clash with the enemy front line.

Thats a hard lesson learned!
I am playing the Eastern Roman empire at the moment. I started the campaign by upholding my food supply with wheat farms built in the most fertile regions around my empire. However no matter how many i built i was in a constant state of famine. I wish i knew about the climate change before

I started noticing these things about year and a half ago...and got really good in this game and the mods.
First huns campaign finally Atilla became old enough raised an army with him as general 1 turn later he got assassinated was a fun campaign 😂

I wish I knew that the farm produces less and less food as the campaign progress
First time I played Attila, as the WRE I learned about the re-spawning Huns the hard way. My first plan was to amass all of my men and destroy absolutely all Hun armies at the same time. I played it on regular difficulty, found 5 of their armies and tried destroying them all but one SINGLE army of like 3-4 half-strength units got away, just out of reach. Later, I heard about the need to kill Attila himself. However, if their armies only re-spawn the next turn. Could my tactic have even worked?

They would have just respawned, only when Attila is killen the mechanic is "broken". Loved the plan tho!

@@thisistotalwar I thought I might trigger some sort of glitch or bug, where the game would register the Huns as defeated because they have no armies available.
I wish I knew to manage sanitation and order properly before playing lol. I was steamrolling the campaign but then i got hit a plagues and rebellions at the same time and now I'm in constant civil war lol. I forgot that this game was mostly about survival. This is probably one of my favorite TW games just because of how dark and grim the atmosphere is.

Yep all very useful things to know 👍👍. I thought CA did a good job pre-release of hyping up the climate effects and the settlement damage debuff. I also learned from LoTW how to deal with the Huns. The Wonders buffs didn't get as much news as they could have, just like the Ancient Wonders Videos were removed in Rome Remastered 🤔🤔 but as you say a buff is a buff ! Actually i do use the Wheat farms a lot in my campaigns but in northern areas i do eventually convert them over but keep them in the east, converting to Camel/Horse/Sheep ? farms mid game is not much of a burden usually.

I usually just watched the first trailer then headed straight into the game myself. Completely unaware of all new mechanics 😅 About the farms, maybe not that much of a burden, but if you whey in the economic side of things... sheep/cattle just works more efficent for you campaing :)
There are so many great mods I never play vanilla - never. Rome Era Chapter's is my current fav (after 1,200 hours of MK1212, AE and more)

Nice vid
1:45 “I wanted to conquer the great city of Rome” Hahahaha, that’s your first mistake. Assuming that Attila is world domination like other TW titles. *It’s survival.* Also for climate change, I heard it doesn’t hit the southern region as hard so there’s that saving grace.
I wish I knew playing ERE was actually very easy but now I'm way too far in the game to start over as another faction.

I would say tho that it depends on how you choose to play. Trying to keep your original regions is not that easy.
If you're low on influence, try arranging a marriage with a friendly faction. If you get a wife for your family member from another faction, she'll come with about 100 influence automatically.

Great video. I knew 3, 5 and some of 1. But the others are really useful to learn about, especially the barricade one! One thing I'm not quite sure of though. You said hurlers and archers get the buff, but do javelin units, or even infantry equipped with javelins like cohors? Either way, I'm happy to subscribe for more total war content :)

I tried to choose the Alans, trade with the Alamans for diamonds, then convert to the dark cult, build every piece of the city into as much industrial construction as possible and occupy the entire North and Siberia, and when Attila arrived, he was faced with a cult kingdom of plague and gold, and since Attila was God's whip, The forces of Alan, who have converted to the dark cult, are the land kingdom of Satan
I don't fight the huns...

Vanilla Attila has some of the worst 'mechanics' in history of TW: endless scripted Huns, 'winter is coming' ice age, nuking provinces, weird hordes, completely illogical upgrade system... I actually like the game, but only excellent DLCs and mods.

Broken is a bit harsh, but yes it's poorly optimized and on the 32-engine so a 4090 won't magically fix this due to the limitations.
Man you need to understand to everyone has experienced with this game. Your tips are not use for new people with the franchise.
1. It's very buggy 2. It's very unbalanced 3. It's overpriced for its age 4. It has a lot of DLCs 5. It's unoptimised and runs terribly even on modern hardware 6. It's abandonware
