Bannerlord Tactics: "300" Challenge, Volume XIII: Siege Sacrifice (a MASSIVE Siege Defense)
Heya friends, we're continuing with this series due to the constant requests and we take our war-hardened band of high level companions and family members(40+ strong!), and challenge foes in a narrow valley, somewhat similar perhaps to what the Spartans faced 2500 years ago against the Persians... How far can we push these 'Spartans' in Bannerlord? Soon we'll see!
What prompted this series?
I get asked a lot in my campaign just how strong a small army can be in Bannerlord. So in this episode we take a fantasy trip into another world and time, taking a small breather from my death-match campaign to explore the potential of how strong a hand-picked army of 300 men in Bannerlord can be. This series will show ever-increasingly difficult challenges as I wander the map with my own "Spartans", deploying elite troops into advanced tactics in search of Glory. With some 45 companions and family members, many who are over level 40, we shake our shields and howl our war cries as the enemy closes in.... Enjoy!
Our entire channel is dedicated to helping players improve their field command and if that's your desire, or just want to see huge, dramatic battles, you've come to the right place.
Please comment, like and subscribe if you're interested in more of my ultra-late-game campaign, that may end up ending in utter despair, but that's the challenge of it. Any challenge where success is assured is no challenge at all.
My campaign is an extremely late-game campaign where I am resolved to give no peace to these scum Kingdoms attacking me - seven of the eight have been at war for years, with only Sturgia at a neutral stance. My family of warriors is now large though and with what remaining strength and valor we can must, we stand against the map of Calradia.
Join me on this adventure if you like huge battles, the use of advanced tactical maneuvers and intense Bannerlord gameplay, and subscribe to my channel if you want to follow along. This campaign is very lightly modded:
I use four mods:
Lord Retinue Uptier(Makes the enemy forces stronger, much less peasants and lower ranked troops)
www.nexusmods.com/mountandbla...
Improved AI Troops(Also makes enemy lords and their armies tougher by giving them a higher daily xp rate. This means you'll routinely face armies with HUGE numbers of the highest tier units, sometimes four or five times the normal amount in vanilla Bannerlord): www.nexusmods.com/mountandbla...
Death for all: This mod allows you to set the rate at which nobles die more often. I want both a harder challenging late-game but also a more realistic game. If you're cut down with a massive aserai two-handed axe, you shouldn't just be injured 99.9% of the time. It's a very customizable mod so you can just a little more death or set the death rate so high you get several deaths every battle. The number I often like is '10', some deaths but not a massacre of nobles...
www.nexusmods.com/mountandbla...
I also use the Dismemberment Plus Mod: It's highly customizable and works seamlessly with the new beta(and versions back to 1.28). I thoroughly recommend it if you enjoy carnage!:
steamcommunity.com/sharedfile...
I've also used Realistic Battle Mod in the past and highly recommend it for Ai and battle realism BUT I find the pace too slow for my taste and the AI is actually rather predictable after a half dozen battles. Still I wanted to put a plug in for it here, it's a GREAT mod and highly configurable. www.nexusmods.com/mountandbla...
Much of the music and inspiration for this and other videos in the channel are inspired by Epic History TV - probably THE best channel on youtube(and the internet for that matter) covering the Napoleonic wars. With amazing work Epic History TV takes you through the dramatic and incredibly story of Napoleon covering all of his most famous battles. I HIGHLY recommend it.

Excellent, man❤❤❤❤❤
i have to say tho, it should have a mod, or ingame implemented, the ability for troops to pick up ammo out of dead bodies. It totaly makes sense.
I believe the 300 Spartans fought alongside 7,000 Greeks. Leonidas used them in the early battles, but dismissed most of them later on, leaving 300 Spartans as the main force, and 700 Thespian Greeks as a flanking and sally-out force. The Persian army was described as "millions" by ancient historians, but modern historians believe the actual force estimated between 120,000 and 300,000 troops of a wide variety of types. Xerxes himself was only halfway decent as a general, counting mostly on sheer numbers of poorly trained slave warriors and a small number of elite troops (the so-called "Immortals") to do the heavy lifting. Leonidas, of course, was a Spartan king and a much better general, using highly trained and disciplined troops. He wasn't the genius at war that every claims him to be, though... If he hadn't dismissed the bulk of his troops, he could have held the pass at Thermopylae for much longer and forced Xerxes to abandon his invasion there or face starvation and horrific attrition from disease and casualties. Sorry, armchair quarterback over here. LOL. Pretty amazing defense there, sir. :)

Leonidas dismissed his allies because the Persians had found another passage and bypassed the Greek army so keeping his allies would just mean more men would be encircled and slaughtered, thus he sent them back to warn the Greek cities, but the Thespians willingly chose to remain and fought to death unlike the thebans who were forced by Leonidas and immediately surrendered. As for the Persian army being made up of slaves that's definitely not the case. Infact almost no ancient army would rely on slaves. The backbone of the Persian army were free "citizens" let's say, who would form a shield wall for the archers to ideally shoot over, archers were the key element together with cavalry. The preferred tactic of the Persians was to force the enemy to either scatter to reduce casualties from the archers, but making themselves vulnerable to cavalry, or on the contrary to stay close to face the cavalry but thus being easy target for the archers. This tactic however needed not only coordination but also favorable terrain and Leonidas wisely fought in a narrow space to force the Persians to fight hand to hand where the Greeks excelled. Another counter would be to have a more mobile army, like the Scythians , or to be an army with multiple troop types like the army of Alexander the great.

This is one of the better and more informative Bannerlord channels, for bringing some realism to the combat. Just for info I use the RBM mod all the time along with Better Pikes mod. The Better Pikes mod allows you to create proper Greek style Phalanx with it that are highly effective. If you add the Breakable Polearms mod, that can really liven your combat up.

Commenting early in the video: the fact that archers never use the crenellations properly is so infuriating as a history nerd.

Fk you GaAaahh!” Lol. Good vid mate. Actually makes me want to pick up this game again as found the battles a bit janky with ref to troop placement etc ( I play total war games)

With perks you get more and I carry three 'stacks' of javelins in most battles.

@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions so its not about mods. just perk and equipment build. I've seen some videos before and the player has 40 javelins on horse. I've been wondering ever since.

You're the third person to say this and I guess that's a pattern. I've seen some of his fights and interviews and never found the similarity, but our voices DO sound differently to us in our own heads lol

Of course I'm OK with you sharing the axe recipe. People ask me this a LOT and since I don't have a smith in the party anymore, I always have to say 'shrug, I don't know'. Hopefully people go out there and wreck shop, after all, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. Ironically I use a different axe now in 90% of my new videos, a faster, much shorter axe.

did you downloaded a hardcore mod or something ? not in my wildest dreams i could imagine a fucked up siege like this, is almost like you didn't influenced the world at all.

I run two mods that make enemy lords STRONGER, but also I have a mod no longer in use that boosted the heck out of enemy lords and made them higher level with age and experience. The mods can be viewed in the video description.
You should try playing the 1700 mod on nexus mods it’s really fun and there’s always a lot of sieges

I do have a question though, like I said I got this game a few days ago but Im always getting jumped by armies of like 700 soldiers with only 49 men because I am a mercenary, how can I gain large armies ? For example you had hundreds of men and I know you said it was ovver a period of 80 years but how can i do that?
