Hahaha I try same but couldnt win the first try the enemy had too many pikes XD
I mean i love this vid and I love the spartan units are pretty much accurate but the bad thing is the Persians are the Hollywood version instead of the historical one. I meant it’s not your fault it’s just an opinion.

The mod author did a super great job on all the Spartan units and the Hero units. He added the Persian units for fun as a side project.
Hope you guys enjoy and subscribe to join the Spartan Army! I trained and tested my Spartan Army in 5 different tactics and multiple different formations to find the best tactic to use in a large scale battle. I tested Feigned Retreats, Flanking, Partial-Feigned Retreat, Double Envelopment, and mixed unit tactics in order to find the very best way to defeat a large army on an open field.
So refreshing to actually see tactis at this game and not only spagetti lines

The RBM mod really changes the entire flow of battles as well as the weapon viability tier list. Hoplite style units and pikemen are really strong with RBM installed.
i tried this tactics on total war rome 2 it worked suprisingly great ngl
Bro love to see you are still doing some videos, this is an awesome video 😁
Nice tactics man!
Cool video, for any of those interested in history...That's not specifically a Spartan tactic, that's actually very similar to the formation of Marathon...a battle the Spartans refused to participate in due to a holiday they were celebrating....this here is a ancient Greek tactic, made famous by Athens. Some say their victory at Marathon is what led to the Peloponnesian war as Sparta began to fear Athens

That is true, I combined Spartan, Athenian, and even some of Alexander the Great’s tactics for this battle to improve upon Sparta’s tactics.
So basically 1 sturdy center line with 2 shock troop like flanks to block initial cavs. And during infantry fight, open small windows to let the missile units to do their work. I can't imagine all these can be done back in the day without communication tools, great strategy sir!
Once you have the left and right flanks secure, draw the center of your sheild wall back

Hey, i am french and i love your channel ! I could say i would be nice to have more dynamic vids, there is a lot of blank, or could add music/sound at some moment but i think it's hard to have dynamic vids on this game. But nice channel ! But can you tell me if you have mods ? And give me the names pls ?

Do you use any cavalry overhaul mods to make cav more effective? I sometimes grow frustrated with cavalry in this game but I don’t want to make the game unbalanced

The Realistic Battle Mod I used in this video actually also makes Cavalry way stronger. That’s why I lost multiple heavily armored Spartans from the charges alone.

If you are using 300 Sparta I’d recommend going back to the version it uses 1.2.8 instead of the current 1.2.9. On the Spartan series I created I had problems with the Spartans being naked without armor on the current version.
as a persian i agree with this technique...those damn old days:((
i also use RBM mod, but then all the vanilla ranged units become trash.. did i miss something? what do i do with the rbm settings?

For the archers you can mess with or turn off combat overhaul through the RBM mod settings or turn off the damage overhaul and leave AI overhaul on.

Realist Battle Mod combined with the skills of the Spartan Hoplites make them devastating despite being a low tier unit. The realistic hesitation to fight and addition of stamina also helps an army in a static phalanx.

Ай бұрын
Almost any faction works if you follow the steps for this tactic. Empire, Aserai, Battania, Vlandia, and Sturgia could work. Khuzait wouldn’t work since they are focused on cavalry. Battania and Sturgia would be the best for the battanian fians and the Sturgian 2 handed warriors for flanking.

With this tactic you could battle 500 archers and they would still do the same thing. The archers would watch the fight without having anyone to fire at then retreat after you destroy the rest of their army. I will say horse archers would be the biggest problem that would require a new tactic.

The AI will focus on the square formation since it’s closest. If they attack the archers from behind they’ll get stuck in the front-line infantry blob as well and not escape alive.

In history the Spartans would outsource Greek spear throwers that would fight in and around the phalanx and would be trained to retreat into the phalanx to avoid cavalry or any enemy attacks. Sadly you can’t use that tactic in Bannerlord but would work very well for this tactic.
Like if you wat 40.000 spartan vs 300.000 emortals
without the stupid ai of rbm I'm not sure it'd go as well

Without realistic AI and realistic spacing you would just have to use short swords instead of spears for the Spartans.

Both sides have the same amount of each tier. The Persian’s just have infantry with weaker equipment on all but the last tier (the immortals). The Spartan Hoplites are tier 2.
Worst... Enemy units are trash and your units are at high tier, probably L6.

The enemy army consists of 1,000 tier 1 - tier 6 units with an even amount on each tier. The Spartan army had tier 2 - tier 6 units with an even amount on each tier as well. The Persian army did seem terrible but that’s because their strength is archers and cavalry and this tactic’s main focus was to completely counter that threat.
