What a comeback! I'm loving the Rome 2 battles recently.

The last time I was this early to an heir video Hannibal had just crossed the rhone

Thanks for the shout-out Heir you are the best. Good cast. Those Iceni Chariots got nerfed big time in the latest patch. They were made heavier and cannot spread anymore which truly messed up the velocity of the Chars at the extremity of the unit. Here is an old video that Heir cast with the OG Iceni chars kzread.info/dash/bejne/d21tsNShk93Xm9Y.html

Ty for all the content Sol. I am curious, is the patch you are talking about the one after they had added the new desert faction? I remember after that DLC (Desert Kingdoms) there was a patch that broke a lot of the mods I was messing with. I remember them messing with mass and speed/ turning radius of all the chariots, with the DLC adding the new desert and armored desert chariots. As I don't really play Iceni chariots much in multiplayer, I didn't realize those changes nerfed them so much, if we are indeed talking about the same patch.

@@howitzer551 yeah the changes came with the desert factions I believe. When they removed spaghetti line so that’s patch 20. It’s my pleasure sir.

Love the historical coverage! Maybe show some sieges?

Cheers for the rome 2 revival, Sol & Heir! Loving it :)

The Iceni Player did a really nice job, really like the more 'extraordinairy' army style.

Sol, again thanks for these excellent battle replays

Anytime sir!

What an absurd battle. No skrimishers? No hoplites? Light chariots being an absolute menace? Love it!

Welcome back, son of rome !

Those chariots were MVP.

I second Heir. Thanks Sol!

Thorax are underrated, as long as you're against a faction that isn't likely to be spamming elite infantry. They do just fine against low to mid tier swords, that can't instantly evaporate them in a charge and then put the defensive swords at a disadvantage.

true, if you manage to stop babarian sword charge (which is not that hard to do), the thorax sword will grind out the barbarian one. I don't understand where people get the idea of thorax sword being bad, they are not the best, but calling them bad is just not true.

@@TheBikeOnTheMoon Actually Some barbarian factions will still grind out against Thorax swords due to them just having better melee attack and equivalent or better morale and armour. Thorax swords aren't bad but they are definitely often outclassed. I would say you should use them as the greeks though because as they will likely perform better then hoplites in a Grind fight.

309 kills for the chariots. I would say they paid for themselves.

Average Factions Matter - their lives, not so much

I just realized that word you're often using at the beginning of these vids is "mediterranean" and not "META terrain"

and "Nemetocenna", not "META scena" (which admittedly doesn't exist as a word but I'm not a native english speaker) Idk why I absolutely wanted you to say "META"
