Oh neverminded I see you used rally at 20:28 I think.

The Loquendo voices and editing gives me nostalgia, keep up the work man, this is pure gold.

If you can do a 41 unit campaign, there's a mod in the steam workshop for the ui to be adjusted somewhat to 41. Then you can change the save files using either editsf or save parser to change the game to what you want. I recommend editsf and looking up tutorials to get ya started. Love the video man. It'd be great to see you manage a large army.

you should send this to volound. I would love to see his take on this battle. Other wise that was great and very entertaining to watch.

Well done! This makes me wanna play Shogun 2 again.

Congrants on everything bro the battle and the video kkk

This was a very enjoyable video.

This was amazing

First of all, the victory was very impressive, I learned a lot! Second, this could have been easily avoided.

It may be extremely difficult but I think this is possible without the pause exploit. Utilizing unit grouping might help overcome some of the more tedious micro during the initial ambush. Once the generals are killed and units start breaking, as long as you've preserved most of your unit strength, it's pretty much a cakewalk as even the enemy samurai will break without much fight.

While I do agree on the Editing side (He could do some extra editing work for HIS OWN campaign or quick battle Let's Plays, such as putting a simple cinematic intro for example). You also need to consider that MOST of his videos are community/user-submitted ones. Most players submit their campaigns/battles requests to him in either the AUTOSAVE or HARD SAVE format where the events are either JUST ABOUT TO HAPPEN or HAS HAPPENED (but recovered by reverting to the old save JUST BEFORE the event). Editing HIS OWN campaign/battle videos is one thing, but editing a user-submitted campaigns/battles is another.

Holy fucking shit this might just be the best tw video i have ever seen.

You deserve better mate!! Much for view!

The humor in this video is top level! :D

Really fun video idea. Could you share the map you used to show the armies moving? Makes me want to use it for my campaigns.

Man... that's something...

HONOR

beyond impressive

to be honest, probably the most difficult battle was the first and only spear unit vs those almost 6 thousands

Nice!

Really impressive battle. I remember an "epic" battle in my own Ottoman campaign in ETW, but that was in the easiest difficult XD.

Awesome!

Rewlly good use of your Calvary so many people waste thier cavs on wasted opportunities you used every unit with precision including your cav good hammer and anvil constantly pulling out troops to get better angles quite enjoyed this video though 2 years old definitely not outdated even current pros could learn a thing or two from you

I feel like the more difficult battle would be those three armies ambushing the single ashigaru but go off, I guess.

you shouldnt attack that bunch armies at first place, instead move your army little bit closer, close enough to make them attack you and avoid that bloody ambush, and then move your second army on that city away, lost a city is always better than lost Daimyo and his heir

Thing is, even with ambush, it would be a defensive battle due to balance of power. And turtling up against 6.000 soldier army with 20+ missile units wouldn't work anyway. If his thinking worked (no ambush), he would effectively buy himself a turn this way and not lose anything, even if he lost, which he didnt so it works out to be about the same.

lesser range, awful reload rate and accuracy to compare with any missile units except ikko's variation, isn't it bad enough? I just can't get it why CA didn't make it 200 range? I have played modded campaign for 1.3k hrs and 200 is definitely fair and fun for matchlock units with player or AI

@Stas sats I have saw those videos before, the mindset is more for pvp, and the design is fair for pvp, but no way in the campaign. Tell me, how are you gonna win AI's spamming bow samurais with buff that gives them accuracy and reload rate hiding behind the data? The thing I want to say is that they could simply just add another projectile data for campaign's unit, and it's so easy that I can make it myself in 3 mins. But treating campaign like pvp isn't really sound fun, nor does it look. They basically didn't separate Campaign and MP too much, which is why I can't really accept that pathetic 100 range for a matchlock, if matchlock can't win the bow or at least comparable with the bow, why even Japanese at that time adopt them? Either in game design or historical reference, it's unacceptable for me

@@liaogregor4047 Dude, 16th century was time of pike&shot, not line infantry. You wanna skirmish with archers? Use your own archers in loose formation preferably with forest cover, and\or ram enemy archers with cav. Matchlocks should stand behind your melee infantry(preferably on the hill) and shoot through gaps in the line or over your troops(matchlocks can shoot enemy cav over your troops even on flat ground). Takeda katana cav will lose 1v1 against yari ashigaru without even yari wall - this doesn't mean cav is useless or bad.

Very impressive defensive work against a larger force, but the victory still gets a bit tainted by the fact you paused the game in legendary

"pyrrhic victory" yeah we would be using the greek alphabet if that was really a pyrrhic victory

Why did you only have 1 yari ashigaru lol

imagne not playing legendary mode

Negative for pausing the battle

The fact that you can see what units are ambushing you and think about your strategy before the ambush actually starts is cheating, as well as the Shift-Tab exploit. I wonder if the entire plan was conceived on the fly without actually sitting there staring at all the intel for an hour. Also I think that in real life this ambush would 100% end with total annihilation of the defending force, unless of course the attackers were dogshit at their job and got wrecked with rudimentary tactics employed by the opposing side (in real life complex maneuvering like in Total War is virtually impossible even with contemporary technology; any and every tactical move more complex than ‘cavalry go right flank’ or ‘archers retreat’ would be rehearsed a million times beforehand and executed independently by the units themselves rather than transferred to the units mid-battle).
