As Napoleon, I can confirm that using enemies' dead corpses to block the way of thier reinforcement so they bug out is a genuine tactic back in the days.
With 1609 turns having passed, he is well over 100 years old here. It is a miracle he can still ride a horse. Can't fault him for requiring a little bit of help with managing his affairs every now and then at his age.

How in the holy fuck has someone played 1,609 turns of a total war campaign. How many hours has gone in to this? How has it not been beaten by this point? I have so many other questions.
I mean.... i got over 10k hs of csgo, and over 6k hs of league plus campaigns of rome 2 that went well over 300ad.... Dont really know how many turns that would be tho
@@drake1896 yup, i role played the shit out of rome 2, tho it was with a greensteam rome 2, sadly those saves wont work anymore now that i got it on steam for real
@@Dexusazwhat? No. Its 26.6 hours (repeating) or just over a day. Hes provably been on this save for a full 2 days, countingbtikenit takes to do stuff in each turn.
55:37 the men are running because they ran through a minefield (not get shot by your cannons), which can be placed at the start of a battle. It's visible as a red cone-shaped area as in 37:43 in front of the cav unit. Just writing this because in one of your lets plays you seemingly didn't know this and i feel it's the same here
Though the trigger seems a little bit buggy because in 57:05 (watch a little bit earlier to see the movement command) he must have run through a minefield again, but this time it didn't go off.. so yeah But the explosion is kinda beautiful
21:50 yes you are absolutely right, it wasn't Louen at that moment but Louen DOES appear in Napoleon, he is in fact Napoleon. He also appears in Med 2 as the French general
The way to unlock the formation in Napoleon would be to put them in a control group and then use the formation button to put them in a line formation. This way, the units can be dragged out over a larger or smaller area, just like in the newer titles, while using control groups.
Say what you will of Napoleon TW, That artillery exchange around 46:00-50:00 gives a real good showcase of how horrendous it must have been to weather an artillery barrage of the era - amplified by the fact that major battles could involve hundreds of pieces on both sides. Tough going marching through that.
As well as the infantry encounter: marching through enemy volleys taking great casualties, only to eventually face each other in a massive bayonet charge. Even despite all these bugs, this shows how realistic Napoleon and Empire were
1600 turns is quite insane. I had a empire campaign in warhammer that went on for like 400 rounds and that was like a eternity for me. I got wiped from the old world and barely held on with a colony in the new world and slowly built back my strength. It was quite fun
Italians! The Italians are the threat!? The year 1872, that is crazy. I was really hoping for some Napoleon/Empire disasters but this one was unexpected.
It was great to see Napoleon: Total War! I put over 2,000 hours into this game and love it to pieces still. Not going to lie though… watching him play hurt my soul a little bit because there are so many little things where I was yelling “square! Use square!” Or “tell the art to shoot their artillery!” Haha great video! P.S. if you have not discovered it yet, the AI is really bad. The only time you face forces greater than 20 is when two nations enter a fight against you. For example France vs Great Britain/Prussia.
Fr though, how does a person play this game for 2000 hours ? I have played this game for near 400 hours and i feel like i am running out of things to do. Admittedly i don't do multiplayer because of how rarely i can get actually get into match at all, rarer even if i don't get bugs trying to do so. Do you do mods or a lot of multiplayer?
19:54 I remember doing this during a particularly tense battle as Prussia but with infantry, finding the spawn point, making a curve formation aand decimating evry unit that passes through, I've cclutched some supposedly impossible engagements with it.
I really like how artillery works in this game, second to Shogun2. Just a few weeks ago I played Napoleon as Prussia and lost one of my best generals due to the bouncing lol.
this game is actually the best I felt roleplaying napoleon. artillery angles are super important, and if you meticulously plan the shooting trajectory of each battery, just like the real napoleon, then you can get awesome results. I like the history of the napoleonic wars, and this is one of my favorite TW games.
I'm curious what happend in this campaign. Just look at the minimap at 1:11:35 Whole Europe is disjointed. A lot of nations are independent, something bad happened to the British, Germany is still divided, but Italy got unified. I guess the player did that on purpose or he tried to do the challenge with declaring war on everyone, but it didn't go well and the Spring of Nations happened in 1848 xD
My favourite total war game. I think it was not only a disaster battle, but a disaster campaign. Would love to see continuation. Unfortunately limitations of that old engine are noticeable. I never encountered those bug where enemy is stuck on the edge of map, only some crushes or sound glitches. As far as battle goes, I thought it would be better to replace cavalry with infantry while stopping reinforcements, but it turned out well when they came from the opposite directions. And killing enymy with artillery before they enter, it was just magnificent.
I always did enjoy Napoleon and Empire, but the AIs inability to see or understand elevation meant you could always trick their artillery to fire ineffectively into hills nullifying it and making the game pretty easy.
Finally, a Napoleon disaster. I can't imagine playing this game that late into the campaign. NTW was fun but the NTW3 mod made this game special for me
man I know It's weird but I love empire total war. This battle is basically peak empire: infinite artillery duels, reinforcement camping shenanigans, a giant blob of infantry, friendly fire removing half a unit on accident and, of course, AI plowing a field with cannonballs for an hour straight. Makes we wanna play that mess again lol
There's that sweet sweet Empire/Napoleon reinforcement jankiness I've been missing! Once killed Napoleon himself and 3 full stacks of French by killboxing a reinforcement points with canister shot artillery and line infantry. The AI is also notoriously brain dead in these two games. Line infantry warfare does not really translate very well into TW unless all you want to do is march in a straight line without manouvering. Still, I have a soft spot for these games. Watching cavalry draw sabers and charge home is amazing. In a weird way these games have my favorite cavalry gameplay. Super easy to get them killed, but it is also possible to get amazing results with them.
fyi you can just clump your units together at the point (at the red line) the enemy reinforcements arrive, which allows your units to wear down the enemy as effectively as when they're routing before they're even usable on the field
It looks like this guy won a campaign, spammed the end turn button to get crap tons of money, and then forced all the regions in the game to rebel, then peaced out with the new nations by giving them territory back, and then declared war on everyone after letting them build up for a while. I think this is what happened because every single territory that can rebel and become it's own faction has. Look at the UK for example, Scotland, and Ireland exist, which can only be formed by the territory rebelling or the player releasing them as a protectorate. Since Poland is so big, the player must've given them the territory. Poland usually only spawns in Warsaw, but it has a bunch of territory that looks like it does on the Empire campaign starting position.
Also, I think the main reason you've gotten barely any Napoleon submissions is simply because the way the AI usually works you just rarely ever run into disaster battle situations (As long as you are somewhat competent in managing your campaign). I mean this disaster battle was created intentionally, it wasn't a natural part of a campaign.
I wish I had half the patience some others do. I just hit a snag in a campaign and when it all went wrong I was like, "nope!" and just restarted like 160 turns in. This is insane!
You probably didn't need to send every cavalry units into each charge. Split 1/2 to rest while 1/2 attack and cycle probably would let them rest better.
Exactly, and also he should've always kept one unit ready to charge every new enemy unit standing near it so that the enemies wouldn't be able to shoot first. He made so many mistakes here, it's quite strange.
11:13 I find it absolutely baffling that Napoleon sent Grouchy to pursue the Prussians instead of having his troops move on to Waterloo with him. I mean, why split up their forces? Instead of fighting a separate battle, Grouchy could have simply spawn camped Blücher whenever he tried to reinforce Wellington. Any military commander worth his salt would know that. Idiots.
This is my favourite Total War based solely on the era. I wish they did a NTW 2 or Empire 2.... I think line infantery tactics works really well in these games.
Napoleon is looking pretty good for being 103 years old in this battle.
103 years old, but still looking like 36
💀
I love your pfp, @anonnymousperson, LEGO!!!!
Its 1872. That must be Napoleon the 3rd, getting his shit kicked in by the Italians instead of the Prussians.
So this campaign went until 1872…that’s past the Franco-Prussian War, the Second Empire, the Second Republic, the July Monarchy, the restored Bourbons, and the American Civil War.
