- In this TITANIC CLASH in my very-late game campaign, we try gather our Kingdom's lords together for an assault on a huge, coalition enemy force, in a gigantic, realistic, rolling, chaotic battle over an hour long. Grab something carbonated, get comfortable and 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 to seven mods:
Immersive Battlefields:
www.nexusmods....
Realistic Battle Mod:
www.nexusmods....
Lord Retinue Uptier(Makes the enemy forces stronger, much less peasants and lower ranked troops)
www.nexusmods....
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....
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....
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...
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.

I enjoyed the longer battle and the Napolean discussion. I think he fell victim to human nature as you alluded to. Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Yes, even to guys like Napoleon who had altruistic plans, absolute power just turns us into tyrants...
Wtf aree you on about lmao. He was jumped by all of europe. He was a great man who got in the way of ((certain people))'s plans
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductionsHe wasnt a tyrant buddy
@@kalajari1749 Napoleon? Maybe not a tyrant but was certainly heading in a bad direction. At the end, his desire to fight for France(and his own Legacy) was becoming suicidal and his own Marshalls had to tell him as such.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductionsor maybe he was always like that. Does absolute power corrupt, or does it just make us more of who we already are?
I loved seeing this long battle in the mix of your videos! Huge numbers!!
More to come friend, you know that(and SOMEHOW even bigger battles)...
Hands down my favorite bannerlord video ever!! Absolutely huge battle with deadly use of tactics and a feild of bodies to boot, ive never subbed so damn fast to channel, cant wait for more freind !!!
Glad you loved it bud, it was a blast to fight, and more like it are coming(if perhaps not all so BIG!). Thanks for the kind words and hope you enjoy the videos coming up...
Altough this battle was massive, there were “only“ 10.000 fighters on the field, now imagine the mayhem, that would be an accurate depiction of ancient/medieval battle, for example Cannae at 150.000 troops, gaugamela with over 300.000 troops or even changping with possibly up to 950.000 (!) warriors. That would be the longest youtube video ever.
No shit, that would be so incredible to see... And a Bannerlord battle like that would probably exhaust us LONG before it concluded...
Except there were only 500 people actually on the battlefield at any given time. I really wish it was 10,000 all at once.
I love the history lesson tbh. And as for the long battle that's always welcome
Thank you for your feedback we've been having a lot of these huge battles and so it's good to know that folks are enjoying them as well as the historical sidetracks.
I myself play in realistic mode, and I’ve long been accustomed to the fact that without good tactics it’s expensive to assemble troops) so, I’m pleased to watch your battles, since there are a fair number of moments where I would do the same
Sounds like we could fight as captains, side by side in divisions. Cheers!
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductionsBy the way) I noticed in some battles you send them to attack after the wall of shields, but it’s better to send them to attack from a free formation, that is, if they stand in shields, f2 f1, then f1 f3 (I’m on a business trip and haven’t played for a long time, but the point is to first change the formation to free),
If i right remember,
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductionsotherwise) I understand you perfectly) I very often tried to catch large armies in battle) and often beat large armies with an insignificant number of troops into castles in order to have at least some advantage) by attacking their siege weapons with cavalry in advance and provoking battle so that the advantage in artillery is on my side and the enemy has only a path through the walls
@@efemius1593 Castle siege is my favorite, but I also usually let them just come assault the castle. There are easier ways to win, but I prefer the challenge and HOLDING THE LINE. :)
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions I also love challenges) experimenting with tactics) although often my game comes down to watching units and moving them while I’m at it)
Napoleon has to be the most fascinating person in history. What he was able to accomplish was amazing and his fall was even more interesting. It's sad that he is still looked like a villain. His and Josephine's relationship is extremely fascinating.
I think there are still plenty of people who view Napoleon as a hero, as someone who spread or tried to spread better levels of democracy throughout europe. Ultimately though he fell in love with his own ego
Great video! You're so good at commentating you're battle as they happen! That is not a simple or easy thing to do but you make it seem effortless. I will keep practicing.
I dont mind the long battle at all. Keep making content and I'll keep watching. You've easily become my favorite Bannerlord content creator.
Lots of practice at this point(150+ guides and videos), but I appreciate the compliment! I love discussing tactics and battlefield action, so it's probably as enjoyable for me to do it as it is for you and others to listen/watch. I hope to see some of your videos narrated and shared down the road, especially when you find new and badass ways to crush the enemy(or have more amazing battles).
Narration is tough. It's hard to find time without intrusive background noise, much less do a satisfactory job of it. I will keep working on it though. I appreciate your interest in and support of my youtubing efforts.
I just made 56th level!
@@angrygoldfish9607 You've got the fever man, I know all about it!
I have always played this game never really caring about tactics and just charging my troops in and seeing what happens. I came across your 300 videos a couple days ago and I’ve been watching ever since, love the way you describe your strategy as you play. You definitely gained a new sub 👍
Thanks brother, I'm a huuuuge proponent of tactics and it's highly enjoyable for me to share what I've learned. Glad to have you onboard.
I couldn’t imagine this size battle with battle size unlocked. But I really enjoyed the longer RBM battle w/ a history lesson & the cav decimating everything in sight.
Stoked all of it was well received, thank you!
If you use ture army cost and better pikes mods besides with RBM, it will make you use more archers, and it will make you use your heavy cavalry more cautiously. When you have to pay a whole weeks of income of a city just to upgrade your vlandian gallant to banner knight, you will think twice if charging enemy shield wall is a good idea.
I use serve as a soldier too, with these mods, and one time, I took control of the party leaders cavalry against sturgians. I charges a 80+ battalion into the enemy lines. My character made it trough but when I turned my horse I saw that dozens of horses without riders follow me. These were high tier heavy cavalry charging enemy pikes.
I'm very much interested in adding these mods, as it sounds like a VERY high level of realism compared to real life. It SHOULD cost a lot to upgrade elite knights as long as they crush it on the battlefield, it makes for a great sim and awesome strategy INSIDE this great game...
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions As a compulsive organizer, these mods forced me to accept that I have to go to war even with a very diverse army (consisting units from multiple factions, and consisting units from all tiers, especially higher numbers from the low tiers). This way my playstyle changed from "expected perfection", to look for any opportunity to raise my army, I stopped update all of my troops constantly, I started using low tier units more often, I started converting prisoners as much I can, and I started sparing my high tier units from face to face frontal charge, since loosing even one is a huge financial loss. Losing one banner knight can cost more than 100k gold. Oh, and since I want to spare as much of my soldiers as I can, I started using more sophisticated battle tactics, instead of just F1-F3. Loosing a battle this way is now a huge economical disaster so I won't go on Rambo missions deep into enemy territory blindly anymore, I much more prefer joining larger armies, or following larger armies and support them.
It's a new style of playing that I wasn't aware of before.
When i was using RBM i found that using a long range mace is by far the strongest to use. Pretty much kills everything 1 hit especially if you’re mounted. Speed kills in RBM thats true. But even if u have the same speed or is chasing another cavalry unit, just flick your mouse wide and fast.
I actually have a handful of custom Macy's but I haven't thought to use them for rbm.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions btw so u said rbm is not compatible with with rts camera mod? So thats why i couldnt use it back then. I uninstalled rbm and a bunch of mods just to make rts work. Thanks for the info man.
@@markuku2991 Lately I've been able to use both but at times they seem incompatible. As of today, May 4th, they both work for me. :)
The archers may not work correctly with the unit overhaul off (I can tell its off because the recruits have no shields and spears for example) because their arrows and bows might be incorrect with vanilla units. Also the damage reduction to 25% may not work correctly in RBM, always played with full damage + RTS camera so I just reincarnate to other soldier and continue leading after falling that way. Archers based on my tests actually do more damage than melee infantry when used correctly, however it is true they do less kills, equivalent of having tons of assists in shooter game.
Interesting... I hadn't thought much about how archers might not be strong enough without the troop alterations. Gives me a reason to dip deeper into it. Are you one of the makers of the mod?? If so, honored and pleased to meet you bud.
About dying horses - horse armor, even on the best cavalry is just a little worse than the best armor you can wear yourself. But it turns those 1-3 damage for the character into something like 5-10 per hit for the horse. Which quickly adds up. Decent archers also will just pepper them with arrows and you can't cover your horse with a shield. So yeah, if you run head first into enemy troops your horse will almost always die before you. Because short of making a large mistake - like running face first into a couched lance or stay around to get shot at with heavy crossbows - the horse will always drop first.
The biggest danger for the lord is when you raise your arms to strike - RMB counts under shoulder hits as a weak spot and you get way less armor there.
Fascinating - thanks for the details - and I actually rather like my 6-7 horses dying, this happened to famous generals often in the Napoleonic wars and it adds to the intensity. I love horses, but it's a game, so let 'em die lol.
And I DO love the intricacies of RBM, super-high detail to the mod, hence why I use it sometimes...
Good display of the mod. As a fan of History myself I appreciated your perspective on Napoleon.
Thank you, bud, I'm but an amateur historian, but a full-on Napoleon fan. Just wish he hadn't been corrupted towards the end...
Great battle and tactics, commentary was fantastic
Speaking of the movie Napoleon, I saw a video of the battle of Austerlitz. My favorite comment from that video is "Now that I've seen this, I start to wonder if all that stuff in "Alien" really happened the way Ridley Scott showed it."
lmao, unfortunately I *was* a huge Ridley Scott fan, now he's kinda gone off the rails. Kingdom of Heaven was kinda-sorta accurate. Napoleon was dastardly.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions Kingdom of Heaven was ok, but then I saw the directors cut and it was far better. Wish Kevin McKidd had a bigger role, loved him in Rome. I hope The Peoples Profile's channel does a video of Balian of Ibelin, they also have several Napoleon videos as well.
Amazing long battle, I actually like the realism of the battle duration in RBM. Nothing better on TH-cam than watching an hour long Tactical Enlightenment video 🫡👌
Thanks friend, you're always welcome and I appreciate all the kind words and patronage. It WAS fun to fight but I wanted to be sure to add some commentary so the viewer remained engaged. Not sure how much RBM I'll do in the rest of my campaign, but here and there it's a nice change.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions I am actually very interested in history myself 😁 commentary about great war leaders never gets old brother. (Napoleon is one of the greatest, except maybe for Ghengis Khan)
@@wesselbooi Me too, love all the great war leaders and I study them intensely. There isn't as much information about Ghengis Khan as I would like, but there IS about Frederick the Great, Napoleon, Alexander and Hannibal.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions Same here brother! I find the Ghengis Khan story from Infografics Show quite detailed (as much as is known) I am also very drawn to the first and second world war history.. could be because I’m from The Netherlands, but it’s just such a dark era of history, that it is so interesting to study.
just binged the whole thing in one go. appreciate the longer form content. great narration and also enjoyed the history lesson. watching the battle rage on into the late arvo with the sun setting is beautiful. I must get the time pass mod once i finally dive into this game. Overall, would you say RBM is preferrable to vanilla?
Glad you liked it! Time Pass mod is certainly a nice way to make it feel more like an epic campaign. I would say ONLY use RBM is you don't mind being humbled a lot AND you like slooow battles. Compared to regular Bannerlord the battles are incredibly slow...
@ oh it’s for me then. im a stickler for ‘realism’, tactics and authenticity in games and play every game on the hardest difficulties, cause most games these days are designed for milk drinkers due to corporate greed and the need to appeal to wider audiences. i can feel a tangent coming, so i’ll leave it there 😆
cheers mate, have a good one!
16:46 was a sweet shot
It happens a lot to big names in history, they ended up believing that the country cannot survive without them, so they tie their fate to the contry and viceversa.
Definition of a Megalomaniac, no? Homo sapiens is an astonishingly powerful and wildly flawed organism.
Enjoying going through these ❤
Thanks! I think there are some 250 Bannerlord vids on the channel. And my wedding video LOL, cheers
I made to the end. I was surprised by the shield wall holding so well.
You're a hearty and loyal viewer if you're making it to the very end!Infantry and shield walls perform very well and RBM it seems. Especially if it's three or four men deep it really slows down cavalry charges and prevents widespread damage.
I wonder, do you prefer RBM over base game combat? I usually can't make my mind up as I bounce between them both a lot.
I'm the same, I like certain aspects of RBM, I think it FEELS much more like a real battle BUT I also routinely face 3,000 enemies in gigantic battles and with RBM these can take over an hour, so I often run with vanilla bannerlord...
this was a perfect video
watch it all, had me the whole time!
We must be kindred spirits then bud, history, carnage, tactics, chaos! I love it, and glad you do too...
16:46 epic ragdoll death, nice throw!
Thanks, I love that shit too
Very cool video and thoughts on Napoleon. Its a sign of the times in the latest movie they turned him into a Simp loser.
In his early years with Josephine he DID Simp to her but that was because he was told through her connections he could rise to power. He LET her manipulate him while he used her(and loved her) in his ride to power. Only the lack of an heir prevented her from riding the entire Napoleonic storm with him.
How long have you been plating bannerlord and if it is a long time, how do you find the motivation to keep playing?
In an older video he said that this campaign he is currently in has been a year and a half IRL...
7,000 hours at this stage, and mostly my interest continues because it's fun to try extremely difficult battle challenges. My campaign where I'm at war with everybody obviously things are much different than a normal campaign. I greatly enjoy the challenge.
That was awesome brodie. Are you interested in making a new playthrough?
Eventually, I am deep in a very fun, extremely difficult late-game campaign though so if I do it will probably be later this Summer or Fall. Are you interested in videos from that? Admittedly that is NOT a strength of mine. Ironically I am more experienced at a late-game campaign that early stage...
In my experience in RBM archers work well as a battle buddy to a shield wall, they can still be devastating when the enemy isn't moving, and work well for preventing flanking. Also the poise system, while admittedly janky, does help to nerf calvery although they are still very strong.
I've only tried the poise system for half dozen bottles and it really staggered how I play. Maybe I'll revisit at some point but that's one of the nice parts of the mods is that you can disable parts you're not as keen on.
@HeadlessHorsemanProductions I like the system personally, but I also tend to command a lot more than fight, and I generally like a slower paced battle, so I understand why so many can't stand it.
RBM archers sadly only really deal damage to unarmored foes, anyone in any sort of level 3-6 armor will take at most 1-3 damage instead of the hypothetical 40-60.
@@berenhamilton3321 Not sure how realistic that is, considering at Agincourt, the archers of the English mangled a lot of elite French Knights(and at least killed their horses en mass).
@@potatolord2196 I think I am just spoiled, and used to the ferocious, chaotic pace of vanilla bannerlord. I have tried using 1/2 damage with vanilla and I DO like that a lot, much slower battles, more flanking, time to think and yet STILL reliably playable battles...
I wish the game allowed for all the men on screen at once like a real battle
You can do 2,000 with a mod but any more than that basically breaks the game.
Great Battle more please!
The campaign continues(with every victory!), so I'm sure more are on the way friend :)
По закону жанра, игра должна была крашнуть под конец битвы. Обычно так бывает. 😂
В Соединенных Штатах мы называем это законом Мерфи: все, что может пойти не так, обычно идет не так
I run RBM for the AI module and Warbandlord to tweak unit and damage values. Not a fan of RBM’s “realistic” numbers or having to patch a dozen other mods just for them to be compatible.
Right with you here, though I haven't checked out warbandlord, is that a good mod I should consider? Thanks!
I wouldnt mind some map gameplay, maybe some fast forwarded bit where we see the army movements and everything else. Some kind of a grand strategy plan explanation too maybe? Tnx xx
THAT's a pretty good suggestion - right now in my campaign, I'm showing nearly all of the battles but I can show more of the inbetween. That said, it's pretty late in my campaign and fighting everyone it's not nearly as dynamic as it was mid-game. Here's a video from earlier in our campaign, with a considerable amount of strategic thought in the episode. Hopefully it satiates your desires, or at least covers some things you wanted to see...

@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions well if its worth anything i think that it wont hurt you to atleast record the gameplay in between (if u have enough disk space) as it could be easily made into grade A content if you get an idea and put a few scenes together and give them some consept, for example a revenge story or something similar. Roleplaying it a little bit couldnt hurt and it makes it so much more entertaining. Love the battles though! You could defenitely put some speeches in and maybe roleplay a couple of cutscenes using reload mechanic. Thx and sorry for the roman
@@zaceferzac9239 Food for thought, thank you - I'm still formulating how I would record/edit something huge like a full campaign, but I like some of the ideas here and I'll add them to a list of maybes for future episodes. Thank you friend!
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions well if you want ideas i would suggest looking at some of the other YT genres and implement them in another campaign. For example the '''100 days'' genre is pretty interesting and the best thing is that if you wish to continue it you just add days to it...100days, 200,300 etc.
Also Halcylion does a good job adding concept to his videos by editing them in a specific way. would recomend watching them
@@zaceferzac9239 I will(and do!). Thanks for the suggestion, brother.
The most impressive part of this is you got RBM to actually work without crashing the whole game on launch!!
Works well on 1.28.31.530!
It's not that hard, it's just not really worth it alongside the fact that RBM creators and the ppl who force you to play with it to play their mods don't give good load orders on nexus like 9/10 times or have garbage instructions for installation like that KC person
Also RBM makes changes beyond what it announces/is meant to do just like other mods that are good in theory but crap in practice unless you're buying into the "lol get good" crap with RBM even though it's by far easier to just meme the AI in fights because while armor covering what it covers visually is good it also just turns it into a slog.
Talking about the French, my Mothers site was all Huguenots who where at that time a Relict of the Templar Order who served in the Holy land ca. 1187 but sometimes around 1661 most of them had to flee to the today Austria,Switzerland and Germany. Infect all the assets from The Templar Order was given to the Johanniter who at that time still fought the Ottoman Empire.
I love history but you must have an even more special love for it give to your heritage. I'm an American mutt so some kind of history in my family out there but a lot is hazy and hard to tell...
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions Indeed i also got Family over Seas they settled there from Germany but way before Hitler tried the same Bullshit as Napoleon going east.^^
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions Btw im not a big Napoleon fan but more a fan Prussia especially Bismarck and as a History fan as well of course not because im from there but because they are so interesting.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions Sorry to write again but even your Familiy comes from Europe at some point, i guess?!
@@Taemoco No question, and before that Africa. We're all from the same place if you trace it back far enough :)
Im currently in the middle stages of my campaign but in the last 6 hours of game play I haven't received a single xp point in riding or athletics even though I've fought tons of battles. Does anyone know if that's a bug or if I can fix it? By the way they're both at 274 so that might be why.
I can't say for sure because I don't know your attribute and focus points but there are Max point levels for each one. If you're learning level says 0.00 and then your maxed out and you won't gain any more until you increase the focus and or the attribute points.
Love this game but there hasn't been an update in like 11 months it just makes me sad
Same! Hopefully they're working on a big update which would explain the time delay I know there is some big future plans but for now I guess we'll have to rely on the modders
nice just one problem when mod coming to console players?
This friend, is an answer I have no clue about. I HOPE soon!
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions
well that sucks however at least i can destroy my enemies much more easily now thanks to you
@@Sir_Hammock Love hearin that mate, maybe someday you'll be playing it on a sweet PC and enjoying it all the more because you've had to endure these battles WITHOUT mods.
"There is nothing we can do"
Haha, you're right, ALWAYS something to do I guess...
51:30 "attention!" in the background 😆
Haha! Yeah I play at work and was able to edit this so that it was almost invisible that I played this battle in two parts...
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions lmao. i'm curious now where this edit is...
where the word after attention gets cut off?
@@MrAdohl Splice/splice bud, it's almost invisible(and a magician never shows his tricks)

My hats off to you - and testament to it's entertainment value I guess. Thanks for your patronage!
Wowowowow
Give us the Napolean Vlandia playthrough.
Is this a thing? Like a mod? lol
god i need a pc this game looks so fun with mods😂
It IS amazing, and sooo many variants and ways to play. The modders are amazing folks!
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions Yeah I’ll definitely be saving up for a pc once i get started at this new job. I just wish the developers would actually update their game instead of leaving it up to the modders lol
By the way) im from Russian Siberia) and me too like history)
Napoleon and I salute you :)
you say that RBM is one of the most popular combat mod. That might be true. But only because the most liked combat system of them all is Bannerlords own system.
RBM players are only a small part of the community.
The mod brings a lot of nonsense with it.
And it has no documentation at all.
nevertheless...nice vid
You tell some wrong facts about the french revolution. Marie Antournette never said the cake thing. But it was propaganda of the revolutionaries.
But it's one of the best quotes from that time 😂
I think I mentioned she probably never said that(at least in public), but if I didn't, I concure sir, you are right. She actually wasn't as ghastly as history makes her out to be, but ultimately she did support the king crushing the revolution, and history is written by the victors(and not the beheaded).
You're right too, I actually still PREFER vanilla bannerlord to RBM, but it's popular so I've made a half dozen vids explaining how I would fight under it's rules...(and thanks for the kind words!)
What nonsense exactly does it bring with it? Its all made using formulas and real life testing…. Armor is actually armor, not butter. Battles last longer, you have shoulder strapped shields, smarter ai, so what nonsense are you referring to?
@@daldan66 Forgive my clumsy and poor choice of words. It's... REALISTIC, and as a fan of history I appreciate that part, but it's so dramatically different from vanilla bannerlord that for some players it's jarring to use all of these new-fangled concepts that vanilla bannerlord DOESN'T have. I'm a fan of the mod, I just choose to use certain portions(and not use others).
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions i didn’t mean you brother, i was referring to the OP of this post that said it adds a lot of “nonsense”, which I just wanted him to clarify what he meant by nonsense as I think all of it is realistic although I can see why an archer player wouldn’t want shoulder shields it messes up fps view when using bow
This kinds of clickbait I can’t resist.🙂↔️
Hope you enjoyed it!
When it comes to the French revolution you didn't mention the reason the French economy was is such a poor state was because they French had spent billions defeating the British to liberate the American colonies during the Revolutionary war, the French revolution was a very poor attempt to copy the American revolution that turn into something akin to Proto-Communism that murdered millions.
Also Britain and the Netherlands were democratic nations at the time, the Americans has a more improved Democratic system the British had at the time.
All great points, and no question as an American I am forever grateful to the french for bankrupting themselves in a revenge war against England, helping us form our own country, even spending millions to arm our early citizens and break English blockades to get us supplies. I'm not saying the end result of the French revolution was great, but it was fairly necessary in a system where the wealthy paid few taxes, the country was going broke and the poor had so little.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions Yeah France was a absolute Monarchy and had little to no middle class there was very little opportunities for the common class, it a shame such class based rulership was introduced to the English by Franco-Normans conquest and striped the rights of man, prior to 1066 the Anglo-Saxons use to vote for their kings in the Witan, you can see through out English and British history a struggle between the English people and their rulers to gain more rights, powers and freedoms for the common man, I believe it is that Anglo-Saxon spirit in the Americans that lead them to form the worlds greatest democracy.
I will say I feel that the modern American system these days is pretty corrupt unfortunately.
What are your thoughts?
@@SaxonSpooner VERY corrupt, though to be fair, throughout history, politics and business have almost always been corrupt... Heck, votes were for sale in the U.S. as late as the 1880's...
Basically today, politicians are owned and paid for by corporations who then expect those politicians to do their bidding... It's a sad but true fact, and not really all that hidden(citizens united, etc).
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions You could legally buy votes? wow I never knew that.
but yeah money greases the wheels of business, and politics is business, war is a Racket as Smedley D. Butler famously said.
it is crazy to think that powerful government institutions such F.B.I. and Scotland Yard started as little more then insurance companies.
Thank you for replying to my comments by the way, it is very kind of you.
@@SaxonSpooner I enjoy a good historical discussion as much as any tactical/war discussion...
👏😊
and then they r only 1000 men on the field xD its so shit, why they cant increaze the battle size? we hv the year 2024
Still it's an astonishing amount of things for the CPU to figure out. 2000 units all with weapon loads, AI commands, pathfinding, and all interactive with each other. It's kind of amazing we can get as high as 2000. In our lifetimes, sure 10000 will be possible, probably more.
First 😁
Can I be second? haha, honored guys are excited to watch an old guy playing a video game. Enjoy!
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions well y'know sometimes old men gotta take care of the next generation, I like the commentary makes me feel immersed + for everyday you learn more tactics to conquer calradia, I came by this channel and now I can make good use of my archers and also adopted the elite companion units idea as I usually just place my companions alongside my big pile of units but it just makes much more sense to have them independent as elite shock troops in a way
@@Claude_III You nailed it. I'm happy to transmute my knowledge to the younger generation - hope you guys go out and dominate too haha!
For archers in RBM assign one cav units to your self,then you will be able to manipulate that unit way better when killing enemy archers which is sometime pivotal..As for your own archers Use one cav archer unit where u place them behind your archers in that way this unit will save your archers from calvary charges,that cav archer unit u can use like fast mobile archers and when they are done with amoo u use them as calvary..also if your line wawering use your archers to charge like infrantry they will buy you some time while your new units come..i allways use archer charge when they are out of amoo,this way i get new one with amo faster ,so when archers are out of amoo i use them like meat shild charge..as For napoleon ofc i watched everything on you tube,i can recomend you history marche channel..Napoleon is great But Julius Cesar is way better..u can watch his Gaul Campaign at Heroes and generals channell...Cesar was my faw historical personality..he did it all Diplomacy ,politics philosophy,war,Propaganda he even wrote Julian Calendar..Also there is scene in Gladiator when ex Roman now Gladiator solder figth together with Maximus in firs t battle when Maximus ask him do he have expiriance,he answers that he was with Cesar at Alesia..Battle at Alesia is most stunning battle i ever heard and one of most difficult For Cesar..he him self Jump in Figh together with solders..check it out..
Agreed completely.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions I i editedmy comment read again..Fan of Napoleon and Cesar..aswell..
Everytime someone brings up RBM being the most popular mod I always feel the need to point out because there's no alternatives for field combat AI, and a lot of mod makers are "Get good" J.O's and force you to play with it on, even the modules that are meant to be toggled on/off to people's personal tastes, and isn't realistic at all given I've seen naked people with naked heads tank swords to the effing head with all the dumbass compat patches out the wazoo and otherwise paired with crashes and incompatibilities that shouldn't be an issue in theory but, hey, RBM, who cares as long as someone who wants to feel 'l33t' gets to bully someone for not liking RBM or telling their community to go eff themselves by introducing it into their mod midway thru and forcing it rather than it being optional because EFF ppl's personal choices, only the mod maker matters.
Only the field battle AI is good really anymore esp since they updated siege AI in the game, lol.
It's also only popular because people these days lack any and all standards and are wracked with toxic positivity.
Toxic positivity I'll have to look that one up! I do wish there were more mods that affected the AI but I imagine this is very difficult to change...
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions Basically the logic of, in this instance, "I put this out for public consumption but just because I'm a hobbyist you're not allowed to dislike it or criticize it", Nexus has always been like this specifically for modders though, like it doesn't matter how constructive you are or not
Not to mention how much the modding issues are also hand in hand with modders like that Knight's Cavalry dude who doesn't realize people play with way more mods and then says it's just load order issues when it really sounds like he made a bunch of unannounced changes in his mods that make it impossible to run with other things and just throws an attitude at ppl in nexus comments regardless of how they detail how they know how to do load order stuff.
