Nelson, on the deck of Victory wearing all of his bling, was shot through the body by a sharpshooter in the rigging of an adjacent enemy ship. He lived for another three hours after being shot, having been carried below decks where he said, as he died, "Thank God, I have done my duty."
He didn't surrender because, cearly, you weren't doing enough damage. you should have upgraded your 26-gunned 6th rate sloop with the 18" guns and used HE. Could have saved weight by reducing your Mast Planking to Oak III. Add some Spar Torpedo launchers for good measure.
@@TheHistoryGuy In hindsight in the first battle (with the Mercedes), should you have had the Ceres board her while you dealt with the Galga? When I amass more doubloons I will buy the game, and want to get some tactical insights. Also, would firing at the rigging have worked to immobilize the Mercedes?
It looks nice enough... but there's never enough SMOKE in these games. That's one of the defining attributes of paintings and movies depicting naval battles of this era... vast clouds of smoke. I also wish there was a way to get down to deck level, perhaps even walk around. It's something I've always wished World of Warships did, too.
picatdim naval action had some of the best atmosphere. The smoke got huge and thick and if you drift far off from the main battle. The distant sound of cannons foing off was phenomenal. Plus it just looked good. Its a shame they kept restarting the game and ruining the player base
History Guy Gaming. Lord Nelson was shot on the decks of victory by a sniper in the enemy's rigging. He died below shortly afterward. The bullet went through his chest and I think injured his lung that caused his lung to fill up with fluid. There is a video on you tube I watched about nelson but I forgot what it was since it was years ago.
Oh, land combat is here too. That's pretty cool, I knew they obviously have that in ultimate general, almost thought this would be nothing but sea based at first. Might actually pick this one up
It's funny though seeing a company of 90 men discharge their muskets at close range at another of 30 men, only to kill just 3-4. I was expecting something like at least double or triple that number.
@@meilinchan7314 Its kind of historical in some ways, muskets weren't the most accurate always. But I guess it's one of those simulation oddities that is on some randomizer
TW Empire is a decent enough game in it's own right, but TW Napoleon is superior were combat is concerned, Especially the sea battles looked a lot better. If the devs of Ulrimate Admiral: Age of Sail could bring it up to that level i would definetly buy it.
Thanks for the play through, this game for land combat is the pits...love seeing units with 50% casualties that have surrendered just magically reappear. Because that happens...
This looks very interesting and keen to get a crack at playing it myself. From this mission, even on easy levels, key note is to man/defend what you've captured, be that on sea or land.
This one looks far better than Civil war. Good to see that Game labs are able to make such a deep game. I wonder what they will develop after Dreadnoughts and Age of sail.
nice surprise.... i love that they " kinda" stayed with the option selection like UGCW.. this have changed my whole view of it , i wasnt super hyped . bc UA Dreadnoughts have stolen all my time i bought both games.. and chose to let this rest until further UNTIL TODAY.. im hyped again ...
When I get in tight like this and I'm wanting to capture the ship, I switch to grape shot and de-crew the enemy ship. Using solid shot is going to put too many holes in it to safely capture later on.
Nelson had some great luck shot in t he arm forcing it to be amputated A close cannonball strike into brick destroying one eye and a bullet whilst stood on the deck of victory all his medals on and in the uniform of an admiral shot through the lung by an enemy sniper and then kissed by mr hardy
One thing about the ships at the start - they're ships from the early 1800s (you can tell by the style of painting, the rig, the decorations on bows and stern lights), but it's supposed to be 1760s/70s. I guess they just based it all off the Victory.
@@theunicornwar7065 you mean gang banged by the 7th coalition. Yes UK like to call allies as they fear Napoléon to mass draft a new grand army from nowhere and redo all except Russia part. Preventive battle at waterloo. It's in french textbook. He has no choice but to battle earlier to deny forces merging but prussians did come late to the party but because french cav army didn't come too they got flank attacked. And being 110000 vs 70000 French is quite hard as it's a 1:2 odd in offensive battle.
I thought that what happened was a double cutting of the enemy's line, by Nelson's column , and by Collingwood's Column, followed by a defeat in detail of the middle and rear of the enemy line before the Van could return
This is looking to be a good game. If you like the UGCW series this is a really pleasant upgrade from that. I wish they could implement a sandbox world map for the campaign. perhaps in the future. question, how can you make more troop ships? i bought a marine officer but cant add him to my ships. thoughts?
Dude those infantry animations and models are on point. So much better than UG Civil war. And I freaking LOVE UG Civil war. I can' not wait to play this. Awesome awesome awesome. I am so excited
The one thing that i fear with this game is that the ship mechanics are straight up copied from Empire: Total war and Napoleon: Total war. and i wouldn't be surprised if CA and Sega launch a legal challenge against them for that.
I don't think you can really copy the mechnaics, in a pure technical sense since they use a different engine. And while they are similar in places, just look at the ammo typ selection, most of those are pretty obvious choices for how to do things. Imperial glory was also similar in places and didn't get sued.
Imagin that UGCW would have "friendly fire"...what a difference this would make! I hope this time they will do a multiplayer-function! That would be awesome.
Only american and brit campaings ? Too bad, first thing that I don't like in the game...a part that I can imagine an ''american campaign'' without the French and Spanish navies...
This is a super early access build man. US campaign cause the main dev is american and british because of course. There will be others, don't doubt that.
I find the battles in UG are much better in giving you a feel as if it were a huge battle. And in CW you have more flavor as you spend so much time building your army if youre into order of battle customization. The graphics are 2D but i didnt really mind because the battles are so much better. TW has the dynamic campains but UG stays fun throughout wheras TW gets boring for me in the mid and late game. Id say if youre a fan of the time period get UG
Wait, there's only two campaigns? *Sad French Noises* Also, it seems like if a larger ship gets way too close to a smaller ship, their shots fly over while their targets actually hit. So I would suggest pummeling at them from further away, especially if you don't want boarding actions.
not sure I'm gonna like the game being story driven it or not. I like my games to have opsions of campaigns and set battles and free ranging battles you create. i hope we see that
How realistic is this? In the accounts I've read, the British would often try to board enemy ships. But what you see here is a bunch of sailors on deck with nothing to do in the midst of a battle!
After his amazing Civil War game, I'm afraid this looks quite disappointing and arcadeish. I was hoping he'd do a civil war like game with the Napoleonic era, but greater in scope :(
I agree but you have to keep in mind this is super early access like the release date isnt even known so i bet a lot will be changed and it will be fine tuned so it looks like a different game
knowing darth he'll probably go full on with the next game, I see this game as more not being confident enough yet to take on CA fully. But I do like what I'm seeing here.
I have absolutely, positively, never heard it pronounced the way you're describing. Went to the wikipedia pages for Ceres and it also says it's pronounced the way I said it. Guess it must be an accent thing or something.
The US navy? Really? Before that of the vastly more impactful Spanish/French, etc? Has to be a marketing thing. Given the vast majority of noteworthy conflict in the later stages of the Age of Sail was ultimately a contest between the British, French, Spanish and Dutch with its grand strategic crescendo ending in 1805 I find it extremely laughable that the designers included the US. It should be like some late stage DLC bolt on not a flagship campaign.

Sounds like you'd love Naval Action or Blackwake on Steam :)

Also it's only "leftenant" in the Army, not the Navy.
Yes, Nelson did die at Trafalgar, having crossed the enemy’s “T.”
Too bad French early sniper infantry was too good. Great land forces and weaponry for France.

It looks like Napoleon Total War finally has a successor to be the greatest sailing era naval battle game ever made.
morale of the story is board any ship that has surrendered.
I think I would have grabbed it just out of habbit from Total War, going after prize money.
I think you should have changed ammo to grape shot or tried to destroy the sails, it may have been a quicker victory.
Big fan of Ultimate General but this one looks even better! Can't wait to play this game!
going to be so much fun to play
Yeah Nelson Died at Trafalgar 1805. wreaths are still laid on his tomb every year on Trafalgar day 21 oct
Oh this was the game that combined Hold Fast&Empire Total War
Nelson died when a stray bullet hit him during Trafalgar on H.M.S victory
Stray bullet? What I read said it was a marksman aboard the Redoutable from about 50 feet away.
@@TheHistoryGuy oh i heard it was a stray bullet thanks
It was always thought to be a sharpshooter, but, apparently there is some evidence that the shot might have been a ricochet.
I have heard both stray and sharpshooter. Either way, he was taken down by a musket.
Enjoying this game and your videos so much, watching it again from the beginning ! :)
Thank you!
@@TheHistoryGuy no, thank YOU :)

Boarding as each ship you capture gets you prize money
I do not know what trofolger is but he did die at Trafalgar
Nice to see some of Nicholas Pocock's paintings
Hopefully a French and Spanish Campaign will be an add on.
Ahh man, I enter to find how to add cannons and I am hearing this guy like for ever...
You should bring all your marines (red soldiers) to fight your enemy. To protect the city you have taken, bring a squad of sailors (blue soldiers).
It's Warthunder but set in 18th century.
is the british campaign out now or just a demo
It's the full campaign
When you did two broadsides at once... *British Grenadiers earrape plays*
Why let you march the troops one by one? Why didnt you form real lines with combined firepower?
If you had taken the Mercedes, I think you would have had four brigs (if the Mercedes was a brig)?
I think Mercedes and Galga were Sloops of War
Yk your daughter gorygaming is just adorable😇

Is there going to be a French campaign??? Is the game downloadable at this point???
Not sure about French campaign. Yes game is available but only on their website
Yes sadly Lord Nelson was killed at Trafalgar by a enemy marksmen fruiting fine from the rigging of a French ship he was engaged with.
