Many many mistakes done during this battle: -Always do coordinated attacks when you assault a castle -As a defender ALWAYS occupy the walls with your archers = better protection from enemy arrows + they can shoot straight at the enemy (instead of doing giant U shape shots) so better accuracy. When an enemy melee unit goes up the wall, withdraw your archers, and charge with a melee unit, re-position your archers on another part of the wall to fill gaps or behind to continue to shoot on the enemies who already climbed up the wall. -NEVER send a lone unit to charge the enemy as a defender, its a complete waste of unit. (except if its against a group of isolated enemy archers)
A life of a soldier for the sole surviving Portuguese arquebusier would be awesome. Think of his situation. He was probably recruited in some tavern back in Lisbon for mercenary service in the Far East. Shipped for months in a stinking ship though dangerous seas only to arrive in Japan in the middle of the Sengoku Jidai period. His regiment was send to support some Japanese Christian warlord against his compatriots. The worst part is that the other side was smart enough to hire out a mercenary regiment of Portuguese as well. After that bloody fight and being the sole survivor of his regiment and this miracle of a victory, he is stranded all alone in a distant land, far from home and with people thinking him being little more than dirt.
bob saggzs man learn history. the time period of this war like 1500 and tom cruise acting as samurai is like era when japan going to modern stuff like raifel in 1800.
Wow. Well played to the defenders. I thought for sure the attackers would easily overwhelm them eventually, but then as we get to the end, it was clear the tables have turned and the defenders were coming on top. That was a really impressive Pyrrhic victory for the defenders.
Something to note about attila, troops actually can gang up on eachother. Look closely and you can see several diferent troops swinging at once. Troops do duel, but the duel can be interrupted. I have literally seen a berserker about to deliver the killing blow before being shot by an arrow, after which the guy he was dueling got back up.
I hate the fact that's now nearly impossible for me to play this game online. I never leveled up my avatar army when the game first came up, so now when I try playing, my army gets demolished
I had that happen to me too. I played online with only the base game too, and with most players playing with Fall of the Samurai I was really at a disadvantage. Once I finally got Fall of the Samurai, I got a friend of mine to play against me and we leveled each other up until we could play against the high level players, and then we generally teamed up against them.
Hey Pixie! One tip, the Nodachi Samurai use the sword: nodachi (also called am odachi). It was about the blade was about 2.2ft long w/the handle being about 6inches. But the blade was much thicker and stronger than a katana. In history, katana were mainly a back up sword for the archers and other spear like troops
I've had Shogun 2 battle last quite awhile, but usually on on better tier castles or on FotS DLC. This is actually the Kyoto map, which isn't anything special. Other castles can be much harder with more levels, less gates and space on each level to bring in your whole army. This one is much easier to siege, with plenty of room to move around armies. Also....nodachi samurai use nodachi's....not katana's :P
The reason the defenders won because 20 minutes passed. on Avatar battle sieges the attacker has 20 minutes to either kill all defenders or take the tenshu.
Had to rewatch this haha Came from bannerlord tho haha But it still felt as if this vid was recently uplpaded anywys. Love that you still have that energy. Best ytberr
Pixie the Yumi(bow) didnt have as much draw weight as some other bows out there, so they werent really meant for great range.(being most effective at 30 yards or less) Angling em like that to get that range would create a relatively slow arrow compared to, say a longbow or a crossbow, as they are shooting against gravity more than bows made for long distance.
hey, Apollo, I know this comment is about the wrong game, but there's a mod for Warhammer called "The Heart of Battle" it turns the "quick" battles into long grinds in a more natural way than unit stat manipulation (it seems).
At the beginning Apollo was talking about the 1st player having a couple attendant units but mainly cheap ashigaru units. Little did Apollo know that attendants are cheaper and weaker than ashigaru. (Obviously it would depends on the situation, but I mean in general)
Ho there Mr. Apollo! I have procured and battle replay of the Total War Rome II variety, and it's just fine, just a fine battle replay. So I was wondering if you accept Rome II, as it never happens. It's not the longest, but it's a good battle. I think it'd be nice to see, just for a special thing, because I've never seen a Rome 2 replay on your channel. I believe it's about 10 minutes long maybe, but I could get another one and just have either the longer one, or both.
Are there no shields in this game? Japanese had portable wall shields that ranged units would have used and I'd imagine in a situation like this they'd want to build some defence against those archer gates.
Does Pixelated Apollo have Third Age submods? If so, what are they? And if not, why is it that on my vanilla TATW I am incompatible for ALL multiplayer queues?

Your videos are cool
Jidai means period so you basically just said sengoku period period
I would enjoy that!
Man ain't shogun just a beautiful game, they should really try and make more mods for it cause damn it's beautiful.

I love the contrast between the castles of Japan and Europe. It would be cool if we could see a Shogun 2 siege on a settlement with 3 of 4 tiers.

You butchered the name.

Hey, I need some help. You know those mini flags attached to the samurais' backs? My units don't have those, and my graphics are on high. Help please?
You should do a life of a soldier on the solo portuguese gunner

"Eeeeyy what's up guyyys it's Apollo here! Hope you guys are doing well. . . " This is the most beautiful sound of my day.
Sometimes I click the wrong Pixelated Apollo video but stay the first 10 seconds just to hear him say the intro. So enthusiastic!
Something to note about attila, troops actually can gang up on eachother. Look closely and you can see several diferent troops swinging at once.
Troops do duel, but the duel can be interrupted.
I have literally seen a berserker about to deliver the killing blow before being shot by an arrow, after which the guy he was dueling got back up.
shogun 2 is such a beautiful and atmospheric game!
and pixelated apollo is great as always ! keep the good work up
That was great, the most entertaining of your Shogun videos I've seen so far! That lone Portuguese soldier was a brave man.
Btw the defenders general is not important when the final battle is in the top part of the battle because those units have infinite morale
I hate the fact that's now nearly impossible for me to play this game online. I never leveled up my avatar army when the game first came up, so now when I try playing, my army gets demolished

basically lose until you level up strategy or play with a friend for those who have friends

"Nodachis charge with their katanas"...
3 years late.. but katana literally translates to "sword of japanese origin"
@@Alucard33592 yes but a nodachi is an entirely different weapon, so the nodachi soldiers wouldn’t use katanas. It would make no sense
@@theoni8739 I get it, but its technically not wrong

totally top 15 total war fights ive ever seen. good fight m80.
This game is so aesthetically beautiful!
Any idea of what mode is this?
Apollo, had this thought: can we get a shirt that fits the saying "what can you do against such reckless hate?"
Make sure the shirt is mustard yella
i wonder what that 1 gunner is gonna do now
like hes the only one
LoganGamingYT ! Buy armor and a katana and join a unit of katana samurai
he will return to his people and sing the song to his children of how he lost all of his men in the war
I think that's the first shogun 2 battle I've seen that ran out of time
Good to see some Shogun 2 back on your channel!
Pixelated apollo: ''He's got some nuns. They're about to go nunts''
Me: ''Facepalm'''
Haha! He went LeRoy Jenkins on them! Apollo! You are great man! I'm glad you have this channel for us! Keep it up! Big fan!
Shogun 2 is back, nice video apollo!
I remember this from when I was young. I love your content Apollo it is so good!
I love your videos there so good I’m glad you are a TH-cam thank you
Love ur stuff Apollo, 4pm is my new favourite hour (I live in the UK)
Wow Apollo loved my comment, my life is complete 😇😇😇
The reason the defenders won because 20 minutes passed. on Avatar battle sieges the attacker has 20 minutes to either kill all defenders or take the tenshu.
This is the best total war video I’ve ever seen
The occasional Shogun 2 video always reminds me it was freaking awesome, makes me want to re-install! Great vid as usual Pixie.
love shogun 2, my favorite total war. loving that you did a video on it :)
MrThanefull it has great battle mechanics its one of my favorites too
yay finally some shogun 2 thanks I've been waiting a long time
Awesome video Apollo!! Seriously nice battle you got there :)
A bit of trivia for you PA, those balloons, they used to fill up when they rode, then they made wicker baskets so they were inflated all the time.
I would love to see a community napoleonic wars commander battle one day. I really enjoy when you do community battles keep up the great work!
"Doesn't matter how good you are at swordfighting, you can't stop bullets"
In every battle, there's this lone survivor wandering on the battlefield. Poor guy
Stayed up until 2am for a new vid
Was not disappointed
Life of a soldier for someone in this battle, so many good ones.
Love these battles, keep upp the Good work Apollo!
Had to rewatch this haha
Came from bannerlord tho haha
But it still felt as if this vid was recently uplpaded anywys. Love that you still have that energy. Best ytberr
I think purpose of the raiders was to delay the attack, wich worked out since that side was the last one to climb the first wall
Pixie the Yumi(bow) didnt have as much draw weight as some other bows out there, so they werent really meant for great range.(being most effective at 30 yards or less) Angling em like that to get that range would create a relatively slow arrow compared to, say a longbow or a crossbow, as they are shooting against gravity more than bows made for long distance.
The attackers timed out, that's how the defenders won. Just for anyone wondering.
you suck
@@moonman8159 ummm wut?
@@moonman8159 you stfu
Perhaps the raiders hidden off were meant to stall for time, so the arrow units have time to fend off the red and gray army?
Awesome battle PA! Would love to see some historical-ish Shogun battles.

Those Nuns were getting kills nun-stop.
I'll walk myself out...
At the beginning Apollo was talking about the 1st player having a couple attendant units but mainly cheap ashigaru units.
Little did Apollo know that attendants are cheaper and weaker than ashigaru. (Obviously it would depends on the situation, but I mean in general)
Wow I haven't seen any of your videos since last November ( due to work ) and there still great
I absolutely love shogun 2, it's so pretty
Do you download the game out of the web, or you use dvd. If it is downloading, please tell how.
yes apollo great vid. more shogun 2 plzz this is awesome
Was sitting here like "no wonder they constantly break, 2 of the generals are not even close enough to be considered the same battle"
Ho there Mr. Apollo! I have procured and battle replay of the Total War Rome II variety, and it's just fine, just a fine battle replay. So I was wondering if you accept Rome II, as it never happens. It's not the longest, but it's a good battle. I think it'd be nice to see, just for a special thing, because I've never seen a Rome 2 replay on your channel.

Hey Apollo! Are we gonna make Shogun 2 great again again sometime?
the no-dachi samurai are called that because the long sword they used was called a noi-dachi and it was much longer than a katana
more shogun! great vids Apollo!
Legend has it...that Portuguese soldier still survived
Will you upload another video of this game with robots in midieval style apollo??? I would really like to see that
Christ that first arrow volley was beautifully brutal
The best Total war Game Ever. Especially the battle animation. it's so realistic
Great video pixey!!!
Are there no shields in this game? Japanese had portable wall shields that ranged units would have used and I'd imagine in a situation like this they'd want to build some defence against those archer gates.
yesterday I saw as a recommended the winged hussars song from sabaton and it got me thinking about a Vienna siege battle what do you think?
i wanna more shogun battle video clips
I'm proud of that lone Portuguese musketeer for fighting for my country
I know I'm late, but those little balloons on the back of the samurai is not inflated but held up by a frame inside.
I love how fast battles are in Shogun 2 who are you and what did you do to Apollo
snacks and beer ready, let's watch this sweet siege!
How do you send replays to Apollo? I've got some great shogun 2 multiplayer replays.
This good sir helps me get through tough times, also I would. Like to see a napoleon total war campaign!!
That was disturbingly beautiful. It is fair to say that the Portuguese unit made some wrong life decisions.
Every time Pixie calls someone hero I can't help but start to sing OPM opening
'They're about to go nuns..uns....' never creased so hard :')
That was intense. It looks so good.

Is Shogun 2 better than Rome 2? Campaign and multiplayer wise?

Depends
they are both good but have their difference
I liked the siege battle of Rome Total War a lot, especially when I use the sapper equipment to topple walls
