Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Is TH-cam uploading bugged again with the 360?
Hello
No I just uploaded it. It will fix itself soon
@@PixelatedApollo1 ok nice, but otherwise it would still be worth it to wait for a Rome Total war battle.
Thank you have I happy St. Patrick's Day to and love ypur videos
“The AI’s getting something done!”

Outstanding move
Dude that was heroic. props to that dude doing every possible thing to survive and win , put up a ferocious battle
Look at my channel, please th-cam.com/video/5x2Brzek_aI/w-d-xo.html
Spartains are op when i was playing rome total war with rome, i was attacking sparta and they had 3 units i had 6 and all 6 ran away,with a 1 single unit alive with like 4 people in it,it pissed me off
Yes the Germans really did do that....
Oh wait....
Wrong thing....
And they LOST?
Oh.
Ok.
Yes, they lost.......

"Good, no matter what way we face we have enemies to kill"

We fight to the last man
"Sir, we are surrounded!"
"Good, because when we win we dont have to find the remaining enemy."

“Good now we can attack in all directions”

@@delanovanraalte3186 Imagine getting defeated by a band of homosexuals from a random insignificant city
@Ken Penalosa Kinda a stereotype but certainly not Sparta. Sparta was the most authoritarian civilization you would've seen; no room for those rights
I think instead of giving the control to the AI, they should give it to the guy who is not Afk
I've seen some games where there is "take" functionality, where you can select some units from an AFK player, and claim them as your own. Probably my favorite implementation for dealing with AFK players.
@@300fans yess it would be fair for everyone
With Total War, though, you would need to keep morale tied to the original general for the troops you take. Otherwise people would exploit it to keep morale up after someone's general dies.
But how would they handle it if its 3v3? And one of the players are afk which of the not afks get the units?
@@foxtrothermite6499 That is exactly why you use the "take" functionality instead of giving the units to players randomly. Players have to manually select and choose which units they want to become theirs. If no one takes units, the units just sit there until someone does. You do not take the entire army, just the few units that you choose to take, or the entire army if you choose so.
Sparta: Right, so I'm gonna go deal with these Romans-
Armenia: But what do I do?
Sparta: Sit there and look cute little dude.
Armenia: Ok papi.
Rome: i am going to win
Sparta: yes, you are, but let me make you sustain heavy casualties and make your army shatter, while killing off your most prized troops, and turning the place into a bloodbath, also maybe killing off more troops, and when you have won, you will look at the battlefield with despair knowing that you'll never get those men back, and maybe even get PTSD, and when you go to sleep, every warrior whom been slain will scream and haunt you
That's what made the battle of Thermopylae such a win. Even though the Spartans were defeated, the tens of thousands of casualties and the time wasted were crucial for Persia, and also why the following battles were a victory for Greece.
Now that is what is known as a Pyrrhic victory
@@thetemplar6586 Its also known as a Kadmian victory from Hellenen city and the Thebean mythological cicle.
let us fight wars with no survivors
Lmao even if Rome won they kinda lost. If they return back home the people will thought they lost because they saw a bunch of ptsd messes
When you talked about the never quit attitude it reminded me of a battle where I made a glorious comeback, and I was thinking to myself that I'll have to send you a replay but then someone quit.
What do you think of my channel?

Rome: Attacks spartan general
Sparta:Routes five or more units of romans
Rome: NO thats not how ur suppose to play the game
Never attack Spartans head on.
"General ! Our ally general deserted and his forces are abandoning the fight, what shall we do?"
"Have you heard about someone called *Leonidas* soldier ?"
Soldier: yes sir the one who have fought with 300 soldier and killed thousands of Persian
Didn't he say Tonight we dine in hell
@@tankleader2158 it was'nt only the 300 spartans they had allies aswell
@@evilmojito4924 Actually there were 300 Spartans 700 Thespians (and 400 Thebeans-not sure) till the 3d and last day.The gate was hold for 2 days from more than 5200 Soldiers from many Hellenen cities.
@@DeRon911 and in the morning, he's making waffles.

The thing with the hybrid hoplites makes sense cause hoplites had back up swords not just spears.

@@BigAl2-u7e Napoleon did not expect that the scorched earth strategy of the Russians especially when it was winter would be very effective. He did conquer Moscow, unlike Hitler you know. But with the scorched earth strategy and the vastness of Russia, it was too difficult to maintain the supply lines.

@@lordofthephoenix1609 drzi se brate, ljudi jos uvek ne shvataju ozbiljnost situacije
in my first ever campaign of Rome 2, I played wrath of sparta and in one of my first battles my Gen of Royal Spartan turned the tide of battle alone killing 500+ enemies
My first campaign my general got killed by a garrison slinger in a village.
He's the first casualty.
@@canthurtcrt7370 lmao, made me chuckle
The never give up attitude reminds me of how I was playing Pontus and I was fighting Egypt and Sparta alone, then I killed off Egypt, and took out half of the Spartan army despite my entire team begging me to forfeit
"They don't care if there's a thousand of them they'll fight you" said the exiled Spartan King to Xerses regarding the Spartans holding Thermophylae.
Odds against Sparta? No problem!
They have though he'll and back I mean they had 300 vs like 100000000 and they still fought them head on but lost after like 14 days
someone random well they had around 7000 against 100000 and then were defeated but still it was a hell of a stand
@@bromhead952 i am talking about the battle of thermoply
someone randumb
That WAS Thermopylae. There were about 7,000 Greeks and around 70,000-300,000 Persians that ended in a Persian victory.
Thebes is better than Sparta anyways.
someone randumb Yes but you are talking about a fantasy movie, and he means how it really was...
Lol go out like Davey Crocket "I'm a real screamer" hahaha
That last stand! It reminds me of the "300" movie. They were outnumbered and sure to lose but the went to the bitter end. Epic!
You do know that “Spartan hybrid soldiers.” That could have swords? Well in real life the Spartans DID use swords. They used them after their spears broke.
Yep, i think spartan units should be redone, just adding button to switch to sword which will change some stats, like increase dmg or something
I wish I had a replay of a single player battle I had where as the Romans I was fighting like 3-4 full Athenian stacks with 1 army and a garrison. My artillery were doing danger close fire into masses of Athenian soldiers, and due to a lack of micro my cavalry was wiped out and in order to try and deal with the archers I sent out a group of peasants to chase them to the end of the map and ordered them to come back and charge the rear of the Athenian army and assumed I was going to lose since my front line were getting close to 2 man thick. The last second the peasants came back and with a single rear attack routed the entire enemy army.
Noice
Me: *Watching total war*
Internet be like: "I hate you." *lags playing 360p*
Me: "I dun care." *watches with 144p*
Never surrender!
The never give up attitude!
7:30 Maybe because spartans only carried a short sword called a xiphos. This secondary weapon would have been used if the crush of battle rendered a hoplites spear useless or if it was broken. Same like asking why CA didn't let the Germans to have elephants.
But that would be nice if they were able to use that secondary weapon.
If they hadn't allowed the towers to be neutralised, they would have won.
They didn't allow i think it's just if a enemy soldier happens to be on the circle the tower goes down but and then it requires a whole unit of the defence to put it back up
24:15 I would be disheartened by that sight. You've fought for hours and what remains of your army is a few depleted units of wounded men, but your enemy marches up with several organized, fresh units. I would give up at that point
thats how spartan are made they were trained and recruited at the age of 7 and made them fight each other.
Hey, look. Henry is here!
Dude that was just so much fun to watch!!! I have tremendous respect for that player, for sticking with it!!
It is absolutely amazing how positive he always stays, especially in this times he absolutely makes my day
Yes it is Julian gandalf
historically hoplites had swords as a secondary weapon and they usually use it when their phalanx was disrupted, or to go on rampage
The last part isn't true, Sparta were similar to Rome, where they believed in strict military discipline, and forming strong lines, hence why the hoplites are remembered above all other forces. They did have swords, but it was mostly down two if the phalanx was disrupted, or if they had broken their spear. Their swords would lash out from behind the shield, and reform straight after.
Watching this made me cry honestly. Like wow. This was like another Thermopylae. That had to be one of the best matches I have ever seen man, and the fact it was Roman’s he was facing! One of the best offensive factions for a siege, like wow. Truly a treat and an honor to watch this, and going out in true Spartan fashion; “if we will die this day and our enemies emerge victorious then make them pay for this victory in blood!”
Some really good feels about watching this. That general having 300+ kills alone was just freaking awesome !
**SPARTA, we salute you!**
I feel this guy man, respect for hanging in there! NEVER GIVE UP
Thx
I think Macadon is another good faction for defending because they also have a good combo of all units
macadon is good at defending but not as good at sparta. Macadon has great shock cav whereas sparta has none (i think they may have citizen cav but cit cav sucks major balls)
@@agentbarron3945 hmm agree with this... btw what about Epirus?
At the begging those soldiers were just vibin and doing their squats
Roman general unit: sir they outnumber us 5 to one
General: then it is a fair fight
Sparta was the exact same way lol
"One more victory, and we are done."
-Romans 😆
Those Romans fighting the general would be like ::
What can a Man do against such madness.
"Spartans do not ask how many, but where they are." I think it might have even been Rome TW1 that taught me that.
Man I miss my days of playing Shogun 2, on my crappy Pentium 4 PC (got for free when my employer was liquidating). Now that I have a pretty good PC, I don't really have the time or wherewithal for all that competitive gaming stuff. But that's why it's nice that I can live vicariously through channels like this, reliving the glory days. (Did anybody else watch FishSandwichPatrol's battle videos? Wonder how he's doing these days...)
I had some truly incredible battles. Shogun 2 (pre-FOTS) was the pinnacle of the series IMO, but I have to admit I didn't spend much time with Medieval, basically none with Empire. At least a thousand hours on Shogun 2.
What you say is true, too, about opponents appreciating a good fight. As long as you're not kiting around with 1 cav unit just to waste time, people love a good honest scrap.
Scenario: the Gaul forces and their allies are under siege by the Romans, Rome was close to victory and the enemy retreating, but one commander decided to stay and fight to the last, this is their last stand.
Merciless Shadow
*their
its another series for the spartan history... called "The 200" (Spartan General)
The Spartan general with 300 kills causes a mass rout.
Wait a minute. Spartans, 300,general. OMG it's Leonidas' son
All spartan kings and 300 guards.
There are like 5 people claiming first
That means their all first or none of them are.
Looks like rome kinda pulled through at the end on the pike flank...you can see a bit of it when the piles broke the enemy cav
Soldier :Sir were surrounded
General :Good so we dont have to move
Hey man i’m italian this virus stuff has kept me home for the last eleven days.
I’m grateful for ur videos i’m big fan of yours,been following since probably 150k subscribers and if you aint gonna read this comment i just Wanted to thank you for awsome work Who keeps me From getting bored in theese quarantine days
Keep safe bro 😊
Respect any gamer with the none quit attitude, especially when they’re on my team. I don’t mind losing but if you quit and give up that shit really annoys me.
Everyone: “How long can you defend?” Sparta: “yes”
"Give up, You're surrounded!" "All I'm surrounded by is fear, and dead men."
Sparta's Allies: Abandon Sparta Sparta: Just another Tuesday at Thermopylae. Props to the Pellas.
Everybody gangsta till the Praetorian guard and their Centurion, show up.
I was really excited and thinking this may have been my replay, but wasn't. Still a really cool video. Love ya Apollo, and enjoy watching everything you put out
Kingman:
NO Retreat, No Surrender - THAT, is Spartan Law..
And BY Spartan Law we will STAND and FIGHT...
and die...
Hallelujah, that was an intense Spartan demonstration of morale and character. But also the Romans never gave up to break through...only the other defender was singing: I want to break free...RIP Freddy👑
spartan general is like "oh were surrounded now it's an fair fight!"
i biblicaly watch all of your battles on here and by far, even with all of your old seige videos...this was the best one. It truly captures the spartan spirit. TO THE LAST MAN!!
When the AI started moving the scorpions right behind the phalanx it broke me 🤣🤣
Wow. I'm.... this is the first time I've gotten here early. Normally I'm like 3-4 days late.
I'm always months late lmao
@@Gozkiel I used to be like that, but I've finally began to manage to get time to watch
5 hours late I'll never get to see a live stream.... 😭 Lol
Good thing that there was no traitor Spartan to tell the Romans about the secret goat pass
This is Sparta
I really like your introduction. It's a lesson of life.
Anyway, i was playing troy total war and i was attacking Troy with all my armies to conquer it. The defense was simply too strong and destroyed almost all my units. I had just 3 units of centaurs and a few arpies. I reorganized my forces in the center of the city and i attacked with all the strategy i have. Now the city of troy and most of that part of the map is in my control. Total war is such a beautiful saga.
22:48 poor Roman got sniped right in the neck
23:05 I didn't know that about the pila! I've watched roman battles my whole life and I never knew that.
This happened to me on my first online game, Attila total war, and I was attacking. They let me into the castle and we had a fight over the bridge 2v1. Awesome fight, I lost but one of my favourite battles ever 💪🏼
"FORWARD!!!!!!! " .....chills bruh
My Hero -Foo Fighters precedes to play. *salutes as a tear drops from eye*
I wish the weapons could break so the spartans could switch to their xphlycsis's which were their backup weapons after their spears were broken. And it would be cool to see the regular hoplites be able to throw their spears ss well
i am also very curious, why they never added swords into hoplite units. Sword was for that soldier as importan as spear, shield or armor. If they lost spear, or they were unable to use spear, because it was too crowded in first line, then they used swords. Of course main issue of sword fight for Hoplite was huge hoplon shield, that reduced sword-fight possibilities, but still it was main secondary weapon.
Spartan soldier:General they outnumber us 2 to 1
Spartan General:Then it is an even fight
"Generale arminia left us and has left us to fight alone what shall we do"
Generale: SPARTANNNNNN TO WARRRRRRR !!!!!!!
@Apollo: "That's the best case scenario for them", Spartans: Yeah we're surrounded PERFECT! This killed me man been watching your videos like almost a hundred hours bought Rome 2 because of you loving the game!
"Roman has that discipline" Apollo, Spartan babies get thrown off a mountain if their disabled, begins training at age 7, gets beaten through that training, and has to be a soldier until they are 60.
Leonidas in heaven: Hold the ground boiz
I think you mean Elysium
Modern archaeologists actually Think that the pilum was not primarily intended to render shields useless by bending at the tip (though it may have been a nice side effect). The Intention of the tiny, hard tip was probably to penetrate directly through the shield to hit the Person behind it, because the Thin metal end of the pilum was longer than a humans arm. Therefore the pilum was able to hit every opponent by completely disregarding any shield in its way. Kinda like armor penetrating bullets
i think so... bending pilum would be just less effective in general... what they sometime did was fixing the spear head with wooden pinds that would most likely breakafter impact hence couldnt be thrown back effectively.
I remember one of my best battles as a player, ever: my army was a noobie triplex acies and my allies was a horse rush. He got reckt in the first five minutes so both armies rushed me. Y had to cover both fronts, then use the triarii to slowly flank every blob one by one. When the battle seemed lost and my lines were about to break, the leftovers of my ally appeared, and saved me. In the end, i won with only two units remaining. I didnt have time to save it though, and that still haunts me to this day
Congrats on 650k
Holy shit great battle one of the best battles I have watched ty apollo
Bruh they were like
“Defend the Motherland DOWN TO TOOTH HANDS AND NAIL RAAAAAAAAA”
The Spartans will always hold their title as legendary warriors
Wow... So like.. Tbh. Their flank being open is legit history repeating itself haha
So the Spartan officers have swords but the Spartans don’t have any sword units? Lol
7:48 I could imagine a unit that has javilin capabilities then charges in with swort swords. That would be cool.
I have a massive amount of respect for people like this. I always try to do everything possible to the last man so others can have that satisfaction of a good challenge and hopefully have respect for me
Ever since this damn quarantine happened i started binge watching Apollo's videos and now i regret it, i have run out of Rome 2 videos.
Save us Apollo
I regret passing up the Sale. It's my first time watching an actual game play and I didn't know it was this fucking awesome. And your commentary? It really gets me hyped up. Guess I have to wait for another sale on Steam.
"Sir their surrounding us"
"Perfect, now theres enemys no matter where we stab"
This last stand was heroic asf
That's hilarious 😆
Spartan officer:Sir we have two scenarios. One we spread our army thin to make a long line of men or we could get surrounded and stand our ground then completely route the enemy.
Spartan general: ALRIGHT I've got a PLAN... YEET THE HEAT RUN INTO THE ENEMY LINES
Thank you for the compliment in the beginning of the vid apollo
Yeah with what you said about the thorax swordsmen being good in many situations I remembered the Sparta vs Athens battle where that on thorax swordsmen unit was surrounded with Spartans and held for a while
Video ideas PA, top 10 best defensive stands/ attacks/ inventive tactics/ ambushes ECT... I binge these vids but even then it's difficult to keep track of all the good videos or matches that make you shout in disbelief because there's always another one to watch. Just a suggestion. Keep making the good clean content PA!
1943 Italy entered the chat
Bro the never quit attitude happens to me when i just give up, like that...”fuck it.” and i start strategizing and shit and like magically i always win, so i just try to get that feeling everytime.
These are the battles I feel massive gambles are a must. The left flank to my knowledge had no praetorians ( my focus was more on the right). So when the Armenian AI pushed back and charged around I would of sent my spartan general with them. As you see they can not only tank a vastly larger force, but also rack alot of kills. While this risked my general, that left flank Roman army more than likely would of fallen. Then he would be able to either risk even more and send his left army behind the romans or just reinforced the right side with his whole army. The Roman's nearly lost, it was simply the fact the left flank took too long for the spartans to defeat. Meaning the right flank had nothing to reinforce against the Roman elite units.
SweetJuiceColored!! 300 sparta in the video game HAHAHAHA. Love it 😍
Spartan player was extremely skilled and fought tooth and nail, I’m highly impressed.
