SIEGE OF ESGAROTH - Third Age Total War Gameplay

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.พ. 2025
- It was another beautiful day in Esgaroth, but that was short lived. Rhun sent a small invasion force to take the lake town. Dale desperately rounded up troops to put up a defense. Things were not looking good, but hope was not lost. Elves from Mirkwood sent a small relief force to aid Esgaroth. All the forces will met at the lake town for an epic conclusion. Enjoy :D

Why do I block out the Mini-Map with annotations for Sub battle replays?
I block it out because the Mini-Map gives away who sent in the battle replay. And in most cases whoever sends in the battle replay wins the battle. So I block it to keep it a surprise :D

+Zazxavaxk i have been working out ALL day. im sore ron
The amount of awesomeness in Paladinbob's scenarios is just way too awesome :D Good video apollo and thank you pbob you should be a god damn creator :D
Thanks dude
I loved that intro and the enthusiastic commentary
Thanks :D
Jack Rennie same
PaladinBob, please take your archers off of flaming mode in the future! It lowers rate of fire, accuracy and damage in exchange for a temporary shock to morale. Third Age, relative to Vanilla (and even Kingdoms) has a generalized, across-the-board lowered attack value, increased defense values and hugely increased morale values for units. Of course there are exceptions. This all leads to increased staying power of units, longer engagements and less routes. Case and point: Your 3 watchmen held out outside the entrance and fought to the last man.
As a programmer, Im sure you are aware of all that. IMO, unless there is a chance to route a unit right then and there, it's best to stick with regular shot. This applies particularly so for the reasons above. Just my 2 cents.
+{V.O.D.}_Friedrich will do , fred :D ..to much reliance of the archers here ..relied to much on killing ground and should of held the wall like Apollo said....I did a earlier battle which was going well but it crashed and on the second, windwalker adapted well and did a first fast and then slower controlled attack[nicely done]..and I panicked abit thinking I might loss precious archers on the walls and so withdrawed them :D ...shows there is always more to learn and kudos to windwalker :D
+paladinbob 123 Miss playing with you :) When you're ready to come back message me some time on steam and we'll play some games . Until then, do you mate.
Well, it increases damage, not decreases it.
The more videos I watch the more I realize I don't think I've ever seen paladinbob win a battle.
Palidanbob is a wonderful person for creating these scenarios. And I feel like he was trying to play for sheer epic screenplay for replay . Thanks for the video and the stunning intro Apollo
Thanks for watching :D
I really did like your intro to this one it gave it a lot of depth mixed in with some humor keep up the good work pixelated Apollo I really enjoy your videos
Brian Wilson me to
I think the biggest mistake was Dale using fire arrows the whole battle while the enemy used regular shot and got more accurate killings.
Also Paladdin had multiple opportunities, first with the elves, then when the general charged close to Dale, to close in and target and kill the Rhunic general. Also the elves should have had one or two more units to really balance it out, maybe one cavalry unit. Paladdin would have won for sure if there were a couple tweaks to the scenario
incredible intro by an incredible youtuber
Thanks man :D
I'm really glad you went back to watch the reinforcements. I was getting a bit frustrated looking just at the minimap! And it is pretty cool watching two fights that went on at the same time.
+Isvoor yeah I really didnt want to miss that fight
10/10 for intro , great video appolo
Thanks man :D
I'm Leo, the creator of this custom settlement. And I approve this video.
how do i install it? where does the folders go? plz halp!
All the information you need is here:

Not all custom settlements are available in custom battles. But all of them are in the campaign. If you want to play this one in custom battles then you need to learn how to mod.
Had to pause the video after the intro, I seriosly felt some chills going down my back
hahah :P
Damn, I never expected a respone.. Anyways, what do you think is the most memorable battle you've posted online?
There has been a lot of great battles, but I will always remember my 10,000 Knights Siege battle. Such a crazy ending
Paladin Bob never ceases to impress me with these amazing custom scenerios
"hes put up this small defence" *sees dwarves sitting there* 27:36
lol dat intro
+Brady Stevens :D
+Pixelated Apollo A+ on the intro
+Pixelated Apollo It reminds me of some kind of strange tolkien war-roleplay ASMR lmao
+Brady Stevens Reminds me of skyrim
Damon K Yeah kinda lol i should know 300+ hours in skyrim there is also a skyrim mod for medieval
Great introduction, I really love it!
This Battle its one of my favourite because I liked how u Pixelated Apollo are comments this battle in the start ;) its realy cool. Great job DO
Great battle! I was on the edge of my seat the entire video!
Epic intro
Nice intro man, love the battles, i thought battle for middle earth 2 was cool but Third Age Total War is like the best game ever invented XD
on the scale of 1 to 100 my answer is 100 because you make the best vids ever ,everyday i wait for your new videos and when i see a new vid I always watch it first
that intro tho, its like im actually there
19:23 "Dammit man switch to the Elves, switch to the Elves!" Ha
That guy that bugged out...I've had it where there were 3 or 4 different dead troops in medieval 2 still standing
even though you are a nerd, I still love your videos. keep up the good work man. love these battles
that intro was amazing
great intro, just fantastic!
OMG I love these story battles!
One of the best intros and almost 30.000? Omg ı remember the 2.000 :D
that bow cav really made a big difference
Another great third age battle Pixelated Apollo!
BEST INTRO EVER DUDE!!!!!!!!
it was a good battle the paladinbob decisions were the reason why he lost so many mistakes and they were really obvious.
This intro tho....love it!!! really awesome siege
Thanks man :D
That intro is pretty epic. lol. Not sure why defenders gave up the gate, seems a perfect place to set up a choke point. Giving up control of the gate and town square gave Rhun the opportunity to bring its superior numbers to bear on the defenders. The elven relief force is too underwhelming, just as well to not have bothered.
This was a good commentary.
Is there a way to put this as a custom battle for single player? For sieges and different factions to play in like Minas Tirith and Hornburg maps? Awesome videos also dude!
Seriously you made the beginning of the video seem like it was the beginning of an Elder Scrolls game.
+Dark_Wolf6211 haha awesome :D
It only missed one thing, you weren't a prisoner.
Gosh, that's what I call an intro! ;)
I would left the ballista there and supported it with cheap melee troops, then loaded the walls with archers, then target the catapult.
Love the model of Lake Town !! who did that? Shout their name from the Highest uTube ! :)
You almost, ALMOST, sounded like Alex the Rambler. lol
Coolest intro yet!
I really love your Third Age Battles, but most of them have a worrying lack of dwarfs.
This one had some dwarves in it lol
+Simon Tusch or really bad decision making by the players
Epic intro.You sir.You are the best..
that intro was awesome.
Definately one of my favorite battles
That intro is great ! :)
good vid literally stuck to my tablet
Nice editing Apollo
really epic intro
i would really barricade myself :D
i'm too scared
"This battle has just begun!" 3/4 parts inn
Wow that intro was awesome
Amazing intro I really like this reinforcement thing
Thanks man :D
man that intro was amazing
Haha thanks
Great intro Apollo :D!
Thanks :D
God job Apollo. Creative intro
Thanks man :D
Your videos are really good I watch all your videos
Intro is hilarious!
I love that intro!
these videos are ao enjoyable lol the rally!!
got chills by the intro great vedio
I absolutely love the story and do you play multiplayer third age with MOS? Because DaC doesn't seem to work for me on multiplayer.
For online I just use Third Age
luved the intro =D
as always thank you Apollo for another great video even through I prefer the longer ones I don't know why any way I think paladin bob should have tried to snipe out the catapult with the balista and then at the first choke point reinforce it and he should have tried to snipe the general and us the elves archer on the runic archers that were on the wall he could have won like that
I like how you started
What a start!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I F#cking loooove this Epic Intros!!
awesome dude nice storytelling
+Fargorn 13 thanks man!
when pixelated Apollo said, "knock knock, here's come harad," I think he meant rhun instead of harad XD
Bad guys are winning nice.
I love your intros
I wish there is a next battle when the elves try to win back the lake town
It doesn't feel like PaladinBob had much of a chance. But then, sometimes it just seems that way. At least the first Dale force outside the gates getting cut down and the elves being so few didn't help.
Always cheering for apollo and paladinbob!!!!!! Bob the Legend!!!!!
+Pixelated Apollo how do you get so good graphics by Medieval II total war?
Like the introduction
Intro of the gods
Lake-Town looks very accurate to the book!
Are you still doing the dwarves campaign @Pixelated Apollo
Would have had schiltrons overlapping each other at the gate with longbows on the wall slaughtering the Rhun as they crossed the bridge. Cycle in the elite units helping the shiltrons fight at the gate. Retreat to choke points once shiltrons get depleted hopefully longbows and elites still healthy. PB gave up too much ground. I use to turn on fire arrows and let loose but would now use regular arrows b/c they are reliable in long run imo. Watching your videos makes me I wish I still had MTW2
I wonder why bob didn't just defend the gateway since there weren't any holes in the walls.
paladinbob there, sniffing glue.
bob might actually have one if he had been a bit smarter in the late game... A: turn off fire ammo, or at least aim at the troops in the back during melee engagements, B:send in more infantry at that chokepoint, and C:kill that *** general
+Beth Hessel yeah there were some big mistakes
and i've only played 20 something hours, all vanilla.... amazing how much i learned from watching your videos :)
4:18, yes, the loke-Gamp Rim are skirmishers
u posted this on my b-day
#Pixelated Apollo i like that intro i mean i just loved it i would just love it so much more though if u do it more possibly every single time dont get mt wrong u can still switch it up every once in a while but its ur choice and i respect that do what u want but i woould at least like it if u did more intros like that
nice beginning
Can someone tell me what the numbers in the upper left corner mean?
AMAZING intro :D
Thanks man :D
it felt like the intro to an old elder scrolls game
This is my fav video more dale videos
good game paladin, but the micro cost you pretty heavily all around
Could you do a video or put me on the right path to find a video on how to download Third Age?? Thanks
Best intro I've ever.
+Slothmaster :D
+Pixelated Apollo oops forgot to finish that phrase.
I just watched the second Hobit movie, this will be great!
Nice intro!
