Look, if the random Old lady doesn't die in the first Volley of Grenades, the next dozen volleys are perfectly understandable because that ain't no lil ol' lady.
9:40 there was a Chinese general who was ordered to hold a walled city against a larger enemy force. He opened the gates, sat in the gatehouse and played music. The enemy general, convinced it was a trap, held his troops back long enough for the defenders reinforcements to arrive. Not exactly what you talked about, but I thought it would interest people
Chinese? I thought he was Japanese. He had a handful of men, told them to open the gates and make as much as ruckus as they could. The enemy was too scared to enter
@@RedGreekWolf its chinese. That was around 220-280 BC. It was a general that was fighthing a civil war in china known as The three kingdom war. if im not wrong hes name is zhuge liang
@@dejack_13 I think he was confused with Tokugawa Ieyasu, who did some thing similar. During a retreat he opened the doors to his castle lit the torches and beat war drums. their enemies thought it was a trap and made camp instead of attacking. so pretty similar stories.
The most absurd thing is that Constantinople did this TWICE! not only when they lost the city to the Ottomans, but when they lost the Tower of Galata (a critical early loss of defences) in their conflict with the Crusaders of the Forth Crusade, otherwise know as the FIRST sack of the city (and arguably a far worse one than that inflicted by the Ottomans.
9:24 - That's how I won a defensive battle on Rome II once. A faction attacked Rome, but they decided to concentrate all of their efforts onto one entrance, to which my legionnaires slaughtered any who dared climb the ladders.
He has three children. A daughter, who unfortunately due to Middenland law couldn't rule as their Graf. A legitimate son, who unfortunately was inept and sickly. And a bastard son, who was very much capable but was, you know, a bastard.
There was a chinese general during a seige who decided to open the gate and abandon the walls, when the enemy arrived all they saw was him sitting on the gatehouse playing the flute. The enemy general was so certain it was a trap he called off the seige and left
Flooding Stirland during the Silver Seal quest is actually the best option. It makes the following battle SO much easier. If you don't flood Stirland the Vampires pull out a bunch of Crypt Horrors, Ghouls and Grave Guard as reinforcements.
So basically Total War Warhammer is just EU4 with dorfs and elves now? 6:20 How dare you spit on the proud name of Swedish King Gustavus Adolfus. GOTT MITT UNS
Dorfs? DORFS?!?! You miserable umgi, it’s bad enough that you don’t refer to us as Dawi, as our proud race is really called, and we tolerate the name Dwarf, but Dorfs?!?! You can’t even get the word Dwarfs right?!?! That’s going into the Book of Grudges!!!
TW isn't really like EU4. (Relatively) smaller scale, has actual battles, more focus on strategy of them since they're present whilst EU4 is all statesmanship. Total War Warhammer really is unique among its TW brethren in that Mortal Empires campaign encompasses most of its respective world and so as such is actually grand in scale.
DIEGhostfish same with hypogryph knights for Bretonnia, was for Lord’s only but CA made a unit of them don’t see why they wouldn’t do the same for Kislev!
That was a great update! Trying to collect enough elector state units was fun. Only problem, as always, was late game. At some point every state wants to join you almost at once, your empire gets huge very fast with tons of towns that you arent emotionally tied to. Then you just spearhead to Archaon, shoot a cannonball in his face and call it a day.
thanks for this video, this update looks SO good! I played Bretonnia with the legendary lords mod JUST for the lore. Looks like the empire got a fair share now as well!
One of the best things bout Warhammer III compared to any other Total War entry is it allows us to finally stage "THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED" moments with ACTUAL Winged Hussars.
So at 9:50 he starts talking about generals dallying out only for it to fail, and one situation came to mind; Zhuge Liang’s empty fort strategy. Instead of having a force actually in his fort; they were fighting somewhere else if I recall, he is besieged. He has a force of like 30 ish servants and himself. He sits on the open castle gate, and plays the guzheng. The besieging army looks at all the servants who are relaxed and cleaning, to the open gate, and then to Zhuge Liang.. and retreat, fearing a trap
I remember one Warhammer game. Bretonnians vs. Vampire Counts. A Vampire character flew in front of the Bretonnian army and sparked a Terror check, causing 1,800 points of a 2,000 point army to just run off the board first turn. The Bretonnian player was not happy and neither were the rest of his team, who had to finish the fight basically 2 vs. 3.
I know this won’t be seen but I too love when the door breaks and and bunch of stuff is flung at whoever is on the other side, though for me it’s the dwarves and and their many canons and such
pretty much late to answer that but there's The Empty Fort Strategy. Here's wikipedia explenation : The Empty Fort Strategy is the 32nd of the Chinese Thirty-Six Stratagems. The strategy involves using reverse psychology (and luck) to deceive the enemy into thinking that an empty location is full of traps and ambushes, and therefore induce the enemy to retreat. Some examples are listed in the following sections. here's where it was used (also wikipedia) : According to the Sanguozhi, in 195, the Empty Fort Strategy was used by the warlord Cao Cao against his rival Lü Bu in one incident at Chengshi County (乘氏縣; southwest of present-day Juye County, Shandong). In the summer of that year, Lü Bu went to Dongmin County (東緡縣; northeast of present-day Jinxiang County, Shandong) and gathered about 10,000 troops to attack Cao Cao. At the time, Cao Cao had very few soldiers with him, but he set up an ambush and managed to defeat Lü Bu.[1]
The answer is yes there has been a siege like the one you wondered about. During the First English Civil War the governor in charge of Newcastle and with it basically the entire Royal Army of Northern England decided to take the bulk of his troops and march out to go and help the main Army in a battle far away. The battle was a failure and before the survivors could manage to get back to Newcastle Scottish troops had already arrived and put Newcastle under siege forcing the considerably outnumbered and none too impressed guards to surrender not only Newcastle but basically the entire North of England to them on account of having nothing to fight with
There's a mod called Mixus Legendary Lords. As you might have guessed it ads new LL to the game. Summoning the Elector Counts is a lot more fun if they are actual LL with unique items and skill trees instead of some random generals. You might want to check it out.
Theres a mod out there I think called end turn timer exctinction or execution something like that and it just wipes a ton of factions off the map outside of a sphere of gameplay, like to the south and west if you're playing empire since you almost certainly won't go there regardless, up to the orcs and dwarves to the south would still be there for a decently long campaign and the important factions will still be there as well surrounded by empty razed settlements from the other various factions, it's fantastic for reducing turn time and also leaving a challenge for you when you reach very very late game
holy potatoes ive totally missed out on the Ubersreik 5(or was it 4??), i also higly recommend following mods Building Progression Icons II Faction Unit Cards II GCCM: Unique Faction Capitals Dryrain's Reskin Overhaul for added immersion without changing gameplay
during napoleons early carrier during the siege of Toulon (or maybe it was Toulouse) I think one of his batteries got charged by British cavalry and spiked the guns which 'ruins' them not only did napoleon arrive to beat off the assault but he managed to unspike the guns and fire into the rear of the retreating cavalry as they fled back to toulon
Not sure about charging in through a gate you're opening to sally out, but Polish soldiers took some Swedish forts by literally riding inside through open gates in the night.
IIRC, part of why the Ottomans took Constantinople was because they forgot to close the gates. It was negligence, not poorly thought out baiting, but there you go
"I must speak with the elder gods." Passive. Deflects reposibility. Could be considered submissive. "Summon the Elector Counts." Acitve You aren't backing down on your claim for no reason. You are going calling reiforcements because if you fall on this you are going to keep it.

Been a fan of Total War for a few years and 3K is my favorite so far. (Previously was M2 but I can’t stand the bugs anymore) I’ve been interested in the Warhammer games but I never really had any solid interest in any of the factions and I just hate the UI. But the new updates to the Empire look really intriguing. Maybe I’ll pick it up next time there’s a Steam Sale.
9:49 some guy literally accidentally left the gates of Constantinople open during the Ottoman siege of Constantinople in 1453 and singlehandedly made the Byzantines loose the siege and ended the Roman Empire

Hopefully we'll get the actual Winged Hussars of Warhammer when they add Kislev: The Gryphon Legion
Constantinople fell thanks to a guy who left the back door opened
darn, beat me to it. i wont delete my comment, but no one can say i stole it.
When Rimmy accidentally references the Siege of Constantinople and how a sally out left a gate unlocked and the Ottomans just walked in
@TomeOfBattle every culture has something to be salty about, some more than others

Wesley Fravel ah Reichsgaurd knights, winged hussars, but from Germany not Poland, and with halberds! (I think.)
Borris todbringer has a freakish number of bastards and If I remember correctly, no or very few proper heirs
Living up to the standards set by this madlad is quite hard tho
He has three children. A daughter, who unfortunately due to Middenland law couldn't rule as their Graf. A legitimate son, who unfortunately was inept and sickly. And a bastard son, who was very much capable but was, you know, a bastard.
Yes that is, he used to not keep his "blade" sheathed .
There was a chinese general during a seige who decided to open the gate and abandon the walls, when the enemy arrived all they saw was him sitting on the gatehouse playing the flute. The enemy general was so certain it was a trap he called off the seige and left

Coming down the mountain side

Bear riding should really be lords/heroes only, they didn't train them en masse.
