The ETW community needed this! Austria is one of those factions I’ve never played much because I always felt their army was the worst in all of ETW. HoC used to do this for rome 2 but he never finished the series so I’m glad to see you do something similar
Thanks my friend hope you are doing well. Yes I plan to do a whole series on this. Got a request for it. Great idea I must say. I actually might do one follow up to this video later today on few things I forgot to say about Austria
Faramir's Rangers I’ve never been able to establish one as more dominant than the other. Howitzers I find are best for anti infantry and can be used anywhere on the battle field. Foot artillery being best for counter battery fire and taking down walls. Horse artillery being great when you need to take key positions quick.
I think they all have their uses strengths and weaknesses. I did a video on art many many moons ago that I need to redo and update. You are so right about howitzers
Man, that video got me all jacked up to watch a battle!!! Holy smokes! Thanks for the upload, it's appreciated. Hope all is going well and safe on your end!
Glad you enjoyed it! Things have just been super crazy for me lately. I can't wait for normal to return whatever normal is I can't even remember lol. Thank you so much as always and you stay safe as well.
LOL, yea, I went from thinking about it to getting the game out. I'm not PC savvy so it takes me a few days to get it and the mod running, lol. I'm looking at DLC (extra units etc) and they are selling complete one with all of them. So it would be cheaper to buy a new game. ( i hate Steam)
If you support a UA-camr, you need to watch every minute of their video. UA-cam does not count "likes" or comments, they track how many minutes were watched.
It is Austrian lines low moral and slow reload that makes them weak. They need support to be truly effective. They can hold out with attrition if you have units near to keep their moral intact
@@FaramirsRangers I see. never ran in to that issue really then again i don't play with austria so idk really. but there status especally with holding and compeating for the balkans and the multinational state does lead to moral issues along with wastefulness of manpower. but austria can over come that with many means and in darth mod there line can get 400 men apeace with the russian line 450 and with the nations of the desert and india with 500 etc. but yeah with out support and other stuff they are weak. :( but they do fight the ottomans etc so they do get veterncy real quick etc. also thanks for the like comments. :)
I'm looking to get back into Total War. Would everyone say Empire is the best? I might get shogun 2 and Warhammer 2 but Empire seems to still be on top.
LikeUnto Buddha I mostly play vanilla but darthmod and empire total factions are the 2 I have most experience with. The later only changes playable factions.
As someone who started with attila i would HIGHLY suggest empire because imo the economis are alot easier compared to attila and other tw games atleast. Yes the ai is kinda dumb but still id say empire takes the cake!
@@etusuku763 although I have never played attila I can say your comment makes a great deal of sense to me. I think much like etw all the older titles got economy better than the newer total war games. Anyway I am glad to hear you are with us who love ETW and still play. Thanks so much...

Faramir's Rangers looking forward to it. I think it would be interesting to do an artillery guide as well
Nice idea. I will have to put that on my list

The fact that Grenzers can only be recruited in Croatia is VERY crucial, ty! ^^

So true I hope I make it entertaining enough to keep them on my videos.
thisk guides are soo nice as i just started a new campaign as the austrians and its nice to get some inside into the tactics
They can but they have to be in woodland
If only the Windbusche Jaegers had the ability to remain hidden while firing as they have air rifles which means no smoke flash and less sound
Austria is my favorite faction. Fascinating history, majestic units, and the true rulers of Germany!
Every time I see you playing empire I get my army make ranger army fast I can so I don't lose my one gruard sorder
Do you save your army builds?
Yes
Please continue this series
I am. Glad you like it. Next one out will be Great Britain. Just been very busy so that is why it’s been a minute
So helpful!!! thank you !!!
So glad i could help you out there good buddy. I figured you especially might need this guide 😂
I play with ultra sizes for number and the Austrian line with 200 can out shoot anyone with that extra manpower

Nice weapondry breakdown
I love these videos! You should do Russia next! Great work man!
Thank you Connor. I do have all the nations planned. Problem is work has been super busy for me at the moment so it is just shortly delayed.
@FaramirsRangers I found myself again 3 years later, binging your videos again lol appreciate you
I always enjoy total war I hope they decide to expand on the 1700 or remaster the Empire total war
A remaster would be nice
Lol I just use grenadiers instead of lines

Empire is for me 😁
@@FaramirsRangers Thanks! There is a little DLC I need to get. Your favorite mod is?
