- Heya friends, we're continuing with this series due to the constant requests and we take our war-hardened band of high level companions and family members(40+ strong!), and challenge foes in a narrow valley, somewhat similar perhaps to what the Spartans faced 2500 years ago against the Persians... How far can we push these 'Spartans' in Bannerlord? Soon we'll see!
This series has been 'on hold' while other projects came first, but I'll be getting to all of these in due time...
The entire playlist is HERE: • Bannerlord "300" Chall...
Episode 24 as this "300" series remains popular and I have a few more to share. It's getting harder and harder, but I know you guys would expect nothing less. ONWARD SPARTANS, TO BATTLE AND GLORY!!
What prompted this series?
I get asked a lot in my campaign just how strong a small army can be in Bannerlord. So in this episode we take a fantasy trip into another world and time, taking a small breather from my death-match campaign to explore the potential of how strong a hand-picked army of 300 men in Bannerlord can be. This series will show ever-increasingly difficult challenges as I wander the map with my own "Spartans", deploying elite troops into advanced tactics in search of Glory. With some 45 companions and family members, many who are over level 40, we shake our shields and howl our war cries as the enemy closes in.... Enjoy!
Our entire channel is dedicated to helping players improve their field command and if that's your desire, or just want to see huge, dramatic battles, you've come to the right place.
Please comment, like and subscribe if you're interested in more of my ultra-late-game campaign, that may end up ending in utter despair, but that's the challenge of it. Any challenge where success is assured is no challenge at all.
My campaign is an extremely late-game campaign where I am resolved to give no peace to these scum Kingdoms attacking me - seven of the eight have been at war for years, with only Sturgia at a neutral stance. My family of warriors is now large though and with what remaining strength and valor we can must, we stand against the map of Calradia.
Join me on this adventure if you like huge battles, the use of advanced tactical maneuvers and intense Bannerlord gameplay, and subscribe to my channel if you want to follow along. This campaign is very lightly modded:
For most of this "300" series, I use four mods:
Lord Retinue Uptier(Makes the enemy forces stronger, much less peasants and lower ranked troops)
www.nexusmods....
Improved AI Troops(Also makes enemy lords and their armies tougher by giving them a higher daily xp rate. This means you'll routinely face armies with HUGE numbers of the highest tier units, sometimes four or five times the normal amount in vanilla Bannerlord): www.nexusmods....
Death for all: This mod allows you to set the rate at which nobles die more often. I want both a harder challenging late-game but also a more realistic game. If you're cut down with a massive aserai two-handed axe, you shouldn't just be injured 99.9% of the time. It's a very customizable mod so you can just a little more death or set the death rate so high you get several deaths every battle. The number I often like is '10', some deaths but not a massacre of nobles...
www.nexusmods....
I also use the Dismemberment Plus Mod: It's highly customizable and works seamlessly with the new beta(and versions back to 1.28). I thoroughly recommend it if you enjoy carnage!:
steamcommunity...
I've also used Realistic Battle Mod in the past and highly recommend it for Ai and battle realism BUT I find the pace too slow for my taste and the AI is actually rather predictable after a half dozen battles. Still I wanted to put a plug in for it here, it's a GREAT mod and highly configurable. www.nexusmods....
Much of the music and inspiration for this and other videos in the channel are inspired by Epic History TV - probably THE best channel on youtube(and the internet for that matter) covering the Napoleonic wars. With amazing work Epic History TV takes you through the dramatic and incredibly story of Napoleon covering all of his most famous battles. I HIGHLY recommend it.

This is quickly becoming my favourite YT channel
Thanks brother, I appreciate that greatly! I'll do what I can to entertain you fellas!
I really liked the whole battle in the bog fight at the start of the video! Reminds me of the Battle of Bannockburn when Robert the Bruce used this same tactic to halt the enemies’ cavalry and ultimately defeat the English. Really cool stuff man!
Thanks! I love using terrain to our advantage.
This series will always be one of my favorites. I think my top three are "companions in blood" "300" and your new campaign. Thanks for all the great content Bro.
More black lion origins please !!
Appreciate it! It's great to know the older stuff is still appreciated! More companions in blood series(I actually have up to Volume XIV made), may release them one a week until that series ends too.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions Just curious, which series did you enjoy the most so far, or would recommend people to watch the most
@@danielhearnden3776hehe, I have a big long episode coming out soon. I'm finishing up polishing it today. It's going to take a long time for my measly internet to upload, so I won't try and tell you when it'll be available but it's coming.
@@alhasanibrahim4397 The Peasants Revolt was incredibly fun, but THIS campaign, this Aserai campaign, should be the most enjoyable on the channel since it's a culmination of knowledge, mods and gameplay...
Wow you really did it I did not think you would win let alone with such minimal casualties you really are brilliant 👏
Don't know as you guys, but I always click "The like button" first so I will not forget. I have no doubt, it would be brilliant video :)
That's very kind and I appreciate that! I brings more guys to the campaign, and really, for me to do future playthroughs, it needs to be popular, otherwise there is other content I can share.
Amazing battle. It's crazy to see how much tactics can help someone in an impossible power.
Can't wait for the next Aserai Campaign!
Lots more to come in this campaign! Well, not many more "300"s but plenty more of the Aserai campaign. Cheers!
Can’t wait!!
Glad to see this back after a while !
Love the videos! Can't wait for the next Aserai campaign video!
❤ love these videos keep em coming.
Thank you! Will do!
We cook the Persian with this Commander 🔥
Hey man, can you tell me the mods that you are using and the game version you use because when I was finding out about the difference between the versions in game, I have realised that the combat style of the troops change so lmk if you see this comment. Keep it up great content ❤️
I'll do a video of this soon since almost all of the mods I am currently using are stable.
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions🎉🎉🥳🥳
I love watching these videos, but I still can't repeat your results on my own.
Practice and you'll get there, it takes time, my friend! There are guys on the discord channel sharing similar(or better) success stories, and videos to boot. I have a TON of hours playing though AND this is an insanely powerful army, not one that is easily duplicated.
best series, insane slaughter headless
Thank you brother!
❤️
eagrly waiting for Aserai campaign next part 🙃
Workin' on it!
Caleus castle is by far my favorite design for a castle in this game so far, can you do a video with a mid-tier army defending said castle? I tend to have some trouble when outnumbered just 2 to 1.
Remind me here, I've been busy of late, just leave another comment and I'll do this if I can. Maybe a custom battle?
I would like to see you trying to defend the city of Varnovapol in an Epic Siege episode. This city have a very unique layout compare to others, with the entry points from the enemies troops very far one from another
VERY hard city to defend. We assaulted it once but no defenses of it to my memory. No saved games near it either, so it may be a little while...
Dear Tactical,
Do you have a video on how to counter Khuzait armies when playing an infantry ONLY playthrough. (No xbows)
I'm getting my sh!t pushed in. Please help.
Playing Sturgia. Using mostly axemen. Considering introducing Druz Cav to do your shield wall blocker tactic you mention in previous vids.
Khuzait are tough, but there's a reason for the shield wall - it blocks the charge, and axemen make mincemeat of them after that. That said, if you don't have a LOT of skirmishers, this seems like a MASSIVE recipe for aggravation, it's just not reasonable to try horse archers with infantry only...
FOR SURE add cav if you can(or better yet, just 20% archers, but if you insist on infantry, go get some lake rat wreckers...
I had a pretty fun army of a mix of axe throwers and spearmen. I leave axe men in loose with me in command because my throwing is the best with 30% movement banner. All my throwing perks were designated to be a captain of skirmishers. They tactically retreat REALLY quick with the captain bonuses when set to engage. Also I believe my athletics were to be a captain
so many limbs & heads cut epic lol 19:00
Got real gory in this one yes!
about time I'm having lunch 😇
Glad to be part of it.
300 Khan Guards using hit and run tactics can wither 2000 plus armies with ease. I love rushing up to an army then pulling them back right before the infantry engages. Buff your horse riding units, polearms and archery and it’s over
Yep and can't deny that... we had some battles with our Horse archer series against huge forces without a single casualty....
Did you ever fight 250 vs 750 elite enemy T5+ consint 300 mix archers crosbowmans? I would like to watch your 300 K.G.
@@rockybalboa5611 300 KG's? Pretty much crushes everything is used right...
They reformed more times than the T1000
haha great one!
How do you swim your weapon so fast?
Custom polearm, short/fast.
whats a better choice for squares, the vlandian crossbows or forest bandit boss since im pretty sure they got shields as well
Uhh, I like thye forest bandit boss but I've never had more than a half dozen. They are HARD to get! If you somehow have like 30, they should do FINE in a square, but I think I'd still prefer sharpshooters.
Is this Chanel really not monetized?
I am starting the process of monetization now. It is video dependent and also depends on when the video was made. This video I actually recorded a few months ago and is not monetized. Some of the newer episodes are
..
@@HeadlessHorsemanProductionswow hong long you not monitized the channel?
@@patinanda38 The first year or so I didn't monetize. Once I learned that youtube was going to advertise even if I didn't, that changed my mind...
Thank god I get paid to do nothing at work rolling up 1 at work watching letssss mf gooooo
haha, niiice, one of the lucky few...
@HeadlessHorsemanProductions was wondering and also had a question ik ur a busy guy question the fellas wanted me to ask how do u get your javelin troops to throw there javelin in battle it would help save ammo for our archers 🏹
2 minutes in and he didn’t refer to the empire as “southern empire fucks” my utter disappointment 😂
hahaha! I swear enough for most, but I love that I have some fellow-foul mouthed brethen wanting more.
