*"I feel like every move and decision I make just creates more problems for me to solve"*
*SPOKEN LIKE A TRUE ROMAN EMPEROR*
Bittersteel being annoyed by “some random tribe, who are these guys” really adds to the authentic Patrician flavor
They are beneath Rome
5 minutes in and this already feels like a save your disaster campaign
Every minute in Western Roman Empire is a disaster save itself
He should probably start doing dosaster saves on this game too
The intro made me think this was a preview to one of Legend's saving your disaster battle video.
@@SockGuys_Italy let him handle his disaster first😂
Western Rome in Attila *IS* a disaster save by default.
"This is just a disgrace" In Total War you say "This is a shameful display" Bitterboi!
SHAMEFUR DISPRAYYYYY
Bro i love it 😂
"They're pretty fffffffff...screwed over" This channel is pure gold
The only mod I consider absolutely essential to Attila is one that changes the fertility issue so that it reaches its minimum fertility sooner, stays there for a certain amount of time, and then recovers part of the fertility rather than permanently staying at minimum fertility.
It's not an issue, it's a feature
@@markus_gold I know it's a feature, but it's also an "issue" in that the player has to adapt their game around it. I'm not saying it's a bug or unintended.
I never use crossbows in Attila except in sieges (really effective on barricades). If you're gonna corner camp i'd recommend using archers and/or (big) onagers and manually shoot flaming or explosive ammo to cheese
Crossbows, especially WRIs one, are slaughter machines in almost every battle
@@markus_gold if the terrain gods of high ground favor you yes. If they can't shoot they're useless
If any ranged unit can’t shoot it’s useless by definition but I’m a hardcore crossbow user on Attila. To each their own though
@@KaptifLaDistillerie if you can't position them properly, then you shouldn't use crossbows
@@markus_gold exactly, and since this happens often I very rarely use them, or only in specialized armies that I use to defend settlements
I remember playing WRE a few years ago in tryhard mode. No abandoning settlements or changing the religion... That was a nightmare, I needed to play all the minor settlements battles and yes 5-6 copy paste battles x turn.
I remember just focusing on settlement battles to wipe out as many units as I could to win in the long run, I won battles were whole barbarian army was against my small garrisons just by blocking streets with testudo and hiding my light cav that had 600-1000 kills. I even joined ERE wars just to eliminate as many factions early game.
I found fighting the same broken defensive town battle so fun draining I deinstalled Attilla and never looked back. Something about this game is just not fun, despite having a lot of interesting mechanics.
@@cc0767 Attila is a good game in general, with many fun mechanics but it has a huge flaw that is what makes it not a fun game.
And that flaw is the AI, as it is super focused on attacking the player making the whole world literally hate you and causing you as a player to be on the defensive constantly with multiple literally cloned battles in a single turn. If that's not bad enough that the AI of other factions focus on making your life miserable, you have to add the rebellions as well adding more misery and suffering to the player.
@@Hollex28 I dont think its actually good, too many mechanics solely made to punish the player, just broken battle mechanics and cav does not feel as good as in rome 2. Also all units from all factions are essentially just a grey blob.
@@Hollex28 try loyal vassals mod - although its not a direct AI improvement but it makes campaign way mroe fun.
Have been watching bitter for 2-3 years now his content is so good
These are so refreshing to watch. I love these alongside your HOI 4 content. Looking forward to your Napoleon runs. Total War with gunpowder line infantry mechanics is so much fun.
3:11 the army facing your garrison was just 12 units of desert spears and some trail mix of guys. You could beat that. I know because i coulda beat that, and im no better than you. You pick a tower, defend it, defensive testudo, hide cavalry. When enemy is commited to battle you charge scout equites into rear. Big victory.
And once again - Love your content! Thank you for taking a look in the Total War Saga!
New subscriber here! I really love the strategic and tactical gameplays of preserving the thresholds and reconquering the Empire's lost turfs once again. ❤❤
I appreciate that! Trying new things is scary and I'm glad for the support
Man i love that your doing content like this
Nice video! I am looking forward too these new Non-Hoi4 videos!
Glad you like them!
Bitt3r iv been subscribed for some time.But I love your “tactical genius” and your different styles compared to other UA-camrs .Your my favourite tactical and strategy UA-camr.You are one of the UA-cam GOATS
About crossbows, they are broken in Attila but not in the good way they just can not shoot.
Love this! Nice work getting “Legend of total war” to fix your campaign battle.
That man is a legend and my idol
It is good to see you play other tactical/strategy games :D
Keep going with the playthrough i really enjoyed it!!
No fk way i just seen Legand of total war play that battle of yours that's awsom
The mod that turns all minor cities in having small walls make this much more survivalable
Walls are overrated, Romans are incredibly strong in siege defence battle
Damn you actually provided after i commented about attila missing from the community tab poll, neat!
make more total war videos man, these are really great and refreshing
You dont need legendoftotalwar, you need Yrridian ! The master of the western empire, magister equitum
Love your content 😊😊😊😊
Ah the legendary total war experience, where it's not the AI that gets smarter and makes the game hard as in more engaging but it just get stupid buffs and makes the game frustrating. Also you probably know but I'd replace the missile units with more cavalry and artillery when you get them.
I was hoping to get more value out of the crossbows, alas....
I would love to see a Shogun 2 / Fall of the Samurai run!
Lol, why does this feels like a disaster save 😂 also love your content!
Would love to see something like this with the Eastern romans
great video, i hope you make more total war videos:)
More videos like these please! Both Rome 2 and Attila.
Cant wait until emperor karl franz to show up! Keep up the good vids!
Crossbows Are not Good to use in open battle, but extremly Good When defending a city
you can just hear his mind become broken and ebb away the more you watch
empire total war would be great next
No bitt3rsteel video is complete without a bitt3steel meltdown.
You should play medieval ! Arguably the best total war!!
17:01 Aurelian would be proud
Rome won against Palmyra before and it can do so again
Very entertaining video and a nice change from the hoi4 content!
Hey, thanks!
Love to see a different game
7:30 For Legend viewer
Love the total war coming back
I wanna see more total war videos. However I want you to play rome 2 as macedon and recreate alexander the great empire :D
You should play the OG Rome
More Attila please
Try and doing the expansion with Belisarius Bittersteel!!
crossbows work better on higher ground than your line of infantry
Play more Total War please
Big fan! So I thought that you should do the 1944 downfall mod for HOI4 as Germany.
I wouldn’t be opposed to a Byzantine run and/ or an Ostrogoths run.
It doesn’t matter what game it is, Italian units will always try their best to sabotage Bittersteels campaign
Peak returns
Holy crap I beg you stop pulling out your cavalry from these engagements, their meele defence goes down to 0, thats why your cav is getting wiped every battle.
The exponentially growing public order debuff of the WRE is hell
It is such a pain
@Steel It sure is. There is a mod that disables the immigration for the WRE. It costs surprisingly little wealth and removes the public order debuff. I usually play the WRE with this mod on, since it's very possible to conquer the entire map before Honorius turns 50. If you hire some young generals and have them fight enough, you can build a solid officer corps and have a fun game (without losing any battles) on any difficulty. I can really recommend modding some campaigns, mods like these are part of how I got over 6000 hours in ATTILA and another 3300 in ROME II.
I am really liking your Atilla videos! About public order though, this is the period when Christianity starts to become better because it doesn't cost food
Rome is gonna need a stronger hammer and a harder anvil.
everyone trashing attila crossbows but nobody talks about cheiroballistra - what do you do with it? :D Sometime its good if you get flanking shots on infantry or snipe enemy general but over all that unit was totally useless in my hands, maybe good bait for cav charge. Id often disband it to get literally anything else. Also - how much did you paid huns for military alliance? :D
BitterSteel is good in HOI however in Total War I could help with that disaster
I its painful but could you also try eastern rome
Eazy bro
Hey the General says you should play more total war AND hoi4 😏
Since you are going pagan anyway, never choose the tech, you lock yourself out of the most important buildings in order to build Christian buildings which you don't want anyway
Yeah, I was baited by the public order like a fool
Pretty much nearly ohmost down fall from the Western Empire but clearly if you try to make allies like with the Germanic barbarians to not declare a war on you like in first turn on legendary diff even i manage some how manage to won the battle on britannia even most people saying "you must abandoning Britannia" but i decided to refuse to leave Britannia even the picts from north were pain in the ass like 4 massive armys comes in when you have 1 general on Britannia holding up the north and building a massive garrison to preventing saxons to invade lungdmum *London* with Building the vileage too Town or either Colonia Settlement with 2 or 3 Garrison building upgrades to defend and then you will focus on the Barbarians in Germania as you can even you will have massive rebellion on Hispania if you manage to win it in battle.
I always abandon the Empire and hold up in Britannia. Seems to work.
Is english your first language?
@@fodetraore6666 I just realized that's all one run-on sentence.
Well well well.... Legend saved your a*se m8
If Hitler was watching this video:
”Get rid of anything you don’t need”
*MUSOLLINI FOUND DEAD*
Dude I swear total war is the assassins creed of strategy and I thought hoi4 was hard
👍👍
Please play more total war (algorithm pleeeeease)
The fact that Auto Resolve gives you better results in Offensive Siege Battles than you can achieve manually is really annoying. Id like to play them but it just doesn’t make sense.
It's mostly because he's playing Legendary difficulty. But autoresolve has always been a crapshoot in balancing for Total War games. It's either so bad that it's completely pointless to ever use unless you have a absurd advantage already, or it's so good that having even a slight advantage can often be better than fighting the battles. If you're all about min-maxing autoresolve is either going to be your go-to mechanic or something you stay the hell away from. If you just like fighting battles and use the campaign map to enable that, then whether it's good or not is superfluous.
Who wants to play same defense over and over? i think autoresolve is exactly for when you have crazy advantage or when you dont really care about outcome :D
I would call out the scum saving but it's FRINKIN LEGENDARY kill it bitta
This guy Spent an hour telling us how to saving the West Rome from deep shit
Yeah crossbows are jank, they have a very low arc unlike bows, using crossbows has been shit since the fire changes of Rome 2.
It is so infuriating
It's called positioning. If you can't position crossbowmen properly I expect you'll likely get fucked over by archers in Empire Total War if you ever played that.
@@Gustav_Kuriga absolutely agree. Roman crossbows, especially Ravenna shooters, are killing machines
@@markus_gold Yep, if they're having issues with archers they should let their shielded infantry soak it up while in the proper formation. They'll just waste the enemy ammo in Attila. Shields are crazy good in that game.
@@Gustav_Kuriga oh no, I agree. I misplayed a few times. But when a single one of the PA k gets blocked, or doesn't have a shot, the rest of them tend to also not shoot. And that's just infuriating
Three whole ass comments for you let’s mf go Bittersteal come on man come on
macedonia empire in europa barbarum
As a western roman empire enthusiast myself I give you my deepest admiration for what you have achieved here.
I have difficulties even on hard mode.
One has never felt true terror, if one hasn't fought against Atilla as the Western Roman Empire.
I found the sollution to the Huns was to pay them to fight other people....
Bingus
Can't believe my eyes. No Futurama meme at the beginning? FINALLY
😂 Bad News everyone, no Futurama meme
This Is Horrible but at least it's not boring
what's up with the colour grading?
I think its HDR
Not that these two videos are bad, but two videos, like an hour and a half of wre atilla content, and there isn’t a single battle with the Huns? Doesn’t that defeat the point a bit?
1v1 me on rome remastered
Im awful but lets go.
6:30 "look up a guide on how to build your settlements"
And there you spelled out what no Attila fanboy will ever admit aloud: this entire campaign is on rails undermining the strategy of the strategic campaign.
The sandbox feeling of past TWs is nearly, if not completely, gone in this game. Everything is hard-gated behind either technology or behind the squalor/public order system, to the point that you need to look up a guide on how to build stuff because God forbid you had any freedom.
"And I'm no longer enjoying myself"
Yeah that makes two of us.
The field battles are top notch tho
PpL wHo ArEnT bOtS aRe AlLoWeD tO liKe
Its an okay video, but the game lets you down, any total war game after MTW2 is shambles, barely any general traits... its a tragedy what has become of TW,
you should try :
Medieval 2 : Total war Kingdoms
With Stainless Steel 6.4 and BYG GRIMS reality mod(you can select it in launcher of stainless steel )
This will provide you with savage content and actually INTERESTING gameplay...
Attila is a joke.....
Best of luck
Each new TW game is worse than the last.
hoi4>>
This is no fun to watch. Cheating AI is no fun... 😢
