That one spartan pikemen unit is the MVP of the entire battle
they singlehandedly killed half an army just about lol XD
Most Valuable Unit
Most Vicious Pike
Spartan Pikemen kill close to 1000 men - slightly winded
Spartan Pikeman : "That siege was a good warm up"
Hundreds of men : *throw themselves onto a pike wall in hopes of desperately taking the city.*
Apollo : My tea is S P I C Y
His tea is S P I C Y !!!
This is SPICYYYYY!!!
@Trevor McNeal Yes
@@michaelselph3530 yes
@@Operator_Stal yes
Attackers: we have you four to two
Spartans and Egyptians: I like those odds
Spartans and Egyptians: Seems like you might stand a chance.
Don’t forget that the pikemen, of Sparta or one of the units killed about a thousand men and survived
Sort of
2 vs 4
Spartans: This is perfectly normal and balance
when you can hold off 200.000 persians with 300 men 2 vs 4 is a walk in the park
@@greko0064 Imagine this is battle between 4 Persian and sparta with athens or another greek
Spartans: two per one of ours? Nah nah nah. Next time. Bring 50 per one of ours.
@@elysiacrispata500 paid in persian gold shut your hole
@@greko0064 you mean when you can hold of 75 000 with 10 000 but its still impressive yes
Apollo: “You’re going to need your snacks and drinks!”
Apollo’s soldiers, staring at enormous sacks of grain: “Great... thanks a lot boss...”
Seth Tatom you frogot the stew. Grain mixed with water.
And heaps of fish that one time it was cheaper than grain lol
At least its not Cereal
I always keep my men well fed with all assortments of food, snacks, and alcohol. Gotta keep your boys healthy and happy in Bannerlord.
@@JustinWedekind well it was easier and cheaper to fish rather then grow animals back then.
Carthage archers "can we go in general?"
General "no just wait"
Carthage archers "how long?"
General *laughs* "wait we had archers?"
LMFAO !!!!1 THATS REALLY WHAT HAPPEN THEY FORGOT ABOUT THE OTHER TROOPS THEY HAD
this happens to my friend all the time. i just forget i have units
Carthage soldiers “wait, we’re helping the Romans?”
I forget I have a couple units and it comes in clutch if I'm losing
Also General ‘’ alright time to check the survivors and casualties wait we had also cavalry?!
The title: CAN SPARTANS HOLD AGAINST OVERWHELMING ODDS!
Egypt: Am I a joke to you?
egypt played it better than the spartans tbh even though they got overrun first the side they were defending was more difficult but they both did really well, the attackers messed up by not commiting to the fight
@@ScreamingManiac honestly the spartan user wasnt a good leader, they are meant to hold choke points and he was leaving the elite in the wide open
of coursse sparta can hold any faction even the strongest faction(rome) cant deal with the spartans
They did their best , but the odds were against them
@@Asch31 yep
Apollo: they are not dumb, they’re...
Me: hmm yes they are.
@JoeRingo118 more like defensively bad attackers
Apollo at the start: Can the defenders hold this city?
Apollo 10 minutes into the game: Can the attackers inflict any meaningful damage at all?
Spartans don't die. They go to hell and regroup.
I want to like this but it’s at 69 likes.
That's from the British paras, or American marines both started using it at the same time.
Just Some Guy without a Mustache almost every vid I watch with these youtubers your in the comments
Master chief noises intensify
😂 lol
I can just imagine you facepalming the shit out of your face during the whole battle
"Sir they outnumber us 2 to 1"
Sparten pikemen:"not for long"
lol yea that single pikeman took out like 6 to 7 units of soldiers XD
"Then it is an even fight"
In the end Carthage was like: "Yes! We made it guys! We successfully protected the archers!"
I like to imagine the Carthage player was roleplaying as them and he didn't help Rome on purpose
Title: Can the Spartans hold against overwhelming odds.
Everyone: Yes
I can gaurentee that no-one is supporting the attackers lol
Tom Hibberd STOP ASSUMING I WAS SUPPORTING THE ATTACKERS
Tom Hibberd lol yeah
Dumber the the ai almost like a forfit
😂😂
Lol yeah
Was waiting for banner lord but this is great too
NO PAIN NO GRAIN

"they don't have enough ammo to kill everyone!" The ww1 generals would agree with you :)
Apollo in bannerlord : is rich
Random soldier: my lord, you win many tournaments
Apollo:yes I do
Soldier:so you win much money
Apollo:yes that makes sense
Soldier: enough for three workshops
Apollo: you mean some 45K gold
Soldier: yes then... WHY ARE WE STILL EATING GRAIN 4 TIMES A DAY?
No grain, no gain
I always choose the Spartan perk every playthrough of Bannerlord I do
34:40 really smart move from the spartans, they put others units in front of the pikes so the pretorians skirmish them intead of the pikes.
Last time I was this early Apollo got friend zoned
Cause Why Not lol
He should've went for a brunette instead of a blonde
FragonDragon
Oof, are brunettes better than blondes?
How do you get out of the friend zone?
Bat Man By not trying. Just be cool about it, be okay with the fact that a girl wants to be your friend and not your partner.

spartan 1: "well shit carol, i think we followed the wrong army"
spartan 2: "yeah, i think so too man"
good comment.

Brother
I can’t believe Carthage actually moved up his archers.
Finally !!! he is uploading total war again, i have missed that game
Spartans!! Prepare for glory!!! I was going for sparta the whole time but I didn't think they would actually pull it off lol
The amount of times he criticized the attackers is just embarrassing for the attackers
13 years ago yes
But all of that was on point.
@@ddd-sx7pw I agree 100 percent
The attackers embarrassed themself by playing like this tho.... 🤦🤷
They could have had one entire army be archers and slaughtered. They could have easily won from so many different direction and strats but they chose to sit there and throw small groups of men onto pikes one after another. That was some of the worst play I have seen on this channel. NOobs
Thank the heavens I was missing your siege battles!!!!
Especially the commentary.
Edit: spelling
Apollo: “A little fighting here and there but nothing to intense”
The few thousand men holding the horde:🗿
So we got two amazing lets play and now we get a tournament. Best quarantine yet
I scanned and may of missed someone commenting about this but Apollo, Sparta changed the archer unit on the wall once, that's why that so called one unit had so much ammo xD First one he took off had around 250 kills or something like that, then he switched it with another one why it had around 100 something when you looked at it again after a while.
i missed this graphics, makes me wanna install it again
Apollo: “I think their gonna get back up, come on get up.. noo their dead, rest in piece”
Sad that there is no one playing something persian like
They always limit archers which is the parthians strength in siege so its not ideal faction for multi player. And their heavy cataphrach is almost of no use in mass, for siege.
@@alimohammad1934 devs fault
They should fix this
Persian army is one of the most organized armies
Nikjooyan Family what how is it their fault that players have rules in their games
Boy oh boy one Cataphract unit could've won that for them
@بردیا قنبرزاده that was only one battle lmao. All the other times Rome kicked you persians. Damn even little city states beat you Persians. Even the lesser Greeks, the macedonians survived you guys for ages to build a massive army and gave it to a kid that later became Great Alexander
Thought I was bannerlord but as long as its pixelated apollo it's still good
yeah it was a GREAT batlle haha we tought we lost! XD
Yep I thought we Had Won Only to see we didnt take point.
I feel dumb looking back on it that none of us looked at the timer
All you had to do was throw your units into the fight and you would have won quick.
I doubt you thought you lost lol they weren’t even close to breaking through in time.
@@recien2254 and they had sooo many units
I love Bannerlord but I’m so happy you’re also uploading Total War again
Apollo: it’s okay if the archers kill a couple hundred of your men just throw more men at them😂
*Soviet* *Detected*
*Big Brain:* Tactical bottle neck
@@kimjong-un9506 Stalin: *Proud*
Imagine being a Carthaginian mercenary archer there. You would be payed so much money just to stand in a desert for 51 minutes and then go into battle when you have a very small chance to be killed, most chilled battle of their lives
Yes iin always defend with Sparta
It makes me daunting to see the attackers being too timid with their attack, they should push infantry masses to the Egyptian chokepoint to take the arrow towers while having archers silencing the pikemen, then the defenders skirmishers have to pick and choose to kill the infrany taking the arrow towers or the archers raining down on the pikemen.... Instead the attackers are just sending troops piecemeal and let the defenders chew them up bit by bit, that just gives the defenders time and the arrow towers continue to shoot down the attackers.....
For the Roman and Carthage side, the Carthaginan archers are just sitting there and let the praetorians rush to the front of Spartan pikes to kill themselves, also a waste of the roman javelinmen who shoot low tier units spears of Sparta at the beginning (playing into the game of defenders using crap units to waste your ammo), just send in legionaries (not pratetorians) who easily break them without a single shot fired.
Clearly inexperienced attackers.....Anyway they can learn from this battle. Good game.
Lol. Yep i was the Seleucids and alot of the attackers have like 20 hours. Also i went afk for a long time
@@crypticr6938 How many hours you got now?
@@jaredgarbo3679 probably 100
I can feel his frustration threw the screen...
Pixie if the Spartans had lost you should have called the battle
The battle of 300 and the pike unit was the 300b
@22:23 that just broke my heart holy shit.
This looks like a case of 6 friends that decided to challenge the better players in their group to do a 2v4. The attackers are making a ton of easy mistakes - though I know from experience that its a lot harder to play perfectly than it is to critique with a bird's eye view.
Anyone else notice the Roman's used the walking through the enemy cheese at the beginning of the battle? That's how they got to the inner walls so fast
I love how you can hear Apollo having an anyurisem during the last 5 minutes.
If you jump 30 seconds to every time he says "get in there" to avoid the spam, you actually jump the full video
There is something so awesome about the line. The Spartans are here they’re ready to defend.
yes I've been waiting for another one of these
Me too
@@mauricemardini3026 its been way to long
The spartan dude was actually really good. Most of the Roman advancing forces were exhausted at a 20 minut mark from all that running. That’s actually a really smart play
"They hold on to their ammo! "
Slingers : 139 kills
Those last 5 minutes were the longest of my fricking life lmao
Finally we have some total war again! Thumbs up! 👍
The attacking army couldn’t organise chips at a fish and chip shop
Thank god I missed your siege battles!
This will go down as the last stand of Sparta and Egypt against a tear any force
Attacking player's: Let me send more reinforcement and CHARGE the into the Spartan pikemen
Good to see you back on Rome 2. Started watching you for this! But your content is lit!!
Spartans should have used a door tactic with their first wave of defenders.
LoL GG to Cor And Argamus. Good Defense. It was a fun game
Sword band got absolutely sacrificed in the beginning
The attacker's play reminds me of an American Civil War Battle - Fredericksburg. Union General Burnside idiotically only sent small groups of soldiers at a time to attack uphill at the Confederacy. That reminds me of how these attackers played. If you are going to throw your troops right at the enemy, at least throw them all at once in a human wave tactic. Don't send small groups to get slaughtered, let the defenders regroup, then repeat until your whole army is dead...
Fredericksburg was one of the most infamous Union defeats of the war.
Great moment in the movie Gettysburg when, after having just repulsed Pickett's charge, the Federal troops keep shouting "Fredericksburg! Fredericksburg! Fredericksburg!" at the shattered remnants of Confederate attack force.
Yeah, Rome 2 !
That spot you were looking at while talking about pikemen was the opportune moment to have used one. Having that wall with slingers wouldve slaughtered the enemy archers being baited by pikes. And the hill helps for shielding the pikes
Ahhh come on apollo I thought your going to apload mount blade
Apollo: Rome and Carthage are allies! me: *gaming Music Stops*
Where was gondor 😂😂🤣
I honestly liked when Apollo would commentary over his own game play. Because he would sound more passionate, and he would know exactly what was going on. Also it would teach me a lot because it’s like exact game play
Only around 6-13 months till Covid-19 is over
They are opening stuff in about 10 days.
@@emptybruh because economy will go nuts if they didn't
King_Daily How could You tell That Covid-19 Will end In 6-13 Months It Depends on If the Government Fund WHO And Trump cancel The Funding Because he Said its Unnesesecary Heck What if we Discovered Theres No cure or Vaccines And The UK's Putting a Dick Move by Using Natural Immunity Which could Kill millions By waiting To see If Someone Got Natural Immunity
@@ihatemyselfxd7252 there is no current cure for viruses, herd immunity is totally out of question when a small fraction of the current global population would survive. This estimate was made by the CDC, as infections rates hit the curve, a realistic curve, a virus cannot grow exponentially forever. If it did more than 2 billion people would've been infected. There is a vaccination currently being made, taking around 18 months, only then will the virus mortality and infections go down. It is very unlikely it would be eradicated like smallpox, and I understand that the UK is doing a stupid decision, and so is Trump. It is going continue to spread, but it's going to end at some point, wether a vaccine is made and is given globally, or it hits the top of the curve and infection rates go down the same way it went up.
Sorry if that was kind of boring, I was trying to show accurate information and not cause any confusion
I've been missing this game from your channel for a while, I just love the theme of it and the play style. Good thing you started to post one again. More power and stay safe Apollo.
Hey 2 mins! I love this series
I used to watch your channel awhile back, like every single day for hours. Really missed you changed, it's like deja Vu watching you again! I remember when you had like 23k subscribers, now look at you!
Will you do more Gear and tactics? I hope so.
Hate that game
"Give them nothing, but take from them everything!"
Yes rome 2 again!!
Apollo I bought Roma two because your video made me see how good the game is and the game is amazing
if only the attackers used their arty to destroy the Towers in the upper city and the defenders flaming balls. Both cases would have won the battle for each team.
Never before have I heard Apollo so agitated by player stupidity as in the closing fourth of this video. :)
Yassssss total war:rome yessss.
I think Apollo is wishing Bannerlord sieges worked like Rome 2 sieges
If I am the Roman player, I'm pissed.
Apollo: forty minutes go by fast
Me in school and forty minutes before lunch: ahhhhhhh
I love bannerlord but it’s so nice to see Apollo back in his element of total war
Me: questions why troops are randomly dieing in the beginning
Random arrows: allow us to introduce ourselves
Sparta! YES!!!
WOW o.O This was absolutely down to the wire. Amazing! Reminded me of that one controversal tournament battle between the Hungry Wolves and Corby Fist Baiter. When the battle started I was rooting for the defenders, you know always on the underdogs' side. Then when the Romans pushed the first line of the Spartan defense it looked like they cheesed through their lines. When I saw that I was like "Damn they gotta get kicked in the butt for that!" Then all those painful mistakes from the attackers versus the perfectly organized defense by the Egyptians and Spartans. They absolutely deserved this victory. Only mistake on the defending side I would say was not setting up the Spartan general with their backs to the wall on the capture point at the end. But thankfully the attackers didn't take advantage of that chance. I would've screamed at my monitor if they did... which at 01:00 AM wouldn't have turned out great for the neighbors xD
All in all one of the most adrenaline pumping battles on your channel. Keep up the good work!
The Spartans are over-rated historically. Their military was professional in comparison to other militaries in Greece, but when they came up against other professionalized forces, they weren't terribly effective. Certainly not supermen.
There starter goes weren't very imaginative, the Romans who's soldiers were of lower quality than standard Greek, managed to defeat them without too much difgiculty
No one can break a pike phalanx head on. Doesn't matter who you are. melee units that is and Pike vs pike is is a bit "how ya goin'".
The spartans are not overrated. For ~400 years (800-373BC) they dominated the greek peninsula and they only lost small skimirshes(as expected ,they were sending their helots to fight them) and naval battles. 400 years of battle domination by using the same tactic "othismos"(meaning push) in the phalanx formation sure creates a big story to tell about their determination,ferocity and military skill.You cant deny that spartans were the first professional soldiers. As much as I dont like to bring this argument,for the sake of it I will just say that Hitler got inspired by the harsh traiining the spartans were undergoing and chose to train his infantry divisions under the same principle,which proved superior against the less trained soldiers from the Allies.We should also take into consideration that the spartans at their height could only field 10 thousand homioi hoplites. Romans on the other hand,could field 10 times that number at least.When romans came,sparta was a shadow of its former self.They couldnt even field more than 1000 hoplites by that point.Rome revolutionazed the warfare by being technologically,logistically and militarally superior to the unorganized and static Sparta,which population was declining day by day
@@arthasmenethil7208 You missed the point entirely. The Spartans were the only professional force in Greece until the emergence of the Macedonians. Consequently, their performance was better against non-professional forces *as I specifically said*. (Though they weren't even close to the first really professional forces in history, which were likely the Assyrians). Even so, Spartan forces surrendered during the Peleponnesian War (late 400s BCE), and after the victory over Athens could not sustain hegemonic power over Greece, even against cities like Thebes. By the time the Romans were a presence in Greece, Sparta was nothing more than a tourist attraction.
I would suggest that your knowledge or understanding of Sparta is based largely on the myths my original post described. Read some real history. I suggest starting with Thucydides.
I’m happy the defenders won
They just deserved it. Great video 👍👍
It is my birthday today I know people are going to see this
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
May God bless you with several sacks of grain.
Happy birthday
Gaby Mendoza I opened my mothers womb on this day as well
Oh happy birthday bro ❤
Happy birthday. I've made some grain cake special for you.
LMAO I'm crying just finished the video imagine getting defeated by a smaller army :D
Honestly, how could you loose in a 4v2 if you’re on team with 4 players
Well, to be fair, 3v2, Carthage didn't fight.
@@paracovo lol true
I love this game I have been watching your videos from six years ago with the spartan campaign and I’m about to watch the Athens one. Keep it up apollo! I love the content.
I waited for banner lord for like everytime :(
Nobody:

Bannerlord!
Matas Baliukonis bro let him upload other shit as well stop being a douche
You can tell the skill gap based on the hesitation from the attackers. Fun to watch though
Me watching apollo's videos: apollo when he wins a battle: YESS! Me: Shuusshh My parents think im doing my homework!
Oh Thank god! Finally Rome 2. Thanks Apollo... :)
