      He definitely messed up with that lancer sacrifice in the north, and I think he could have been more aggressive with his landwehr and center. However his square formations and his micro throughout was mostly on point. 23:39 was brutal--I don't know if he intended for that volley before the melee, but if it was intentional it was beautifully done and spaced.

    • @RyanTheHero3
      @RyanTheHero3 5 років тому +3

      Nathaniel Dance He probably should’ve distracted the player with a Landwehr charge then moved his cav down behind the units for a flanking attack, or a rear attack while his main force moved forward and caught them when they least expected it. Rather than just trying to charge into a large number of French.

    Hey pixi. I have been thinking about a lot of people wanting more third age, i understand that it can gwt dull after all the years and that the replays are so frustrating when they crash. I was just thinking that maybe you should just do a campaign. I know they always start off really popular, and end up dulling out, however i think if you kept it to like 1 upload every week or every other week you wouldnt see the drop in views that you would sending them out every other day. Just some food for the thought. Either way you keep doing you man. Been watching for years and dont plan on going anywhere.

    I play Total War: Napoleon I was playing against a friend. We had our units on ultra. I chose to go on the defensive and hold my ground. Holding my right flank was 3 units of National Guard. Little did I know my friend got wise and launched his most elite infantry units against me. When I finally noticed I had just enough time to bring up my light dragoons and dismount. With 3 units of National Guard and 1 units of light dragoons. My boys held and I was able to hold the flank. Not 1 unit retreated.

    @ioantt1754 6 років тому

    Yes Apollo, Jäger should technically have better range than the French skirmishes as the Jäger were armed with rifles similar to those of the British green jackets and so could out range the French. I believe Napoleon himself disdained the use of rifles in his armies because of the slower reload time and also because often the French tactics involved getting as close as possible for a musket volley and then charging into melee and thus the increase in range and accuracy didn’t appeal to his battle doctrine.

    At 20.34 you screamed "for the Kaiser!" To stop the Prussian Lancers from breaking.
    Thats Historical incorrect!!!!!
    At this Time, Prussia was a Kingdom ruled by King = König Friedrich-Wilhelm III.
    In 1879, the former Prussian King Friedrich-Wilhelm IV. was declared as Emperor = Kaiser Wilhelm I.
    So you see:
    English - German
    King = König
    Emperor = Kaiser

      Fun fact: The movie was filmed in The Soviet Union (Ukraine IIRC), and all the regular soldiers you see in the film are actually Red Army soldiers. All of them are real, too, so every one person you see in the huge battle scenes is actually a real actor! Perhaps to be expected in 1970 but still mind-boggling. They went as far as to accurately reconstruct some of the locations (buildings etc.) of the battle for the film in Ukraine.

    What a great game. I soooo want an empire 2, timeline lik 1700-1850.... with modern graphics, AI, unit pathfinding, and general traits etc. And the warhammer total war regiments of renown system could be used for named units like the Royal Scots Greys or the Towarcyz. But the unit pathfinding is just SOOO bad, that needs love the most.
    I just love that terrain was so important in napoleon and empire, more so than any other TW game, warhammer/rome 2 just attached some arbitrary stat bonuses to swamp and trees, but in these games you had to constantly check your lines of fire and establish defilade/enfilade.

    France really misplayed his left flank if he just committed the young guard he would've kept the artillery and routed the weaker Prussian units. And his skirmishers being outranged should've made him either push up or fall back. Prussia did great but could've ended it sooner by pushing up more.
