I am SO GLAD that I'm not the only one who spent countless hours as a kid playing this game, sometimes it feels like I'm 1 of 10 people who've played it
man i love this game, i love the unit looks, the dialog between caesar and vercing and the flow of the game. its so nostalgic seeing this game still get appreciated
I like the intro, as someone studying Roman History you do a good job not glorifying the Romans There were times in when Caesar did get off his horse and fight with the infantry, but it was likely he wasn’t on the front, only being on foot to show his soldiers he wouldn’t run away on horseback if the battle went south. It’s important that he earned the loyalty of his soldiers because they were fighting specifically for him and not Rome Politically though he was corrupt as all hell and was bailed out several times by his armed mob of supporters and rich Allies. In his first term a consul his co-consul Bibulus was so afraid of being murdered on the street by supporters of Caesar he spent the whole term locked in his house after he was assaulted in office.
:) I remembered playing siegius in some random sites :D never played the original so I never realized that there are like more than 10 lvl ( as far as I can remember only the first 10 level was playable on the site I played) :D now I have a reason to play this game again :) idk if you played it but there was a game called icebreaker where you had to free frozen vikings or something , that was a fun game maybe worth a video
Siegius is another game i really liked, also liked the use of a hero unit in it. I did like most of the gimmick levels at the time as well and the stories. The final barbarian lvl with the boars was my favorite level. The Siegius arena game was not for me tho, also if you do not really know what to do you get swarmed and die, and after figuring it out it is too repetitive. And the movements just felt clunky
I have to disagree about the sieges arena part it’s a good game we literally talking about old flash games here if there was for sure combos and were more polished it will be amazing game anyway love your videos 🙏
Oh wow a gamer that doesn't go "rome make empire go brrr". Congratulations mate, you're far more cultured than anyone I've randomly played with any game ever.
So a lot of our conceptions of European history tend to be biased towards Europeans. For example, the idea that Europeans were a dominant, technological powerhouse in the early modern era was far from accurate actually. The Romans really did not have a technological advantage over the northern peoples (Gauls, Germans, Celts, etc). Generally, the Roman's were typically fighting against people groups with more well-trained fighters. This was because they tended to be warrior cultures, in which every male was a professional warrior with quite a bit of combat experience. Yet a warrior culture generally struggles to fight against structured national armies, for a few reasons: 1. Warrior cultures are (usually) highly decentralized. As such, rather than having a united identity, they're actually a highly disparate group of tribes. That, and the environmental conditions which bring about warrior cultures are usually a lot of low-level infighting, pushing the people of said culture to favor masculinity over femininity and expect every male to be armed and ready to fight. This left a lot of the northern peoples as groups of small tribes and villages who were in almost constant conflict between one another. This, coupled again with the decentralization, made uniting against a common enemy very difficult. Usually it took a charismatic leader, such as Vercingetorix. 2. Warrior cultures are undisciplined. By undisciplined, I mean their armies tend to consist of large mobs of men, rather than organized formations. This is because a large united army was an exceedingly rare thing for warrior cultures, and so they did not have systems in place such as a chain of command or large formation drills (besides smaller ones used for inter-tribal warfare). This forces all tactics to be simplistic, either ambush or direct assaults, because there is no command structure in place. This also makes warrior culture armies lack cohesion. Since nothing but the hope of victory particularly has them in place, they break and run fairly easily, worsened again by the lack of command structure. THAT is why the Roman Empire defeated the northern peoples, because they had the advantage of a unified, highly organized and disciplined national army, which often consisted of LESS skilled and WORSE equipped soldiers than their enemies. North American native peoples actually were in the same position. And they also are hit with the same stereotype, that they fought with inferior technology. They absolutely did not, and in fact fought with superior tactics far more well-suited to the environment of frontier America. The disadvantage they faced was the disadvantage against all warrior cultures against a national army (although there are notable exceptions such as the Aztec, Incan, Mayan, and Iroquois empires), with the added disadvantage of a much smaller population after 90% of them were wiped out by disease

Siegus taught me that, when in doubt, spam as many units as you can
Screw the health upgrade, I’m casting two screenwide columns of legionnaires
Spam fire archers! :D
@@matty1094 Woe, projectiles be upon you
Archers are the best,aren't they?
Siegius taught me that spamming Archers in every level works (except that one mission in the Gaul Campaign)
Glorious Morning is the national anthem of flash games.
"Caeser, barbarians are on our horizon."
"Attend to it, centurion."
"Roger. Removing the horizon."
Waterflame also composed the OST of Raze, and about half of Geometry Dash Official levels use his music. What a legend
He also made the music of the game castlestorm, which is a mix of age of war and castle building
Now THIS is quite the blast from the past
Caesar and his schizophrenia vs Vercing's constant teasing
Honestly, I really liked the gimmick levels, it kept the campaign fresh. Also the dialogues were pretty funny
I am SO GLAD that I'm not the only one who spent countless hours as a kid playing this game, sometimes it feels like I'm 1 of 10 people who've played it
This is my faviroute game ever. And this was the first game I've ever played.
Strike Force Heroes Made me love this game
the art style looks so dam good
Ahh seigus…definitely in my top10 flash games of all time. I absolutely loved this game
I loved this game as a kid. THANK YOU for going into my youtube feed. I missed this!
Siegius's OST is just legendary, if it wasn't for Waterflame I doubt we would have such fond memories of these old flash games
THANK YOU, I love Siegius to death and I wish that someday it will make a return
NAH AGE OF WAR??? And I thought I couldnt get any more hyped about your channel after seeing the sonny video
man i love this game, i love the unit looks, the dialog between caesar and vercing and the flow of the game. its so nostalgic seeing this game still get appreciated
I remember this gladiator turn based rpg where you can have multiple fighters and store them, hope you can find it
Sounds like Sands of The Colosseum to me
@@theschwabmob8363 Where i can play this game i have been searching a way to play it but never found it😅
oh crap i remember looking for this when i was young but forgot the name
One thing to note is, the gauls did in fact sack rome first, while it was in it’s infancy, long before caesar and vercingetorix albeit.
thank you so much for this video, ive been searching for this game for years. literally years.
I like the intro, as someone studying Roman History you do a good job not glorifying the Romans

Caesar was still a chad (imo)
YYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!! UA-cam recommended coming in clutch with useful stuff for once
Bro love the content, bringing me back to the good old flash days. Keep it up
Wondering if we will get a episode for the epic battle fantasy series eventually
Eonless being masterofroflness for 1 minute and some seconds in the beginning.
:)
I remembered playing siegius in some random sites :D never played the original so I never realized that there are like more than 10 lvl ( as far as I can remember only the first 10 level was playable on the site I played) :D now I have a reason to play this game again :)
idk if you played it but there was a game called icebreaker where you had to free frozen vikings or something , that was a fun game maybe worth a video
forgot the name of this old gem, thanks for reminding me of it!
I remember when I was like 6 and visited my dad at his police checkpoint station thing, he was playing this game.
Dude I played Sigius Arena all the time I didnt know there was another game
this is the first game you've covered that I haven't heard of, but I have played Raze
Bab bab bar 1:05 nah the Romans are the good guys
One of the most beautiful flash game in my opinion. I replayed it many times, even right now, without upgrades challenge (more than possible btw)
Core memory unlocked
Siegius slaps, another sick video man
Holy smokes that was the name of that 2d team based shooter with the zombie super soldiers, SFH was a blast.
Man that game is and still is a blast 🎉🎉❤
I played vikings campaign in Siegus because i like the design of their axe warriors . Siegus definitely need a remake / sequel !
When is the mud and blood video coming out 😢
For some reason this made me think of Paladog.
YESSSSSSS MY CHILDHOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
I hope you make a Shop Empire review
May I humbly suggest Swords and Sandals as a possible candidate for you to look at?
This game and siegius arena need an official steam release
YES
Siegius is another game i really liked, also liked the use of a hero unit in it. I did like most of the gimmick levels at the time as well and the stories. The final barbarian lvl with the boars was my favorite level.
The Siegius arena game was not for me tho, also if you do not really know what to do you get swarmed and die, and after figuring it out it is too repetitive. And the movements just felt clunky
0:28 i love spreading missinformation about Boaretheus not existing
I hope you make a RAZE review
Ngl, I never heard about the second siegus game
recien me entero que era la precuela del gladiador
You should cover a game called cat vs dog. It was one of my favorites when I was young
i hope raze gets a steam release
Wasn't there a gladiator spin off of this
Have you played the Arrival in Hell game?
Army of Ages when?
Wym caesar was "portrayed" as the good guy? He was def a great guy
I have to disagree about the sieges arena part it’s a good game we literally talking about old flash games here if there was for sure combos and were more polished it will be amazing game anyway love your videos 🙏
Oh wow a gamer that doesn't go "rome make empire go brrr". Congratulations mate, you're far more cultured than anyone I've randomly played with any game ever.
I really didn’t want to play this again
There is remake for the game ?
it got canned sadly
We lost so mutch with the axing of flash.

holding flash games to the same standarts as AAA games when it comes to polish, story and balancing is just plain weird
this game was goated. except the boar campaign. that was ass
