Alright, time to load up Medieval II Total War again.
Love your videos man!
Giltine’s chosen at the ready
Yo Pilps, do a Teutonic Experience video sometime
Yeah you’ve had enough buddy. Time to log off of the old TWM2 and maybe do a empire vid for once…
The feels dude 😭
Its nice to see Cataphracts and Khesigs given the Respect they deserve.
Although Mamluks, Knightd Hospitaller, Knights of the Holy Seplcher and Byzantine Flamethowers Flamethrowers being left out is a damn shame.
The Mamluks use oil
I'm making a part 2 right now.
Eh, Cataphracts aren't really elite in the same way that the likes of the White Company or Keshig are.
They are expensive, well trained and deadly... but then you might as well call Knights elite too. And that would make Templars and Teutonic knights pointless.
Varangian Guard are an Elite unit, they can stay.
@@TheNEOverse Actually Cataphracts are considered Elite Units fielded for their use in charging Heavily armored Cavarly and Infantry formations.
And they predate Knights and are thought to have influenced them via ERE Influence with post Roman Western Europe.
@@carlosdionisio5568 That still doesn't make them a distinctly elite group in the same sense as something like the Varangian Guard or etc.
They are basically in the same category as knights, mamluks, samurai- they are elite yes. But then you start wondering why Templars and Teutonic knights are mentioned distinctly when all knights are 'elite'.
Hussars would be more like late renaissance rather than medieval tbh.
Shush
Hungarian Hussars had their golden age in the late medieval era
And the Winged Hussars transcend time
Well Husar tradition thrived in medieval Serbia, although they were not elite units in those times as far as I know, Serbia relied more on heavy cavalry as Elite part of her army
Hussars were originaly light cavalry used to counter turkish raids into hungary
@@Peti-kc6wg Hussars appeared in Hungarian army after Serbian Despotate have fallen under Turks, Many nobles with common people migrated to Hungary after a fall.
Hussars were well suited for warfare against light Turkish Calvary as you said and overtime became a class of Calvary for other European nations.
Thought for sure there was many influences in the creation of Hussars, even in Serbia they might have found origins in some Byzantine light cavalry
Landsknecht and Swiss Guard but no Condottieri?
They had the unprecedented skill of switching sides 8 times before you hit the ground.
I crave to know more
@@MinkioTauro Read up on the Italian Wars 1494-1559. Complete and utter shitshow.
@@TaRAAASHBAGSThe Swiss were just peasants and I only defeated one of the leaders of the Holy Roman Imperial Army by luck 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Aren’t condottieri just mercenary band leaders?
@@Norwegianjesus13 The translations are rough and I'm bad at Italian but one of the spellings means something close to "captains," which still refers to the warbands sometimes, and the other "contract men." Regardless, they're a pretty close Italian equivalent to Landsknecht and were still highly sought after.
Though maybe not as much as the Genoese Crossbowmen.
When I saw Genoese Crowssbowmen I got flashbacks from Medieval 2 Total War. Goddamn Milan
These backstabbing traitors!!! Even the words of the Pope couldn't persuade them not to attack me
Milan and Genoa were two separate entities though, MTW2 just joined them for convenience or gameplay probably.
@@jescruz5465 Oh I know. Stainless Steel turns Milan into Genoa
The fact that the videos deprived of Nökers, Jurchens, and Mamluks makes it incomplete
Mamluks deserve a place on this list.
And Byzantine flamethrowers
Jurchen are an ethnic group, you mean banners?
varangian guard is the only truly elite infantry unit.
Part 2 👀
Hussars and Winged Hussars are two different things
Yes, thank you
Not necessarily ;) this differentiation is used in English because it doesn't have different words for heavy cavalry hussars and light cavalry hussars (while in Polish for instance, winged hussars are called "husaria" and light cavalry hussars are called "huzarzy") but if we're all aware of what one is talking about, I think it's not obligatory even in English to call heavy cavalry hussars "winged hussars".
@@kacperz5683 To be fair, winged hussars aren't even "hussars".
@@Tovalokodonc Because they didnt should be.
@@ByBartinho ????
I came to the comments to read cool historical facts about the units.
All i got was "wHy No *iNsErT uNiT nAmE hEre*"
Big disappoint.
A cataphract was a form of armored heavy cavalry that originated in Persia and was fielded in ancient warfare throughout Eurasia and Northern Africa.
I like how most of them appear in Aoe2 as unique units for various civilizations
Housecarl (or Huskarl in-game) = Goths
Winged Hussars = Poles and Lithuanians
Genoese Crossbowmen = Italians
Knights Templar = only available in scenario editor
Janissary = Turks (also available to Ottomans in aoe3 and aoe4)
Keshig (or Keshik in-game) = Tatars (also available to Chinese in aoe3 and to Mongols in aoe4)
Longbowman = Britons (also available in aoe3 and aoe4)
Swiss Guard = available as a mercenary unit in aoe3
Landsknecht = available as a mercenary unit in aoe3 and to the holy roman empire in aoe4
White Company = can't recall them in aoe2
Cataphract = Byzantines
Druzhina = appears as a researchable technology for the Slavs
Paladins = available to a handful of civs
Gallowglass = didn't appear in aoe2 but the Celts' unique unit: Woad Raider is loose stand-in
Teutonic Knights = Teutons
Samurai = Japanese (also available in aoe3)
Varangian Guard = Vikings under the name Berserk
Winged hussars are a poor representation of hussars

Fun fact: We Serbs had mounted crossbowmen, consisted of mostly lower nobility, although they don't have official name, you can often see them portrayed in Total War games and mods, being called "vlastelinčići", which can be translated as "lower noblemen".
Why didn't they do shock cavalry as most of the other lesser nobles did at the time in other kingdom ? I imagine there is specificity in the Serbian medieval context.
@@cpp3221 partly because it’s cheaper and partly because they were fighting steppe people who used bows from horseback.
You had an elite medieval combat unit, yet you still couldn't take back Kosovo 🤦
@@cpp3221 It all comes down to money and manpower. Serbs had a tradition of light cavalry, being the home of the gusars, later known as hussars. Heavy cavalry on a larger scale was also present at a later date, starting from 1330s onward. After the battle of Kosovo, manpower was a huge problem, but money was not cause of gold and silver mines. Serbian Despots were therefore able to raise and maintain a small but superbly trained and equipped heavy cavalry force that fought with success against the French and Hungarians at Nicopolis, Mongols at Ancara, and Venetians throughout Zeta (later Montenegro).
@@Kobanyai_enjoyer Sadly our Empire collapsed mainly because of internal conflicts and then simply Ottomans used whole situation and destroyed divided remnants of Serbian Empire, and later Serbian Despotate.
It's very sad, but we can't change the past.
There are Serbian medieval fortresses and monasteries in Kosovo to testify our golden era in medieval times.

Hope there's a part 2 featuring the mamlukes at some point. Also wonder if anything from the mughals would fit into the list.
The Mughals are not medieval tho.
@@Emil.Fontanot true, I guess the mughal empire starts right after the end of the medieval period and at the beginning of the European Renaissance era.

Shhhh
Depends on how one defines medieval, and thier predecesors were. The most likely origin of them are serb light cavalry auxiliaries in the hungarian army. Medieval serbia pretty much entierly consisted of shock troops, either lightly or heavily equiped, mounted or dismounted. The word hussar, or serb spelling gusar, means pirate today, but its root, older meaning is more of a bandit, brigand, highwayman, robber etc. Something that light cavalry was doing even as of late as of late as mid 19th century. While mentioning the origin of polish hussars, if you look at thier tactics, they actually weren't proper medieval heavy cavalry, as they neither had that much armour, neither big heavy armoured horses, neither were willing to get stuck in the melee. What they were doing is the hussar, or light lancer tactic of recoiling as soon as possible after the charge, and either look to make passing cuts with sabres or retreat to thier lines for new lances, because a head on charge into a formation that doesn't rout immediately is so violent and forcefull that the lance either breaks, your grip on it breaks, or is impaled sometimes into multiple soldiers, so no reusing of it.
@@svesnimajmun2731 "Depends on how one defines Medieval"
Although there is no official standard definition of when the Medieval period (Middle ages) was, the most common dating is fall of Rome to fall of Constantinople (keep in mind a time period doesn't change in a single year, but if you were to pinpoint years for convenience, these to are the most common).
So to answer your dilemma, one defies Medieval as *476 to 1453* - anything outside that time period is technically not "Medieval" (although can be in "medieval style", eg: If a Medieval armour or battle tactic remains as a standard design or in use post-1453; it is still Medieval technically, but not Medieval per official definition).
The Polish Winged Hussars are definitely post-Medieval period by more than a century, if not two, and although I am not a great expert on how their army worked, I don't assume that they were much Medieval, at least in style par general.
But hussars did originate from the 14th century. Choosing to portray the winged hussars under the term "hussar" is somewhat correct, since they originate from the original Hungarian, but are still a poor representation
Another cool one was the Persian Order of Assassins, most commonly known as the Hashashins. They ran operations that targeted people from East to West. Mamluk Sultans would hire them to kill Crusader Kings such as Edward I. They literally inspired the Faceless Men in Game of thrones! Would also include the Rajput Warriors and Elephant Units, Varangian Guard, Aztec Eagle and Jaguar Soldiers, Hwachas, Cataphracts, Chinese Imperial Guard, and the Seljuk Ghulams

Add Mamluks👀
The Mamluks were among the very few enemies to defeat the Mongols in combat, and they were never conquered. The Mamluk institution had appeared in Islamic civilization in the eighth century as the Caliphs sought to create a military force that was loyal only to the Caliph and not to regional, tribal, or another personal ties. Most Mamluks were of Turkic origin, primarily because the Turks were viewed as better, or at least more natural, warriors than Persians and Arabs. Turks of nomadic origins possessed riding and archery skills from an early age, so that after purchasing them as slaves one only had to refine those skills. The Mamluks therefore became perhaps the most highly trained warriors in the medieval world. They seized power in Egypt in 1250 during the ill-fated Crusade of Louis IX (Saint Louis) and created a Sultanate that dominated Egypt and then Syria until the sixteenth century.

Biased much? no English Longbowmen? Either you completely glossed over England and never heard of them, or you hate England. Never the less the English Longbowman won some crazy battles all on their own. King Henry V conquest of France for example.
PS: I think the video creator failed at 0:45 and meant to call it Welsh Longbowmen, but wales was never a thing and still isn't so back then they would have been called English longbowmen, and even then it wasn't a welsh thing. The idea of wales has only recently became a thing since the 1930s. They would have been called English back then.
I feel like putting peasents with bows (however good they were) into an elite unit tier difficult, although you could argue the same for the genuese, ig mercenary companies are something different. But even with King Henrys conquest they werent the elite units, the knights were, without them the inevitable would have happened far earlier
@@juliusnorr3041 They were though, it was the law that all English men should practise at least two hours per week archery, henceforth they would become elite units. I don't know what you are saying by a knight. A knight is someone who has been made a ser, King Henry V's army was comprised mostly of men at arms and bowmen. If you are talking about cavalry there was very little of it if none in Henry V's campaign exxcept on the French side.
Cavalry was rendered completely useless during the conditions of agincourt with the muddy fields. I would argue that you are more talking about tactics and formations rather than unit strength. Having an English longbowman who can fire at extensive lengths with excellent accuracy due to extensive law enforced training would make him an elite unit.
An elite unit is not the equipment, but the person molded for the tactical, strategic, and military drilled to create an elite fighting unit in itself. A spartan for example had fantastic gear, but it was the training overall that made them effective conqerors of fear, death, and war. An Englishman being put into the role of archery utilising a formidable weapon such as the longbow after practising two hours if not more per week for his entire life would make him a deadly unit to be feared.
Maybe the 'Wells' Longbowmen are that? Though he did misspell them.
@@SCARRIOR If you think the "idea" of Wales appeared in the 1930s, you're deluded and in urgent need of help. The ethnonym Welsh (Cymru) appeared in Cadwallon ap Cadfan in 633. Politically, Wales was unified 1057-1063 by Gruffydd ap Llywelyn. The appearance of the title "Prince of Wales" was in 1216, then bestowed upon Llywelyn Fawr at the Council of Aberdyfi. The title has been used to this day by English and British heirs since the conquest of Wales.
Saying Wales never existed is the same as saying the Principality of Novgorod never existed. Or the Qin, Han, and Ming Empires never existed.
The White Company sounds like a band name lol
