      Yeah, the actual Boshin war was relatively bloodless. So much so that one of the "historical" battles you can fight--the fall Osaka castle--is mostly fictions. The castle was burned but the defenders surrendered it without resistance after the Shogun fled.

      The total casualties (Recorded ones at any rate) were about 13200. These are military casualties, keep in mind. The satsuma rebellion was a direct result of the Boshin war, so including it is a reasonable choice imo, even if it was about 8 years after the boshin war.
      The satsuma rebellion was quite a bit bloodier, with about 36k soldiers killed and wounded in under a year before the leader of the Rebellion was killed.

    What fascinated me the most is that, even a experienced TW player who really know how to build their army super strong, and familiar with the game (since they chose republic) can still struggle with general honours (which is the reason why defection happens). Who could have thought that such an old game can still be this challenging, and you can learn new thing from it (I'm pretty sure there are quite a few people who don't know defection is a thing in shogun 2 and FOTS). Such excellent game tbh.

    (In the timestamp; There's a fan symbol ((representing the embedded Geisha here)) up above the banner of the Tosa daimyo's army).
    Enchanting is really op (alongside the Ishin/Shinsengumi agent bribe option), while the chance is relatively very low for a general to defect if he has high loyalty. It can still happen (quite a bit, actually) if the Geisha is high level.

      @NMvapa Рік тому +16

      Hey, here are some general tips if you're interested:
      - Bigger ships mean more base morale, which is really important. Many ships will route before they burn down/get destroyed. They are also generally better, 1 frigate can destroy a few corvettes.
      - Researching at least explosive rounds will give you the ability to win every battle until mid to late game, as they start fires on wooden ships and the enemy either burns or has to go for repairs.
      - You can manually control a ship if you need some tricky maneuver that the pathing can't manage
      - Generally setting a ship's position and facing is more reliable than giving the attack order
      - If an enemy retreats hit continue and try to sink them/let them burn down, so they don't keep it on the campaign map

    • @Diego000793
      @Diego000793 Рік тому +4

      There's really only 1 tip for naval warfare: get explosive rounds. Later on try to get the armour piercing explosive rounds for an guaranteed win. You can win naval battles 1:4 only because of the ammo type . In the campaign map, bigger ships are great, but a prefer the biggest one that you can recruit in one turn, since the AI can be annoying and is hard to keep track of all of the enemy navies, especially after RD

    • @KimmoKM
      @KimmoKM Рік тому +4

      To add to the other post, "crossing the T"/raking fire (since the guns are placed at sides of the ship, bringing your broadside against enemy bow or stern allows you to put your full firepower to bear while they can't retaliate) is pretty much the most powerful tactic you can do, but it's difficult to perform in practice, especially considering the AI is actually pretty good at facing their broadside against your approaching ships and likes to turtle. However, this behavior is also exploitable: since "turtling" is such a high priority for them, you can use first-person fire mode to fire at enemy ships without them reacting, since the AI doesn't react until you are actually at range, but because shots have some deviation in terms of their length, you can hit perhaps half of your broadside from just beyond the listed max range of the ships. It's extremely cheesy, but then, if you are playing on higher campaign difficulties, I think everything is fair game.

    • @ilari90
      @ilari90 Рік тому +2

      You can cheese the naval battles when attacking, you need to manually shoot, just outside firing range, that way few of your shots hit the enemy, sometimes. You can take out whole fleets with one ship. It's freaking slow and tedious, but yeah, I do it that way.

    Hey guys, probably this comment's a bit late but maybe useful for those who play at higher difficulty/legend. U actually can avoid defection no matter what ur loyalty is either 1 or even -100 (1 is the minimum but it's countable). So every time u are going to attack enemy's army don;t attack with full squad - just move army at the edge of the red circle and select ONLY ur general and attack with only 1 general and make sure army left as aid fot the battle - in this case they never defect. The reason to attack with general not the rest of ur army is that generals have higher move points and after the battle or if enemy fled it can be crutial that u army didn't move too far from settlement and didn't lose many movement points. The other reason is about getting exp for general. Once ur general assaulting - they gain full exp compared to when they are joining army as aid. The biggest disadvantage of this is that u actually can't use night atack but in the late game with strong army the biggest concern is defection of a 5-6 star general with main army. I am a Tsu legendary enjoyer so this tip helped a lot cos without looting that's just a challeng to develop anything and i always had 1 loyalty

    Nice to see you're still uploading and everything.
    I was just randomly reminded of your channel when I was thinking to myself that Scipio was a better general than Hannibal, and then atarted thinking back on why I thought that way.
    I remember you talking about it with us, the chat, back in TW Warhams2 days, before your channel blew up and you got thousands of people in streams. Good times.

    In 0:58 u can actually make your general able to help the seige by selecting your entire army march to the location > spilt army > join > spilt again. ITs an expolite I think
    Since your gerenal has more movement area than your army and if u spilt your army it will spawn your spilted army infront of your old army on where you want the spilted army go.
    so u can do this:
    Move your entire army to the location, then spilt entire army without your gerenl, so your gerenal can move again, select your general to join back the army until your geneal cannot move or join any more, it can spilt around about 2 to 4 times. Then you have to spilt army again but in another way. This time you have to leave a unit behind which spilt all the army except 1 Levy infrantry.
    default Army : 1 Gerenal + 8 Levy Infrantry
    to
    Army A : 1 levy Infrantry + Army B: 1 Gerenal + 7 Levy Infrantry
    u can do it until u run out all the levy infrantry. so in this case I believe u can actually have some levy infrantry as reinforcement too.

    I feel like Satsuma is everyones favourite faction, coz of the fact you can get gold rated accuracy on infantry units and artillery, and decent armour stats, along with foreign veterans and train time. You can literally just print Satsuma Infantry and stomp factions. The AI never seemed to take advantage of this properly. I feel if FotS got a second look at and some minor tweaks is all it needs, it would be the best TW game ever imo. lol.

    • @sup1602
      @sup1602 Рік тому +1

      The tosa are my favourite due to their riflemen just putting out so many shots in such a short time period. No other unit in the game can match their dps. Only crappy thing is the island they start on is dogcrap other than the silk resource that can be used to make a lower unhappyness industry chain building (a minus 1 instead of 3).

  • @Raptor747
    @Raptor747 Рік тому +3

    It literally was because your units weren't on guard mode. I've played a bunch of FOTS, and I can confirm: if you put them on guard mode, they will not end up way out of position because they won't just continue to chase the units you right-clicked on until they've routed (or your unit has routed).

    Artillery share healthpools between 10 men at a time. This means it takes a lot of damage to kill, but they die in groups of 10.

      He tried landing them on the beach, but probably couldn't because it was in the enemy area of influence (The red circle around them), but i wonder if he clicked to disembark army they would run straight into the enemy or not? I mean, the game was giving him the option, so maybe it would work.

    For killing the main commander general you can check the minimap for it. Commander looks as a star shape while others looks as a cavalry triangle. When you kill the commander general star becomes triangle too so you could know you killed the commander.
