What is your favorite nation to learn about during the Napoleonic Wars?
I feel like the Portuguese go under the radar but this was a fascinating period of their history
@@angrysammich5762 yeah true!
kingdom of italy for the simple fact their viceroy is literally napoleon's lookalike and can even be as competent as him
Biggest fan bro 💜💖 from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
D zou know how to get the vanilla mod for napoleon tota war
"I don't know why the French are retreating. I don't know why they're falling back" - Pixelated Apollo, moments before disaster during the Battle of Austerlitz.
Awesome name 😂😂😂
Lol
It was an outstanding battle. Napoleon completely dismantled the enemy’s force and forced the enemy to commit
Modders take notes! This deployment phase was awesome to watch! The probing, scouting, reading the opponents, it’s really cool to see the, before the battle, part of the fight! More maps where we mobilize on the field please!
this is why I love this mod so much!
@@PixelatedApollo1 How is the mod called?
@@treedriller Napoleonic Total War 3
@@RubCal96 But these battle maps of NTW3, are for either singleplayer battles and online right? You don't get these type of maps or scenario's in singleplayer campaigns right?
@@jonahokpala5720 You don't get them in singleplayer yes. The AI is terrible at playing with the overhauled battle mechanics so you'll end up with battles where you number 1,200 while they number 3000. You lose 300 and they lose 2950 or something close to that
The French players knew exactly what they were doing from the start, you could see they were sucking the Russian players in, making them think they were playing defensive!
Good to see competent players, a real rarity! That's why I enjoy watching Apollo when he plays himself, he doesn't use such confusing, bewildering, and therefore annoying tactics as most seem to do! No waste, no stupidity, and good to watch!
You call that outflanking, Napoleon called that a central position. It’s hard to explain clearly but surprisingly he loved being in the middle of coalition forces to destroy them army after army by fast moving before the coalition could regroup in one point.
All the 1814 campaign of France was rulled by this tactic and he almost won all the battles like this even at 1vs5 and with conscripts troops of young men: the Marie-Louise, just mâle researches it’s amazing !
The technical term is _interior lines_ - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interior_lines - and when you get down to it it's really just basic principles of geometry. Great when you can pull it off but in itself no guarantee of victory, as for example the Austrians found out the hard way at Königgrätz in 1866.
@@broadbandislife In french art of war we call that "position centrale". And that's not the same concept as interior lines as the "position centrale" is mean to be an agressive way of defence by placing yourself between ennemy forces only to crush each wings separatly
@@nostrackve1512 Also "interior lines" implied that you move forces between fronts to maximize efficiency. Don't think that would work against well coordinated enemy.
@@賴志偉-d7h that’s why Napoleon placed such a emphasis on quick forced marches. He moved faster than tonight possible so it was impossible for the enemy to be coordinated. They never expected him to be where he was when he was. The central position strategy is only supremely effective when moving at extreme speed and with stealth movement. Which Napoleon was a master at, and is why he won 90% of the time he was on the field.
The Russians might have won had they not thrown away most of their cavalry in a scouting offensive. The French won by their cavalry, and there was no opposition to keep Naploleon's infantry from pressing forward.
“When I think the Russians are done, there’s just so many more.” That seems to be the general story when it comes to fighting against Russia, without mentioning winter of course.
Depends on the era for the most part.
True. Does depend on the era.
@@thedon9247 Ukraine 2022
@@RoyalDog214 ?
Russian casualties aren't even known. They've suffered less casualties than the Ukrainians have, that's the only thing that's certain.
@@thedon9247 P sure the literally only source claiming *that* is Russia and their credibility deficit is patent enough.
If the French damages the capture points enough, the Russians can accidently destroy the capture point trying to use their artillery on the French troops occupying the town.
That’s really smart
While I’ve been playing Warhammer 3 lately (I definitely recommend it, but people have complained about the new siege mechanics that I personally like) it’s always good to watch some Napoleon battles. Sometimes Warhammer is just too fast paced and I want a slower battle with less flashy magic.
You say siege mechanics, there is basically no new mechanic, sieges are still shit
@@MrThefoxyone the supply system is definitely something that falls under “new mechanic” whether you like it or not. The siege maps are also infinitely better than the last two games
This right there

- Oh they don't wanna fight? okay... fallback men
- Look sir! they came for us!
- Oh so they wanna fight? CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGE!!!!
Looks like this map is centered on the town of Maloyaroslavets. The Battle of Maloyaroslavets was fought during the French retreat from Moscow, and while it was a tactical victory for the French (and Italian) forces, the position of Kutuzov's Russian army further south and a Cossack surprise attack which Napoleon only narrowly escaped convinced the Emperor that the Grande Armee was too weak to take this southern route out of Russia. This meant they had to retreat along the road to Smolensk, and because this was the way they had advanced towards Moscow, the land was almost completely stripped of supplies by French foraging and Russian scorched earth tactics. So on the strategic level the battle ultimately played a significant role in starving the Grande Armee, as it had to retreat through a region that could no longer support it.
btw the French grenadiers were the real MVPs of this battle. they were right there leading most of the bayonet charges that broke huge portions of the Russian line. Those madmen really earned their pay!
I think the French intentionally brought the HP of the church down in case they would have to fall back they could force the Russians to accidentally fire the last shot that brings it down.
what really bothers me with NTW3 is insane length of battle ( and I usually love long battles ) BUT when i saw 2 groups of soldiers, around 266 units per group, shooting each other from around 50m and with every volley there was maybe 1-2 casualties, I just quit the mod, lif is way to short for that xD and the cav feels almost useless/broken, I was playing camping
its great, far more tactical than normal ntw
The beauty of the mod is that its far more realistic than the vanilla. Longer battles, more thoughtful tactics and strategies
The inaccuracy even at almost point blank range is insane you just get units good in melee combat and win easily. Even the light infantry have shocking aim.
if you ever played the warband mod for napoleonic wars, you will see how it's very hard to aim the damned things even at very close range.
yeah and cavalry is charging at crawling speed
well of course, light infantry's main benefit is mobility. they're a bit more accurate than line infantry but you can't really use them as snipers
@@robowisanveithasung6022 Their superior range is what i find to be most helpfull from them
@@Raadpensionaris i will admit, i do like using light infantry for better range than line infantry.
“Everytime I think the Russians are done, there’s just so many more.”
I don’t think you’re the first to say that.
I've been watching Apollo now since 2016 or 2015 now I think. really fun videos watch them every week Apollo, good memories and im happy entertaining videos are still pouring out.
I’m Polish and we actually mention Napoleon in our national
Anthem
Bonaparte has showed us the ways to victory. Or something similar to that
For the many years of watching, the confusion of the pronunciation of Chasseur will never get old.
Always love the Napoleonic videos! Looks so amazing and the commentary is always great!
"The French are quite upset about this!! We have chasseurs cheval....
chasseur a cheval erhhh. or.. shh yeah..
Charging in!"

The Words Are Hard Man
NTW3 is back! Always my favourite content of yours Apollo. What a treat!
I am genius. I never forget I am, God save France!
TOTAL WAR NAPOLEON IS MY FAVORITE TOTAL WAT GAME!! ADD DARTHMOF AND IT IS MY FAVORITE GANE EVER I NEED A LONG VIDEOESAAY TO TELL ME ABOUT IT MORE!!!!!
That's was legit one of your best,I enjoy the whole 50 minutes,but the amount of troop dying while being point blanked-surround L shape in the last part of the video is quite strange,there should be hundreds dying each volley but it looks like they aren't hitting anyone
It's pretty accurate. Prussian forces of the time did an accuracy test, and from around 200 Meters, only 3 shots missed the target. In a battle test about 3 shots hit a target. It follows the pattern found in ww1 that most soldiers weren't actually willing to shoot at the enemy and not with deadly aim
A guy by the name of Lindybeige made a video discussing this topic. Think it’s titled “why soldiers stand around in combat” or something like that
@@1963felonee Pretty sure that second one was from WW2 and it's _highly_ disputed. Anyways smoothbre musket accuracy was shit and then some - I've read of a 1700s Swedish experiment that found a good shot had *maybe* 50/50 odds of hitting a man-sized target at hundred paces in firing-range conditions - and line infantry mostly just pointed theirs in the general direction of the enemy anyway; given the amount of smoke in the air after a few volleys it's not like you were going to much even see them. Related: they weren't exactly trained for marksmanship but rather alacrity of the reload drill, formation maneuvering and steadiness under fire.
One British senior officer in the early 1800s - a veteran of the Napoleonic Wars - commented something to the effect that he was willing to stake a very considerable sum of money on the claim that no man had ever died of a musket shot deliberately aimed at him from like 200m.
And *then* you had plain human error thrown to the mix. Eg. when the Union took inventory of equipement salvaged from the Gettysburg battlefield in 1863 (by which time the standard infantry weapon was a caplock Minié rifle-musket, an inherently more accurate design than the old smoothbores) they found out a rather substantial portion of the rifles had in the heat of combat been loaded so wrong they couldn't fire, ie. bullet before powder etc. In several cases repeatedly, implying the soldier had not even registered his gun hadn't discharged and simply repeated the reload sequence with the rest of his unit.
And some had the ramrods blithely forgotten in their barrels to boot - this is incidentally something modern re-enactors are specifically taught to check for as it's apparently a surprisingly easy error to make and causes all *kinds* of safety hazards.
the mod scales the distances 1:3 and the unit sizes 1:6
@@jirrocapillo8767 what are these numbers? I don't understand
The cav engagements are pretty realistic in terms of charge and retreat ;o I liked it
That's why it was said: "L'arme au bras grenadiers, la vieille garde ne se bat qu'à la baïonnette !" No one could keep their cool in a mele fight with the old guard.
The third girl i fell in love to just rejected me 😃
always the fourth
Rip bozo
thats rough hombre
Having a Rick and morty profile pic might have something to do with it :/
Man one of the best UA-camrs on the platform today
Thanks man!
Russia could have turned this battle round with that well placed artilery across the river, but they weren't bold enough. They should have posted it really close to the waterline and support it with infantry and every horseman available. The cannister shot would have decimated that whole french and polish line. Hell, even charge the infantry in front of your guns and shoot, they just needed to hold for some shots until 1 or 2 units of infantry braeke, then aim your artillery with cannister shot at the back lines and fully charge your line, placing the left-over escort infantry to hold the back lines in the left.
@Pixelated Apollo - do you have 2 or 3 people/players or you tubers thqt you regularly get together with and share videos and play with? The reason Im asking is Id like a link to them and have a trifecta of the same playback from different angles
14:38 "Everytime I think the Russians are done, there's just so many more!"
I think there was also this other guy who encountered a similar problem
As a French I’m sure that this battle has happened
The power of the baguette is strong with that one
Always nice to see u trying to pronounce "chasseur a cheval" u've gotten better at it through the years.
U should just pronounce the "ss" as an S sound and not a "sh" sound.
My mrs overheard your video as i was watching your video and thought i was watching the news and thought all europe was at war with russia and started panicing ha! aah god bless the meek minded.
LETS GO I LOVE THESE VIDEOS!!!
YES NTW3 MORE MORE MORE NTW3
Thank you for the content. The Russians were badly led. More cohesive strategy and focus on deploying units, and less attention to gen sniping may have helped.
By far one of my favorite ntw battles you’ve covered
French team totally outclassed their opponents eeessshhh!
Man those russian tactics suck!
EDIT : Oh sorry wrong video!
Apollo to start my day….YESSIR!
"Why the Russians are being so agressive"ah yes
US bombing afghanistan/libya/serbia/syria/africa/iraq = i sleep
Russia bombing ukraine = no shit
@@haikalhadzik7744 afghanistan/libya/serbia/syria/africa/iraq: actively sending terrorists and criminals to the US to do harm
ukraine : wants to join NATO
Mates both countries are fuking evil one's crimes do not excuse the other. Also Russia has a history of having good offensives.
Ukraine will be the next so called terrorists fighting back against their oppressors
@@haikalhadzik7744 Lets hope you aren't on YT in a Russian convoy at the moment. The world doesn't hate Russia it hates Putin, he's losing power and has to kill people including his own to keep it. No fun to be you.
By 25 mins in, if I was Russia I would have called off the attack and regrouped elsewhere. The battle would have been half its length!
NTW3 Check, 50min plus battle, where are my snacks and drinks?! :D
"Kind of a good move by the Russians."
not exactly a big fan if NTW3 but does France have a melee bonus or what? Russia forces fall like card decks in melee. How'd they lose so fast?
It could’ve been positioning and morale
Couldn't tell you how the mechs in this one work but it's probably worth noting that historically actual bayonet fights were extremely rare on the open field - to the point that contemporaries remarked on them as exceptional when they happened. The usual end result of a charge was that one side's nerve gave well before contact and either the attacker stopped short (likely eating an extra volley for his trouble) and either fell back or engaged in a firefight, or the target turned and ran normally reforming at a safer distance and some laggards getting ventilated by the pursuers.
Actual infantry hand-to-hand combat mainly occurred when fighting "in cover" - in fortifications, buildings, assorted "close" terrain etc.
another reason could've been the units as well. if a french unit that was fighting in melee was an elite grenadier/foot guard unit and it was against regular line infantry, the former would destroy the latter in seconds
Russia: “You’re trapped in the town with us!”
France: “I’m not trapped in here with you, you’re trapped in here with me.”
32:05 Nah man, I would bring the enemies cannonballs to them.
This game is one off the best in total war!
NTW3 is the absolute best total war experience in my opinion. If we could get historical games like this but with the polish of a full game I would be very pleased.
Finally some stuff with Polish army! Its nice to watch! Greetings from Poland!
thanks pixie for replying to about my napolean comment can you make one on vanilla or darthmod
edit:make on on vanilla or darthmod
make vanilla or darthmod pls bro
The French cav were slowly getting surrounded they were avoiding it.
that grenadier charge though…
uhhh maybe the prussians or the confed of the rhine
i don't understand why the soldiers shoot through the other soldiers in their own unit
39:47 Russians warp into view
Melee infantry feels more effective in this mod.
not with the way morale works
A good day to catch up w Apollo
Napoleon: Someone call an ambulance... But not for me
nice videooo
this mod is gloriously beautiful.
Ah yes, the fire in all directions strategy.
Hi Apollo, I enjoy your TW videos. I also played Kingdom Come along with your videos recently and it was more enjoyable. You should look into being a sports announcer if you ever wanted to do something different on the side.
Been playing warhammer total war 3 and I cant stand the fighting, always come back to this game for the crisp infantry battles.
"Every time I think the Russians are done, there just so many more..."
Not the first time for THAT line I'm sure.
Its Saxony poland Cause they had the same leader during the napoleonic wars
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duchy_of_Warsaw
...complicated. Though largely academic as _de facto_ it was a French puppet state. Curiously enough, for what it now was worth, the nominal ruler Frederick Augustus I of Saxony was apparently entirely sincere about trying to recreate the essentially extinct Polish state.
The title of the video alone, made this a must-watch XD
45:55 They're literally pretending lmfao, no one was dying. Drama queens.
what a good title
Hey Pixelated Apollo great to see you putting some more NTW3 more content please Brother
Yes
Remind a little bit to a battle of Friedland 1807
yessssss he back with napoleon!!!
Pixled You should watch Epic History War Napoleonic Wars 1/6 and 7/15 if you have not seen it yet
if only you knew the truth...
Tbh if I have the artillery I'd place 1 battery to the back since it's inclines so it can be protected
Dude jast ran away 😅. It is the straight which worked on the real nepoleon 😁. To defeat nepoleon .
maybe the prussians or the confed of the rihne
I know politics and video games shouldn't mix but I cannot say I wasn't pleased seeing them get there ass kicked.
Commanders :Napoleon be littering with a bunch of light line infantry but that's bad for the environment. Me: atleast there biodegradable.
“I don’t know why the French are retreating…”
…I mean… we all know why
26:15 That is perfectly put lmao, as a Polish soldier literally face stomps a Russian at that exact moment
.
Is the musket sound part of this mod?
the battles you show are 10/10 but commentary always a 4/10. Still like to watch tho
Why aren’t you making bannerlord videos? Don’t mind if I ask
Yes
That was an epic battle indeed.
Is this mod for the campaign or just multiplayer?
The map and army layout reminds me of the battle of Leipzig
Is total war napoleon online or you can just play single player
Lol put Napoleon in the thumbnail that’s all you need
I KNEW IT! I saw you were playing NTW on discord :))
any chance we can already play this with the newer generation of cpus?
Yee this is sick
I clicked because of the title honestly, loved it
when I saw the French flag in the 19th century: "hahaha it's just french"
and it turned out that Napoleon was there: "to mother, from her dear child, it seems I can't buy vegetables anymore in the market"
what.
Can you customize your own battles in this game?
They spanked the crap out of them! Lol
