there is a reason why every soldier has a flag. Each flag signified their rank in the military, foot soldier has Sashimono or small rectangular banners. Jirushi, various flags or banners used as a means of identification. Hata-jirushi were one of the older types of standards they were long streaming banners attached to a crosspiece and held up on a long bamboo or wooden rod. Nobori is used to represent the samurai or daimyō who carried it. That's all I remember there is too many to remember
@098765 Craper Japan only use light armor so they can move faster in battle and they are not rich in terms of iron or steel, so they make do of what they got. Unlike any other western country, Japan is still not accepting foreigners back then
I had one guy fall off a bridge into the river, poor bastard yelled for help the rest of the battle while people were shooting and fighting in close-combat snuffing out his cries... before the battle finished he drowned
Hanzo's Shadows are an elite ninja unit. All ninja units are really meant for opening the gates for you during siege battles but if you use their smokebomb power in conjunction with their ranged explosive attacks they can make for great defensive or offensive troops. But they are very small and very vulnerable to any attack if caught out in the open.
Older videos: I dislike how seige battles are timed at 20 minutes. There's no time to be strategic about things, or plan out your moves. This video: I like how seige battles are timed at 20 minutes. It makes things so panicked and intense.
Apollo, you should host some Shogun 2 or FotS co-op or head-to-head campaigns! They are such amazing Total War titles, that besides Thrones of Britannia, my friends and I just keep replaying Legendary Shogun 2. It would be great to see it back on your challenge, with you guys roleplaying the clan throughout the campaign!!
Hey Apollo, if you havent seen it yet i highly recommend looking at the age of vikings mod for total war atilla. Its like thrones of brittania but the siege locations and cities are so much better.
J'ai l'impression que les charcutiers et les bouchers ont fait honneur à la France haha. GG, 20 minutes pour une forteresse à 3 étages c'était un sacré challenge !
I just wanted to say love the video and thank you so much for making so many good videos bringing joy to my life been watching you for years thank youuu
So far away we wait for the day For the lives all so wasted and gone We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days Through the fire and the flames we carry on
it's sick to see how realistic Shogun 2 can be like people getting cut and blood spliting and people exploding, and people getting shot in the head by arrows, it's like hell
What is the shaded in Rome 2? Also, how do you have your graphics look so good. I use a Dell XPS 13 and even with unit graphics to the max they don’t look as clean. What’s your trick?
Keeping his Hanzo’s Shadows on the wall to take those shots is a waste of that unit. A [veteran] unit of Shadows can do a ton of damage to the enemy so letting them absorb ammo is a shame.
The animations in shogun were so good... I feel like they've regressed in that aspect with the newer total wars. Im hoping it will be a major focus in the infantry heavy Troy total war game.
Huh? The Timer was at 01:02 when the attacker lost control for the last time. It could very well be, that they didnt take control again in 2 seconds. Just saying. The defenders could have clutched it.
i dont play that game but didnt the defender win? there was less then a minute left and if i saw it right the cap took one minute, so how should the atteckers have won if there was 1 unit somewhere hidden
Imagine if Time limit was a real thing in real life, People be like oh we killed almost all of them but their is still a guy in the capture point and time has run out, alright guys pack your shit and lets go home, we have been defeated.
Europe: every unit must carry one flag.
Japan: everyone bring your own flag from home.
Yeah, they're easy to make since they're paper flags

17:30, extreme left corner, that guy got thrown off the castle
Also the horse XD
I had one guy fall off a bridge into the river, poor bastard yelled for help the rest of the battle while people were shooting and fighting in close-combat snuffing out his cries... before the battle finished he drowned
I was gonna make this comment. xD
@@juliusmoe-nstar8942 Man that's just sad...
Samurai: NANI?!!!!
Rather than just going to cut, whenever the game crashes, I want to hear Apollo swear really loudly before resuming his commentary.
Lol yeah or do a compilation of it on how he reacts! Maybe he will see this haha
Do a life of a soldier on the two shadows that survived
this is a brilliant idea plz do it
Up
We are similar!
⬅️
8:50 the so called "artillery" was actually ninjas with bombs!
I think he already found out
4:52 look at the samurai flying in the background, what a missed camera shot
14:46 so fucking majestic seeing those ashigaru march towards their enemy in no rush. Death before dishonor.
They are so intimidating.
When you describe your first time 00:09

Love Shogun 2 with Pixelated Apollo, keep up the great work man!
I would love to see more of these. Never played total war but been watching your videos religiously! Love these total war videos!
“Historical fans and weeaboos alike” I died😂😂

i love shogun 2
"quickie and goodie"....this is why Apollo is the best total war commentator on UA-cam.
If this was real it would go down in history for the tactics and decisions made in this battle

4:52 look at the background. Those dudes went flying
Never knew mcdonald clan fought in sengoku jidai

17:32 Shah that guy went flying over there wall😂💀
I just love Shogun 2. Best Total War
through the fire and the flames? *DRAGONFORCE INTENSIFIES*
Loven those arrow slit fortification against the walls. That's something new.
So glad you are doing Shogun two again I loved this series
Ahhh nothing better than starting a day with watching Pixelated Apollo’s new made videos.
Hey love the videos especially shotgun 2. Also the axis and allies gameplay was absolutely amazing. Would love to see more.
Ah, it's been a long time... Love the Shogun 2 stuff.
Samouraï duels in Shogun 2 were magnificent. Without doubt way better than in Three Kingdoms.
J'ai l'impression que les charcutiers et les bouchers ont fait honneur à la France haha. GG, 20 minutes pour une forteresse à 3 étages c'était un sacré challenge !
When you finally catch a video early but you don’t have anything clever to say in the comments
Lol
Shogun 2 was my first TW game and it remains one of my favorite and most played games.
“Fire their muskets”
Pretty sure those guard infantry have rifles not muskets
Nice video Apollo! I was just thinking the other day that it would be nice to see some more Shogun.
I just wanted to say love the video and thank you so much for making so many good videos bringing joy to my life been watching you for years thank youuu
Shogun 2 is my favourite total war game.
8:40-8:52 is best quote
2:46 did anyone see the triforce on the shield?
Yes,pixie do more of Shogun and man of war please
Oh so thats how Mobile Legends got Hanzo
loving the shogun 2 comeback
4:51 by the stakes of Christ
There's only one channel with Shogun 2 videos that I like and am still waiting for. fishsandwichpatrol
@Pixelated Apollo What happened to the Empire 18th century tournament?
99IronDuke nothing it’s almost over
@@PixelatedApollo1 I hope you show the best battles?
The artillery of Fall of the Samurai is so stupidly op. You can win every campaign battle with only armstrong cannons...
I was a little bit confused by tittle and I immediately thought about Dragonforce
same lol
when the general charged the french infantry some of them flew off the walls
This is why i subbed to pixelated apollo
Good work on the channel I’ve been watching for 3 years and it’s nice to see you hit 600k subs
Oh no! Now I have to figure out if I'm the weeabo or history fan!
Or maybe both?
私は両方笑です
I'm both lol
Me: sees the title
also me: queue dragonforce
On a cold winter morning
In a time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign
We ride towards the fight
@@memyselfandi432 me: how long is the rift
Dragonforce: *Y E S*
Nice to see the reappearance of those balls of justice. They're a big miss those balls.
*DragonForce intensifying*
So far away we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on
Was looking for you
there was a time i was playing total war 3 kingdoms when 1 unit of 80 men fought and after the battle only 4 survived
I WAS ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT and..... the ending was so anticlamactic :D
bro wtf that ending! i wanna see the ending!!
When u said "but its a goody" i got chills ;-;
Nice a quickie
it's sick to see how realistic Shogun 2 can be like people getting cut and blood spliting and people exploding, and people getting shot in the head by arrows, it's like hell
More shogun 2 videos love it
That was a cool battle
I NEED THESE GAMES MANNNNN
What is the shaded in Rome 2? Also, how do you have your graphics look so good. I use a Dell XPS 13 and even with unit graphics to the max they don’t look as clean. What’s your trick?
Shogunate archer do fire accurately because they are all trained properly however this made the shogunate to not have many of them
Keeping his Hanzo’s Shadows on the wall to take those shots is a waste of that unit. A [veteran] unit of Shadows can do a ton of damage to the enemy so letting them absorb ammo is a shame.
i must say that the defenders did a really awfull job at defending
The animations in shogun were so good... I feel like they've regressed in that aspect with the newer total wars. Im hoping it will be a major focus in the infantry heavy Troy total war game.
*Things are calming down* just 500 dead bodies on the floor......
Well thank god you still play shogun
Hey pixie do u by chance know if you can run Mountain blade on a like 2006 pc
Dyslexiated Apollo.
MORE BATTLES LIKE THIS!!
I love your videos apollo!
R.I.P to the samurai that died due to friendly fire
Huh? The Timer was at 01:02 when the attacker lost control for the last time. It could very well be, that they didnt take control again in 2 seconds. Just saying. The defenders could have clutched it.
Apollo, all the Ninja units have bombs that they can use
how did you get the traditional units to fight the fall of the samurai uniys
shoguns the best total war you don't record
The defender panic!
What is VPN?
i dont play that game but didnt the defender win? there was less then a minute left and if i saw it right the cap took one minute, so how should the atteckers have won if there was 1 unit somewhere hidden
How did he miss that crazy hit on @4:53
What mod/s was used in this battle?
LOVE YOUR VIDS BUT COULD YOU BRING BACK NAPOLEN TOTAL WAR THANKS!!!!! MUCH LOVE
That was one awkward battle 😂😂
That was a brutal decapatacion
This took to long... but i love it bring more
If you ever play holdfast again form 2 ranks so you can move more
Honestly, if the yari ashigaru were in yariwall formation fighting, the defenders would have probably won. Still a great fight though.
Other title: through fire and flame the samurai came!
"Historical fans and Weeaboos alike"
- Pixelated Apollo, September 24th 2019
Bro very Bloody conflict there
He could have saved the fortress Waited too long to send the reinforcements!!
Apollo ik u kinda talked about Troy already but can u play a game and talk a little more on what u think about it
How can you put the graphics so high?
We carry on!
best total war to date
Yari ashigaru is the great loss XD yeah very very great loss
Imagine if Time limit was a real thing in real life, People be like oh we killed almost all of them but their is still a guy in the capture point and time has run out, alright guys pack your shit and lets go home, we have been defeated.
I guess its hojo in defending and tokugawa from the banners
u made my day!
