    Great video! I am fascinated by Bronze Age history and I didn't expect you to do a battle on it! I'm surprised you didn't use Total War Pharaoh but the Age of Bronze mod instead. But I can't blame you as TW Pharaoh still feels underbaked. Anyway would love to see more battles around this time period, like Hittites vs Mitanni or Assyrians.

      ​@@AdituLaudisMMXXI Das kann ich verstehen. Aber Total war pharaoh wäre vorallem was die Streitwagen angeht viel Historischer gewesen. Man merkt leider das die Rome 2 engine auch mit Mods hier an ihre Grenzen stößt. Generell haben sich die Entwickler viel Mühe gegeben die Pharao Einheiten historisch akkurat darzustellen.

Da die Hehtiter den berühmten Mittanischen Pferdeträner Kikkuli angeworben haben waren ihre Streitwagen damals möglicherweise die besten der Welt.

      Yeah there no denying it's doesn't match up but the pharaoh of exodus was never specifically named, with pretty much the only reason Ramesses the Great is chosen because he's famous. Not to mention a lot of the biblical chronology, (as much as can be trusted) indicates story is set closer in the 18th dynasty not his 19th.

Потери египтян были огромными. И Рамзес вернулся с остатками войска не солоно хлебавши... И вообще, по библии - Рамзес погиб в водах Красного моря со всем своим войском, преследуя евреев, которые НИКОГДА НЕ БЫЛИ В ЕГИПТЕ, СА ФАРАОН (утонувший) ЛЕЖИТ В СВОЁМ САРКОФАГЕ.
