I love how you said someone was “in the wrong place at the wrong time” as if that isn’t the case with literally every other faction in every game you play
I just want to point out 1 small interesting historical fact here: The size of the retenue outnumbers the amount of Men-at-Arms present in the English army at the battle of Agincourt.
@@DelmworksHades is easily top 5 favorite games for me and (in my opinion) redefined the roguelite genre. I’m both skeptical and excited to see what happens in the sequel.
I have to agree. Like don't get me wrong, this looks like a well made game for it's genera, but it's still a fairly niche genera, (and I think this is the first I've heard about this game though that could just be me), so it's odd it's so wishlisted.

Tbh this is really great to put into perspective how massive medieval armies were when a 1000 looks so impressive I would not dare to imagine the Chinese armies 💀
29:50 watching your legion marching through the forest in that scene, strongly reminds me of the Medieval 2 Total War main menu background, and now i am listening to that games OST again.
But imagine. Kleeper finished his run. The town is grinded to kingdom come. Deforestation and destruction rule supreme. And the town people start to rebuild And then, *he* shows up. “HEY THERE ITS JOSH WELCOME BACK TO LETS GAME IT OUT”
Honestly, the import/export thing is pretty much just how manufacturing economies work, and yeah, it really is that wild when everyone else is a subsistence economy. Being able to duplicate towers and raise hundreds of knights in moments, less so 😂 This game looks pretty interesting, and is seriously impressive as a solo project! I look forward to seeing more of it.
to be fair... his army was basically heavily armored and highly trained platemail soldiers against bandits with makeshift weapons and no training... so of course it would be unlikely for them to die while also heavily outnumbering the enemy. and if your talking about the spearmen in the beginning spearmen have an advantage against infantry even moreso if they dont move and let the enemy charge into them... its like an 80% boost to their power if the enemy charges into them which is why spears were some of the most common weapons used thruout history.
Turns out the enemy just couldn't handle the intimidation tactic known only as "The Inchworm". Or the dancing the troops did on their way to the enemy.
Pretty sure what happened with the battlefield was the enemy waited until they had fully regrouped, saw you outnumbered them 10:1 and just said "nope, fuck it", dropped their weapons, and walked away lol
I just wish this game had a world map with like kingdom and different provinces with a king who can be overthrown kind of like Crusader Kings where you can play as minor lord of the big kingdom and fight against other lords, proving yourself to the king and sometimes fight major wars, hope devs will implement some of those things, because game is pretty barebones if you actually get into it.
If you would like a 1770 army of kitted knights, you can hire then, click the import button, and even if theyre off screen, you're still selcted on the most recent hired man at arms. At least, i think.
I must ask, Kleaper, I know this isn’t a warhammer video, but I need to know. How much of the lore of Warhammer have you gone into? You seem to (somewhat) know your stuff. I’m trying to get into the lore, and yeah, you’re right, Helman Ghorst is just some guy.
The game has SO much potential, but it does indeed look like it was made by 1 dude, hopefully all the bugs and balance problems will be fixed before the release!
it'll take extra time clicking back and forth but you can upgrade each unit when you buy it even with it's "circle" being off the screen. Buy Retinue Upgrade Dude But Retinue Upgrade Dude Rinse Repeat Acewrap Wrist.
As an agriculture products futures trader, my enjoyment from the video doubled when I saw arbitrage and negating market commission. Where do I unlock this talent IRL without going to jail?
I love the idea of a game like this where you can eventually work to be OP, if the dev adds a way to get silly amount of knight's but more balanced (like they costs a fuckton) thatd be sick
it would be fun to have the ability to possess a troop of your choice if you wanted to join the fight. Either that or have your first person character maybe have the ability to fight or even cast spells.
Kleaper thinks he got a free key; but in reality, the dev is getting free bug testing.
And free advertysing
@@KillerKorn44 don't think the game really needed that
Yeah, all the UA-camrs aren't too smart. They push buttons for a living, like monkeys in a lab.
Clearly it did if the devs hand out free keys to streamers. You also must be a UA-camr.
That's the point
"Thank you dev for giving me an early opportunity to break your shit" - kleaper
he really is an american spiffing brit, the best playtester a dev could ask for
@@asherwoodrow7471Lets game it out is also good at that
Fun fact kleaper, every time you recruit a new retinue you see the new soldier so yes you can upgrade all of their armor if you go nice and slow
I wonder if you can just use an Autohotkey script to do that at like 30/60 soldiers a second.
Yes but you won't break the game fast if you go nice and slow

watch out, history says otherwise my good man
Carthage calls Kleaper
You did not actually need to surround or outgun a man. You merely need to convince him he is surrounded or outgunned.
History says more things that contradict his words
For context: most armies routed when they saw ~300 knights (Latin Empire wars), Kleaper had over 3 times that many.

Seems this is all just as the developer intended. Kleaper is just playing the game correctly, nothing broken here.

Brother, you just invented industrialized trade early.
Am I the only one noticing that even though his army was better than the bandits, he didn't lose a single troop even after 2 back to back engagements?

Manor lords is medieval frostpunk except you don't need 2000 hospitals
Its actually historically accurate to assign families as workers, cause your last name was your profession back then.

Well, i'm sure the dev appreciates you finding this bug
The ai send at him pub crawlers.
He sended THE ENTIRE HOLY ARMY
honestly big brain tactic
give a free key to some of the noutorious game bug hunters in the youtube scene
patch the bugs they find.
profit.
If your retinue could be equipped with bows, it could be an awesome sight.

it would be fun to have the ability to possess a troop of your choice if you wanted to join the fight. Either that or have your first person character maybe have the ability to fight or even cast spells.
I'm going to love this game.
You actually could because when you buy a troop it automatically selected it so you could give it plate armor then
I'm curious whether this will be fixed next week when the Early Access version goes live.
