Thank you Jackie for covering this update! After all those Byzantine walled submods made by the community, isn’t it nice to have an official Helm’s Deep? 😏 Palotti had to move every single stone to to make that explosion.
Nuts to CA
Well done I’m a fan I play the mod all the time
Hi, i am the one who mad the Helm's Deep model and put it in game, thanks a lot about your opinion regarding the game design, i took some risks but it worked well in the end. Btw for the wall explosion was a lot of trial and errors with simulations, terrain physics and attrition but i managed to get an explosion that doesn't shoot the pieces everywhere along the map.
Looks amazing, thank you!
You did awesome, bro. o7
Bro u are legend this map looks great.
Look freaking awesome.
Thank you for your hard work and patience with this mod!
Hey Jackie , i'm the guy that made the trailer , it's a pleasure to see youtubers such as you making videos showing the trailer
i (obviously) had the opportunity to play this map earlier, the map is really a masterchief , especially concerning the details of the citadel
Awesome stuff man the trailer is great! I will add you channel to the desc of the video :)
@@JackieFishHD It's an honor ! Thank you friend
A long version should come in the following weeks , with a complete machinima of the battle for helm's deep
Everyone: "Yeeee explosion, death, bashing some orcs". Me *giggling to see my terrain on video*
When the campaign will be ready then this game will surpass all the total war sales combined ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Thank u so much modders for this
Keep up the good work ❤
Lets just hope they don't get slapped with a C&D by Amazon. 😢
@@abcmaster9 I don't think Amazon owns the rights to peter jacksons Lotr.
Looks like meat is back on the menu, boys!!!
They have passed like rain on the mountain,
like wind in the meadows,
the days have gone down in the West into shadow.
Great video! I'm excited for the campaign portion of the mod, very happy to hear its 50% complete! Looking forward to more videos covering this mod
It’s so beautiful! I cannot wait for a campaign map where you can actually play through the war of the ring.
It's amazing to see a whole new version and tactics for this Helms Deep map. Great compliments to the makers of the map and to the creators of the mod. I am absolutely looking forward what new things will come over time. You are all amazing, and thanks Jackiefish for covering the replay
4:55 how you miss the opportunity to say "and so it begins"
NAaaaa, this is maaad. Hyped hyped hyped !
Awsome map! TDD did it again! Can´t wait to play there for myself! :D
It's really nice to see how much time and effort went into this it looks just like the movie and on top of that even the mountains and the background look amazing
Thankyou so much Jackie for showing this! Means a lot sir, not having to see BA mode this and that. Once again thankyou sir
This is Total War: Attila, my man.
The Hornburg is the actual fortress, Helms Deep is the gorge.
This looks really good, I love the ammo supply locations, I wrote for years that it doesn't make defenders have the same ammo as in a field battle - really good feature, if only CA could learn from this. P.s. why not night battle ? where are the tourchs ? where is the rain ?
p.s. shame no official soundtrack :(
People think they want things like ammo supply until it’s used against them, if they added half the features people want them too hell even 25% the game would be to hard and only people like myself who already use every mod possible to make the game more challenging would find any joy In it, ancient empires with submods I think is the best total war experience but they could never do it as an actual game, people want arcade style battles, they don’t want to see their men mass retreat because they ran them j stead of walked them, they don’t want to see a horse archer army be able to go back to their supply wagons thus allowing ranged to never have to engage, people don’t want heavy cav to be nearly unstoppable, people don’t want men at the walls to stab guys on the ladders as they climb, people don’t want the AI to starve out their settlements every single time unless you sally or reinforce, there are a lot of things CA does on purpose to make things fun and people forget that just because it works in a mod like this where say some evil units are 3x bigger with 300 guys a unit or have 10x the hipoints like trolls, and with the upkeep of the evil faction they will always be able to field 4-5 full stacks of orcs to 1 of the hood guys, thus the extra arrows make sense
@@austinduff6493 While I agree that CA obviously do a lot of things because they think they are fun design and I agree not everything people get excited about is good for them, I would disagree with a lot of what you said.
I agree a lot of the current WH crowd and even some of the older crowd want things that I would consider harmful for the expeirence, candies if I may. But the fact someone wants a candy, doesn't mean its healthy for them for the long run. And in fact many of CA's choices to design to make the game fun are actually killing TW on the long run the way I see it, and time will tell if I am right. They streamlined their games to the point that even long time TW players find themselves paying campaigns for 60~ turns before they had enough of it, fun sure, but for a short run, not long run. Same goes for CA and the power creep issue (which they use to sell their DLC).
Every feature needs to be well designed, its not about adding or removing just one feature, its about balancing features and systems together, interwinding them, and desinging them to have counters and equvilent replacements. I am not familiar with Dawnless Days balancing, so I didn't speak on it in specific, and I don't know if its balanced or not there. But when I look at sieges from a design perspective - I am 100% standing behind what I have said.
Obviously this feature shouldn't be disconnected from other aspects of the game whether it is in battle or in campaign, this can tie to buildings that were built in the provice and the way it refills ammo needs to have a counter available to deal with it.
As long as the feature makes sense and is implamented both design wise and AI wise properly I am 100% in favor of it being added. Unfortunately its been a while since CA did anything like that.
The torches are there you just see them less because it's daylight; the official soundtrack is in, but the video will get a copyright strike if it plays it, so Jackie - as we do in our channel - is using our official soundtrack, clearly based on the OST. We didn't do a night battle because we wanted everything to be seen, there'll be plenty of recreations of the real battle!
it still baffles me how CA have never made a LOTR or GOT game, i know the ip's are probably expensive but they'd 100% sell very well
I'm surprised too. The community for both are huge. I would love to see both come to total war. It would be awesome. It would be interesting to see how they add the dragons into the game of thrones total war. Probably would look a lot like Warhammer
This is so nostalgic for me as I played Warcraft 3 Helm's Deep as a kid and of course watched the movies. This is so cool that Helm's Deep lives on through more video games.
I thought the orca matching at first was a movie scene... that's badass.
I already know who I plan on playing given the chance. Glory to Arnor. (But if Arnor isn't released when the campaign comes out then Glory to Dale)
Oh yeah, some LOTR content. LETS GO!!!!
Where is Gandalf and the Rohirrim...?
Stuck in traffic on the M6.
Having a Total War: LOTR, would be insanely Epic to have.
Holy fuck, that explosion near the end at 28:11 left me with a pikachu face.
Beautiful map. Just well done. It looks fantastic.
Battle of helms deep is still awesome and the hornburg is a castle I would love to have
I am amazed the fps did not drop down to under 10
The idea that we will at some point actually have a full Campaign one day for Dawnless Days is absolutely wild.
So good !!
The lord of the rings 😍😍😍😍😍
Amazing!
How come mods are so much better than the vanilla game
Awesome, hope this gets a release soon!
It’s getting released 1st of September
But Its Already 1st Of September For Us Aussies@@zacaboy3001
@@zacaboy3001do you know how to update the mod or does it auto update?
W
its not the true battle without the calvary coming in to help and save the day but still a very cool mod
I like the one where the defendes were smart and invented the Gatling gun lol
i bought attila just for this mod. i hope campaign will come soon
this map alone makes me wanna install the game again
beautiful map
I thought the campaign map wasnt moddable.
Thats great news 😊😊😊
Yes it is! We're working on it as we speak!
I cant wait til we have the capability to do a battle with actual tens of thousands of units on the map
Soon this mod might get me to give up my 24 simultaneous DAC campaigns...
I think we saw how the movie scene would have ended up had reinforcements not shown up.
I have to ask, how did you manage your units to not have animation lag?
Why don't I have the Helm's Deep map? I downloaded the mod but it's not there
Creative Assembly and Sega really need to make a Lord of the Rings Total War
i think the map is too big. the scale is off. not sure if this was intentional to improve battle mechanics.
All it takes is one Zhao Ming with blade of Slaanesh
Victory for the Good side.
Are we getting lord of the rings on console?
Very cool. Your camera work is a bit jerky though
Can you please tell me the mods you use?
I would really love for someone to walk me through in downloading this sort of gameplay :/. Can never seem to get it right
join the mods discord and ask there!
where is big balista ?
I dont care that it has been 8Y since the start of the project. Take another 3Y to polish it if you want as l

I'm so lost how many different LOTR mods are there total war games
We're the only one for modern TW games 😏 (formerly Rise of Mordor)
@TheDawnlessDays is there other LOTR mods using RTW2 or atilia. The last mod I used for LOTR was for M2TW
@@lukenorris7677 nope, we are the only one for Attila and we were a mod way back when for Rome 2, but we moved because Attila is much more customizable.
how do you download this update if you don't have the launcher
Same way as any other update. Alpha Version from NexusMods.
@@TheDawnlessDays it says the mod is quarantined is that something I can fix.
@@simonlenepveu3134 no, you either download with the launcher or wait until Nexus gets it out of quarantine. We’ve contacted them.
Sorry it just really hurt to hear the wall referred to as "The Hornberg"
@jackiefishHD what game is this ?
The Dawnless Days, a mod for Total War: Attila.
Wut are Elves doing there.
lmao neutral to the despair of this part of the story play by play football announcer of helms deep
Whats the requirements to play this mod? Only attila or expansions
Base Attila only
dont total war attila have night map?
Yeah but it always show up really bad on youtube, so better to fight in the day
11.00 haw did he does this ? to be in cinematic mod?
It's a button that hides all the HUD, it should be K, i don't remember
@@sirpalotti290 okay Thanks dude you teached me the right button, huge Kiss from France
I think it's a bit too upscaled
Why can we never have a canonically accurate simulation of The Battle Of the Hornburg? Why do people always have to follow the films?
You can. We just chose not to in order to show off the map, which is based on the movie because our mod is visually based on the movies, while the campaign / design is based on the lore and the books.
Maybe one day i will do a submod with Lore accurate Hornburg
why 18000? there were 10000 orcs in the lore...
Counting the good guys. LOL
We need some more Byzantine episodes from in the name of Jerusalem 2
I think if anything, the castle is TOO big
Everything looks very scattered, more like 5 different small battles instead of a single giant battle
That’s because in every mod the battle just becomes an unbalanced slogfest. We wanted to make it interesting and see if you can actually hold up 😏
Well, it's trade-offs. Either you get an unplayable battle or you get a stretched castle. It's a game after all, so we decided the worse trade off is the map will be unplayable, and hence the choice. It's a total war game after all
think thats a completely valid argument. Wasn't much difference in third age total war either.@@victimized1
@@HPS-WesNot sure what you mean
very poor defence
I don't like that the fortress is too big. This is not to scale, right?
It's indeed bigger for gameplay purposes. Jackie goes pretty well over the details why it will make the map more enjoyable to play.
Beautiful work, I just can’t stand the scale of Helm’s Deep, is way off. 20 thousand men can t cover all the terrain, makes it feel less real if you are a fan of the movies. It is my only doubt, these modders are heroes.
Total war is just the worst for siege warfare, and i feel bad saying this for a video where the modders put in so much hard work. It's like they made a fantastic sand castle out of used kitty litter.
I dont like that Helms Deep it's always so huge in those battles, it also dont look good. If prefer that smaller version in movies
Then it will be unplayable. Don't forget what game this is for.
You either get an unplayable slog of chokepoints and routing, and hard to position troops, or you get this. Notice how they didn't commit immediately to the gate, and instead hard pushed the field
Stop talking please just let the video and a music
no
Boringly one sided
BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO😮😯😲😳🤩🙂🙃
That second explosion was pretty unfair, not gonna lie. Very unbalanced~
