In this unusual episode, short on our typical archer corps to sustain our army, we get creative with formations and use the landscape terrain in order to defeat a large force.
Welcome back future Khans, Emperors, Jarls and Sultans of Calradia! We're continuing to show our late-game campaign including huge battles, and winning(most) of these battles by deploying advanced tactics to overcome superior enemy forces. Our entire channel is dedicated to helping players improve their field command and if that's your desire, or just want to see huge, dramatic battles, you've come to the right place.
This series, part 4 of our Freestyle Tactics series, designed to show highly unique situations and then adapting our tactical approach on the fly, while narrating as I play. In this episode we show the wide range of styles of play taking on the enemy in a highly unorthodox manner, with excellent results.
A few of these videos overlap(for example there are now TWO volume IV in this series), I apologize for that, I had a computer crap out on me so I've had some lost data files, and made some videos with the same number. Oh well, two for one!)
Please comment, like and subscribe if you're interested in more of my ultra-late-game campaign, that may end up ending in utter despair, but that's the challenge of it. Any challenge where success is assured is no challenge at all.
My campaign is an extremely late-game campaign where I am resolved to give no peace to these scum Kingdoms attacking me - seven of the eight have been at war for years, with only Sturgia at a neutral stance. My family of warriors is now large though and with what remaining strength and valor we can must, we stand against the map of Calradia.
Join me on this adventure if you like huge battles, the use of advanced tactical maneuvers and intense Bannerlord gameplay, and subscribe to my channel if you want to follow along. This campaign is very lightly modded:
I use four mods:
Lord Retinue Uptier(Makes the enemy forces stronger, much less peasants and lower ranked troops)
www.nexusmods.com/mountandbla...
Improved AI Troops(Also makes enemy lords and their armies tougher by giving them a higher daily xp rate. This means you'll routinely face armies with HUGE numbers of the highest tier units, sometimes four or five times the normal amount in vanilla Bannerlord): www.nexusmods.com/mountandbla...
Death for all: This mod allows you to set the rate at which nobles die more often. I want both a harder challenging late-game but also a more realistic game. If you're cut down with a massive aserai two-handed axe, you shouldn't just be injured 99.9% of the time. It's a very customizable mod so you can just a little more death or set the death rate so high you get several deaths every battle. The number I often like is '10', some deaths but not a massacre of nobles...
www.nexusmods.com/mountandbla...
I also use the Dismemberment Plus Mod: It's highly customizable and works seamlessly with the new beta(and versions back to 1.28). I thoroughly recommend it if you enjoy carnage!:
steamcommunity.com/sharedfile...
I've also used Realistic Battle Mod in the past and highly recommend it for Ai and battle realism BUT I find the pace too slow for my taste and the AI is actually rather predictable after a half dozen battles. Still I wanted to put a plug in for it here, it's a GREAT mod and highly configurable. www.nexusmods.com/mountandbla...
Much of the music and inspiration for this and other videos in the channel are inspired by Epic History TV - probably THE best channel on youtube(and the internet for that matter) covering the Napoleonic wars. With amazing work Epic History TV takes you through the dramatic and incredibly story of Napoleon covering all of his most famous battles. I HIGHLY recommend it.

Two battles in one video?!? "We've been blessed!!"

Thanks brother, this is actually something I'm very curious about people's opinions on. I'm still processing about a dozen different battles and still going back and forth in my mind whether or not it's better to have a very long episodes for battles including multiple battles sometimes per episode or rather people would see battles cut into two pieces if they are incredibly long and watch 15 minute videos on battles instead of a 45 minute video on three battles. Your feedback is appreciated!

@@HeadlessHorsemanProductions I like seeing a mix honestly. Sometimes sitting down and seeing a nice quick video, like the 300 series is nice. But I think I would enjoy seeing longer fights specifically on your main campaign, with how far into it you are and how outnumbered, it feels like I can jump into the role playing aspect with your army. It feels like we're fighting a long grueling war and a longer video helps with the immersion.

Well then I am happy to say that BOTH are coming as I have both a half dozen "300" battles processing(and getting BIGGER), and the campaign is also getting chaotic, with a mix of faster battles(often back to back to back), and HUGE battles that take an hour plus... Stoked it's fun to watch, because it sure is fun to play.

im really enjoying your improv tactics, and all of your videos in general. Find it really interesting how you use shield wall cav as basically arrow magnets, moving other troops up behind them, blocking, and that cav defensive circle was magnificent. Im slowly watching all your videos (and liking them), but will take some time to watch everything i think. Myself i tend to favor infantry, so its cool to see the different things.

I'm working on an entire series of episodes right now covering infantry tactics. It's by no means completely comprehensive but it does cover a lot of tactics some you may find new or unusual. Thank you for the kind words

7,000 hours(yikes!) of gameplay and a stupidly strong core of veterans certainly help. I'm aware that some people watching, emulate and then are disappointed their results aren't the same, but even if people improve notably from watching these videos, I am a very happy guy.

Been playing Bannerlord for a few months now, love the game. You’re creating great content for the community, keep up the fantastic work. I have a question about what looks like a troop placement aesthetic. I can’t stand looking at the flags, and while I’m in battle, I don’t recall seeing green dots. Is that a mod you use, or is that in settings?
@HeadlessHorsemanProductions

RTS mod, I hope you can add it because it's incredibly useful - after you get knocked out(your main guy/gal), you can then use other allied forces as your commander... That and the better flag icons make for a superior mod. The link may not be in the description but it's easy to load(to a pc) with a simple google search.

why they dont change the squads, to choose only who has shield or not, javelins or not, now only can "prioritize" those, it's annoying, I would like to make a squad only with shield, not a percentage of it.

It WOULD be great to be able to set this all up in the pre-battle screen but the system works *kinda* well and honestly I think most players don't even bother with this kind of micromanagement.
