Just to note, some things have been simplified for the sake of the video and other things have been pronounced incorrectly, this is due to the narration being AI generated, hope you enjoy otherwise!

Most people don't realize the enormous losses napoleon had even before he reached Moscow. Not enough horses to haul fodder. Horses die. Not enough horses to haul supplies soldiers die. You can't let horses graze 6 hours a day .

That was probably the most Cinematic NTW made battle i would ever see. Great job mate!

Omg, that was spectacular! Thank you so much for filling my request for the Battle of Borodino! You've done a brilliant job. Amazing work. That must be your best battle vid yet, in my opinion. You captured the brutality really well 👏 Some brilliant details as well, my fav was the excellent (and deadly) field of fire enjoyed by the 19 x 12-pounder cannons of the Great Redoubt, protecting the Russian centre. Those cannon were the perfect foil for Napoleon's frontal assault tactics of that horrible day. None of the brilliance of Napoleon's masterpiece, Austerlitz, was seen at Borodino. Many of Napoleon's later battles were slugging matches, artillery duels and frontal infantry assaults. As promised, it'll be my pleasure to remain a Legend member of your channel until Christmas. Then I'll bump down a tier - unless I decide otherwise, of course. Thanks again for an amazing job! I've just finished work, so I'll have a better viewing when I get home. Cheers, mate 👍

wow, just as I search for Borodino videos, and this was uploaded less than an hour ago, perfect!

It took special people to be able to control battles on this scale. Excellent as always bud!!

Ah, a Napoleonic battle, this one sure was a nightmare of a bloodbath. It showed just where Napoleon's campaign was headed to in the end. Line based musketry warfare sure lead to horrendous casualties especially as the weapons improved and became more accurate.

Nice ! Super cool !! More off these please 🎉🎉

Amazing job thank you mate!

Never, EVER(!) assume ANY Campaign you undertake will be a short one. Design it to be short, but ALWAYS(!) plan for a long grinding Campaign of Attrition and adjust your Logistics (including replacements and reinforcements) accordingly.

This was superbly done and in places reminded me of Sergei Bondarchucks as yet unrivalled masterpiece War and Peace and that is high praise. It was impressive even on my phone! Really well done.

Borodino would've been won easily have Napoleon arrived with the full force of his original Army of over 500,000 men but by the time he got to Borodino the Army was down to under 200 K due to desertion and sickness . none the less, He should've headed back to France after Borodino while it was still warm season. He got what he wanted at Borodino and that was to demoralize the Russian army and Tzar !!! There was no reason to March all the way to Moscow and get caught in the brutal winter. Biggest military blunder in history !

Beautiful video

Overhead shots wonderful - detailed actions rather odd. Thanks for the attempt !

Invading Russia is like stretching an electric band. Stretch it too far and it will snap.

Great recounting. Fab graphics too!

Should have listened to Davoust, the Iron Marshal.

love your work btw, some of the time period background music but sublty playedwould be nice

10:38- I love that one guy hopping forward. He looks like someone from a Monty Python sketch.

The Grande Armée marched slowly to their deaths

Interesting visualisations, capture the essence of the hand-to-hand fighting. Not convinced they had exploding shells though 🙂

Fascinating, thank you.

I believe for the infantry men it was two shots a minute, or three if you were really good, or four a minute if you were exceptionally good.

nice, you next time you should try Michael Hordern ai voice for the "barry lyndon" Napoleon 3 mod

Cannonballs do not explode. They are simply solid balls of iron. Against infantry canister or grapeshot was used. These were composed of a bag of musket balls or small pieces of iron propelled by a gunpowder charge.

I like this video can you made video battle of verneuil

2:21 Wow that's some high quality graphics there.

Well done. NTW is a nice too, give us a good support to explain History events.

Did the French actually attack in line formation at Borodino? They usually used the column to break enemy lines and then formed lines themselves. Or is the model just not available in Total War? But good work!

Alot of death for sure /.... enjoyed watching

The more i learn about the battle the more i feel for jerome having to use his garde like it was worthless to napoleon like it was yet but a normal infantry. I sometimes wonder what he felt having to charge his westphalian garde at the redoubts.

crazy vid

so cool

Great cinematography.

I wish you would talk louder as, I can't here over the battle sounds, and you don't leave the subtitles up long enough for people to read, good video though, you need to look into the 2 problems I brought up

Hey mate can I ask what mods you used here ? Great video

SHOULD have three hr long video, I'm sure Scott is only spend 10 minutes on Borodino.😊

this reminds me of my friends mod Grand battle

Obviously, Napoleon didn’t play Risk, or he wouldn’t have invaded

Awesome video, a question: How to keep the corpses on the battlefield?. Bloodiest day, not bloodiest battle. Leipzig was significantly bloodier.

the transition from falinxs to stand off weapons must be the reason for standing in line in brightly collard uniforms waiting to be shot ! cover and concealment was for hunting game

that is how war should be fought two armies facing each other ,no tanks ,aircraft just infantry and horse cavalry

Can you do sekigahara, nagano, that battle between Qin and Chu. Siege of Carthage, Lapanto, Palatea? You and the other docos should colaborate. Maybe get the channels involed? Would love to help especially if you wanna make it battlefield britian/ancient battles style. PLUS Actors incerps (drool)

Say what you wanna say, Napoleon was The craziest and biggest general of The story.

To think anything is easy in war is to never have engaged

bello hermoso me encanta

roundshot does not explode on contact but bounces

Only one moral of a battle, either kill or ready to die.

Great cinematography and editing. It’s a shame that Empire and Napoleons’ sounds are so weedy and pathetic. Shogun 2 does guns way better. Still, very good video. By the way, what blood mod do you use?

Maybe you don't know, but it's been Emperor, not Tsar, since Peter the Great.

i would like to see continuoisly scrolling maps with all the action depicted...............

Combats effroyables ! Les soldats n'étaient que de la chair à canon... Napoléon, lorsqu'il était en position de force, aurait dû utiliser davantage la diplomatie, se rapprocher des Autrichiens et des Russes et leur faire comprendre que leur ennemi commun était la Grande Bretagne... Mais Napoléon était trop sûr de sa force militaire, trop ambitieux et trop orgueilleux pour s'abaisser à négocier et à privilégier le long terme, plutôt que des victoires immédiates, prestigieuses, mais sanglantes et onéreuses. Pour moi, il a su être un stratège militaire, mais pas un stratège politique...

This video has a flaw in that when the troops are shouting and guns bombing, it drowns out the narrator.

I wonder if anyone took the time to stop and smell the flowers, they look quite nice.

Respect to Pyotr Bagration. My man gave the grand armee a run for their money.

No scale taken into account. Audio is all over the place too.

What shortcut is used to remove all toggles in Napoleon Total War?

Hi which software do you use to record this?

How do u keep a army that size fed and watered

please correct commander Bagration it doesn't pronounce as "bagraishn" its Royal family of Georgia and pronounce as it written Bagration.

I would love to have a flame thrower in these kinds of battles 😅

Là Victoire est à Nous 💔

What was the name of the mods you used i wanna try to get the same experience as this

how did he cross 450,000 across 3 pontoon bridges, but when it cam time for battle Napoleon only had 1/4 of that many? What happened to the rest?

When will we finally see a "TW Napoleon 2" ? PS. Awesome video.

the french marching is my eye candy fr fr

What Mod are you using?

What mod is this

How did u get the french eagle into the game???

This was a time were Generals led from the front and the results were 49 French Generals dead or wounded and 22 Russian Generals dead or wounded including Prince Bagration who died about two weeks after the battle. The number of Colonels was higher it was a brutal fight that lasted but in the end the Russians were defeated and if they had continued fighting the next day it would had been a total disaster for the Russians.

This was his most terrible? No mention of Arthur Wellesley then?

Which software is used to creat visual like this 😮

Awesome video🗿👌, a question: How to keep the corpses on the battlefield?

What mod did you use?

this looks so realistic until you notice every soldier has the same face. but yeah the numbers of soldiers involved would look like this. too bad we don't have as many napoleonic war reenactors as we do us civil war or ww2.

are you using mod for this?

The only problem there is napoleon didn’t do any fighting his cannon fodder did .

Anyone know which mod is being used?

I'm glad Sega fixed the game for the Intel 12th gen processors.

1 Tervitus ja tänu 1 Paulus, Kristuse Jeesuse apostel Jumala tahtmisel selle elu tõotust mööda, mis on Kristuses Jeesuses, - 2 armsale pojale Timoteosele: Armu, halastust ja rahu Jumalalt Isalt ja Kristuselt Jeesuselt, meie Issandalt! 3 Ma olen tänulik Jumalale, keda ma oma esivanemate viisil puhta südametunnistusega teenin, alatasa meenutades sind oma eestpalvetes ööl ja päeval, 4 ning igatsedes sind näha, kui mulle tulevad meelde sinu pisarad, et ma saaksin täis rõõmu, 5 mäletades sinu siirast usku, mis esmalt elas sinu vanaemas Loises ja sinu emas Eunikes ja nüüd - selles olen ma veendunud - elab ka sinus. Julgustus kartmatuks Kristuse tunnistamiseks 6 Sel põhjusel tuletan ma sulle meelde, et sa taas õhutaksid lõkkele Jumala ande, mis on sinus minu käte pealepanemise kaudu. 7 Jumal ei ole meile ju andnud arguse vaimu, vaid väe ja armastuse ja mõistlikkuse vaimu. 8 Ära siis häbene tunnistamast meie Issandat ega mind, tema vangi, vaid kannata koos minuga kurja evangeeliumi pärast Jumala väe abil, 9 kes on meid päästnud ja kutsunud püha kutsega, mitte meie tegude järgi, vaid omaenese kavatsuse ja armu järgi, mis meile on antud Kristuses Jeesuses enne igavesi aegu, 10 nüüd on aga saanud avalikuks meie Päästja Kristuse Jeesuse ilmumise läbi, kes on kõrvaldanud surma ning on evangeeliumi kaudu toonud valge ette elu ja kadumatuse, 11 mille kuulutajaks ja apostliks ning õpetajaks mind on seatud. 12 Sel põhjusel ma ka kannatan. Ent ma ei häbene, sest ma tean, kellesse ma olen uskuma hakanud ja olen veendunud, et tema on vägev hoidma minu hoolde usaldatut oma päevani. 13 Võta terve õpetuse eeskujuks see, mida sa minult oled kuulnud usus ja armastuses, mis on Kristuses Jeesuses! 14 Seda head, mis su hoolde on usaldatud, hoia Püha Vaimu abil, kes meis elab. 15 Sa tead seda, et mulle on pööranud selja kõik, kes on Aasias, nende seas Fügelos ja Hermogenes. 16 Issand andku halastust Onesiforose kodule, sest tema on mind sagedasti kosutanud ega ole häbenenud mu ahelaid, 17 vaid kui ta juhtus Rooma, otsis ta mind hoolega ning leidis üles. 18 Issand andku talle leida halastust Issanda käest oma päeval! Ja kui palju ta on abistanud mind Efesoses, tead sina kõige paremini. 2Kuula Julgustus kartmatuks Kristuse tunnistamiseks 1 Sina siis, mu poeg, saa vägevaks armus, mis on Kristuses Jeesuses! 2 Ja mida sa minult oled kuulnud paljude tunnistajate kuuldes, see anna ustavate inimeste hoolde, kes edaspidi sobivad õpetama ka teisi. 3 Kannata koos minuga kurja nagu Kristuse Jeesuse tubli sõdur! 4 Ükski, kes on sõjateenistuses, ei seo end argielu askeldustega, kui ta tahab jääda meelepäraseks sellele, kes ta on sõduriks kutsunud. 5 Ja kui keegi võistleb, ei saa ta ometi võidupärga, kui ta ei võistle korrakohaselt. 6 Tööd rügav põllumees peab esimesena saama osa viljast. 7 Mõtle sellele, mis ma ütlen! Küll Issand annab sulle arusaamist kõiges. 8 Olgu sul meeles Jeesus Kristus, kes on üles äratatud surnuist, kes põlvneb Taaveti soost! See on evangeelium, 9 mille pärast ma kannatan kurja ja olen koguni ahelates nagu mõni roimar. Kuid Jumala sõna ei ole ahelais. 10 Seetõttu ma talun kõike äravalitute pärast, et ka nemad saaksid pääste Kristuses Jeesuses igavese kirkusega. 11 Ustav on see sõna: Kui me oleme surnud koos temaga, siis ka elame koos temaga, 12 kui me jääme püsima vaevas, siis valitseme koos kuningatena, kui me tema salgame, siis salgab ka tema meid, 13 kui me oleme uskmatud, jääb tema ometi ustavaks, sest ta ei saa ennast salata. Õhutus olla kõlblik töötegija Jumalale 14 Seda tuleta neile meelde, vannutades Jumala ees, et nad ei peaks sõnasõda - sellest pole mingit kasu, see vaid hukutab kuulajad. 15 Püüa hoolega osutuda Jumala ees kõlblikuks töötegijana, kel pole tarvis häbeneda, kes tõe sõna kuulutab õigesti. 16 Labastest tühijuttudest hoidu aga eemale! Nende rääkijad ju lähevad aina kaugemale jumalakartmatuses 17 ja nende sõna levib otsekui vähktõbi. Nende seast on Hümenaios ja Fileetos, 18 kes on kaldunud kõrvale tõest, öeldes, et ülestõusmine on juba toimunud, ning rikuvad ära mõnede usu. 19 Ometi püsib kindlana Jumala seatud aluskivi, millel on see pitser: „Issand tunneb omi” ja „Ülekohtust taganegu igaüks, kes nimetab Issanda nime”. 20 Aga suures majas ei ole üksnes kuld- ja hõbeastjaid, vaid neid on ka puust ja savist - osa auliseks, osa autuks tarbeks. 21 Kui nüüd keegi end puhastab neist vigadest, siis ta saab auliseks astjaks, pühitsetuks ja peremehele kasulikuks, valmiks igale heale teole. 22 Põgene noorusea himude eest! Taotle õiglust, usku, armastust ja rahu nendega, kes Issandat appi hüüavad puhtast südamest! 23 Aga sõgedad ja kasvatamatud arutlemised lükka tagasi, teades, et need tekitavad tülisid. 24 Issanda sulasel ei ole tarvis tülitseda, vaid ta olgu lahke kõikide vastu, osav õpetama, valmis kannatama kurja, 25 kes tasadusega kasvatab vastupanijaid selleks, et ehk Jumal annab neile meeleparandust tõe mõistmiseks, 26 ja et nad kaineneksid ja pääseksid lahti kuradi paelust, mis on püüdnud nad oma tahtmise valda.

If we could get all the battles that napoleon did, that would be cool to get this in total war..

450.000? More like 600.000

Which mods were used for this video?

Man what mod did you use?

What mod did you used? I'm amused

The morale of story; Never enter deep into enemy territory with only 3 weeks ration. Never dream of easy and quick victory against Russia. Never conquered Moscow without secured access to nearby territory with supplies, garrison, and leave no room for the enemy to flank. In short, Advance slowly with full stomach, and prepare for battle of attrition. Play safe.

Love the game too Total War😂

Vive La Grande Armée Et Son Empereur. Willy

The grande army fired more than 60.000 rd. Of cannon ball.according to french soldiers claim that the russian casualties was appalling and horrendous.

for some reasons people always pronounce "Bag-gra-tion" but his name should be pronounce as "Ba-gra-ti-on"

there is nothing we can do

WON THE BATTLE LOST THE WAR ??.

Didn't any of these brilliant generals ever send out scouts on horseback? Seems like they just blindly marched forward all the time.

Fatigued men ? Not tired men ?

During his disastrous Moscow adventure, 92% of Napoleon's men died from Typhus, contracted from Rat Fleas in Poland, not from contact with enemy fire.

1:56 Man, Napoleon wasn't just the best "commander" of his age, he was arguably the greatest GENERAL in history!

my version of total war napolean is ah..a little different

what carnage they were authentic kamikazes

napoleon should of commit his reserve not because it was right because all those reserves (guard troop) all end up dead anyway on the great winter retreat.... so the lesson here is never save your best troops for a better time cause there might not be a better time

The french lost their best soldiers in russia just like what hitler did in russia
