Im a busy dude with running a flooring business and I have 4 kids. I used to game a lot and Bannerlord used to be my favorite. Now that i can not game, i do have the time to watch your videos in the evenings. I Can Not Tell you how much it means to me when i see one of your videos come out. Thank you keep it up!

I love when apollo talk about things other than gaming

I suffer from a lot of mental health problems. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for bringing attention to this problem for all my fellow people who suffer from mental health problems just to let you know I know you’re pain brother.

I love that after watching you since 2015 you have not changed, I do hope you reach a million by this year, you deserve it.

These videos help me cope with my anxiety and depression, thanks for being my therapist

Love me some Sopranos "And the Romans, where are they now?" "You're lookin at em, asshole"

This conflict became a full-blown World War and Battania is such a threat to the Empire that the North and the South ended up uniting against you; It is a great challenge for your army (which little by little is accumulating casualties of veteran troops). Regarding the Engineer, I read in a comment from the last video that if you put the Engineer in a city and take him back, then he will let you put him in his corresponding position in your army, although you should also try to remove them all and put them back; also remember to change his helmet (the battles won have left you with several good helmets to put on one of them).

You should use your horse archers as a bodyguard so that you survove the entire battle all of the time

Road to a million apollo, we can see the finish line

29:53 The Great Battle of Zeonica! Brenin Inveth's most admired City besieged by over 16K Southern and Northern Imperial Soldiers. I hope this City stands against the ferocious hordes... Battanian Empire Vs Northern and Southern Empires!

Always love these play throughs. Only thing you need to do is recruit while leading an army. You’d have 100+ more in your army if you’d hit up 5-6 villages.

Apollo ngl ur current equipment kinda sucks having a sword that can one shot anyone is crucial, because if you cant kill horse archers in one shot they have time to shoot even more. And considering you dont smith you might need to scour the land to find op weapons. Although if you do smith it is much easier.

When apolo says to the enemy to get out of here, then he later runs them down. Enemy: "this request seems conflicting"

Apollo brother big armies pls like 1k+ Also idk much but from what I've noticed they are gonna give you a settlement every 2-4 settlements captured so might as well take the city when you have option rather than having to accept random castles

Dude i get so excited when i see your bannerlord videos come up.

Hey Apollo, thanks for talking about mental health issues. As one of your older viewers I can say, that this can also hit much later in life out of the blue. When you have kids, thoughts developing in these situations might trigger issues too. To Bannerlord: There will be a perk with bows, that you can use all of them from horseback. Get then the Noble longbow. Also, I sometimes split my infantry in two groups to create tactical advantages with the terrain, like flanking or such. Just give it a try. Edit: You got that perk, my bad.

Whenever you drop a video in this series I immediately throw it on while I hit the gym. So know that mental health talk track is delivering immediate results. Love your channel Apollo!

Apollo I’m loving the videos and thank you so much for being consistent! Also, try to enact the policy called Royal guard, it’ll allow you to hold +60 troops if I’m not mistaken. Keep it up!

Break the stalemate Apollo!!!

Fun video Apollo. Some amazing battles and the hilarity as a horse archer against those cav units. LOL

Brenin has to be some sort of descendant of Elongus Dongus! He has defied armies and taken cities that have out numbered and at times, even out gunned him, and he still comes out on top! FOR EDWARD!!!

Apollo you are the best I enjoy your commentary a lot as well the all episodes,keep them coming.

I miss the war score meter at the top. I hate not knowing how the war is going

The Battle of Zeonica: ( Middle-Late Campaign of the Establishment of the Great Battanian Empire ): 29:52 Messenger reports Brenin about the Southern Empire besieging Brenin's personal City of Zeonica during an expedition against the City of Jalmarys under control of the Northern Empire. 30:10 Brenin's Elite Army arrives at Zeonica and realises it is under seige by over 16K soldiers, with just over 500 Battanian soldiers in the Garrison of Zeonica. Brenin tactically decides to sneak in to help the defenders. 31:00 until 31:25 Bombardment Phase: Southern Empire bombards the Great Walls of Zeonica. Seige Engines and Artillery constructed during this time. 31:22 until 33:26 Ambush Phase: United Battanian Calvalry Sally Out to destroy Seige Engines and gain extra time for defence preparations. 34:03 until 41:35 The Main Seige! 48:43 until 50:27 Second Bombardment Phase. 50:56 until 58:35 The Final Stand against the Imperial Invaders. Victorious or Defeated?

I'd just give those castles away honestly. Thanks for another episode!

Just found this out the other day you can purchase the raw supplies that corresponds to the workshop you own. To improve its performance and also produce more valuable items. Ex. Purchase tannery, buy and store hides in warehouse, and produce leather.

Apollo, if you want an advice, if you die early in a battle, please don't fast forward as we miss a lot of the action by doing so. Only fast forward if there's not a lot going on, but otherwise it's better to leave it.

When will you try to convince other lords to join your side? Guess with Brenin’s charm they would immediately fall in love with him:)

Apollo, about sieges: Yes, the latest update removed the immidiate attack after ambush, which makes sense. That means, in order to destroy their equipment you might need many ambushes during a siege. There, the grind came back in. But the attackers only try one major attack. When they lose that one, it is over. By that i once defeated a 2k army with just killing 56 and wounding 200 or so. They still had many more men, but the game mechanics let them surrender.

For the Battanian Empire!

You should put in the diplomacy mod back on. I have had no problems with it through my last campaign and so far so good on my current one.

Biggus would be proud!!!

I like your videos always at the start of a video from now! If not... I'll forget it 🙈😉

39:23 The movie you're thinking of is Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Quite a good film.

Long time mental health suffer been to the point where i neally took my life and still not ok but ty fro bringing this up

57:05 That was some good Legolas-style archery moments right there, holy crab, that's really cool 😂🤣

The fact he just won that Zeonica defense... that was legit bruh, nice.

5:55 Welp, you know what they say, lads: "Only men can understand what men want and need." Which is an overstatement, of course, since there are ladies who can understand us quite well as well, but you get what I'm saying.

The best advice I heard for mental health is the gym. I know some people don’t like it but it’s like chemicaly activating shit in your body. Like working out legs stimulates testosterone which when boosted makes you feel really really good

I like how you just left in the countdown for when you restarted the Clips plus also I’ve been watching you for years now or whatever and I didn’t even know you had a wife well, I probably knew I just didn’t remember I watch you on and off but yeah, this has been a fun campaign

thats pretty swell has finally COMEBACK YESSSSSS (and apollo I know what u mean cuz if we young men open up about depression and feelings we are told to suck it up cuz we men but if it was a girl they wuld sayiss just a girl).

Yo, think I've figured out how to fix the problem with the Engineer. I put them in a city and then put them back in my party. Didn't need to leave or give it time or anything. Immediately was able to select them for Engineer role. Hope that helps!

I hope you make a Warhammer 3 video

Apollo you know, when this Campaign ends, can you do an extra video where you put the couple of best battles we had overall? The best battles we had so far: .Part 2: Castle defence against Vlandia, and you are captured .Part 19 ( I think ): Defending a Sturgian Raid at a Village, where you first decide to put your archers into two groups, and they all get killed/wounded .Part ( Something): The Bridge Battle against Sturgia and you get around 50 intact survivors being outnumbered .Part 28 ( This video ): The Whole Battle of Zeonica, which includes both seiges, but merging them and making them look like a whole single seige And then you can include other epic battles you want, and from the future of this Campaign too. It's a good idea, right?

Yes! TY for the upload, love the series.

Bro had 3000+ influence but didn't rally an army in to defend Zeonica... he better win this 🤯

castles can't rebel but they do cost you tons of money when they have low loyalty as the bound villages make hardly anything and the progress on builds in the castle stops as construction decreases due to low loyalty as well.

apollo i hope you comment as you have been my favorite youtuber for almost 10 years. i love every videa you do. It just a shame you never finished alot of these types of videos. I liked the 3 kindoms one alot becuase i love the china history. Wished you playes more of it or shogun

Great video apollo!

The more enemy noble prisoners you have the more money you’ll receive when suing for peace. Ransoming them for little over 2000 denars doesn’t give much in comparison.

Love this game

Thanks!

Thank you Apollo!

57:05 POV: a mounted fian champion

You should make a small platoon of horse archers that just follow you at all times making you alone a dealy force on the battle field.

If you run off steam try deleting your shader cache to fix the lag. I did that for another game and it fixed it.

Hey Apollo love the videos you should really try to get some more lords from other nations to yours

Apollo weird request but please could you turn up the amount of bodies on the ground, we’ve had some really epic battles this serious but we never get to see an aftermath because they despawn so quick.

Making some tea for this. Yorkshire red.

Great job Apollo!

PA I have many words for you my good man. LOVE THE CONTENT! Keep it up! I do have game suggestions. One star wars: empire at war and or Stellaris. Anyways thank you sir, have a great day!

Apollo you can give some of your food to the city of Zenoca so they can hold much longer

You can press f6 for sergeants to take command they have been improved recently and don’t charge

15:30 . . . Now I'm just itching to have enough money to buy Bannerlord, because this reminds me of the Rangers in one of the novel series that I love, like it just looks so *goddamn cool!*

16:00 having the high ground is somtimes a self settled trap ...read about the battle of Formigny...

You should absolutely deck out your companions and yourself. keep your personal weapons theyre hella good

Thx for the episode❤

Apollo if you don’t want your castles you can just give them to your companions I think

to a million we go

Apollo, empire is strong but aserai is getting stronger day by day, maybe it will be the biggest war instead of the empire. Aserai almost conquered whole of Khuzaits

When loyalty drops too low the construction stops. It's still a balance even at castles.

They changed the ambush in the latest update so it doesn't force them to attack anymore, sucks but also is probably more realistic.

you should take all the prisoners then sell them after the battles in your cities you get loads of cash for it and level up ur rogue good perks

Yessss

Swing batter batter is from Ferris bueller day off …

I'm 54 and follow your channel, keep talking, I have severe depression, and know how it is

So idk how it is on pc but on new gen consoles you can change a setting that allows more troops to appear in battle but at the cost to frame rate I think you should look into what that setting is on pc so fights and battles are better

You have so many militia... i think you should garrison them

I know what you mean be men being just a number these days. Every time I hear somebody say that, I watch one of those "Reject Modernity, Embrace masculinity" videos.

Apollo what are your thoughts on the realm of thrones mod?

Dude you have to walk around your towns. To kill rebels ör gangs to increase security and loyalty.

I feel that peak bannerlord end game grind is fast approaching. Use that 1 mil to recruit some enemy Lords?

hi mate hope your doing good

Ayy... Hi apollo

❤️

so sad to see your skill declining and losing DOUBLE the amount of troops in your second battle...

Please get a longer sword

HOW DID THE HORSE GET INTO THE BUILDING😭😭😭

yo have you watched reformist

i now that 1000 likes is 1 hour but can you du like every 5 video is 2 hours long or every 10 video is 2 hours long if you want

Can you go back to third age I watch the old videos a lot me and my brother love them

Apollo please make a new ntw vid please

Why you dont getting new cities it is giving me mental health issues 😂😂😂😂😂😂

You need to sell your loot

Hi

Oof, the casual sexism is not it. Won't watch again.

I work with psychological handicaped people, I help them to work. And hey Apollo, you are doing very great! You have a great selfreflection! I watched that video of you too. Let me tell you, you make it really good out of your problems, I know that! 🫂😊

Love this game

❤
