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).

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.

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.

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?

@AN-nt3uv7 ай бұрын
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.

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?
