A bit of info as to why lusitani was sitting back. It was because theyre lightly armored and skirms would EASILY mess them up. So Macedon (myself) goes in first to soak up ammo and distract the skirms. Thats what the side street push was for against the perioikoi spears.
Why do you like attacking in column formation? Really well played man
Yeah do u attack in column for a strategy or just personal preference
@@mack626 It was so when they throw their pila, it hits less people.
@@harveyevans3719 I lose less men to pila.
Well played
“Spartans! What is your profession?!”
“Knights of apollo”
Billy Harrington be winking
Body builders!!!
Dying from Celtic warriors
“Wall”
That spartan "push" at 11:00 looked so much like a push-through. Like the player kept telling the unit to attack that thorax swordsman.
I think that was just the unit trying to get into formation. The game should prevent a unit from getting into formation if it is in combat but this is Rome II we are talking about.
100% a pushthrough to stay in arrrow tower cap zone... made me so mad watching that bc I know it was on purpose
@@KaiserFlash No, he kept clicking attack, you can see it clealry.
Go to a custom battle and keep clicking attack, you will see how a unit reacts and recognize it easily
Another great siege! Well done as always Apollo
Can't wait for the Crimson Chickens to join the fight (And win)!
Just watching your replays has done wonders in my own campaign. 10/10 thanks for years of content
I just bought Rome II on the summer sale because of Apollo, can finally apply the techniques that he shows in his vids!
multiplayer is a chaotic mess right now because they removed in-game text chat
@@LegionareXWhy did they do that? I thought my game was glitched lol, it’s unplayable without chat
@@mack626 apparently it's something to do with licensing in other countries? I'm not entirely sure. I know there were some issues regarding the lack of text chat regulation.
@@mack626basically there’s a British law requiring game chat to be moderated. They are a British company, so they just removed chat instead of coming up with a moderation system.
Same
So as for the column, when a unit opens fire on an enemy, each entity seems to target the one nearest to it. So by having a column formation, it gives the defending unit a smaller target to shoot at, therefore minimizing casualties. I could be wrong, but this generally how missile units work in warhammer, so I imagine it's the same for Rome 2
Let's gooo! Got my snacks and drinks ready to go! What a great way to spend lunch on a Friday
The amount of bodies in that choke point
GORILLA BOOOOOIIIII'S! Woooo! Lets go! Look at that dastardly Macedon player. Truly a chad.
Love it Apollo always get great views
13:10 Spartans being sitting ducks... you nailed it Apollo... read about the battle on the island of Sphacteria in 425 BCE where the spartan hoplites get recked by archers slingers and javeliners of the Athenians ! 🥷
Wooo tournament!!!! Love the vids keep it up!!
Apollo once again as the best TW commentator ever.
Great game again by the Gorilla Boyz, just like you said defenders shouldn't have played that much under the towers, amd should have chosen better checkpoints to hold. Gorilla Boyz sure will be a tough contender. Can't wait to see YOUR team's games, this format is awesome, I love it :))
Just to clarify we thought that a VP camp is forbidden but it's not on small maps that's why we didn't Fall back
Unfortunately we learned later on that we actually can camp the vp and fall back after the match ended, shame we learned that so late
Yeah I think with 5 units max
@@PixelatedApollo1 thats the point, I was Sparta in this one, and Gorilla told us that there is no cap to how many units we could keep on the VP
Let's go another day for war and taking cities. I love your videos man❤
Using the Ardiaei together with Sparta is a good idea, but if you don't use their missiles to cover the hoplite front, it's useless and that's what happened in this game; With Sparta it is better to get a lot of Helot Slingers or Periokoi Peltasts units, a lot of Periokoi Hoplites or Spears and a few Spartan Hoplites as the last line of defense, since that way you will be able to take advantage of the money, having enough projectiles to cover you. The fact that the Lusitani have a +2 in the tournament is misleading, I know it's because they are a faction that can be easy to beat with projectiles, but if you know how to use them easily it could be a -3 or -4 due to their damage stats. Combat.
please keep doing this I love it!
Food always tastes the best when I watch your videos
Loving the tournament so far!
i like the column push at the first engagement. you allow your first unit to become enveloped by the enemy, only to then come and and start stabbing into the back of the envelopment with the next unit.
Love these videos bro
easiest win i've ever seen in this channel, great video keep it up!
Spartans !
they just refused to put them into hoplite wall and it hurt
Great attack! Only Hoplites on def is very hard but i love to see that much Jevi throws!
Great thanks Apollo 🎉
6:17 my man is fumbling under pressure 💀
Great vidio
Lets gooooo
Spartans could defeat me by the uncomfortableness of fighting them in their skivies. I would try to catapult pants before invasion
Appolo’s inner quagmire coming up with that gigity
I missed these videos
FIRE🔥🔥🔥
Ardiaei is a seriously good faction. I played a similar siege battle to this as an attacker and got wrecked by their missiles. That’s why they get less points for using them.
Both lusitani and sparta are best supporting or being supported. They both have a big weakness but what they do they do well.
The only good thing about the week would be Apollo UPLOADING REGULARLY (2 videos in a day or something just great)
Hey Apollo after this amazing tournament, are you interested in playing TW campaigns again?
I love your videos
Yooooooo SPARTA!!!!
I would have used the infantry differently. I would try to surround the isolated units and immediately get away from the tower
4:55 colonne formations for the assault is Napoleon Bonaparte's textbook ..... so genious?💂💂💂
Hey Apollo love these videos and I’m really sorry for asking but um what happened to bannerlord are you don’t with it
Ohhhhhh
actually, Sparta was never conqured by macedonia
Hi from Greece👋
Before 2k
Whumsars just seem very new to the game
APOLLO WHEN IS THE NEXT VIDEO OF FARTHEST FRONTIER
hyena lets gooo
Real Sparta had more than just hoplites
Apollo does Syn of the Dark Cloud have a CZcams channel?
Can you post the map names Apollo ?? 😅😅😅 thanks my man
why does marketableskills post a video of chrimson chicken i thought he is suppose to make videos about group D?
I am, those are just twitch VODs :)
its jsut a VOD from his stream, he does it always
Wow once again Gorilla boys impressive on the attack… Solid strategy. They ripped the walls to nothing. Took the towers and just grinned them done to nothing. Great use if range. These guys know this game. I’d like to see them in Rome 1… I know I could beat them in a pitch with Armenia… Their armored horse archers best unit in the game… Pepper with arrows then you have heavy cav to finish them off. Armenian Cataphract Archers best unit in Rome 1. I’ll massacre any force with a full stack within 2 Generals. Pitch of course. However Armenian has solid infantry too… I wish you would have a contest in Rome 1.
Chicken and watermelon
I LOVE YOU
Are you and your team going to steam live😊
