You playing Empire Total War: *ends turn*
AI Ottomans: *You will never reach the next turn*
F-22 tip for this glitch: use a fleet to blockade Bosporus strait which mean reveal near Istanbul. Ottomans units always freeze when too many small units walk stop walk stop near Bosporus.

In general how do you feel about the fall of Constantinople?
Bostancıbası was title or rank of that dude. Bostancı were guardsmen of palace. Baş means head so that guy was Head of Bostancıs. What an alien language we have :)
I like how the Ottomans were pioneers of gunpowder warfare and then these devs decided "lol nah they havent figured out how to use boomsticks yet."
Being pioneers of something and actually using said invention correctly are two different things.
The Ottoman Empire pioneered gunpoweder weaponry but never completely modernized their armies to European standards during the 18th century.
@@ra.n9482To a certain extent.
Good job listening to race propaganda traitor
@@ra.n9482yeah but the thing is, this is a game. And it was always a possibility irl. A player should have to option to modernize the army.
My crowning achievement may have been the game as Maratha where I took revenge on the British invasion by conquering the 13 colonies, giving them to the Iroquois and Cherokees, and after allying with both, just continually shooting up the attempted rebellions. The United States never formed because of some dudes in sweet hats riding elephants.

Lol it's nice to see someone else liking Empire the most. Especially seeing how much people hate on it. Not undeservedly so if we're being honest, but with a few rebalancing mods it can be really good. Plus it covers one of the more interesting time periods in history, at least in my opinion.
I didnt really like the building system change
Honestly, if the campaign AI wasn't completely fubar (looking at you, Sweden and Ottomans spamming one unit armies across straights), melee combat wasn't completely broken, forts didn't lag when a wall was breached, and the battle AI wouldn't randomly lock up Empire would be way higher on my favorite games list. I was kinda bummed they never really bothered to fix a lot of the issues, but that seems to be a recurring thing. Attila is still a great game that is terribly optimized and has weird issues like certain towns only having 3 building slots in total (when 95% of them have four)
I remember when I installed darthmod and picked a start date that had the US independent. At the end of the first turn the French offered an alliance, I turned it down because I didn't want to get dragged into a war, Britain then sent me an alliance that I refused as well. At the end of turn 2, they both allied with each other and declared war on me despite the fact that they both had "very friendly" opinions of me.
Then there were weird things like industrial buildings having no downsides for Constitutional Monarchies because they don't have a "lower class" listed in the public order.
I love Empire but I just wish it wasn't so evidently rushed to release and was never (significantly) patched afterward. As soon as Napoleon came out empire was never patched again if I recall correctly. I imagine a polished Empire would be very fun, even if it did have weird quirks like Spain and France being one province.
@@redbaronflyer8392 total war AI was never good
I think the hate is a bit out of proportion for the quality of the game. Expectations were probably higher. It's definitely a good game overall, worth playing, even if the ai is kinda crappy overall.
Herdan Rome 2 battle AI is shocking in a lot of maps. Bottles up in one spot etc.
I like the ottoman empire in empire, reviving sick empires is so fun administratively
i like starting as a small nation and become really strong and take over the world in almost every stratgy game
@@imperialfront6366 yeah, really original
@@imperialfront6366 its more fun
Ottoman was still economically and militarily strong for much of the 18th century. They only truly became the "Sick Man of Europe" during the 19th century and beyond.
Hell I wish they did the empire total war's theather option for each section of the map. You know, like stitching together the campaigns in napleon total war. Iberia, Italy, Balkans, France, Germany, East europe, Russia.
So we could have more detailed maps with more cities without overloading the game engine.
India and Europe are actually connected
The Nova renaissance Britannia was good :/
lyrics on my channel to Polish cow CHECK OUT
@The Nova renaissance I get that but I don't care about "theather" persay, I want more cities&details on the map and the only way to achieve this is by making each region a theather like spain, france and italy into theathers of their own. There were way more cities on italy when playing tutorial of rome 2(only shows italy) and there were way more cities in gaul when playing caeser's campaign.
That's what I want. Whether that requires the title to be "empire" or whether it can be applied to all total war games.
I
want
more
cities

Hello ISorrow Just Wanted To Say I’ve Been Watching you’re channel for ages and just wanted to say thank you!
I never understood the problem people have with the naval combat in Empire/Napoleon. What do you think combat between sailing ships is supposed to be like?
Not boring. Naval battles in TW are boring most of the time. In real life, they are mostly a giant road blocks. Most of the only interesting things happen is when they almost reach land. Even the Pacific war, many of the US Navy goals are to destroy land bases.
"After Trafalgar, England secured the waves, and Napoleon ruled the continent" -English historian.
Empire Total war literally nuked my PC beyond repair. I tried every trick in the book to reboot it but nothing worked.
Absolutly legendary game; 10/10 would by a new PC again
Use an Ironside computer, duh
Empire total war challenge, play as the ottomans, keep your starting army but you can only recruit Musellims and Armed Peasentry
I’ve sort of did that. But only used those unit compilations for fighting in the American Theatre.
Play with Peasant Levy in Napoleon TW. Absolute chaos and fun
A good way to have OP Ottomans in empire is to make the two revolts needed to become a republic from the start. That way you can send your best army to India really early on and the revolts will give you some more troops to rebuild with.
Also drop the Barbary Pirates at start so you don't have everybody hating you because of them, but keep the Khanate. Take Ukraine and give it to the Khanate so they'll keep Russia in check, and then put that army on a boat and send them to hit the Maratha.
Empire is all about taking India since that's where the most riches are and if you don't take them out the Marathas will become monsters with those riches anyways. I like to take that settlement on the bottom right with the fort to start from and don't build any naval units until the Maratha are wiped out, then take out the Mughals.
Don't push east into Persia until you take out Georgia and that other nation in the Caucasus because they will always declare on you when you push east first. Don't worry about the crappy Russia provinces above them as they aren't worth taking and Russia can't do anything since they are fighting the Khanate and Sweden.
Once you've taken everything to your east you are the superpower and everybody wants to trade with you as you take out whoever you like in Europe. The only way they don't want to trade with you is if you take a bunch of land in the European theater early on and piss everybody off with the AE, or if you keep the Barbary pirates since they're at war with everybody.
Going Republic is always worth it since you can have plenty of schools without worrying about public order.
Constitutional Monarchy is way better imo. Less diplomatic penalty. Make sure you get a 5+ star leader and put together the best cabinet in the world.
I’ve missed meme intros so much

EMPIRE Total War in a nutshell: Give me your capitol and we shall have peace
*20 turns later*
Blow a few holes open in their capitol defensive walls, flatten the inhabitants with mortars and send in the cavalry to clean up the rest. Still love it though. Over 1000 hrs played.
Help.
i played the game where i could not have my army costs greater than my navy costs.
it forces you to play aggressively at sea, whilst very defensively and strategically on land (aside from carving out parts of the americas and/or india).
playing on med/lower unit sizes makes the naval aspect more manageable tho.
@@indieWellie I did something similar in Darth Mod. (But with Zero Navy.) Poland-Lithuania with *only* 3 Army stacks allowed. I also decided to fight defensive wars And *only* take 1-2 territories
This lead me into a 20+ turn war with Prussia/Courland/Austria. I took only Silesia, East Prussia.
I had to stop because Russia defeated Sweden and I knew was going to declare war on me next.
Play United States campaign.
Maratha Confederacy: Declares war and tries to land troops near New York.
30 turns later.
Half of India, including Maratha capital, is FREED.
We need Empire II but with again atleast almost whole world to conquer
and also add in china and japan
No. You don't want that. In fact, that was exactly E:TW's problem.
@@hydra7427 No, I want a big map! Those are the best
at least a Victorian age total war between 1937 and 1905 .....won't get that until like after CA is done milking Warhammer
Completely agree with you on Empire: Total War. Despite the endless frustrating bugs, and nearly endless tedious loading, there's something endlessly enjoyable about this Total War in particular that keeps me coming back to it as well... Maybe it's just because I played the demo when it came out and I could barely run it, so coming back to it now with an overpowered PC is sweet, but it's just a very enjoyable and addictive game even today (that just happens to be glitchy as hell.)
Brroooo I made an Ottoman Campaign playthrough last night too, at the same time(almost) thats so weird bro good vid, enjoy your stuff dude
8:40 "bostancibasi" actually means "gardener" lol

Last time I played I started as one of the Indian factions. Took over all of Indian. Took Persia. Then went east by ship and took the native land in Texas. Then I took Mexico. Slowly moved into all of North America.

suleiman:too shade
"That's right baby, the school of poetry", no iSorrow, you aren't playing Vicky anymore!
Playing it since 2009, it was my first Steam game ever.
So glad to have it and still play it sometimes.
It can be really fun to play and challenging.
I agree about the fact that it's the best TW ever done.
Opening Moves:
Trade Egypt(and other nearby provinces) to 13 Colonies for New York.
13 Colonies gets absorbed by Great Britain, thus Egypt breaks free.
Re-invade Egypt.
Profit.
You can also trade Egypt and other Regions for New Grenada ot Bengal and re-conquer given territories later on.
I found irregulars you be too awesome, especially early game. They shoot much quicker than line infantry and the enemies runs away fast
I still love coming back to ol'faithful Empire total war.
It will still always be the "I accidentally conquered half of Europe" Total war to me.
8:08 "and now it's Savoy's turn of being slapped with my big cannon"
The meme intos are Back!
That ironside intro gives me warm tingling feelings
Finally someone who shares my love for Empire: Total War
I think it would be cool to see a run as the United Provinces since they aren't super strong in the early game but they have staring possessions in each theater and the elections add some potential comedy bits.
This is the happiest moments of my life. When ISP posts a video and the return of meme intros.
I don’t even play 90% of the games your videos feature and yet here I sit, watching.
Relatable
Love this game I agree it's one of the best total wars. Thanks for the content!
I bought this in 2009 as a kid and then realized my parent's computer couldn't run it. Two years later I bought my own and sank a couple hundred hours into it. It's great fun.
The return of Ironside varriations, the best thing to come out of this channel ;)

Finally. Empire total war and meme intros. Making this channel great again.

Isp is by far my favorite CZcamsr. His videos are hilarious

Literally came back for this because i could tell it had meme intro from the mouse-over preview.
For me on ottomans I find the fastest way to peaceful playthrough win is severing ties with all client states and preferably declare war on barbary pirates, do that and give tech to a few nations and set up trade fast, the diplomatic penalty will go away by the time anything matters, building 3 universities in regions and build one pleasure building per territory and preferably work hard on converting everystate and convert other nations regions to make them unstable and easier to integrate after conquering. Taxes on moderate always and constantly cycling to better cabinet members/using gentlemen to boost research speed, I find keeping a token amount of troops in the border province of each neutral nation. The only random chance that is hard to avoid is spain / venice declaring war, I usually try for trade agreements or gifts/share tech
The monarchs are fun to mess with, if you researched all the enlightenment techs then dump all the techs with the most unrest stats and they there's a good chance they'll turn governments once or twice, I like to sack an enemies capital destroying all building and replacing them all with universities, AI doesn't destroy buildings, so I let them take it back and now they're constantly fighting a civilwar every 4 turns or so indefinitely
I'm not Turkish, but I am very happy about anything Ottoman related. They're an under appreciated culture. Ottoman poets were brilliant.
damn
Ikr
boi
EU4!!!! You could upset everyone and play Ottomans there too!
3:51 can't believe ISP missed that the venetian general's name was Assemani

Empire total war gang, hell yah, I love this game.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Very entertaining as always! 😊
Yes, more Total War content from ISP! ;D
Thought you had abandoned total war, just as I got into it. thank god
PRAISE ISORROWPRODUCTIONS FOR GETTING ME INTO MULTIPE FRANCHISES I NOW PLAY DAILY!
I can really say you are my favorite youtuber now.
intro gags are back? YES!! Fucking love them
I actually loved this game.
ISP cough twice if Ironside is holding your family hostage

I love empire total war the most too!
Hell yeah! All hail the Ironside intro memes!
Hey another great vid nice into
"Your mission is to infiltrate the jungle and capture all the monkeys"
I still love empire total war with darthmod Ive had a Sweden game i hop on and play every now and then
Very nice, great videoman game, good gampleying👍
"I like to think the cannon is the actual general" hahahaha
Really good one) I would like to see more action in the New World next time maybe
Maratha uniting India is actually really powerful. They destroyed a russia campaign of mine when they came up the same route with dozens of doomstacks
This is a timeless classic. Going back even more, have you enjoyed Empire Earth 2 at all? I absolutely loved the game and it seemed like everyone else hated it.
You need to do more empire total war, it’s the best total war out there
That intro actually startled me.
Now this is EPIC
Last time I was early, Ottoman were still beylik
I remember playing the Dutch on day one of release on the initial release version of the game and crashing a fluyt into a frigate and breaking the enemy frigate.
CA patched that. I haven't forgiven them for that yet.
I have waited for a total war video for sooooo long!!
omg thatss intro and that memorybl game and OTTOS

ISP solves the janissery coup in the very first battle, lol
Ha yes...My favourite game, Empire Total War! (Actualy not a total joke, I realy like the game, what a pleasure to see mr.ISP play it)
Yeah it's my favorite Total War too. I always wanted them to make Empire 2 with the engine from Fall of the Samurai, that would have been awesome.
Jizzeppi Assman, what a legend
DEPRESSION INTENSIFIES WE LOVE YOU ISP
YOU HAVE BEEN NEGLECTING GUGBUG FOR FAR TOO LONG, GUGBUG ANGRY
I´d like to see you play sweden in your next Total war game. Just think of all the memes you can make with meatball-shooting cannons.
the real Ottoman fun begins with the big unique mortars!
Oh ok, so that's why the Ottomans are short on guns in this game. They dumped it all into making grenades and ridiculously OP machine gun-cannons. Pretty good investment imo.
General cannoni, you are a bold one
Gotta love that intro
Watched the whole thing, wow great video. Please don't question the logic in that statement.
Empire total war is one if the best total war games
