If you use agents you will deal with the elite hunic armies for more turns (because attila is not avaliable to hit him in battles while hurt) and you must find Attila through the map again while you deal with their armies.

There is one strategy I've seen that makes dealing with Hunnic armies a little more manageable, and it's actually very similar to the strategy you used for the Mongols in Medieval II: using the defensive stance for an army creates something much like Medieval II's forts, and in that fort you pack the best siege equipment you have, usually giant onagers. When the battle begins, position whatever regular troops you've got defensively at the encampment's entrances and use the onagers to hammer away at the Huns' general from the safety of your fort.

It took quite much time to find the proper tactics, create armies of horsemen with javelines and finally defeat them. I actually don't use javeline units, that's why first I couldn't do anything against them. The difficulty was also BC-s regional recruitment system. You can recruit units only from their historical regions. Most part of my armies that faced with Rajputs in the beginning were Arabic, Afghani and other mercenaries. generally much weaker than my original troops.

"Chaos is not hard to deal with" when the game first launched they were a nightmare, but ironically CA completely nerfed Chaos by putting the Beastmen into the game. Beastmen aren't that hard to fight, but they work on the exact same mechanic as chaos (destroy cities to gain resources to buy troops) and they get their start much, much earlier than chaos. in the playthroughs i've done since the beastmen launched, they've generally swallowed half of what chaos would have by the time chaos shows up, which means chaos isn't as strong as the would be. The second part of my tactic for chaos (I played vamp counts) was to take over and fortify enough regions to keep a good bank, then raze an entire line of provences as a breakwater. between doing that, and the beastmen, chaos simply cannot fund itself into being a threat. it's armies are still really strong, but instead of dealing with 12 of them you're dealing with 6 at best, and you can bait them into traps where you can easily start killing them. chaos went from a nightmare to almost a joke.

I recently had a pretty convincing success against the Chaos by employing agents to Block Army their doomstacks, when you do that their armies disperse and are not close enough to support each other and you can pick them one by one via auto-combat by bringing 2 or 3 armies. You can even bait them, if you have two Chaos stacks next to each other, block one of the stacks, leave one of your armies a 70-80% marching distance from the other and when their turn comes, the Chaos army that's not blocked will attack your army but then you can withdraw and on the next turn attack the isolated army with two armies of your own and just auto. 1v1 auto-combat rates you pretty poorly, however two armies vs a chaos stack can outright destroy it with losing only like 10-15% of the troops, that can be replenished in a turn or two.

I fought the Mongols when I was using my third ruler, I were playing as Holy Roman Empire and had more soldiers than them, but thease soldiers were spread throught all my territories and I could only take a small fraction of them to fight the Mongols. That were rough, my heir had a really bad time trying just to hold them and stop the advance of their troops, and when my king arrived with his special army (a lot of my best knights trained for years only for this battle) he quickliy died with the attack of a canon (I had very bad luck) and his army lost his moral and were compleetly raped. So I had to fight only with my previous heir (the new king now) and his weaker army... No joke, I am sure they had 10x my number of soldiers, at least... But I managed it, I used some type of Blitzkrieg, I attacked one flank of their army, where there were generals more separetad from all the other generals, and than the other flank, and the other... with time I were able to weak them so much that my new king could kill them all on a last battle. Sadly he died after that, for his age, but he wasn't the last king's son anyway, probably even older than him. In the end I won and lost only one city (a city that I basically left behind in order to have time ro organize my troops), but that were rough. That were rough body.

Because if you don't deal with them in the early game, they will spam castles and armies. It is a slog to get threw all of it. If you start on the other side of the map, your screwed. Oh yeah did I forget to mention that they have several geishas and assassins? It also doesn't help that the ai in shogun 1 is actually decent and wont easily be cheesed. And that unit control in shogun 1 is garbage (and you cant choose how your troops are deployed while attacking in a field battle).

In Rome II: Total War, I would say the Desert Kingdoms are the hardest challenge after they have gained access to their best units. Particularly Kush with their 20 armor penetration damage high tier infantry, and Masaesyli with their Numidian Noble Cavalry and Desert Legionnaires. Nabatea and Saba are also not to be underestimated. All this especially if you are using Better AI Recruitment and More Aggressive AI mods together like I currently am. Nabatea and Masaesyli are my favorite factions now, and I use an All Factions Auxilia mod to gain access to Kush's insanely high damage infantry. I don't even use Sebidee's unit mods or any unit mods now, just Auxiliaries. The game is complete with just that, in my opinion

The second wave came, getting rid of a few of the buffer zone states - I let my allies lose territory rather than fight the Huns myself. Now I’ve watched this vid, I’m convinced I’ve made the right decision, I don’t want that smoke!

From what I found in my playthroughs, the WRE has less issues than the ERE dealing with Huns if you play a bit of diplomacy and consolidate before Attila becomes of age. The main feat is protecting yourself from the migrators (basically destroying the Ostrogoths and trying to stop the Suebi as early as possible as the have the bad habit of going towards Africa). Once this is done, and manage to keep the empire intact you have so much money that you can pay off the Huns as much as you want and delay them from coming. Eventually they will declare war when Attila is of age, but by then you will have like 12 armies in Illyria waiting

Tokugawa in TW:S2. You start at war with the Oda, who are the strongest clan early game, your starting province isn't great (even though it's not bad) your clan Traits are completely useless and you start as Vassal, meaning you cant declare Wars, can't allie with other clans, lose a big portion of your money every turn and the Imagawa (clan you're vassal of) can drag you into multiple wars with pretty strong clans. Furthermore, your special unit isn't that good
@SorenToKeiran-Murasaki
5 жыл бұрын
Hattori and Uesugi are even worse. With the Tokugawa, all you need to do is bribe the Oda army (doesn't work on legendary iirc) or wipe it out in the first turn. Then you march to Owari (one of the richest provinces in the game) and take it. Then you put your Metsuke in Owari and replenish your losses. Once you have done that, simply wait for other factions to declare war on you (you can also bait them by leaving Owari undefended). Ironically, the higher the difficulty the easier things get, since factions will be more likely to declare war on you. Just fight all you neighboours that dare to go at war with you and expand into Kansai. By being a vassal, you will not have to worry about your western front, since the Imagawa usually don't go at war with the Hojo and the Takeda (their only neighbours) and they don't betray you, unless you trigger Realm Divide. If someone ever manages to get to the Imagawa territories or if some of their neighbours declares war on you and wipes them out, you'll kill two birds with one stone: you are now an independent faction and you have two more provinces to expand into. Once your position in Japan is consolidated, just play as you would with any other faction. For your army, just spam Ashigaru and, optional, light cavalry in the early-mid game. In the late game add some samurai tier cavalry, if you want. Never use Samurai, Warrior Monks or siege units. That's basically how you win in legendary with the Tokugawa and, despite their shitty "bonuses", they're not particularly hard, not even at the start of your campaign. The Hattori and the Uesugi on the other hand...

@@thatoneguynextdoor8794 The Usegi are one of the worst faction in the game (the third worst, to be precise: the first and the second are the Hattori and the Tokugawa respectively). Their bonuses are crap, except for the one that increases the monk success chance, which can be put to sume use. The trade income bonus is negligible, since you make most of your trade income via sea routes, and you don't want to trade via sea, because it will make you discover more clans, and the more clans know about you the more factions are likely to declare war on you. The boost to their warrior monks sounds good in theory, but is bad in practice. Warrior monks are among the worst units in singleplayer, because they are not cost-effective, since they take two turns to recruit, not to mention their insane upkeep cost (even when reduced by the Usegi's bonus) and all the kokus and time you have to invest in order to be able to recruit them. The Usegi also start with a vassal, which is more of a con than it is a pro, because more clans will be able to declare war to you in the very early game. Lastly, their starting province is shit: it is large, so it will take more times for your armies to move within it; and it also borders many other clans, which means that you will be prone to multi-front wars. And wherever you expand on Honshu, there are no easily defensible provinces you can fortify. Infact, you'd be better off abandoning Echigo entirely and going for Sado (whose proximity to Echigo is the only thing that saves the Usegi from being utter shit and having the worst start). Once you take Sado, you should conquer the Mogami and the Date and then expand to western Japan. Thus, I would dare to say that if a clan has so many flaws and it forces you to expand in such an unnatural way to be played effectively, one would not go out on a limb saying that it is one of the worst and most difficult factions to play.

Naginata warrior monks aren't bad either, since they are good in melee and have that ability (forgot its name) that weakens morale of nearby enemies. While it's true that it's a long way to warrior monks, and an expensive upkeep, it's not true that they don't pay off.

No they didn't. Did everyone forget Atilla himself was driven off by the Western Romans and Visigoths at the Battle of Chalons and neither the Huns or Mongols ever came back? The furthest west the Mongols went was the edges of Eastern Europe, where they were beaten back and driven off. The Huns never came back to Europe either, and the alliances that were formed to combat Atilla fell apart rather quickly and things returned to normal. The impact Atilla had was that there were more dead people and burned villages than normal.

Also, here's the thing with the Huns. If you're playing as a Roman faction, it's actually easier to to defeat the Huns. Here's the reason. The Romans (particularly the Western Romans) have the best ability to withstand their missile units because certain troops have a 100% block rate when they go into a stationary testudo. If their missiles are withstood, they become pretty weak after that. You also must position your troops in a circular or semi-circular form when fighting them on the battle field-- even better if you can position yourself at the edge of the map. When fighting in a settlement or city, you simply block off the choke points into the center. This even works when you've got two full stacks against you and your garrisons are beefed up at the choke-point settlements (if you play the Roman factions correctly, consolidating your empire into a bottle-necked version of itself where only certain settlements can be attacked, and beefing up your garrisons in those). I disagree with your point on complete annihilation in battle. While it's true if they aren't annihilated in battle and instead recruit crap mercenaries, they also recruit more of their own units again anyway, and in the process, their remnants will continue to attack you even afterward. If you annihilate them, yes, they'll respawn, but they'll respawn waaaaaaay far away in the east where they'll have to fight their way back to get to you again, as opposed to simply recruiting on the spot when they're right next door to you after being defeated, and also causing your garrison or army that just fought them the inability to replenish. But still, I see what you're saying concerning your strategy; I think your strategy would work very well! Just in my own experience, though, I find my strategy very efficient. Cheers for this list!
@1:31 Holy shit, there's nothing like a good face-smash from the nostalgia bat to remind you of what you're missing. There used to be unit stances in Total War games. There once was a time in Total War when your front line of Spearmen could form a Shield Wall to counter Cantabrian Circles of Mounted Javelins. When Mounted Archers could fire Parthian Shots into anyone you send after them. When a wedge of Heavy Cavalry could be stopped dead by a unit of pikes in a hedgehog formation. When your archers could put down anti-cav stakes in front of them. We used to even have the ability to turn flaming arrows on and off, or even switch to whistling arrows, to waste on the impenetrable hide of a unit in a turtle formation . Now we have Wedge formation for a couple of Heavy Cav units and... that's it? I guess Fire Whilst Moving is the new Parthian Shot. Hell, there used to be ARMY formations, too.

Go for it, Attila is a GREAT tw game, the comparison with tw empire is out of place. It is hard to explain to someone who hasant played it, but i will try. Attila has a different atmosphere that is found nowhere in any other tw game, the ai is extremely intelligent and annoying, unlike the braindead ai of rome 2 upon launch. The game itself is vey well done, the story, the cutscenes, the units, the tech trees, and playing western rome in attila is a unique experience that will make you tear your hair out in despair, but feels very good if you manage to survive. A major difference between attila and other tw titles is that the game is focues on survivel, not empire building. The whole game is out to get you and your allies from turn 1, diplomacy playes a major role, you are always on edge, a stroke of bad luck like a plague, a horde showing up on your borders or a rebel general declaring independece will keep you almost paranoid haha. It takes some time to get adjusted to game because its so fucking hard, its nothing ike any other tw i've ever played, the ai WILL defeat you, and you will nned to restart campaigns constantly. The time period its set is during the fall of the roman empire, so everything is gowing up in flames, the empire is inefficient and corrupt, you are surrounded by enemies, and will have to plan ahead or the ai will crush you. The environment changes as the game progresses, the soil becomes infertile causing you food problems permanently, unlkike in rome 2, the way infraestructure works actualy makes sense, the buildings looks practical and nice, and temples wont be giving you -18 public order like they do in rome 2. attila also has an auxilia system for rome, you can integrate barbarian units into your armies from friendly hordes, or if you are really desperate, you can give territory to a barbarian faction that will become subservient. Attle is a very special tw, with tons of interesting and unique mechanics that dont exist in any other tw. Even if you play as one of the minor barbarian factions, your life wont be any easier because soon the huns show up and europe turns into a mess, even if you are a good strategist and strong, the huns will wipe the floor with your face Seriously, give it a try, you wont regret it.

Rivalry is a player only mechanic and works only for marauder units. All AI factions have 80% attrition resistance and chaos warrior main hordes always travel in groups of at least 3. If they're wounded and lost units, they stop and replenish almost instantly in high corruption provinces.

I'll never forget my first WH2 play, standard boring Empire. I had taken all the lowlands all the way to the eastern mountains (including the Vampire lands), and had allied with the Dwarves. Now it was getting to be "that time" (Chaos time!) in the Campaign so I was being a bad ally, not helping the Dwarves...they had gotten pushed back to a SINGLE settlement by I think it was a confederation of the Greenskins...upon defeating the majority of my Chaos foes, I went to check on the weee Dwarves, expecting they were still turtled up in their last camp...They had rallied and pushed back the Greenskin confederation to almost the entire southern edge of the map LOL
