To everyone who says i suck, you do not understand the purpose of what this video is about, its NOT about owning the enemy, its about showing all the possibilities this game offers, all ways you can die, all moves, etc....
So anyone who comments that i suck will get blocked, not because he is correct that i play "bad" in this video, but for not reading this video info before commenting!
One of my favorite 2 player games - i always played this with friends. -

This really brings back memories. I used to play this all the time on my A500!

[@SuperCokeStar]

me too

[@ChrisBSB25]

after the school i visit every day a friend and we played it, nice memorys :)

[@efe_aydal]

For the first time, a game where world of longplays play worse than me. Tip: Against the computer, just use the horsemen and ignore the rest. Quickly charge and slice all of them, starting from cannon. You never lose a battle, even with one horse against a whole army.

[@JonLovejoy]

I can't tell you how much I loved this game back in the day - bloody classic!

[@rodrigosimas1980]

Tears in my eyes... time simply flies... and it's been almost 30 years ago that I played this game thanks to a cousin of mine who had an Amiga 500 in the early 90's... Simple times that don't come back anymore

[@BladeDebord]

I absolutely loved this game when I was a kid. It probably helped that it was the only Amiga game I owned that worked consistently.

[@phillydavison]

OMG this game was my childhood xD

[@deathkult]

haha same here, so many hours playing this with my brother on Amiga!!

[@swedisheinherjer]

Childhood memories coming back... Thanks for uploading :D

[@nevillebloodybartos]

Thanks for up loading this, i spent many afternoons playing this with my mate when we were kids. The sounds bring back so many memories. You put a smile on my face today:) They should make this in to an App

[@fateless78]

one of my favorite games thanks for the upload, takes me back 20 years

[@Peridot1895]

this was my first game ever on the amiga 500. i had much fun playing it. it was very good. first day i played it in monochrome because i plugged the cable to the monitor in the wrong place. on the next day i tried again and was very happy to play it with colours^^

[@GotMoreCakes]

oh wow that reminds me i did the exact same thing with batman, I'd bought the batman amiga 500 pack and for much of the first day I played it in black and white, we were going to take it all back before realising what I'd done wrong.

[@Pitereczek100]

good story

[@bramtheblackpoolfan6922]

I LOVED this game!! One of my faves growing up!! Funny how I’ve just been playing red dead redemption 2 and how games have changed over time. Still, this had amazing playability and the thing about games back then, u could use your imagination (a bit like reading a book because you had limited data) and that’s why I loved these titles 💚 ps thanks for uploading

[@stunthumb]

This brings back some great memories - loved this game, especially playing with 2-players, while drunk. So many strategy games were boring as hell on the 16-bits, North and South made up for it.

[@Flangzor]

great job! all animations & sounds i loved back in the days are included in 1 vid

[@PA4KEV]

Always had great fun with this game! Great longplay, thanks for showing all the features! (except the train hijack)

[@Clandesdyne]

I used to play this game for hours on the NES. I always thought the fort and train levels were excessively unforgiving. It just moved too quickly. Another great longplay cubex55!

[@MichuOz]

Thanks for adding this video on youtube, It was my favourite game on amiga when I was a child. I didnt remember the title of this, but it was about 15 years ago.... I used to play it with my borther all the time, Thanks again for the great memories :)

[@roofdoubleflip]

wow so many memories. thanks for uploading

[@DefconSix]

Thanks so much for posting this. I've tried emulators and such but it's so good just to watch a nostalgic "movie" of old Commodore times. This game really got me into learning about the US civil war when I was a kid. So much so, I'm actually part of a civil war reinactmant group nowadays in the UK (they do exist over here!) Got the Kepi hat and jacket, yet to buy the horse and pants/boots yet though...

[@Rincewind1978]

my god - its been nearly 20 years since i last saw this! i used to love it and played it for hours! used to love the music sequences.

[@AndreasToth]

I had forgotten about this gem! The only strategy game of this type that I actually enjoyed.

[@AndreasToth]

[@rswpt]

[@MatthewDay]

I love this game! Takes me right back to my childhood! :-))))

[@pikewerfer]

[@placeholdername3206]

[@SCBiscuit13]

Well spent childhood :D

[@Haldirforpresident]

It was the first video game I played when I was a child! I was 6 or 7 years old. A fantastic moment!

[@GabriSnowboarder]

[@Haninski]

I love this game, thank you very much for Longplaying it!!!!

[@Oakenshield213]

[@anthonygibbs9245]

[@Colspex]

6:45 LOL, those three soldiers against a lonely rider. Tense and exciting like an action movie!

[@ivandegi2]

Thanks for the video! One of my favourite games ever!!

[@UnkleRenoGaming]

I love this game so much, thanks for posting the vid : )

[@adamsanter9385]

So many fond memories of playing this game with my brother

[@psychee1]

Ah, it's good to see this old game in action again :) Me and a friend used to design specific scenarios by cutting down units so only horses, riflemen etc remained.

[@airbusftw7063]

Empire Total War, 30 years ago! lol. I loved this game, especially due to the awesome sounds it made.

[@Andy-lz7kc]

Used to love this. Great video thanks

[@ShayningTV]

wow loved this game, great upload

[@schoolfilmer]

This looks awesome!

[@MrsPink00]

aw, tears came to my eye, when I saw this. still seems familiar after 15 years. The very first comupter game I ever played on my brothers amiga. I was 6 and didnt even know what it was about, but I thought It was amazing.

[@hellonpluto]

[@hercufles]

[@dbpaperclip]

[@gazojka]

[@SamuraiHonor]

played this game so much as a kid, love it. my new GF took me to a comic store and i bought some of comics, to fill up my collection ^^ im so in love with this all over again!

[@Satai80]

Ah... memories... One of the best games for Amiga. I also had hard times conquering fortresses or hijacking trains. :)

[@marccs1978]

I loved this game, many an evening was spent playing this. My favourite level were the bridge and river ones, knocking down the bridges as the enemy attacked. Great vid, pity he's a noob!

[@airbusftw7063]

WOW what memories, this is the most game I used to play on the amiga.

[@hm5y]

One of my favorite games, it is so fun to play :)

[@matielo90]

Soooo good memories with this game. Magic 1996-1997 :))))

[@UltraRebels]

I see, I was hoping it was something like that. Well, I'm kinda relieved to hear it, hahaha. Good luck with your gaming and thanks again for posting a video of this game :)

[@paskualu]

One of my greatest times on a videogame with a friend in the 2 players mode... Endless laughing !

[@treali]

OMG när jag var ungefär 6 år spelade jag och min kompis detta hemma hos honom! Kom aldrig ihåg vad det hette hittade av en slump när jag sökte på hugo! Vi använde diskett till det då... Det var tider det :D

[@PJAriz]

One of the Great Ones... a true Classic!

[@laetilara9444]

Oh waaaah 😮 my father played there for a long time in the evening with a friend. I still remember the sound effects of this game. I miss my amiga 500 my first console before megadrive

[@bccbcc3935]

Amiga 500 and Atari ST were COMPUTERS not consoles !!

[@HayTatsuko]

This game was so much fun, and so funny, too. Of course, I always played for the SOUTH to win. I love the victory message one gets when overturning history. :D

[@garrett156]

oh lord.....favorite.damn i forgot about this game.i loved it

[@TheDuesenberger]

I use to love to play this game with my friends when i was kid....still think its good fun.!!

[@littlestudiorecords2141]

One of my favourite games for the Atari st back in the day

[@cid76]

The trick that I used during my plays with A500 was to press quickly P (pause button) to obtain a slow motion assault so I was able to jump crates and above wall holes plus to launch immedaitely knives when enemies appeared from right at least for sergeant and captain dififculty, cause corporal was a straight run with near no obstacles (all too easy)

[@FaithTheSlayer]

I love this game one of my top favs and my 1# fav of all time on nes

[@MrRisn]

maaan i loved this game back in the days.. its so cool to see it again !!! :D wow, playing test drive on commodore, police quest... But anyone rembers that game where you were in a desert town and there were giant ants ?? it was soo exiting to play . a certain scary atmosphere

[@gertfee274]

Does somebody know how to retreat from battle? (Esc doesn't work for me.) Or how to not move with an army (on the map) if you don't want to move? Weiß jemand, mit welcher Tastenkombination man sich von einer Schlacht zurückziehen kann? (Esc funzt beim mir net.) Oder wie man mit einer Armee (auf der Karte) sich nicht bewegen muß, wenn man nicht will?

[@Uenbg]

I have to point out that that would be Lords of the Rising Sun being the predecessor of Shogun Total War. Look it up, another amiga game, that's where I remember the army banners (that slowly fill up as the armies grow, just like in Total War) from. I played this game more often though (Lords of the rising sun had a bug for me). More favorites: Defender of the Crown Centurion (absolutely awesome! And just difficult enough with those Parthians attacking at some point) Storm Across Europe Legends

[@viciousrape]

lol I wanted to say what nastyboyg said. but other than that, cool vid. you show everything that's interesting about the game. I didn't even know there was an amiga version of this btw, so double ty

[@andreehinas200]

Used to love that game... aaaw the nostalgia =)

[@eval_is_evil]

i played this game like crazy ! really great and fun game

[@apeiron1984]

man soooo cool I've played this game for so long when I was 12.... so much fun!

[@airbusftw7063]

This is the most game I used to play on Amiga XD! I simply loved it! Well at least I played it more then Empire total war :).

[@Amiga500_User]

Brilliant fun for two players!!!

[@thebes56]

This was a fun little game!

[@bennybannana]

Aaaaw, shit wiggah! This brings back memories!

[@TwoTribesGames]

Excellent! Thanks for the post!

[@Disthron]

I'd like to see a tutorial on how to play this game. It looks pretty cool, though I'm not sure how to do anything but move units around and fight.

[@darencooper]

loved this game remember getting frustrated by the forts and hijacking the train!!

[@shawncartwright]

One of my fav gamse when i was younger

[@madzen112]

So much fun with a friend

[@LZB100]

[@PornoLounge]

[@schutzemk2811]

i still have no idea how its possible to move the artillerie forward. sometimes it happens.

[@seventhflatfive]

I cried when I saw this video. Memories...

[@remmus64]

aww god...big brother had this on his amiga...it rockt so mutch,heck even my dad who more of a computer geek then a game geek played it and we had so mutch fun...good times.

[@MarcelSerbassen]

You said it - greetings from Germany, where I did play it the same time... feeling old,...

[@ollieduracell]

lol this game could have been over so much quicker if you really wanted to. admittedly i did find myself hoping you'd complete the fortress/train bits cause they were eff'in hard! legendary game

[@Daniel4646]

Suggested basic tactic in a battle: a) combine as many armies as possible b) blast cannons and bridges first c) use infantry to stave off cavalry, and vice versa.

[@aravositas21]

Amiga 500 what a wonderful years..........

[@darkroronoa]

one of the most fun games ever

[@rod8128]

This game was awesome. Aah, nostalgia. I remember, in two-player mode, the one _not_ playing with joystick but with keyboard had a slight disadvantage cos' he could not use the horse weapons and move up and down at the same time. Anybody remember? Or was there a workaround?

[@Luxontour]

great game. nice to see it again

[@masterexploder9668]

I remember I liked to screw around in the menu, changing soldiers to different tunes and trolling the photographer constantly clicking on his arse. Also the battles, began my love with strategic games.

[@anglojojo]

LOL i remeber playing this alot back in the day hehe I liked this game back then : )

[@SosoDeSamurai]

Great game!!, but you are a bad player

[@StoutProper]

He’s not very good is he, no wonder Germany most lost so many wars

[@repc465]

Freaking awesome ! So much joy & humor brought to such a simple game, that was incredible fun...haha @1428

[@Giotiner]

Best game I ever played!!! Nostalgie!

[@BigAngeloSantorini]

One of the best games ever made

[@Vinniebabe]

Gosh I remember this game, it was fun 2 player but against the computer.... who could control cavalry, cannons and infantry all at once it was sooooo difficult
