Awesome, probably one of the best cinematic battles I've seen. Your camera panning is great, most videos I've seen they just stick it up close in a melee and leave it there for 5 mins. You show a wide view to give situational awareness, and then glide effortlessly through the melee showing both sides of battle. Music, emotions, and an actual beastmen win make this even better. Well done sir.

[@ebenitez2011]

I love the mods that gave the empire army their plate armor, makes them look as a proper army! For Karl Franz!!!

[@dragonlord4643]

best thing are the longrifles, repeating rifles and grenade launchers ofr missle infantry. They should be incloudet for the Empire Roster also with Heavy armored Infantry and some Knights variation (High elves, Lizardmen and Skaven get soo much stuff but Empire, Bretonia, Woodelves and literally all the rest of Warhammer 1 factions get nothing) last thing empire got ere some Hunter units and warwagons from which one is totally usluess.

[@PowermadNavigator]

@@dragonlord4643 yeah I'm pissed off beyond recognition with the 60 DLCs that only did two things: Serve as cash income for CA only for them to jump onto the China train. And buff up every other race besides Bretonnia and Empire and they are literally the two coolest races with the best thought-out lore that took thinking and consideration to mash into a fantasy world some decades ago.. Their latest DLC makes you play as goblins and you have a fat goblin chef whom you gotta gather ingredients for and he might make your army stronger. What the fuck? You mean to tell me, that the community bitched to CA that the Orks are weak and now they get this, plus their entire race is reworked and now they got more units than ever and powerful ones too. Back in the day I could use one unit of Crossbowmen to rout two units of goblin minority archers. Now if I do that, I will probably lose half the unit while fighting the first goblins before I can get them to pull back because they will have volcano-empowered stuff, napalm arrows, exploding arrows and fuck knows what. Are you fucking kidding me, these are supposed to be cavemen!? And High Elves getting buffed as well. Thank anime junkies for that. Remove anime from warhammer! Fucking degenerates... Literally no point in playing Empire and Bretonnia. Yesterday I am trying a new campaign with Gelt and within 40 turns, vamps had conquered everything besides Nuln to my east and orks were seriously breathing down my neck from south, through the Grey Mtns. CA, YOU FUCKS! THE HUMAN BOTS ARE SITTING IN THEIR CITIES AND BUILDING SPEARMEN! Literally the Vamps in my game now stretch from Middenheim to Zhufbar. How am I gonna stop this? And their roster is fucked up OP as well. I kill all of their Lords and only about a third of the army dies. The rest keep fighting almost unhindered. Does the difficulty modifier now change that too? Varghuls or what are they just tear through anything and regular empire swordsmen are useless, what the fuck. Vlad and Manfred all but two-shot Karl Franz at times WHAT THE ... !? Grave Guard all over the place in Warhammer 2. Somebody thought that giving them the charge bonus of an angry turtle would balance things out. Not quite... And I need DLC to be able to train archers, but the bots have no such constraints. Cool, having added fun at start of imperial campaigns. Yeah, claiming free DLCs from the Total War site could be easier. Free Company are DLC, but at least it is free. Too much DLC. The rest of this rant might be me, but too much DLC. DO SOMETHING FOR THE NORMAL, NON-DEGENERATE RACES! At this rate, we will have TW: Age of Sigmar in Warhammer Total War 3... with 100 ELCs.

Whats all this “we” shit? GO BEASTMEN! Also, on a separate note, it would be possible to have bretonnians come in the rear. Have them reinforce in the battle and you move them outside the settlement and make sure not to get any shots of them until the end to make it appear as though they came in. It’s possible in this scenario since this was more than likely staged.

Was expecting Bretonnia to come to the rescue but awesome nonetheless :)

[@orochirel]

Same

[@batesBeckham]

Hey! Thank you for the compliment.. As for reinforcements, I don't know how they could be used...every battle I film is a real total war battle I played, I dont "set it up scene for scene" that being said, there is no way to add a 3rd faction to the fight..if I added Bretonnia, they would be controlled by AI, and they would have to be inside the castle at the start of the level..the AI would have to somehow sneak them out the front gate and hide in the woods and then come out at the very end of battle and attack,...its literally impossible. The AI doesn't think like that, and there was no possible way to hide them...I dont know if you play the game but for those that do..it MIGHT be possible in "the laboratory" mode, im not sure..but I refuse to use laboratory as alot of youtubers use it as click bait..they lie about their troop counts acting like they actually had 30k troops in their battles and it makes my videos less viewed...would you prefer to click on a 30k battle or a 17k battle? The difference is..my 17k battle is larger because it's 17k troops at one time on the map, while these 30k battles in laboratory are like 7k or 8k troops on the map at once and when a unit dies a new unit spawns in until the number reaches 30k..its misleading to the average viewer who doesn't play the game. And so I won't touch that mode. When you play battlefield..its 64players..we don't then say well 64 players died 20 times each and so its actually 2,000 players. That is false and that's what youtubers are doing with total war

[@orochirel]

Maybe through the power of editing ! Meaning two different battles ? Haha idk

[@batesBeckham]

@@orochirel I thought about it, but then I couldn't tout my high numbers lol its not a 17k battle anymore if I use two separate battles, im cheating! lol

[@batesBeckham]

I see alot of people doing cinematic battles and they don't have alot of views, so I feel like people come to see my movies because I boast these massive numbers that aren't normal. I bet if I left the 17k off the title of this video, people wouldn't click on it and check it out....So I always want to stay true to my video serving a dual purpose which is part entertainment like a movie and part modern tech demo where people say "oh man we are now at the point computers can handle this amount of stuff going on? That's crazy!"

You know, a long time ago, right after i came to live in Israel (and was real bad with hebry and english), we watched the film about Samson. You know, the judiac hero, who was as strong as his hair were long. He was betrayed by woman which learned his secret and haircut him, BUT that woman haven't revealed that secret to anybody else. And when his enemies decided to celebrate "anniversary" to his capture and brought him to their temple, he broke two supporting pillars and thus fell all of the temple on everyone present inside... Why I remembered that movie when watched this one? Because, by the end of movie, my mother said to the people we watched the movie with: "At the time of Stalin, there would be "Bang-bang and that's it to architect"" ;) The point is, in my opinion, it was this fortress architect who screwed up that battle!!! There were plenty of tricks in fortifications, which would cost MUCH more to ANY aggressor! Cannon positions on the front wall, armed with balls would stop dead all the towers, and make "fair duel" with stone throwers. Properly built redoubts would allow to those cannons loaded with buckshot to "flush" ANYONE with the ladders... And lastly: Second GATED wall (preferably gate mustn't be "on the SAME line" as the first wall's is), would take to any aggressor MUCH MORE TIME to get through.

[@nmv932]

Your work is amazing!!! I have a couple of suggestions that would improve your videos. * Choose a side to endorse the storytelling with a protagonist vs antagonist relationship. Normally in your videos, I see no narrative difference between both sides, It would be better to have a "defensive protagonist" or "aggressive attacker" than a video with a bunch of plot twists and full of random fighting scenes. * Build a narrative strategy. Sometimes there are things that just "happened" and are very important for the trama because the battle depends on how well performed are these strategies but if these just "happens" then you're wasting time in random scenes that can be better to focus on how each side is making its main movement to win the battle. * Try to use a real tactic. In many of your videos I get angry because what's happening has no logic like just not making a defensive formation when you're trying to defend your position, not using your cavalry to flank, allow your troops to get easily flanked even if they can make a move to impede it to happen, perform a wave attack when you know there is a lot of empty spaces that your enemy can use to win... I know that maybe it is because of the "epicness" but I think that it could be better for your videos if it is not just a "dumb ways to die" compilation.
