Battle of Jaffa (1192 AD) Richard the Lionheart VS Sultan Saladin - Total War Cinematic Epic Clash

[@MrSpock-ww3qt]

Fantastic cinematics. They seriously deserve longer videos perhaps 15 minute battle clips.

I remember reading both Christian and Islamic sources on this battle. The Christian sources were (IIRC) a combination of several accounts from anonymous crusaders put into a poetry-like form, so there were a lot of artistic/emotional expressions. The Islamic source was written by a Muslim historian who was present during the crusade. It’s comparatively calm and dry. Despite their different styles, it’s pretty interesting how both accounts roughly match. For instance, the Christian sources say a priest jumped from the walls of Jaffa and swam to Richard’s ship. The Muslim Historian also saw this with his own eyes from a distance, but could not have known he was a priest, so simply says “one of the garrison jumped” Once Richard learned Jaffa had still not fallen, he immediately moved his fleet to the shore to disembark. The Christian sources say Richard didn’t even wear his full armor but rushed to the shore, and he was the first man to land. The Muslim Historian says Richard’s boat and his men were the first to touch shore, and Richard’s armor, banner and hair were all red (again, he saw this with his own eyes.) During the battle itself, the Christian sources go into detail of Richard’s personal bravery and marital skill, saying he got shot by numerous arrows to the point where he looked like a porcupine. It also states Richard’s palms were bleeding due to the several sword blows he dealt to the enemy. Now the Muslim Historian removed himself from the battle and wasn’t present. However he interviewed those who were, and states “I was assured that the King of England, lance in one hand, rode through our ranks left to right. Not one of our warriors challenged him.”

[@MambaKing]

Great work as always friend. It's always a pleasure to work with you!

[@SandokanBattles]

I finnaly finish that one, took me 2 years i think, thanks for help

[@kungpowsesame8260]

Your cinematics are seriously getting better. my only recommendation is more war horns, makes the battle feel more surreal, im certain theres a particular difference in sound for charge,advance,defend,retreat and culture played a factor, you wouldn't see celtic picts using a hunnic warhorn. , idk playing rome 2 I noticed eastern factions have higher pitched horns.

[@SandokanBattles]

thank you, that's very good advice, one you can hear in this movie I add manually because you can't hear them that clearly in game, and I agree, they awesome 👍

[@TotalWarDocumentaries]

Underrated vid man. Keep going!

[@markokolega133]

[@sakimura123]

Hey! Total War Pharoah will be coming soon!

[@SandokanBattles]

not so excited but for sure im gona made something

[@DiscothecaImperialis]

0:55 Did you mod use Rome: Total War instead of Medieval Total War II? warships seen here is very much off to me. sure you use Roman Freight Ship as a cog placeholder, and Roman Liburnia for any Medieval Galleys. and those ships look very different to each other.

[@marvinvasquez9437]

So, what’s your plan making a cinematic battle for Warhammer 3, plus the chaos dwarfs are playable now?

[@SandokanBattles]

For sure I'm gonna make something but for now i want to concentrate on historical battles, greetings

[@rungsukburanarungsuk8816]

Fact: modern day of Jaffa is Yafo, part of Tel Aviv, Israel.

The whole of the west were terrified of Salahaideen…how come you don’t show any of his countless victories ?

[@SandokanBattles]

i know he was great, but in this movie i show only one battle

[@bruhmcchaddeus413]

Now say that without crying, baldwin, barbarosa and richard all 3 whooped him lol Saladins own biographer and one of leading man ibn shaddad wrote of terror richard brought in saladins army. After barbarosa drowned, richard sailed and came as his replacement. “ the catholic king rode on his horse with lance in his hand alone, galloping from left to right and not a single muslim dared to challenge him” - Ibn shaddad translation, literally google him 😂

[@QuadroAlas24]

😂😂😂 Your Salad got Outplayed By King Richard with Fewer troops not only once but twice 😂😂😂 And Baldwin beat him when he's only 16 years old
