Defense of Henneth Annûn: Ithilien Ambush - Third Age Total War Mod Gameplay

[@hoxiedog]

thank you paladin bob for many glorious hours of entertainment...I think the quality of your work inspired many others to follow in your footsteps...where would third age total war be without your genius...I wish you success in all your future endeavors...

[@PixelatedApollo1]

:D

[@archiecrowne]

Pixelated Apollo very true 👍😀

[@treverandnoahm7500]

Go show jolly good show

[@sethlimbo]

Wait what LOTR movie is this

[@riccardobucchioni211]

[@milesdavis607]

It's been a pleasure fighting with/against you paladinbob. Thank you for your time, work, and great sense of humor. For those who did not know him "personally" (as much as steam friends can be personally lmao) he is extremely polite, dedicated, and loyal to Middle-Earth. Even when people/the game became irritated, he was the most polite as possibly can be. Hope it all goes well for you bob- and cheers mate!

[@happymeal9874]

I couldnt have said it any better miles!

[@bcgroiSENSE]

28:00 this is excellent strategy from the defenders because they had the attackers like right where they wanted them to be. The small force behind the bridge was the obvious trap the defenders fall into it so badly. And at the end of battle this point was destroyed because the map shows some changes in colors.

[@prototype226]

Thanks for ruining the whole Battle for eveyone else. No need to watch it anymore. You just robbed him out of more views and eveyone else of a good video so thanks again kid. You officially suck and not just on the weekends when mommy isn't home either as it seems like a full time job for you.

[@Jaguarmaserati]

Paladin Bob has the utmost respect of me. He has created awesome situations of both historical and fantasy in a fantasy setting. Every fight (even if some were a bit glitchy) was awesome and great fun to watch, particularly this one. Now, I know he obviously enjoys doing these sorts of things, so whatever it is that is causing him trouble, I pray to the lord that he gets over it and he is able to find pleasure in the simple things. Playing games, making games, hanging with friends, spending time with family, I hope that he is able to overcome what is grieving him. Whether he makes more or not, I don't care. I just want him to feel better. Tell him I hope he conquers his own troubles like he has conquered so many battles. :)

To: The Legend PaladinBob I have been watching your custom scenarios for over a year now and I can say there has never been a time where I clicked off the video because of anything really, I wish you luck in whatever is going on irl . I hope soon you get past this and get back to making custom scenarios that I and over 200 thousand people have been enjoying whether a new subscriber or a long timer like myself. And also thanks goes to pixie as well the awesome camera man and narrator. Sincerely, Patrick A Long time Knight

[@FIGGYYY_]

Thank you so much, Paladin Bob! You have done a great job with Third age and its fanbase and we all love what you have done to bring entertainment to us through Middle Earth battles. Take your time off to sort out whatever it is your doing, and relax, you earned it. Thanks again Pixy for another great commentated replay!

[@iamthedestroyer797]

Thank you Paladinbob, for all the awesome scenario's you made. It's too bad you'll stop making them. . I loved to watch your scenarios on this channel (so also thanks to you PA) and the couple of times we fought on tatw. I hope we'll see you in the future, but for now I wish you good luck with your personal issues, hopefully you can fix them. Het gaat je goed!

[@arsalmustafa3705]

Yup Paladin Bob is such a great scenario maker.He made the battles come to alive.He is a legend.

[@GustafafKlint99]

Thanks Paladinbob! You've done great with these scenarios and it has been a blast watching them play out on Apollo's channel! Hopefully you will manage to get back into making them again in the future. Also many thanks to Apollo for taking time commentating on the scenarios and showing them to the public!

[@mattulah]

I am a huge fan of this battle, from the books and from the movie. Got to say this video did not dissapoint me one bit! Great job paladinbob and apollo :) As always, had a blast watching ... #defendersfinallywon :D

[@PixelatedApollo1]

Thanks man :D

[@jorenverbiest5193]

[@zacholson5312]

Thanks paladin bob you've brought me so many hours of entertainment with the battles you and your fellow third age total war players/modders have participated in. I think you are one of the people that have led third age total war to where it is today. I wish you success in your personal things and in all your future endeavors.

Merry Christmas Apollo, and A Happy New Year Soon! Here's to a great year of videos and another one to come! P.S Merry Christmas to Paladinbob aswell, Get well soon man, whatever the problem is I hope you defeat it in glorious combat! I hope you will go back to making more scenarios soon, the community will miss you but we will wait for your return! At least we have Synn and Kuro to make scenarios in your stead now, Good Luck my friend I wish you a Happy New Year aswell!

[@benben553]

Paladin Bob, Great work on making these maps. And I love watching you in battle, have learnt some great tactics watching you, you keep it very entertaining!

[@ulfhazelcreek8108]

This was a fantastic scenario. A dramatic scene set in a dramatic location. Well done, and well played. Thank you all who played, thanks PA for showing it and extra thanks to Paladin Bob with a side dish of well wishes.

[@lukasweichselbaum3472]

thanks paladin bob. you are a legend that brought me many hundreds of hours of fun and entertainment. I hope that whatever you are going to do now works out for you just fine. Thanks

[@kodiak4594]

18:51 that bandit's leap is inspiring as fuck

[@gotiyamunda]

Thanks Paladinbob,for this amazing map and this battle.You are a great guy and I've been following you for a really long time and you have done amazing things to third age. You are a true legend.

[@bananaboat30plus87]

Hey paladin bob, because of your battle replays i went out and brought medieval 2 and down loaded ttw, thanks man, this game has given me weeks on enjoyment

[@jackmclaughlin605]

PaladinBob's scenarios are amazing! (Great video)

[@danieljcferreira]

Your videos made me want to start playing this game and what a great game it is. Keep up the good work Apollo. Also big cumps to the legendary PaladinBob for the amazing scenarios. Cheers!

[@NotQuiteEnglish01]

I think Tolkien himself would have been proud of the quality of the depiction of the battles of Middle Earth in your work on this mod Paladin... Whatever is going on in your life, the Knights of Apollo are right behind you! I'm damn sure you pulled more than a few of them through some rough spots in their own lives, thanks to the entertainment you and Pix provide. Good luck, God bless and we all hope to see you back soon!

[@zachbaird2851]

Thank you, paladinbob. You've been a huge influence for the community and made Third Age more interesting and fleshed out. Hope your personal affairs are handled properly. Regards, TA community.

[@dondave6746]

thx paladin bob for all the great scenerios

[@trylaxx2565]

Thank you paladin bob for such great custom replays and maps for us to enjoy

[@dannyruiz105]

Thank you Pladin for all youve done for us and the countless outstanding battles youve spent so much time on creating for our entertainment, you truely are a legend.

[@azaghallordofbelegost1880]

we are with you P.Bob hope you get your personal stuff sorted and happy holidays to you all!

[@jurekdekarski2316]

Great piece of work Paladin Bob, you are truly a TATW/M2TW legend. Regarding the game: It seems like the attackers lacked communication. The first Harad force should just clear the way and screen the flank with help of the second harad army. The mordor force should then make the ultimate push through the gate, this is the only way they could win this but still it would not be easy.

[@Ben92x]

Congratulation Apollo! Fantastic that you won the youtube award! :D Keep it going man!

[@jimhostage3818]

thanks for all the custom maps so I can watch the replays palidinbob

[@TheMinarus]

"HELLO GUYS! It's Pixellated Apollo, today I'm back with a new third age battle..." That's when I know you're about to make my day....LMAO Luv all the videos!

[@hjmiles19]

thank you paladin bob you've given me so many hours of great entertainment. Wishing you all the best and a happy new year

[@Tangodownmtndew]

Thanks PaladinBob! Hope everything gets better!

[@Zoey--]

I love the blending of the Henneth Annun seige defence map with the open ambush area. Imo this worked really well and this map clearly had a lot of love put into it creation wise! The end kinda bugged me "Was there a fight here? I think we missed a bit." yeah the whole time I was like LOOK AT THE BRIDGE OMG I WANNA SEE THE LAST STAND haha they seem to have been slaughtered but maybe 1-1 ratio in the final melee. Anyway good commentary as always and very entertaining :D I also think the defenders would have won regardless of the time limit given the ending forces and mordor being out of catapult ammo. Plus cow bombing your own troops doesn't really help them push through superior melee fighters xD

[@GayRage]

Thank you for capturing my imagination and creating incredibly innovative and engaging scenarios Paladin Bob. You are a jem of the youtube community and someone whos work speaks volumes about their abilities. Good luck and happy new year good sir.

[@Qpierre93]

More of these strictly strategic battles please. Honestly my favorite one so far. Paladin Bob is a freakin legend. 🙏🏾

[@theshanoski6244]

Great battle and great map by paladinbob! Keep up the good work :)

[@magdielpaz5320]

[@martinjandrevski4328]

Paladin Bob,i don't know why i really like your custom scenarios.Maybe its because the awesomnes,maybe because they aren't classic.But i know that you are the only man who can make the custom scenarios just like for a movie.You should try making a mini-film/movie based on your custom scenarios.

[@martinjandrevski4328]

Like this if you want Paladin Bob to continue making custom scenarios.

[@bristianmemequisition]

Thank you pixie and paladin bob for this incredible battle and for making this real I love your commentary apollo and I love your maps bob I'm going to buy this game for just this mod it's like a dream come true everyone loves a lotr tw and it's beautiful thank you for all of this.

[@v_ChimChim_x]

7:23 "I get knocked down! But I get up again!"

[@Duzaroo]

That's two "defenders sometimes win" in the last two weeks. I'm gonna have to start saying "attackers never win". Good luck PaladinBob.

[@pauwelsjoren]

Thank you paladinbob for the great custom scenarios. I hope you're Oké? Also thank you Apollo. I hope to see more of this in 2017. Best wishes

[@luccasdubai]

The lone ranger at 25:12, wearing sellat/helmet....so arrows can't hit it.

I hope you will post another video of this battle.

Just imagine the orcs and remaining Haradrim. "Alright guys, well it's been an hour and we didn't take it, time to head home."

[@sidharthkumarnmenon6350]

an interesting take on the ambush! loved it!

[@tellmeaboutit691]

Paladinbob knows how to make attackers struggle. With him making the scenarios #defenderscanwin

[@rubendefrancesco1802]

awesome replay , even if they were a little bit too slow , thank u apollo I really enjoyed your third age total war videos !!

[@MrKillerVamp]

Btw Apollo. This is my favorite episode yet. A ugly outnumbered army struggling to hold is pretty awesome.

[@paulwhitecotton4040]

May we please have more of these kind of videos, it was awesome to watch.

[@kayakgh101]

thanks for the scenario paladin Bob!

[@HamDenLange755]

I really liked the music u put in great choice

[@Max-lv9oi]

I love you PA

[@shanepealow2052]

Paladin Bob is the real MVP :)

[@alexbfn7541]

43:35 i think it was harad general as it was serpent bodyguard and it was next to water and charging last we saw

[@kurogurochan7957]

we need some witchers back up!

[@braegand1380]

Gotta ask: When are we gonna see a Minas Tirith Seige with all of the new units? Assuming they work on that, of course. This video is amazing, and I love the Gondorian/Cair Androth (I think that's the other Psuedo Gondorian Faction) factions! Not to mention Minas Tirith is a huge settlement, so that would be amazing to see with all of the new units.

[@karthago1469]

"So cruel to use innocent elephants" All horses, ever, be like: "Bruh"

[@valizawesome796]

37:24 Apollo said:Probably what makes them(Ithilien Rangers) so good at combat. Right after he said that,,,A ranger dies to a southron warband..

[@Akfan5]

That frodo Impression was perfect at 9:04
