EPIC SIEGE OF ANNUMINAS - Third Age Total War Gameplay

[@highdefinitionapollo2189]

9:25 "black numenoreans riding warg riders" I'm not sure I'm happy with that image in my head.

[@sionefinaulahi4640]

No, not a very pleasant image at all....well...I mean....

[@leobrody6675]

"You know some people say the witchers are OP, but they're actually not" *Witchers kill 20 dismounted Knights of Annuminas during that sentence*

[@SynnoftheDarkCloud]

oh and btw, happy meal was the first general, t3mpo was the 2nd general and you were the 3rd general. thanks for the great commentary and cinematography and participating ofc", was a blast^^

[@mechanismprototype]

Synn of the DarkCloud can you make every scenario include arnor plz :)

[@jonathanwilliams2999]

When u speak about balancing one time EVER as constructive criticism and u feel bad when he says complaining even tho it was a good observation tht day 😭😀😇

[@happymeal9874]

Awesome stuff apollo! Nice that you could join us in this one!

[@Ben92x]

Hey Happy, could I ask you if there is like a ts server for TW players? Can`t seem to find someone to match me, most skilled players tend to play with their friends. So when I fight against randoms I tend to win a little to easy. Counting 45-8 so far. Just watching you guys makes me wanna fight some real opponents! xD

[@milesdavis607]

Tengs Naw man, there is no one to match your savagery. PS FUCK YOU HAPPY

[@eugh8025]

Miles NorrisDavis why?

[@williamhammann3170]

I really loved this battle because there was so much time spent fighting on the walls, for the walls, or from the walls. I love walls, and especially love wall battles.

[@CarlosCastillo-zf5fb]

"These are not normal warg riders. These are black Numenóreans riding the warg riders" That sounds like an interesting party.

[@SynnoftheDarkCloud]

more like 20-30 x kuro lol xD

[@danielw.8356]

Withcer units aren't OP, as they sit there wiping out over 50 dismounted Dunedin in less than a minute....

[@sicilianmaster8053]

40:20 "It just looks like a bunch of penguins trying to stay warm during winter" lmao pixie i love your vids keep it up ive been subbing since like 60k

they really should increase the ammo that your missle units have when you are defending in a city

Very interesting how people say "nice battle" after the video is up for 10 seconds. I can say "nice battle" without watching because i witnessed it but the rest should watch it first. And how about you guys just enjoy this crazy slaughter without the classic negative or attention seeking comments.

It's not that scenarios are unbalanced, it's that the walls in M2tw are too easy to overcome and siege equipment is too powerful...

[@dollazification]

thanks for the upload PA, snowed in in canada so these uploads keep me sane, keep it up

[@secretytv]

This was one of the most epic sieges ever thank u Apollo!

[@konradvonschnitzeldorf6506]

I love how, when he talks about Witchers not being op, it shows them getting like 50 kills in a few seconds

[@BlingLingification]

Thanks for the explanation on the many hours these players put in just to balance the custom scenarios :D It helped me understand how hard these players work to make these videos and scenarios possible

#defendersneverwinbecausetrollsandwitchersareop

[@greatnatebolton8805]

King Jon Stark trolls are OP. the defenders NEVER win the siege.

[@animegandalf8690]

GreatNate Bolton They dont win not because trolls are op but because the attackers have a much bigger army and more players

[@sahibdhinsa1342]

People who say trolls are op are obvs noobs n don't know how to counter them

[@greatnatebolton8805]

Sahib Dhinsa I'd like to see a video where they are countered. As of now, every video they're used in is basically a prolonged massacre.

[@jayl1460]

King Jon Stark Agreed, as everyone else should. There ability to run through formations without taking casualities is a huge problem for defenders. It's not so much the overall kills they get, it's the fact that they will go through defensive lines and easily let the orcs through.

[@SirBrandan]

[@therealogeminem5662]

Clearly those trebuchets are vastly superior to those peasant orc catapults. Being able to launch a 90kg projectile with a counterweight is so beautiful.

It was mainly abandoned because the great plague literally dwindled middle earth's population to about half of what it was. Rhovanion, Gondor, Rhun, and Gondor were hit the hardest. While Endewaith, and Dunland were hardly affected.

[@emeraldwarden8018]

PixiePo should organize all the videos he have for Third Age Total War according to what date they happened or how they are connected to each other. It would be awesome to rewatch all of them in sequence.

[@hungjury7482]

On a different account, I was here before 10k. Third Age was once a luxury. It's better this way.

[@magdielpaz5320]

#defenders never win However i understand what u said Apollo about how hard it is to successfully balance a scenario. Nevertheless Apollo props my man you did great with the commentary I mean it had everything....everything from cavalry to artillery to charges, this battle was great man the strategy and the play itself fabulous dude. Congrats man.

[@charlessedore4633]

THIS IS A AWESOME BATTLE

Evil Catapult- Wide open spaces between enemy units, lands direct cluster hits. Good trebuchet- Completely clustered river of enemies, fires off towards left field.

[@daltonallen4971]

Favorite battle yet

[@ChildOfGodNL]

Very nice battles on Third Age Total War 👌

[@lolply54]

in my opinion, a good way to balance those scenarios, is to give defenders a ton of ammo for their ranged and lower that of attackers (i mean, assuming the siege went of for a while before the attack, skirmish would have depleted the attackers ammo reserves; while the defenders can manufacture their own ammo because they're in the city)

and I'm sorry Apollo but the witchers are op too what they are is basically a more mobile faster catapult unit so they have trolls,numanorians,better infantry all around and not to mention numbers they're just souping up the evil factions

[@milesdavis607]

But they are not OP... this is coming from a player who's raged about them in battle... yes they are powerful but uh.... they're supposed too XD. It's like raging about elven archers. It's "natural" (In LOTR logic) but reeeeaaallllyyy annoying at times cause lmao, you do not want your men to die
