Empire Total War: Darthmod - Great Britain Campaign Part 4 ~ Preparing the Trade Fleet!

[@TheFanoren]

personally, what I do is I custom name my regiments that perform deeds that practically turned the tide in battles. I had one battle as sweden that was absolutely brutal, only two regiments survived it, I renamed both regiments after the city they defended and brought them with an army that was invading Russia. Unfortunately, after a series of hard fought battles, the army was cornered in St Petersburg, facing 4 to 1 odds, they held their ground and died fighting. The last two regiments to go down were the two heroic regiments, each killing at least three times their number before being destroyed.

[@ZMBEXBSTMDE]

+TheFanoren That is so cool.

[@TheIbney00]

I know the comments a year old, BUT YOU INVADED RUSSIA?! HOW MAD ARE YOU?

[@TheFanoren]

they say variety is the spice of life. I say fuck that, insanity is.

[@jesuschrist624]

+Ibney00 the real question is did he invade in the winter because only one empire has done that

[@jesuschrist624]

Ibney00 I did mean that only one empire succeed in invading Russia in the winter

[@TommyNir]

darthmod is badass i love the micro-managing aspect of having to take care of your mughal enemes

[@TommyNir]

omg the ships have random names *nerdgasms everywhere * sorry i'll just clean that up

[@MrMiniman629]

Does anyone else cringe when lionheart sends his cavalry units in front of his own troops' line of fire? cx

[@justwithdwauv]

Me! :D

[@pokefan20001000]

LOL, it's like Heirofcarthage's infamous General Patchy. XD

[@grimdagamer]

I have been a big Total War fan for a long time and have been hoping to find a good commentator. Glad to find your channel. Subbed, keep up the good work man.

[@DireSwift]

Mid 2019 and re-binge watching this series. Of all the Total War games I have played this is always the one I come back to because of the time period and nostalgia as it was the first one I really sat down and played a full campaign of. It's just satisfying when all those muskets go off.

[@alexboston343]

As someone who is knowledgeable on the Navy but not old enough to join, H.M.S means Her Majesty's Ship. Many of the Navel bases are named after famous British ships, eg H.M.S Sultan.

[@vincentwolf3255]

You know what would be great? A Total War game that takes place on a map similar to the one seen in Empire (with the addition of west Africa) except in a 50 year period from 1820-1870. Something that focuses on the technology and weaponry of the early-ish industrial revolution (as seen in Fall of the Samurai) and could possibly boast an American Civil War expansion pack. A sort of Empire 2: Total War, of something. I hope that's what the Creative Assembly makes next!

[@lionheartx10]

Might do when I finish some of my current LPs got enough going ATM tho.

[@JamesBryantBRAND]

It is great to find another Sharpe fan

[@lionheartx10]

In most countries at participating stores and websites have a look or ask at your local store never know.

[@lionheartx10]

Yeah I know it is, unfortunately I couldn't find a good high resolution GB flag, so had to go for the Union Flag.

[@hesketh7085]

Watching this series in Summer 2017 - 15,000 subs wanted? You have 245,000 now bud - great work! :)

[@luke3835]

off to make a pot of tea before continuing in this awesome British historical journey

[@lionheartx10]

The i5 3570K, its the latest Ivy bridge processor range from intel, while the 2500K is still good its a few years old now, better to buy the latest tech for future proofing :)

[@lionheartx10]

Yeah I talk to them now and then, don't always get to play that many games due to time zones or that wea re just busy recording etc but we try to when we can :)

[@lionheartx10]

well what graphics card do you have? That determines what graphics you can use, not your processor or ram.

[@totalwar1793]

I never understood why the Iroquois loved to destroy the 13 colonies! Britain and them were allies!

[@Gabrys494]

+rafael ruiz XD You made. My Day

[@daltonshiver6885]

Hurrah!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For Britannia

[@generalmaximusv6647]

Congrats on reaching 15,000 subscribers. You earned it.

[@tiagomendesvisscher9030]

501st legion Name for regiment of foot

[@daltonshiver6885]

I would name them the Kings German Legion

[@joeturner8111]

Star wars the clone wars

[@lionheartx10]

Well what settings do you want to run games on? how much is a small budget? PM me your reply.

[@danjones6862]

Lion! Your campaign is very good. You have convinced me to get this game and darthmod with it. However, watch out for friendly fire, especially while maneuvering your cavalry in front of your infantry.

[@1286bill]

The Sharpe references are wonderful, especially to Simmerson and the Kings Colour's. Vaguely tempted to watch Sharpe's Eagle now..

[@niknight99]

Due to my sluggish internet, I often have a book with me to read while videos buffer and it was very convenient that for this video it was none other than Sharpe's Eagle, where the South Essex and Sir Henry Simmerson are introduced for those whom are not familiar with the Sharpe series.

[@smc1942]

@11:33.... I would suggest taking any captured ships, and placing them on Trade Routes. Save the costs of building Trade Ships!

[@ibeunreal9775]

Lionheart i was thinking back to the sharpe series and remembered the KGL -King German Legion. Yoiu should either attach it to a infantry unit or attach it to lancers as in the book they had lancers. Hope thos helps

[@markschultz78]

correct! they didn't have those 2 red lines that go across the flag like an X until later.

[@SuperStumpje]

Congratulations! When I checked 10 seconds ago you were on 15.002 subscribers!

[@redberra223]

Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry - rangers, i just thought it would be fitting to name them a Canadian unit since they were trained in Canada

[@LordLokiLaufeyson]

CONGRATULATIONS !!! You got 15000 subs :) and I am one of them, thank you for being awesome

[@lionheartx10]

If you pre-order Rome 2 you'll get the Greek City States Culture Pack DLC for free.

[@AugustusC40]

For the Grenadier regiments you recruit in the Americas or bring from Great Britain itself you could name them Canadian Grenadier Guards or CGGs for short.

[@BAZ8900]

Congratulation Lionheart for the 15,000 subs.

[@CommanderWittman]

Got the Fife and drum yet?

[@jacobraroha6647]

you are my favorite youtuber love your star war voices

[@ityr]

Congrats on 15.000 subs!!! It would be awesome if you name one of your regiments of horse the aquila regiment =D

[@Iceman9122]

I know i am very late here but i sincerly hope that you namdd a unit of rangers the connaught rangers. Maybe the enniskillen. Dragoons as well :)

[@Snipergod1024]

Oh, just for the layout you asked for: The Lion's Raiders- Mounted Tribal Auxiliary.

[@jonoldham5138]

At the upload you had almost 15k now you have more than ten times that. Good work Bey lionheartx10

[@thechosenonenumber]

One name I thought of is 'the butchers of bengal' - east india company infantry. This is historical given india regents did give themselves wacky names eg tipoos tigers ehoch did exist.

[@davebowman9000]

YAY!! South Essex!! I hope further on you have the Prince of Wales South Essex Very Own Volunteers

[@Snipergod1024]

Maybe call a force 'The Lion's Raiders', a regiment of horsemen dedicated to raiding enemy forces.

[@radioactivemongoose9793]

Sticking with the Sharpe theme, Prince of Wales' Own Volunteers - Line Infantry.

[@koobydoo]

Congrats on 15,000 subs!

[@jameswest2217]

can you call one of the welsh line South Wales Borderers or STP,s 5th Infantry Division (line infantry) becuase of zulu wars and for STP who died in the battle of waterloo ( sorry about the spellings i have dislxyer)

[@Mr2000Bob1]

[@lionheartx10]

1 part as shown in my install video :)

[@ariostully9976]

for artillery, imperial royal battery for a ship,HMS lionheart :) for a horse regiment,409 ironfoot battalion

[@lionheartx10]

yes it can.

[@cymontree]

Robert E. Lee - General... specifically one who is loved by his men Stonewall Brigade - line infantry 93rd Sutherland Highlanders - infantry... it would be cool if they were company men

[@TheFirstOfHisName]

I'll undoubtedly do that. By the way, I'm quite curious about this, d'you keep contact with the other guys doing Total War let's plays? I mean, whether you do some online battles with Sapphire or Surreal Beliefs or not?

[@editorjake2323]

congrats on 15,000 subs man :)

[@Dracko1243]

Could you name one regiment of foot 'Tower Guard' and i really liked your sith impressions and i am British myself and really like your British vocab.

[@lionheartx10]

it should run fine

[@zAerolyn]

Congrats on 15k subs !

[@MM6638]

Lionhart please call one of your canons '' Artillery Of Cappadocia ''

[@lukecornNL]

It would be cool to have a Dutch volunteer regiment, or dutch lancer guard in honour of the Dutch lets play

[@sunsetting7088]

Ahhh my childhood

[@RedLongLine]

Name either an infantry regiment Portugesse and Greek regiments as a reference to your previous campaigns

[@Duplex1996]

Nice to see u are doing britain campaign :) keep it up ohh btw when will u do a new fall of the samurai lets play

[@MyShostak]

I would appreciate it if you named you 50th regiment of foot 'The Dirty Half Hundred'. Also if you called your 39th regiment of foot 'The Dorsets.' This is a fantastic series sir.

[@Marygibson77]

I know I'm ages late but, look at the upkeep on a trade ship vs on a brig

[@phelanconor030]

you are from new brunswick arent you? naming a unit after a white horse good on you my good sir

[@TheFirstOfHisName]

That's quite a reason, I admit. Although, my advice is to use "mate" and "undoubtedly" much more. To the majority of English speakers, those words sound extremely cool. Keep up the good work, by the way. D'you know, if there's any DLC as an award for pre-ordering Rome 2?

[@Spurr_ovo]

How come when I upgraded my barracks in London I couldn't get the 33rd guys?

[@TheWalterka]

congratz on 15000 subs!!!

[@OFASG1]

South Essex? Simmerson? You've been watching Sharpe. :P

[@lukecornNL]

And maybe a pikeman unit as Alexander's bane as a reference to Alexander the great

[@stollfam8024]

Im obviously a bit late, but you have replaced finbar as my fav tuber . Excellent commentary and content . Finished sweden lets play now moving to the damned able redcoats bravoand cheers for a excellent channel. Huge plus my wife thinks your voice is extremely sexy. Ive used your tactics for sweden "my first campaign in total war" im doing remarkably well after defeats with america and russia. Bravo ty for great vids

[@DARKREAPER8117]

Good to see a Brit giving the enemy's of the empire an excellent smashing

[@TheFirstOfHisName]

That's nice! It'd be amazing, if you guys played some online battles at the very start. Just an idea.

[@samuelturner5609]

congratz with 15k subs!

[@hornybevo]

For squad names, 54th Prometheus battalion, 74th New World Order, 5th Red Coat Coalitionist, Steel Inquisitor, 69th Iron Fist, The Manchester Militia, The Red Devils

[@kylebenjamin4287]

Here's a troop horatio hornblower's artillery regiment (artillery)

[@nogoodusernames100]

Green Dragoons-Regiment of Horse (From the Patriot)

[@Spurr_ovo]

Im from yorkshire so can you have some sort of Yorkshire regiment type for the line infantry

[@MushGush93]

I thought HMS was only for Ships? as in His/Her Majesty's Ship which doesnt really make sense for a foot or cavalry surely?

[@LCM12Lewis]

Indeed, I do know that but I'm not really looking for accuracy.

[@HashlerTheStachler]

Since you have an army in canada, why not name your auxillaries The Kanata light horse, or simply First Canada auxillaries

[@Snipergod1024]

That would be epic. The 501st Imperials, marching in the name of the King on all enemies of the crown.

[@222Silverstein]

Name only your toughest regiments that you have seen tested in battle. Or your elites as well.

[@WingNutAviation]

I dont normally comment on vids and I know you probably wont read this as your video is 4 years old. Having said that I felt I must comment on this one. I am really enjoying watching your ETW vids and listening to your awesome impressions. But your references to Sharpe (95th Rifles, Sharpe's Rifles, South Essex and Simmerson) made it for me. Ive enjoyed watching and reading Sharpe and Hornblower for many many years and often watch re-runs. They are the sole reason why I play ETW and NTW and interested in this era of warfare. Keep up the excellent work 😀. On a side note I didnt know you could get 95th Rifles in ETW DM or not. I know you can in NTW. Can someone please confirm. Also how do you rename regiments? Thanks.

[@lionheartx10]

Hey James really glad youre enjoying the ETW series and all the Sharpe references etc. I believe with Darthmod you can get the 95th in ETW :)

[@WingNutAviation]

lionheartx10 Thanks for reading, replying and the info. Ive only recently downloaded DM (although Ive had the game since day 1) so I will keep a look out for them. All the best

[@chemicalconfusion6164]

lionheartx10 you don't see that everyday

[@SirNash32]

I geanaly take the 13 colonies before anything to help with money and you can build more school that way to

[@Cullendupree]

Didn't doom 2 come out 3 years ago

[@sislak46]

[@ChaseGray-rk3sz]

Can you name a line infantry unit the 1st Texas company

[@aaronator118118]

glad to see a brit campaign:) could you re-establish an alliance with the united provinces?

[@bamabornrtr]

you should have a trivia question during the parts and first person to comment the correct answere gets a regerment named after them

[@stefanc8068]

Mate you are the best you tuber out there! There are many great reasons but one of them is cos You're British ! Hah, keep on you tubing, You're the best lion

[@lionheartx10]

I'm really enjoying it actually :)

[@Mico22070]

You are a great youtuber, keep it up.

[@DoomsDayGamingHD]

How did you make the intro? i really like it

[@Virtuousmetal777]

as a homage to the famous poem, why not name a regiment "The Light Brigade"?

[@vincehgrutherford6184]

King .Theoden Isn't that a poem of the Crimean war? Where the brigade charged into a surprise attack or am I confusing this?

[@xbinbyer1055]

In TWM2 i ran my own cavily in to my longbow mens spikes XD

[@redberra223]

Actually I'm from Alberta and my dad served in the PPCLI

[@Warforged117]

The 'Ironsides' perhaps?

[@AshBash2805]

have you made a tutorial on how to make a picture for the thumbnail? (dont know the proper word) like for this campaign you have a British flag with "Great Britain" on it

[@Trevor-Watlington]

your computer says it has i5 8gb ram, which is what I have. However my game won't let me raise the graphics higher than medium (which sucks)

[@aaronator118118]

I hope you remember me i was in your sim city live stream- AaronMcf123:) could you rename a line infantry- The Royal Ulster Brigade, as i'm a BIG fan from N.I

[@PCMG37]

32nd_redcoats_eliete#regiment of foot. please work them up into royal guard kinda like the old guard please.
