Rome total war: all faction intros

[@WachtAmWeb]

it's ironic that the Parthian intro goes on about wealth and gold, when Parthia is a really hard faction to turn a profit with...

[@vegetation99]

yeh i started the new parthia campaign today and expected to have loads of cash, but then i got in game as was sadly disapointed

[@Tanakun09]

WachtAmWeb When you have light infantry units that have wicker wood shield and think that they can take on heavy infantry such as Levy or silver shield pikemen or legions, they have no chance in hell of winning. Only way of winning with Parthia is to go all cav, and throw in a few Elephants that should be used as shock and suicide units. Other than that Parthia ain't got no chance in hell of winning. I will do a Parthia campaign one day, but I'm going to add mod and make some units avaiable to the the Parthians. One day. Until then I have other factions to play with first.

[@urbaraskpraetor3316]

+Tony Moua (Greatkhan24) I have done a parthia game it requires you make a lot of trading agreements. Also yeah flank attacks whilst your garbage infantry get pasted holding down enemy infantry is the only real way to do it. With that said parthia has really good cavalry, absurdly good. while it can be hard to take cities, on the open plains persian horse archers are absurd. The nice thing is that you don't start off with many enemies.

[@Ackalan]

+Urbarask Praetor If you use infantry as Parthians, you're doing it horribly wrong and deserve the losses you will inevitably face.

[@Tanakun09]

Use the Missle cave to drive light infantry of from the rest of their army and hit them with Cataphracts. Other than that, your chances of winning is zero. If you don't know how to do the hit and run tactic.

Thus the Roman side of the story dominates the history books. Also, in the Parthian intro, they say invaders come here but they do not leave, is a reference to the battle of Carrhae.

Brutii campaign is by far the easiest, because Scipii and Julii are going for less populated, poorer areas and Brutii are going first for Greece and then Asia Minor or Egypt. Easy access to wonders. Play as Brutii, build only temples of mercury then traders then ports, then capture the Collosus of Rhodes and you will have infinite money.

[@Finwaell]

well.. try it on VH difficulty.. by the time you make it pass Greek /Macedonian and Thracian hordes of hoplites holding the mountain passes and heavily defended cities (and they will most likely gang up on you and Gauls as well for good measure because AI Julii are taking their friggin time) the other families have a pretty neat realm carved out for them, always fighting only one enemy at a time. Not to mention the Brutii don't start with even barracks. Cant even train hastati from the start and Julii start the game with Triarii.... -_-

[@Nihilio]

Brutii campaign is the hardest because they’re going for actually developed civilizations not barbarians

[@johnlocke6415]

It’s kind of a double edged sword, you just need a large amount of troops money to bribe and build things for trade etc. and tactics on the battlefield but I must admit Greece is a tough cookie if you ally or even think about allying or being friendly towards Dacia and Thrace boom you’re backstabbed, Greece is relentless as well, rebel navies are annoying when trying to blockade ports, Macedon is fairly easy but they come in with a lot of separate armies

[@JonatasAdoM]

If you want your hastati being crushed by militia hoplites yes. Greece is the easiest one I'd say. You have plenty of the only thing in the game you need in a great faction: money. Maybe I take too long, but by the time I get to Greece as Julii, I'm already having population problems with the ex Gallic settlements.

[@haraldharaldson1563]

In battles with greeks and macedon you simply use cavalry to separate hoplites from cavalry and peltast, destroy them by cavalry and finally hoplites are easy to destroy even by velites. To conquer greece don't ever need hastati. Is very satisfactionate when you need only 4 cav to beat any their army. To the other hand if you play Julii you have at the begining hard woth Gauls becsuse they smash infantry by cavalry and they infantry with spears can beat Hastati and cavalry. But when you take Patavium and Milan you have 5 cities near and can spam troops to destroy every oponent. Playing as Scipii i never seen real resistance by Cartaginians. They usually fall bankrupt. Their campaing is most boring. No real resistance, but long distances between cities. Also playing as Scipii you must take Sicily to have good place to recruit army.

Total War could rule the world. Rome 1 did. It took gaming to a far new level. But Rome 1 is dead, its empire is gone. So now we live in evil days, the free men on the forums turn on each other instead of their proper enemies, the Rome 2 developers who destroyed all that Rome 1 has done. Rome 1 must weep, if video games weep. I would weep in its place but I would also hope. Creative Assembly turns, what was may come again, Total War still spins the web of men's lives. So now, perhaps Sega wish Total War to be great again, perhaps a new Rome 1 will take up the fan's hype, bring order where are DLCs. Remake the world of peasant fanboys to a better place. Perhaps

I steam rolled as Syracuse. Rome lost....Rome 3 turns into my campaign to the Etruscans. How? I have no f'n clue. I know about when Sparta will take Apollonia. I take them out there, go and take Larissa, then I take Athens and Sparta, turn north, take the rest of Macedon and all of Thrace and Illyria and Pannonia, then I invade Italy.....and then I realize there is no point as there is no one who can stop me because I have 4-6 full stack armies. It's sad and usually Egypt gets stomped to death and Libya is dead, so Carthage is not much threat anymore...sigh

[@Fearosius]

I love the Egyptian faction intro @ 05:17. However, the way CA represented Egypt in 270BC (the starting year of a new campaign) is rather false. In 270BC, the Ptolemic Dynasty controlled Egypt, which derived from Ptolemy I Soter (367 BC - 283), a Macedonian general that served under Alexander The Great in his eastern campaigns. He inherited the Satrapy of Egypt after Alexander's death in 322 in Babylon and held onto it for the rest of his life, even against the other Diadochi. By 270BC, Egypt was characterised as a very dynamic culture of Greco-Egyptian influences and was ruled by his Ptolemy's son, Ptolemy II Philadelphus. I tried to research as to why Egypt was incorrectly portrayed in RTW and it turns out CA wanted to portray Egypt as a 1500BC civilization due to the many Hellenic factions included in the game (Greek Cities, Macedon, Selucids, Pontus) that utilised the Phalangite/Hoplite as their primary infantry unit. Not only that but the popular culture images and icons that come to mind when people think of 'Ancient Egypt'. Gameplay wise, I see the marketing strategy CA did but historically, completely wrong. Shame that CA would eventually fuck the successor to this great game. I urge anyone to get Rome: Total War instead of its successor, and download mods for it because it is 100% better gameplay wise. Just my 2 cents..

[@lukasor9936]

maybe you should write anything about barbarians who have primary unit with falangs. It's more stupid than this.

[@ЭдЭхо]

Huh, and you know what? I actually agreed. Its strange mistake, hah! Egipt Hellenistic looks like just Egipt with only egiptian culture and army... Thats why i started to create my own Rome TW 1, with hellenistic Egipt in there ( interface, music, hetair cav, cataphracts, hypaspistes, Caria mercenaries, and yes! Ellephants too😀.) Campaign starts in 288 BC, so Seleukos I, Lysimachus, Ptolemy I, Demetrius I Poliorcetes, they all still live ( in my Rome TW Ptolemy Ceraun not in Egypt, he is one of the seleucid generals, near Sardis). All families trees are as history correct, as possible. Shame, but Pirrhus I is one of the rebel gens, because crappy factions limits... But anyway i glad that i able to change all i need, its realy nice, to remake your favorite game just like you are CA now ;)

I brought them the war to their land, the pain and the blood. I sacked their civilization. And so, Greece was made. From the East to the West. From North to the South. The Greeks united, and what was, came again. The Gods wished for the Greeks to be great again. But I did what I did, all by my own.

[@joshtheavocado2103]

unfortunately that never happened in real life. they cant even defeat the muslims

[@roubinnick]

+JoshTheAvocado Obviously it didn't happened. But Alexander managed to conquer all of the known world back then, and could even invade Italy. But it didn't happen. Oh well. And in case you are referring to the downfall of the Byzantine Empire by the Ottomans, well. That was just the end. Like the end of the Roman Empire. Many empires fall and there's no exception.

[@jackstod]

+New Blood Congratulations you made whole world a dream paradise for homosexuals. XD

[@jackstod]

You wish.

[@Mya_star551]

[@MrAlexkyra]

Brutii: 'Lebensraum & Slaves, bah!', Julii: 'I hate Gauls', Parthians: 'We're so rich', Egypt: 'For Pharoah!', Carthage: 'I'm gonna feed my children to Baal'

[@vibritannia5491]

We germans also want Lebensraum in the east..

[@antiepix9555]

Darn Scythian cowards!!! Why don’t y’all run your horses into our pikemen instead of running away!!!

[@8ZakattacK9]

man i just love the Scipii. i used them all the time when i played RTW

[@gleke]

I can't remember too, all factions that you can shoose in the beginning does have an intro I guess :)

[@amuktadir1991]

HE TOOK A arjos and ARYANS ARMY TO FAR INER AND OUTER OCEAN.NOT EVEN NEAR HIM.

[@Foe-be4vg]

I love barbarians

[@UgandanAirForce]

i love their swordsmen

[@horatiohornblower3031]

Both of you; gayest comments ever.

[@UgandanAirForce]

Horatio Hornblower looks like we got a greek over here

[@horatiohornblower3031]

Swear down m8 on me nan, I'll rek you with my citizen cav. ;)

[@UgandanAirForce]

Horatio Hornblower i'll use my heavy onager spam on u!

[@arjunanil6792]

The Julii intro always gets into my head

[@cadian122]

I relate most to the Greek intro (they are my favourite faction as well And 2nd most the the Barbarians (although I never played with any of them)

[@pikador81]

I played with all the factons... Parthia and Seleucid were most dificult for me. Rome is definitely the one I love playing the most, then Cartage, Greeks and Egypt. The rest are not so inviting to me. The Roma Surrectum mode is awesome, I got it a few months ago and I LOVE IT! It takes the game on a whole new level... Can't wait for Rome 2 to come out...

[@stephengayton5246]

Literally the best computer game I've ever played I just wish you could play as pontus or armenia without a mod

[@GooseGumlizzard]

you don't even need the mod you can just edit one of the campaign desc files and unlock every faction even rebels

[@CptKalamity]

I love how you can compare the Barbarian intro with the Warpath Campaign trailer.

[@famoustran]

I love the Carthage one, it was so eerie

[@amuktadir1991]

TRUE NATURE OF GOOD FACE AND YELLOW OF WW-1.

[@capekee1303]

anyone else come back here because of the need to cleanse their eyes from the recycled filth of attila's faction openings?

[@dieselface1]

Attila is still a really good game though

[@tylerchurch2373]

Every Attila intro started exactly the same

[@amuktadir1991]

YEAH SIR THAT HW THEY R KNOWN AFTER WW-1,LAST WW-3.

[@Bipedalius]

The Greek intro is the best (the music).

[@Macgarnickle]

He's a priest of Bhaal the implication was that the children were going to be sacrificed and hence wouldn't keep him up with noise. Stories of child sacrifice in Carthage are overstated but they have archaeological evidence that it happened.

[@ric4567]

7:27: "Make Greece Great again"

[@shrikefromthetimetombs4281]

Goosebumps! Hellas❤️⚡💛

[@sushanalone]

Is there a mod that adds these intros to Rome 2? Adds soo much immersion at so little production cost.

[@dededeehh]

You're right, the popular belief was that the earth was the center, but the guy said "the world turns," the world includes everything, and they did believe that everything revolved around the world. So, the world did turn lol

[@grantburtner6456]

Scipii intro is the coolest!

[@onelividguardsman5681]

that brutii profile pic tho.

[@nuttawutnumpet3393]

Carthage 2:40 'last night the cry of the children kept me awake', you sacrificed the childern.

[@JonatasAdoM]

Always avoided carthage, something irks me about them (same with playing Mordor anywhere else). Glad to see their intro perpetuates it.

[@nathanielrourke8886]

Me too

[@monkofdarktimes]

Sacrifice the Child

[@JonatasAdoM]

Wish I had time to delve into this game again.

[@sonofnikator4819]

Brutii knife in Caesar back.

[@Stug50]

It was announced that "Completely scalable experience, with performance optimised for your PC or laptop. Witness the awesome scale of Total War: Rome II, no matter what your spec." dont believe me ? , look at they're main site . ;3

[@sbastianbrilyanto4722]

We Rome 1 fans are the only true Total War fans. We saved Total War. We drove out the fake fans. We made the Total War community. The fandom deserve respect for that. Respect and obedience! We know what is best for Total War. New remasters! Mods! Forums! New members! We know what must be done. Sega looked down their "streamlined" gameplay at all Rome 1 fans and they hate us! We're going to give them a reason to hate... when we've crushed them! Total War games, that's the answer. Total war games in the CA fist. And the other Total War games. Rome 2. TRASH! They have no respect for proper Total War gameplay. Atilla prostitute themselves. As if the normies matter! we Rome 1 fans must lead the Total War fandom.

[@transmissions-p1g]

I think we can all agree that the Julii one is the most iconic.

[@georgiy9529k]

Эх... Ностальгия...:(

[@TheSlee2]

Even after all this time I'm still addicted to this game

[@martjnmao9815]

Romans with American accents...

[@zmaj54]

In one of the early videos they made they said they would try to keep the minimum system requirements similar to that of Shogun 2 total war.

[@meriQX]

The Carthaginian intro sucks ... Scipii intro = best intro!

[@servantofallah1698]

Ikr XD

[@meriQX]

Lion Of Yoktan But on the other side, it's the funniest intro ... sounds like a crazy scientist from a cartoon who plans to conquer the world! ^^

[@servantofallah1698]

merikurisumasu10 yeah lol

[@aquilax5896]

Carthage always sucked... Come at me puniis

[@Keisok]

It took you three wars to beat them down, and they couldn't even be arsed to fight for themselves. Get gud Rome.

[@JimmyEatWorld55]

I like the barbarian one. The guy sounds badass

[@N9mber]

way better was rome 2

[@irene_deneb]

With a simple mod. The Thrace campaign is actually quite fun.
