Just by looking at Medieval 2 one would think that Cagliari is the most popular holiday destination in history

[@ToNerdistoHumanTNH]

It is truly bonkers just how popular it is on this game!

[@EthanVerstak]

I remember I was early-mid game France and I captured Cagliari. My main armies were busy fighting Portugal and later milan and Venice. Unfortunately, the moors began attacking Cagliari. As such I repelled them and began building up the garrison there. Later Sicily attacked me. The problem I have with them was they came with a DOOMSTACK of dismounted Norman knights and Muslim archers with Norman cav. And they did this every 5-10 turns landing one next to Cagliari. The only reason I survived was cheesing the ai while I fired catapults at their grouped up army. Then after I had a free army I began attacking Sicily. BUT THEN Spain attacks?? In total cagliari got besieged 27 times by 3 factions.

[@MummyNapkin970]

@@EthanVerstak It's an absolute flytrap and I usually don't even go for it anymore. The cost of defending it from EVERYONE is just not worth the mid income. (It also weirdly has a heretic problem) I only take it when all factions that covet it are dead and it can be converted to a city

[@EthanVerstak]

@@MummyNapkin970my theory is that when ai has nothing to do, they’ll attack a “rebel settlement” the problem is that with island cities they are always considered as rebel and unless they see the army too big, they’ll be dead set on taking it. Well it’s my theory atleast. It might just be the ai being ai

[@MummyNapkin970]

@@EthanVerstak Yeah maybe. Also I think some AI factions are hard-coded to covet certain cities. Like Milan and Dijon, or Portugals weird obsession with Ireland and Wales

[@ToNerdistoHumanTNH]

Livestreams return this Sunday at 15:00 BST where we continue the adventures of Pontus in Rome Total War! I hope you enjoyed this short form version of my series. Do let me know what you make of the format in the comments :)

[@aravs48]

I would LOVE more of the full campaigns edited together into videos like this!!! And now I know about the pacifist series so i can go back and watch it. Synergy at its best.

[@SirSteveSteveson]

I forgot just how insane the ending to this is! Great to relive it. :D

[@richardtaylor215]

What a wacky campaign this was!

[@SirSteveSteveson]

Absolutely silly!

[@nicolomatias2223]

Always a delight to watch your videos.

[@nikolozgilles]

Pope playthroughs are always a joy

[@James1S6237]

You need to some day hopefully make all in BI Romano British, & Celts campaign. God Bless you and your Family!!!

[@ToNerdistoHumanTNH]

I would like to look at their campaigns! :D

[@ares106]

This is how you do a let’s play. Not 50 2 hour videos nobody has time to watch.

[@ToNerdistoHumanTNH]

Cheers for the endorsement! :D

[@maxximo2367]

Well in all honesty, I really enjoy the long term campains. Its always a treat watching them after a long day when I dont have time to play myself. Having several parts just adds to the proper campain feeling with all its hustles n obstacles and ofc, shenanigans :D

[@JayU10]

I agree in the sense that sometimes a campaign runs too far ahead of me. I'm currently still on episode 6 of the Teutonic Rebels campaign when this gem of a video dropped 😂

[@minnie988]

Victory and glory!

[@JayU10]

Oh, joy! 😂

[@TheCleanerDragon]

Truly incredible run. Now you just need to mod the papal states into the Americas campaign and finish the crusade.

[@defaultchannel733]

Please play as indians in Empire Total War :) It's fun, I promise

[@ToNerdistoHumanTNH]

That could be a very fun way of returning to Empire!

[@noraandersson7822]

Love the Milanese clips in the intro. Excellent forboding!

[@youseffsalib4459]

An epic campaign! :D

[@JayU10]

I love this a review and look back by those who have already watched it, but I urge all of those who haven't to check it out. Such a fun, tongue-in-cheek journey of complete buffoonery. Can't wait to see Amy and Paula as well❤

[@VitorEmanuelOliver]

This run gave us an important lesson. Sometimes peace requires not handing the land you take over and defeating the enemy. Otherwise you're in a constant loop of aggression and ceasefire

[@drago_6812]

you should make more edits like this of your campaigns, this video is very well made and entertaining

[@Sharnoy1]

What a peaceful pacifist campaign that was :P Great job man!

[@bartosek05]

Recently I started similar Papal States campaign but with some extra twists. The main goal of my campaing is to roleplay as Santa Pope, keeping all and only Catholic factions alive by all means necessary. To make things extra spicy, I started playing the Vanilla Kingdoms mod which adds several new (mainly Catholic) factions. Having the map so overcrowded and the fact that many factions start with just one province, it is a real challenge to prevent your fellow Cristians from killing each other. Right now I am in the midst of Timurid invasion and preparing to sail to the new world. The border gore is out of this world since I don't cheat with removing the fog of war and it is hard to track who owns what. Theonly downside is that it is easy to run out of valid crusade targets.

[@plokijm22]

That Papal speech was... something

[@hannahneal1601]

This is about as apcifist as the pope can be in fairness! 😂

[@redcoatgaming4141]

Well no Alexiad in this timeline since that inquistor bloody canciled the woman who wrote it.

[@bubee8123]

The edit is cool and I liked it but I like both versions. This seems to be a lot more work and got you more views if I am not mistaken.

[@elliot6584]

Hey TNH! Love your content, but I would like to make a request. Have you considered uploading the culmination of all your modding prowess that improves these base game/vanilla features (improved pikes, diplomacy, muskets, etc) onto ModDB or TWC? I'm fairly good at getting all this stuff done, but I have to redo it when i come back to MTW2 every couple months. Love your videos and keep up the good work man.

[@SouthernRex-1994]

medium unit size? *retches*

[@TheGoldennach]

Amazing!!!

[@Kuan9297]

Good work!😁😁😁

[@ludaMerlin69]

The background music is awful, and I don't know why all the youtubers are picking that song.

[@noraandersson7822]

What are you on about? 😅

[@GirolamoZanchi_is_cool]

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; - Romans 3:23 And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. -Jeremiah 29:13 “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. -John 3:16 Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out. -Acts 3:19 If you’re in North America, please go check out any of the churches available to you: PCA, OPC, Rpcna, Urcna, or a Canrc church. (These are conservative and actual Reformed/Presbyterian churches) If you’re Scottish, I recommend the Free Church of Scotland and the APC (Different from the Church of Scotland) If you’re English I recommend the Evangelical Presbyterian Church in England & Wales and the Free Church of England (Different from the Church of England) Also online you can look up church finders for each of the groups, it’ll show you locations. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. - Hebrews 10:24-25
