[@ahmadabed2127]

I just wanted to say that the strongest cav is the byzantine cataphracts and they can beat the french lancers because they have armor piercing

[@flaviusstilicho1239]

Gothic Knights as well

[@tyler71717]

Fatimid's mamluks are wonderful, royal mamluks are a+ tier, their axemen are among best infantry in the game, heavy archers are strong, heavy spearman are strong, their military is at least a 4/5 until guns.

[@strategydux]

It is good especially because their economy can help them grow fast but i feel that Turks have better roster and that western countries from list can counter them easier than they can counter them :D But definitely they are really strong

[@martinsmith4711]

Nice informative video. Well done Sir!

[@strategydux]

Thanks buddy glad you enjoyed. Check my worst factions or top cities as well. I will make some more medieval 2 in future i am coming back :D

[@RazzorMr]

It's great that I found your channel, very cool content with us on Polish youtube lacks materials about Stainless Steel. I would like to know your honest opinion about the faction of the Kingdom of Poland :D

[@strategydux]

Sorry for later respond. Honest opinion about Polish faction is that they have the greatest potential out of all Slavic and eastern europe factions for easier conquest and fast expansion. They are not the same level like some other military powerhouses but have access to great allies and have well rounded army which people easily underestimate and thus they get rekt :D

[@orestisapostolidis5578]

Can you tell me if there is a different version of Stainless Steel you made a video about,because the one i have downloaded does not have all these units listed as recruitable.Actually i can see a huge difference in what you can recruit and what i can.

[@strategydux]

There is early and late era and also there is i think called historical recruitment system or realistic recruitment system. That will instantly unlock all of the units from that period and you dont have to wait curtain amount of turns for them to be available :)

[@orestisapostolidis5578]

@@strategydux Thank you so much

[@schmid1.079]

You somehow managed to avoid the iberian peninsula completely, not even as a goal for conquering. :D

[@strategydux]

Hahaha you are right mate. I have and it is a good place to conquer. Maybe I should make top 5 places to conquer in Medieval 2 what do you say?

[@schmid1.079]

Good idea. Some are obvious (Britain), but I'm curious what some other regions might have to offer.

[@strategydux]

@@schmid1.079 than top 10 might be better as some of the choices will be obvious i think hahaha. But I will think about it as well

[@kimjongun1348]

As they don't have the Americas, both crowns are pretty much useless.

[@nick4039]

great video thanks

[@strategydux]

Thanks there is top 10 worst factions also

[@tannerworm]

Great video!! What do you think about Norovgod

[@strategydux]

So stretched faction but with access to some luxury goods :D Units are not that great tbh

[@tannerworm]

@@strategydux nice to hear what you think

[@theasiangod]

Am I able to play as the crusader states or Papal States in multiplayer? If so how?

[@strategydux]

Yes, but Medieval doesnt have a regular MP games you have to make hotseats and trade saved games all the time it is not worth it :D

[@serdareski3325]

Hey man great video. I am new to the mod so can you explain to me what exactly libraries and universities do? And which buildings should I prioritize building???

[@serdareski3325]

A beginner's guide to stainless steel mod would also be greatly appreciated.

[@strategydux]

Hey, thanks for commenting it's a good idea for videos. I will make some videos on behinners guide for SS for economy and town management and General gameplay. Gowever it will be in about 2 weeks due to stuff in que I have already :)

[@badibae7870]

At the start you should focus on building an income buildings like farms/mines at the start in the Towns. Also remember to ugrade your building in the Castles to have an access to better units.

[@noodle8881]

late to it, anyway Administratively minded generals can learn positive traits with libraries/universities.

[@serdareski3325]

@@noodle8881 I moved onto Warhammer 3, but thx still bro😃

[@lockdownmedia6403]

Good vid

[@strategydux]

Thanks. There are tol 5 worst factions up as well. I'll make similar videos on Rome Remaster when it release this week

[@shogunego1187]

How do you unlock the expanded roster from the start of the game?

[@strategydux]

This is Stainless Steel mod. But for classic vanilla game you can do it by changing the factions in txt document in files. You can look it up on youtube just type this question

[@Kinuhbud]

Wow did not expect France to be number 1, and surprised Venice wasn't on the list.

[@turkmagidoo2732]

Venice has no good generals.. moronic unites but stronk ships

[@Kinuhbud]

@@turkmagidoo2732 just gotta develop your generals, no? I think Venice is just an easy faction--I don't know what I was thinking when I commented that.

[@turkmagidoo2732]

@@Kinuhbud i play medium camping and medium battle bruhh. I also picked all hard thingz during setup menü. Tho byzantines fucking over powered. Kicking me and my alies hungary's ass.. May be i should play in easy mod.

[@turkmagidoo2732]

@@Kinuhbud even 5 ringed loyality general has been Traitor. 😤😤 This game is so hard as Venice. İ pick medium and medium. At best i d be the Turks

[@strategydux]

Venice is nice faction its just their position is bad :/

[@Szpareq]

Ouch, stats of English archers are really poor. I only did 1 campaign of Byzantium in SS and it was infuriating that I didn't really have access to good archers. Turns out Mouratoi (locals you recruit from Anatolia/Balkans) are pretty much the same.

[@strategydux]

Yea your roster is not well rounded and prepared for the foes you are bordering. English surprisingly have best infantry

[@Gudtec]

Seljuk position in early era is a mess! You got literally only enemys

[@strategydux]

It' a free real estate my man :D hahaha you have best rebel cities to conquer early game and great position to bring down Egypt and Persia because of the other external foes

[@cenktuneygok8986]

Holy shit, lancers have 27 armor. That is nearly unkillable.

[@strategydux]

Chunky boiz

[@malice9830]

How do i find this mod

[@atwilliux456]

Luke up stainless steel download and follow the directions

[@rudolphschmidt313]

Darude-sandstorm

[@herewegoagain1140]

Kingdom of Aragon is so great too!

[@strategydux]

Yea it is also really nice :) It is just that it doesn't have early advantage compared to these factions

[@ethangarmany9062]

I just finished a game as them. Took over all of Spain, Africa, Italy, Greece, and France. The Montesa foot knights are some of the best infantry in the game. They beat polearm knights, any Muslim infantry, and even imperial knights and venetian infantry.

[@ayatcha7928]

Venice is the best faction!

[@strategydux]

Venice is a great faction, thanks for sharing your favorite faction bro

[@ayatcha7928]

Take a shot each time he says "really". Actually, don't. Take pity on your liver. You will die.

[@strategydux]

I am really really sorry for any poor soul that will really fuck up his liver because of me. Hahaha I really am :D

[@matinmehdipoor3000]

Holy Roman's position is not that good

[@strategydux]

Depends how you look at it. It can be tricky late game but it is also a perfect middle man which can chose either to unite east or west painting it in black :D
