The Viking General
Нидерланды
Добавлен 27 фев 2021
Welcome to my humble channel. I'm The Viking General and as my name implies, I like to play strategy games, although I'm not the best at it. I want to offer a more laid back and relaxed viewing expierience during gameplay, without shouting and almost no swearing.
Right now I'm focusing mostly on Shogun 2, but I will probably also make 2-minutes explanation videos on the Rome 1 Total War remaster, and in the future Warhammer. I am not naturally short and concise in my natural way of speaking, so these 2 minute videos are a great way for me to exercise how to be to the point.
My favourite strategy games are virutally the entire total war franchise and all paradox games. So if you like to see something from one of those games, let me know!

Oracles of Tzeentch Short Faction Overview - Total War: Warhammer 3
Hello everyone! This video is a short introduction to the inner workings of the mechanics and battlefield prowess of the Oracles of Tzeentch. In just a few minutes I'll explain as much about the faction as I can, focused on their mechanics and the army. I won't be diving into opening strategies, as that will be a topic on its own.
This video is perfect to watch when you are not sure what to expect and you want to get as much information in as little time as possible. For example when you're on the toilet when you should actually be working.
Oh, and be sure to tell your friends, family and that weird person you met 2 weeks ago about these videos.

I usually don't auto resolve ever, *except* for siege
Anyone from 2024-2025 and wish there will be a shogun 3?
Thanks man, great tips.
Does this archer bait tactic not work anymore? Cause I keep trying to do it, ashigaru starting to get fired at and then just backing a little bit back, but then when i try and take my archers around all the enemy archers start moving too
Sorry but what is the warhorses resource????
ARIGATO
i really struggle to keep my army losses low during attacking, defending is fine
yari Ashigaru.... hold my rice sack ooo noble samurai
I' m doing a domination campaign as Tanegashima (XL Modded Map) and noticed a nice interaction. When I was simply focusing on Kyushu, my Resources Value capped at normal values. But then...i decided to send a ship to unlock all clans on the map...and the chaos started. My Resources values are increasing each turn, snowballing without even the use of a single Trade Route. I think the increase in price is directly influenced by the number of provinces...a bit OP hidden mechanic i think.
Great vod. I know I am late to the party but a perfectly valid strategy I have been employing to great effect is running as fast as I can at the enemy and then at the last possible second going into yari wall and ordering them to attack, or even just ordering them to move the yari wall to the other side of the enemy unit. This is the best way to turn a hyper defensive unit into a really cheap and surprisingly competent offensive unit.
In shogun 2 bow are better than boomstick, but in real life it's the opposite
Oda have a thing where they can carry with only ashigaru
They are hard to be useful if enemies can reach them If they cannot, tho...man do they cause some damage
horses are SS tier because AI will pay you thousands for your trade deals once you have them
Whats the bg tune
i upgrade their attack instead of armor cuz idk
yes, they are better with attack upgrade
F archery guns all the way 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅
Had to play this game again after watching Shogun series on tv , not waiting for season 2 I'll do it my self
my campaign army consists of only yari ashigaru and bow ashigaru
I played this video at half speed.
My favourite unit.
Hallowed Ground is the worst if your Christian. Kind of weird you can't convert them to a monastery or re-dedicate to a Christian Saint.
Hypothetical question since im playing vanilla, but what if you just played shimazu and converted to Christianity really early on. 2 turn imported matchlocks until the ashigaru/samurai unlock mid-late game.. would that be a decent firearm-centric campaign? Importeds don’t have to be amazing as long as they’re the only matchlocks on the field right? lol
What specs and setup are you all playing it with to get it looking that prime? I'm still messing around on Windows 7 and. Sony Vaio from 2008.
the shrine strongest perk is not even the monk level, it's the insane +3 morale to all land units.
I really don't get how any of these Shogun 2 youtubers are not capitalising on the hype around the TV series Shogun. You guys are literally sitting on a gold mine
I'm surprised the Oda don't have a unique Matchlock Ashigaru, since Nobunaga used them against the Takeda quite effectively.
i rememeber trolling castle defenders with these in multiplayer back in 2011
thanks now i dont have to lose 50% of my army
Were are you?
love how compact your vidoes are and it doesn't take an hour or half to watch it
lovely video, thanks again
thanks for the video
Nobunaga was a Daimyo not Samurai
Im going to play me some Shogun 2, best total war ever.
Best unit ever, in any total war game, bow ashigaru to.
Thank you for sharing.
Can you please remake this video? There is a lot of valuable information, but it's just too fast and i can't understand a word. Thank you
thanks for all of these tutorials
I have the problem that few clans ever declare war on me and, being a vassal of the Imagawa, I'm unable to declare war on anyone else. That means that expanding borders as the Tokugawa is almost impossible without going to war with the Imagawa.
Want to win offensive and defensive seigebattles? Chosocabe bow monks with exceptional accuracy
Its good to have a small to medium sized army(without general your willing to lose) and just defend until your all dead. The ai will susstain way to many casualties to defend when you send in your real army to retake control.
I unironically ended a campaign because I keep getting Naginata doom stacks
They are IMO the best frontline unit in campaign
How to win an offensive siege battle: 1.Continue siege 2.Annihilate enemy in field battle 3.Profit
dutch?????
For the "other" option in you finance, how do you increase it, as mine is stuck on 1200 koku I am not sure I fully understand what "other" is
I don't get why people say you never gonna build it anyway. You don't have to finish campaign in 1575, you still have 25 years
Hahahahaha to expensive give me ashigaro and 5 bow samurai 4 of any horse unit
So true for the last part. Be nice to add that hopefully the ai would attempt the same by rng switching seats with youSo true for the last part. Be nice to add that hopefully the ai would attempt the same by rng switching seats with you
Why is everyone hating navies? I really cannot imagine wining any camping without defending trade, raiding trade routes, defending from invasions. Am i playing this game wrong?
