I dont mean to be so off topic but does any of you know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb lost my login password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me
@Braylon Judson thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and im in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Quality audio and clear articulation and intonation on voice. A pleasure to listen to. Liked and Subscribed. Keep up the good. Considering donating if you do other warlords as well ;)
Nice video, i now know almost everything :) I played with my boy Gongsun Zan and was really missing some special mechanics with him. Wish they added more of this stuff to other characters, but the game has so much nuance already that i understand the reason. Keep up the good work, i watched every guide video you did on 3K, i will be a warlord in no time.
Hahah thanks man! you'll get it all quickly, i'm not super hero here. it really just takes losing one or two campaigns HORRIBLY hah. i crashed and burned maybe two or three entire campaigns before it started to click
ItalianSpartacus i menaged to take all north territories including previous Ma Teng lands and then crushed and burned as all my cities revolted becouse i could create farmlands fast enoigj and they starves to death xD i know what you mean xD
Two things about Liu Bei Integration mechanic. You can Integrate a settlement of the Han Empire even if there is a general inside. Slightly move the cursor to the left or the right of the center of the city and you can actually get to the city without attacking it and integrate it. Another good advice is that you can integrate a city even with forced march, which means that you can integrate Langye city in turn 3 and integrate the livestock farm in Langye in turn 4, allowing you to attack the fishing port in turn 5, take the farm in Donglai in turn 6 and the city in Donglai in turn 7 or 8. Allowing you to snowball Liu Bei extremely fast. With a good non-agression pact with Tao Qian and Kong Rong that leaves all your home provinces completely safe.
@@kittykattzee Perhaps it happens because you take Langye small city in turn 2. I wait for the mission in turn 3 after completing the 17 units mission in turn 2. Huangshao and Kong Rong make the exact same moves if you also make the same moves. Huangshao moves his army to Taishan in turn 2, then recruits in turn 3 and attacks Beihai in turn 4-5. Kong Rong takes Beihai farm (I think) in turn 1. However, if you don't take Langye in turn 2 but only move your army right to the border between Langye and Dong Iron Mine and start recruiting, Kong Rong seems to decide to take his army to Taishan trade port instead of taking Langye lumberyard. Or at least that's how it's been in my last 10 trial starts I've made to see if I can replicate the same behavior.
For pronounciation, I will just leave the cinese in the brackets so ppl can google translate and use the pronouciation there. Yuan Shao's special units: Warriors of Ye(邺)pronounced as Year without the r (kinda like "yeah") and Defenders of Hebei(河北) as Her Bay (slightly off intonation but close enough). Probably there is a pinyin guide for English speakers online somewhere, too, if you are interested. 'E' is always pronounced like 'er' in pinyin (but ofc with the intonation chang depending on the word) and 'ei' is always 'ay' (like the letter A) PS: Jian (Sword剑) is always pronounced wrong in the same way somehow. Its pronounciation can be broken down into Jee-yee-an. But Google Translate's pronounciation is much easier for the pronounciation haha.
awesome thank you so much! i apologize for the mispronunciations and any disrespect that might cause. For Warriors of Ye - is that a hard "H" sound like, "Warriors of Yeh" or is it a soft like "Warriors of Ya" ? HER BAY! THAT was it, I knew I messed that one badly. Got it thank you! Ah so the rules for "e" and "ei" are similar to the rules on how to pronounce "z" and "j" then as far as the letter being indicative of a specific sound
@@italianspartacus Ofc there is no disrepect haha. No one knows every language :P Ye is more like Yeh so hard H. Dunno much about the z and j rules (coz i learnt English purely by using it a lot) but for Chinese pinyin, all vowel letter (or combination ones like ei,ou etc) have a single sound (or 5 if you count the 4 intonation + lack of intonation indicating a light soft sound)
ItalianSpartacus I would say it’s Her Bay but hide the r in Her and make it more like Huh Bay. Also say the bay is more like bayh, so bay with a little h at the end. But say that super fast.
o my god .. I've been playing Sun Jian for over 10 hours. I was aware of the positive effect of heriosm. But i was not aware of the special 'full retinue'/Mercenary outpost i can do. Thanks a lot for this (and your other informative) video's.
Why are there so few comments and like/dislikes? You've got a fair number of subscribers and its a good video. Seems odd that there'd be so little traffic.
Hey man thanks so much for making this. These videos really helped me! Can you talk about how to keep your court happy ? What do you do when everyone gets unhappy :/
Sorry I saw an error in your video. for Liu Bei, even when a Han army is inside of a city you can still annex the city which is followed by the stationed army being kicked out into the world. You just right click the city when your able to move in and it'll give you the option no matter what
Okay thats good to know. I tried it on a previous save before I did this and the save itself might have been from an older build... So I'm glad to know that an army CAN be garrsioned and it'll still work. Thanks for the correction my dude :D
@@italianspartacus I was just about to type this correction. They might have changed it since pre-release, but it's definitely nicer than being restricted to empty settlements.
Can you explain to me, and I'm probably not alone, how units work with lords, for example, Guan Yu is a champion (hero vs hero) and that is focused on the resolve tree of the character, does having troops that follow the same tree (so to speak) give bonuses or it does fuck all and it's mainly the stats and retinue bonus is all that matters?
So yes and no... Most of the time, a character will give battle map bonuses to specific units if not the entire army. Those units are TYPICALLY the ones used by his class. I. E. Sun Ce gives bonuses to Cavalry in his retinue (might be commanding army, have to check) innately. With that being said, all classes will have skills to unlock that benefit one or all of the following: the army, the retinue, or specific unit types. Strategists can unlock flaming arrows which benefit all archers. Vanguard can unlock increased battle speed for their own retinue which would benefit all units, but Cav especially. Does that help??
I'd never seen the clip of Cao Cao playing Go before and was very disappointed to see him appearing to slide a stone sideways into place. You NEVER do that. You always place the stone straight down into position.
Does the Cao Cao garrsion farm change the map? The regular farm is open farm fields? Maybe the garrsion farm is in a town like a mine is and harder to take?
When something says it gives "+4 Lineage", such as theYuan Administration Office... is that per turn? And so that number plus whatever else he's getting per turn (can you find that somewhere?) is then subtracted depending on what tier it is currently in (decay count)?
I lost with Zheng Jang twice because I didn't build the bandit lair and then on the 3rd go I managed to hold back 3 armies of Yuan Shao with one of mine because of the recovery between each turn of attacks
Are you on the go a lot? Go laptop. If not.. And you have money to burn, corsair has their new pre-made ones for like 2500.. Not bad tbh.. But if you don't want to build it.. Newegg.com provides a lot of solid pre built machines.. I'd get a minimum 16gb of RAM, 1TB SSD, RTX 2070! Hope that helps. For a laptop... 16gb of RAM, 500GB SSD, RTX/GTX 2060/1060. Get XX70 series GPU if you can spring for it
Thank you for this. I started as Liu Bei yesterday and did ok, but for example had no idea about anexation as a mechanic. Dong seems super fun, cant wait to force people to do stuff. As Liu Bei people just dont want to become vassals :/
Yuan shu seems hard getting vassals is pretty difficult, I completed a Yuan shoa his brothers campaign and only had one vassal at a time. I vassaled two factions that were basically dead and were destroyed shortly after, and another one that had three territories but by that time I had basically won. It seems like ai only agree to vassalage when their basically dead, and sometimes times they betray you.
Really loving and frankly needing these vids IS. I am a handful of turns into my Cao Cao campaign and for some reason Diplomacy and the ability to press negotiate on the faction menu down the right is greyed out. Any advice please?
This is my first total war game and i'm absolutely loving it. With that being said, I'm constantly facing low public order due to population, and i still don't know why. Originally i thought that my cities were too small for my growing population, so i've been focusing on growing my cities, but it turns out the cities that are happiest are actually maxed out, and the ones where order is lowest the cities still have a good 500k-1M before maxing. Then i thought it could be due to the lack of food, but my main city chen, has a maxed population and the highest surplus of food and i get a -18 from population!!! Then I figured it could be due to population growth, so comparing my happiest city with a max population of 1.5M and a growth of 50K gave me -6 order from population. My unhappiest commandery had a population of 2.1M out of 2.5M, and a growth of 50K without the public order debuff, and 38K with the public order debuff. That city has a public order of -12 from population. SO YEA, im completely lost and this is getting annoying, anyone know how this works? Edit: Oh btw when i captured the emperor it says im able to annex the han empire at a cost, but when i hover over the option it just says i can't. I havent guaranteed autonomy or anything, so again i've got no idea why.
This game is definitely hard as when you get any head way people coalition against you and you can’t pump out enough armies, Lei Bei is the only one I’m having success with as his generals starting out are better then anyone’s and his -50% upkeep for militia is the only way you can somewhat pump out the same number of armies as the npcs. Diplomacy is awesome, just wish there was more troop variation.
I started my first campaign as Gongsun Zan. Sad he doesn't have a special currency, but he's been fun for 50 turns so far. I love the political struggle as much as the wars.
@@RichardClark-hw6ic I'm about 52 turns in at this point, and mostly have Yuan Shao on the ropes. I should have had him finished off by now, but he accepted a vasselage to get out of war with me and I had to stall for a few turns to make sure when I attacked, Dong Ming would drop his ass rather than get into a fight with me. He should done within the year. I did a 40 turn test run, but I got into coalitions way too early and soon I was at war with a ton of enemies and while my army was kick ass, I couldn't be everywhere at once. This time, I consolidated the eastern corned, then started pushing outward. Securing that seaport and boosting my Commerce economy was huge. I can't remember the general's name, but one of the blue guys can recruit light catapults. At level 1, they aren't super great. Mine are at lvl 6 and the flame shot is OP as hell and just murders infantry blobs, especially the militia units.
@@RichardClark-hw6ic I did the same on my first quick run to get a feel for the campaign playstyle. Definitely efficient to clear and lock down the protected flank so you can expand outward with the rear and flanks more or less protected by mountains and the sea. Good luck!
Can guide how to play cao cao. I have a very hard time in him. Need your little help. what building to build to increase income , and what army to deploy?
So much inaccuracies. Didnt expect such low quality from a long time TW youtuber like yourself. Yellow Turbans also get access to captains. Liu Bei isnt "archery focused". He's a commander, just like Cao Cao. He has low cunning. He only has 1 archery perk - Fire Arrows. All his other perks are general faction and army buffs. etc etc
1. Yellow Turban is DLC 2. Liu Bei's FACTION is with their unique unit being archers. Sorry you feel that way man, it does seem that you have me a little confused on some notions, but we all make mistakes here and there. If you find others, please let me know
@@italianspartacus Yes, and those archers have better melee stats, but less ammo. So, how "good" they are is debatable as they're a borderline hybrid that runs out of shots sooner than a regular archer.
@@italianspartacus Mine not only has a lock on it, I have looked at another Cao broadcaster and his is locked also, so you must have done something to unlock it? Are you in Romance mode?
im playing as Yuan Shao and the diplomacy tab is blacked out... i can only do things related to diplomacy when another faction starts it, anything im missing?
@@j.i.709 yeah im in a coalition with Cao Cao, altough the diplomacy tab was blacked out even before that.... and does being in a coalition stop me from even opening the diplomacy tab.
Indig3nousLif3 no it shouldnt. If ur in a coalition most of the possible treaties with factions outside the coalition will be blacked out but not the diplomacy tab entirely..
@@italianspartacus If nothing else, it gives the script some character x) "Base game gives you 12 different warlords to command" was the first alternative that came to mind. But who am I to give you advice; I'm not the one with 36K subscribers ^^' The vid, as a whole, was informative and entertaining :)
Cao Cao's economy feels the weakest tbh. Peasantry income is way less potent than commerce for example. I stacked the shit out of peasantry income modifiers (tech, buildings, assingments, admins, high pop etc.) and it was still low. Doing the same with commerce on Sun Jian gave me several times higher income way earlier in the game. Only thing left is to sell all that food, but that is dependant on finding someone who needs it and offers a good deal etc. Not very self sufficient.
A bit dissapointed at how the soldier unit cards look.. :( Looks almost worst than medieval 2. Wish there was a way you could differentiate easier. This game is already overwhelming and this kind of stuff is not helping. Also impacts cosmetics/polish. Sorry for the rant. Great video btw. Thanks!
That's on RUclips's end - it takes them time to process HD qualities, so videos are sometimes only viewable on lower resolutions shortly after going live. You published this comment about 9 min after the video went up, so it's not surprising that the HD resolutions haven't finished yet. If you look at his other videos, they have them.

@@italianspartacus Yes, and those archers have better melee stats, but less ammo. So, how "good" they are is debatable as they're a borderline hybrid that runs out of shots sooner than a regular archer.
How do I unlock Grain garrisons? I can't see it on the reform tree? tree
It's there by default!
@@italianspartacus No mine has a lock on it???
@@italianspartacus Mine not only has a lock on it, I have looked at another Cao broadcaster and his is locked also, so you must have done something to unlock it? Are you in Romance mode?
im playing as Yuan Shao and the diplomacy tab is blacked out... i can only do things related to diplomacy when another faction starts it, anything im missing?
Indig3nousLif3 u might be in a coalition with someone check it out
@@j.i.709 yeah im in a coalition with Cao Cao, altough the diplomacy tab was blacked out even before that.... and does being in a coalition stop me from even opening the diplomacy tab.
Indig3nousLif3 no it shouldnt. If ur in a coalition most of the possible treaties with factions outside the coalition will be blacked out but not the diplomacy tab entirely..
@@j.i.709 yeah the entire diplomacy tab has been blacked out for most of the game...
Indig3nousLif3 strange that shouldnt be, unless its a triggered hidden mechanic we are not aware of yet. Are u late game perhaps?
Good stuff
Yellow turbans please!
The very first sentence in this bothers me. "...over 11 warlords..." I'm sorry, but that just sounds weird :D Like, oddly specific.
hahah well i felt weird saying "14 warlords" because 3 of them are DLC! :D
@@italianspartacus If nothing else, it gives the script some character x) "Base game gives you 12 different warlords to command" was the first alternative that came to mind. But who am I to give you advice; I'm not the one with 36K subscribers ^^' The vid, as a whole, was informative and entertaining :)
Ha! "Great Dong..." I see wut you did there.
WHERE IS KING KONG?
I'm sad now =(
34:00
@@vader1361 that's dying zhuo, not kong rong
At one point in the auto caption it claims you say "I'm gay" during the yuan shao section 🤣🤣
Hebei is pronounced like Huh Bay
Cao Cao's economy feels the weakest tbh. Peasantry income is way less potent than commerce for example. I stacked the shit out of peasantry income modifiers (tech, buildings, assingments, admins, high pop etc.) and it was still low. Doing the same with commerce on Sun Jian gave me several times higher income way earlier in the game.
Only thing left is to sell all that food, but that is dependant on finding someone who needs it and offers a good deal etc. Not very self sufficient.
I’m really looking forward to playing with Dong :-)
Pretty fitting that Cow Cow has access to a lot of farmland... 😉
🐮 🐄
I can confederate with cao cao at Maquis already...
A bit dissapointed at how the soldier unit cards look.. :( Looks almost worst than medieval 2. Wish there was a way you could differentiate easier. This game is already overwhelming and this kind of stuff is not helping. Also impacts cosmetics/polish. Sorry for the rant. Great video btw. Thanks!
Really the word "yuan shao" tilts you
Great video nontheless, keep it up
hahah not really, i'm much better at pronouncing it now :)
Hebei = Huh Bay
I’m just pissed that I can’t play this damn game so help please!!!
hey you missed at least one person but ok
Great vid but work on uploading quality
I mean 360p
That's on RUclips's end - it takes them time to process HD qualities, so videos are sometimes only viewable on lower resolutions shortly after going live. You published this comment about 9 min after the video went up, so it's not surprising that the HD resolutions haven't finished yet. If you look at his other videos, they have them.
Should be all fixed ;)
ItalianSpartacus yes 👍
The text size is too small can barely see. Sad I got to refund the game.
oh nooo i'm sorry man :( if you go to the interface, you can click "custom ui" and change the text to be bigger!
you refunded the game because of text size? lmao
Yellow Turbans get captain retinues as well
very true! since it's a "DLC" i sort of put them outside of the warlords that come "in the box" as it were
