You are a good man. Thank you.
It’s F1, not F11 for the help overlay in-game.
@@ianmflandersify I am addicted to this game!
ive played every total war since Rome 1 and this is the only game to have ever confused me to the point of needing a tutorial.
Agreed!
omg same
need a beast pc to survive a coalition siege too many armies
@@teemoshrooms9313 do you play all battles? I often sim it
this my first one and m having fun it what is the best total war game i should play next
Finally completed my first campaign as Cao Cao. I wish I knew that forming a coalition with Yuan Shu would be the biggest mistake ever. I failed my first playthough because I didn't manage public order and it ruined me. On my second playthrough it took me 250 turns to win because Yuan Shu declared war on the whole world, and I was completely outnumbered by enemies running circles around my lords and trashing up my lands...
Haha i did the same misstake Yuan Shu is a dickbag. I made him too powerful and even supported his legitimacy for some trade deals. Turns out he will quickly get to Duke and even get some vassals if you leave him be.
Bruh same.. After I formed my kingdom, my vassal made me wage war on the whole world. Now I'm fcked
@@MeldinX2 He provided a strong defensive border to the west and south in the early game, I even gave him lands to my south so that any enemy would have to go through him first. After 50 turns or so he just wouldn't play nice with any other faction. He had strong disagreements with the other people I brought in, went to war with people who were very friendly with me, and then by the end of the game he was such a mess he kept making yellow turban armies spawn at his cities, and then he died and lost all his land 10 turns before I won the game haha. That was at least satisfying.
@@DirEnGay In this game they actually modelled the characters after their real life counterparts, Yuan Shu was a real prick. Best dealt with asap. especially if you are playing as cao cao.
I also formed a coalition with Yuan shao. He quickly vassalised every single faction around me, so if i declared war on him i'd be declaring war on everyone
Sometimes a leader or a great hero is available for recruitement.
They have awesome ancilleries.
If you cant use him for youre faction you can hire him, take the ancilleries and then release from service.
Wonderful for someone like me who like Romane of the three kingdom book/lore, coming from dynasty warriors games franchise, this is another profound take for the lore it's just wonderful, the video is very informative thank you very much and keep 'em going (vids) !
Indeed
I took over Han Sui's home provinces and once he was not bordering me, (and a few turns later when I declared war against someone he was at war with) we started a coalition (not sure where the name of our coalition is) together.
go to diplomacy, button bottom right that says Faction Groups. Toggle that on.
*yuan shao and his 15 vassals has entered the chat
nine months later and a bunch of patvhes and dlc later Yuan Shao is still King of Vassals
The vassals have another 15 vassals each. :D
@@kevinzhu6417 Years later, some programmers made a game out of this chapter in history. The programmers titled it "Total War" and made lots of money out of making it.
So they have first perfected the battle gameplay, and now it's time to make the strategic map's turn! i love it!
This is the most confusing game, and that is saying something about brexit total war
Great video, this will certainly help with confusion I had when I first started a campaign!
Glad it helped!
First time i've heard someone pronounce Marquis as "Markwis" :D
Anyways, good guide! Thank you a lot! ;)
Playing with Radious mod so far I love it ! Over took a powerful neighbor to complete my mission and my empire is in-tacked , economy is strong and Generals are in good standing. So far I’m getting Shogun 2 vibes . As I’m playing shogun 2 along side this one 😂
Ah Yuan Shao... When i play as Liu Bei, he vassalized Cao Cao for 3 times and get betrayed 3 times. Classic Yuan Shao.
Gets a coalition with yuan shao and he declares war on half the bloody country. Then to top it all off after holding off hordes of armies invading my lands thanks to yuan shao. Yuan shugot extremely powerful and my armies were to diminished by the time he declared war on me. He took 4 major cities and 2 minor settlements before I could get a couple of armies there to stop him. Was too late losing that many territories in a sort period of time crippled my income and food supply for the kingdom. Play a 2nd game as Cao Cao again only this time I won't allow Yuan shu to live to long.
PS He Yi is a back stabbing prick aswell.
For me the diplomacy makes three kingdoms the top total war game, the voice acting is so immersive and sometimes you find yourself laughing at the desperate offers inferior war lords issue, showing their fear, confidence, humility etc etc a full range of emotions.
"You Monster" I chuckled a bit :D
Hehe im guilty of that in the past.
The game is amazing, battles and especially the map. 2 only things I hate are load times of course and the fact that it takes at least 4 terms for a unit to gather. When my army is somewhere looting and fighting on contract and someone attacks me, you can not just gather an army quickly .
@2:49 Second Mar-kwis? I'm pretty sure it's pronounced Mar-kee.
Either way is right. One way is French and one way is English.
@@MrTomFung "marquess" is the English spelling and is only used to refer to English nobility. If it is spelled "marquis" then it is pronounced in the French manner.
@@MrTomFung In America we still say it the French way...
@@SStoj He pronounced it correctly. Marquis is pronounced Maa-kwuhs in English, regardless of spelling.
Thanks, getting tired of illiterates.
Doesn't this mean that Commanders are next to useless as they do not get any elite units of their color when every other class gets two (except red you just get Jade Dragons). This means the ideal army no matter what is green, red, and blue. This is because they get great units and can cover each others weaknesses. Strategists are the most important as they give formations and archers so you always need to pick them. They are weak to melee cavalry so get spearmen (green) to counter that. Spearmen are in turn weak to melee infantry so get shock cavalry (red). Now you have the best units in the game and every army is exactly the same. You could replace spearmen with melee infantry I guess but why would you? They do not really fix any weakness and the elite green units are better than the elite purple units. There is even a unit called YELLOW DRAGONS and they are a purple unit.
The dragon units haven't been too impressive from what I've seen so far. The faction unique units are more interesting to me, and they are sometimes yellow and purple too. I get what you're saying about a balanced army and I agree, but it's also not particularly fun and sometimes beggars can't be choosers, not to mention if you have to bolster an army with a 2nd or 3rd army it would just be kinda boring with 3x blue 3x green 3x red filled with only dragons on a battlefiled. It's like playing Total War: Warhammer and having armies with only dragons in. That is also boring, and expensive on the upkeep might I add.
Well Liu Bei gets what I consider one of the worst units in the entire game especially for him specifically. His archers are expensive and their only selling point is melee stats. They also do not get his militia cost reduction and they are archers when his army wants cavalry. So I am not really interested in the unique units personally. The dragons seem interesting have not unlocked them yet but the green ones seem especially good having bows and spears. The only unique units that look good to me are the cavalry ones as the jade dragons are the only competition. Also with money being easy to come by in campaign it should not be hard to have at least 2 elite units per retinue. I just want them to add high end yellow units so it is not so one sided.
You are correct, Blue green and Red is the most balanced type of army; some factions can work around it because they are more flexible with the unique units such as Sun Jian mercenaries, so you can have flame arrows in a relative short time with a commander (yellow) character, provided he skill tree starts close to the skill itself.
I just looked through all the general abilities for each type. Commanders have some absolutely bonkers things that no other general gets. Here are their unique abilities (every general has a few yellow abilities in their tree, but these are the ones only commanders can get).
Unyielding Earth: +1900% charge resistance, +100% melee evasion, unbreakable. An active ability that makes every unit within 75m pretty much invulnerable in melee for 30 seconds. This ability alone is HUGE and has let my army stomp through the main line.
Nobility: +20% ranged block chance for melee cavalry (retinue). Commanders have the jian guard cavalry which are already pretty resistant to archers. With the extra block chance, they're amazing at charging archers, better than even the most elite red cavalry.
Nature's Ally: +25% speed, +10 morale, Ignore forest penalties. This is a passive 75m aura around the general. Faster army with better morale, not restricted to his retinue, this is a pretty amazing aura and Commanders can make your army so resistant to routing that they'll stand and fight to the death.
Meditation: Commander becomes unbreakable, +10 to army morale in defending battles. Another great buff to a general whose biggest value is adding super morale to the center of your army. Makes him even more of an anchor for the force.
Stone Bulwark: +100% ranged block chance, Unbreakable. Another active ability in a 75m range for 30 seconds that is HUGE. Pop this on your archers as soon as they start trading with enemy archers and your archers win every time. Also amazing to pop it right as you charge into a settlement fight to protect your men against the towers.
So to summarise, Commanders can make your army invulnerable in melee, invulnerable to missile fire, and super morale bonuses. To top it off, a nice little boost to their melee cav in their retinue. Who cares if they don't get a special yellow elite? That would make them more overpowered than they already are. A high ranking commander in your force is definitely nothing to sneeze at.
@@SStoj I almost never do defense battles and when they do happen I am so outnumbered I just auto resolve the loss. I think commanders abilities are really good but melee cavalry are just not as good as shock cavalry and they do not get elites on top of that which is why I think they are not worth using. They are by no means unuseable and having a faction leader commander is really good for the satisfaction buff. I will have to look at the vanguard abilities and judge them against each other some time as that is the main competition for commanders I would think you do not really want both in your army. Ok upon reading the abilities Vanguards seem much better to me as they are basically the same abilities except offense based instead of defense based. They have morale damage passive and active and bonuses when attacking instead of defending. They are mainly used for chasing down dangerous units though and taking out all the major threats before they can do anything. Commanders do have the best active abilities though I tend to not micro the generals that much so for other players they will be more useful.
"second Markwis"
It's pronounced "second markee"
Google it champ
@@JonJon-wi2dh Uk for markwis, french for Markee
@@haouaryu4164 yes
@@haouaryu4164 the English speaking people have different ways of pronouncing some words. Not just the dumb yank way
Aside from one of the most horrendous Total War UI, the game is phenomenal.
Thanks for this video. Question: When I disband my armies does it take long for them to muster the next time I call them up?
I'd really appreciate it if the units on the battle map were color-coded. I find it confusing that I can't really distinguish which are mine and which the opponent's units.
Go to options, then interface and tick the option called "Alliance colouring" ;)
Space bar is your friend!! :)
Lot of haters out here, would love to see them make such quality content. Great video, coming from a Total War vet.
Many systems that are entirerly new to the series is a bit of an overestimation. However i love the Diplomacy this time and duels :) Something i still miss in this one or havnt figured out yet is when someone is wanting a deal from you i cant see what that persons information is like who hes at war with, have deals with and such
Christopher Bernardi Click on ‘Negotiate’ and then you can see more information.
Halt of the video is described in overlay/tutorial of the game
Nice informative vid
Press F11? No, how about F1
very helpful video! *insert Michael Scott "Thank You" Meme*
Damn Total War has changed...
Sorry but I have to say it. Marquis is "Mar-key" XD not "Mar-kis"
This actually depends on if you're French or English, so both are correct. The French pronunciation is mar-kee but the English pronunciation is mahr-kwis.
@@starshadowx2 I'm of the thought that if you want to communicate an idea, and the word originates in a particular culture/language, the word is best to be pronounced the way it is originally intended, this way when we talk, others will at the very least have a better chance to understand what's being said. I'm not a language or grammar nazi but there are some pretty simple common sense guides to make communication easier. I've said the same to other people who have pronounced it 'Mar-Kees' too.
That said, while both ways might be phonetically correct based on which language is being spoken, one is better than the other.
@@starshadowx2 "marquess" is the English spelling and is only used to refer to English nobility. If it is spelled "marquis" then it is pronounced in the French manner.
You press F1, not F11 for info overlst. Big oof on the video
Interesting mechanics, I wonder if the colour mechanism aplies to multiplayer.
Haven't played much multiplayer yet, but we might explore it in a future video. Thanks for watching! - Matt
will i get other characters poping on the map if i start from before dong zhou take young emperor ? ( u know from time where u can choose to play as emperor to until like 197 where young emperor get of age)
wow a guide on the day of launch doesnt feel rushed at all! Got to get that content out before anyone else even if half of it is wrong!
How do you not know how to pronounce Marquis?
How do you not know there are more ways than one? Stupid?
Total war I’m not askin for much I just want a complete world map with historically accurate factions, realistic and effective AI diplomacy, smooth giant battles, government control over territories with ability to appoint leaders and generals. Why make all these different games instead of just building on Rome total war to deliver a complete game???
Who plays the map upside down? You monster!!! xD
*whispers* That _may_ have been to add a bit of visual variety to the vid... - Matt
I dont even know what all those buttons are, things are, you get what I mean? Like what equipment? Like what?
You: Forward men! seize that city with ease next turn!
Next turn: Yuan Shao vassalized the city's faction leader
You: ._.
Thanks a lot man!
When are we going to see a Peloponisian Total War like this???
Reaction to Three Kingdoms has been positive - would love to see them implement this sort of a character system in another time period - Matt
@@LogitechG yes. The rome 2 adaptation to Peloponisian - Persian wars was bordering the disaster territories. No depth and variety, no theme of the Era...
I would love to see a proper Peloponisian or Napoleonic Era with systems like this or Shogun.
But also some features of Rome 1 battle system must be reintroduced.
I loved the series over the years but the developers have to admit a huge truth. The hard core T. W. Players still playing Rome 1 mode or Medieval 2 mode...
We play the new entries for a couple of months yeah but then we go back to the backbone we loved...
And I know Sega, cr.As. and anyone that is involved can do good things. Maybe it's time for a new engine after all those entries.
A new one that can marriage the old Rome 1 and Medieval engine with the existing...
Let us go back to a more lengthy battles with important strategic decisions. Looking a scroll of numbers like playing a card game is not strategic and what rome was.
It's the taming and placing units in the terrain. Taking advantage of everything in the battlefield. Filling gaps. Try to flank etc...
I know one day... They are going to give us the ultimate title.
3 kingdoms looks nice but I feel disconnected due to the Era. Never studied it. That's in me though.
What do i do if my team get defeated, they disappeared from the map.
they dead
Not sure who copied who, much of the total war game concepts are similar to civilization
I'm a fan of both, but Civ isn't an RTS, it's just a strategy game, whereas Total War is the hybrid Grand strategy game. As for what's first 91 was first Civ game, and 2000 was first total war game.
Does anyone know if there is an advantage or disadvantage to dismounting your hero’s against infantry?
You need the horse to move out of danger quickly.
If it's spearmen I dismount. If swords/archers I stay on.
Marquis isn't pronounces Mar-quiss. It's pronounces Mar-key.
F1 by the way
Can someone tell me how much an average army costs in upkeep? I mean as in Commander/Vanguard, Champion/Sentinel and Strategist?
2000 to 3500 for most armies (full stack). If you field only elites it could go up to 4000+

Before you start... put on Chinese voice overs
is anyone able to help me with two questions?
So one of my small cities (i think) has an upgrade where its -10 food. My city is generating +6 food so does that mean once the upgrade goes through i am -4 and therefore causing all sorts of issues. I have like 30 food when I am in the diplomacy screen, does that just take that extra 4 food from there to blance it out?
Some buildings allow me to upgrade them, however on the bottom it has "requirements" for something - im confused as it upgrades despite that requirement stated.
yes that means that city will be making -4 and your faction will now produce 26.
The building won't perform at peak until you get the requirements.
