    you were recommended to me because i watched strat gaming guides a lot, one thing i noticed is that you dont rely on game mechanics as much. for example, strat doesnt block the gate he has infantry to the side of it and archers on the other side but further to flank because he knows they won't target the farther archers. youre more focused on the relatively practical real-life tactics. refreshing shift from the standard bannerlord cheesing content produced

      There is always some level of essentially exploiting weaknesses in the AI and unfortunately the AI has some predictability to it but ultimately since most people are playing against the AI I try to build tactics and strategies around defeating it. All that said I relish and look forward to an opportunity someday to match tactical wits against other good players. Then the true tactics and skills I think we're sharing here will really help players win against other humans. All that said I'm glad you found the channel! Welcome!

  • @AnubisMRM
    @AnubisMRM 3 месяца назад +2

    I noticed that it's better to have your infantry to the side of the gate so that your archers can shoot the enemies in the flank as they come in.
    If you place the infantry in front of the gates, the archers are blocked from helping them.
    And the enemy units will keep attacking your infantry on the side instead of going for the archers.

    • @HeadlessHorsemanProductions
      @HeadlessHorsemanProductions  3 месяца назад

      I like an infantry square SLIGHTLY away from the gate to encourage the enemy to attack the square, yet room for the allied archers to rake them in the side/back.

    What I'd think would be interesting to see is a campaign in the style of the documentary of the ottomens vs timur with like battle death on ect so if someone dies or get captured it can be just adds to the storys lore when vassels change sides or mercenary change sides it could add to lore but the amunt of worked involved to create it could be crazy the screen at the end could help but to be able to keep track of other lords battles wins and losses deaths would be crazy hard ☠️

      Occasionally some archers will be disobedient and go back to the walls but you should be able to control them either with the f1- f2 command which is follow and then assign them or you can try F1 F5 which is pull back and then assign them but usually they will go where you place their markers.

      Not too different. Of course you're NOT using speed bonuses in siege, nor regularly using decreased taken ranged attack damage unless you're assaulting. For defenders, I mostly prefer decreased taken melee damage and increased ranged accuracy(or damage).

      Ambushing mainly serves to delay the enemy assault, so if you need more time to get your own catapults up or wait for allies to come, by all means ambush. They might even run out of cohesion and break before you run out of food. But that doesn't exactly make for an exciting RUclips video...
