    He used to be an infantry man, then he took an arrow in the knee.

  • Chévere.

  • I wonder if there is a way to replace medievals 2 intro with this one....

  • That scorpion must be huge and the sword tiny.

  • wonder if you can even play it on vista

  • Medieval total awesome

  • The Middle Ages (adjectival form: medieval, mediaeval or mediæval) is a periodization of European history from the 5th century to the 15th century. The Middle Ages followed the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 and preceded the Early Modern Era. It is the middle period of a three-period division of Western history: Classic, Medieval and Modern.

  • The term "Middle Ages" first appears in Latin in the 15th century and reflects the view that this period was a deviation from the path of classical learning, a path supposedly reconnected by Renaissance scholarship.

  • The Early Middle Ages saw the continuation of trends set in Late Antiquity: depopulation, deurbanization, and increased barbarian invasion. North Africa and the Middle East, once part of the Eastern Roman Empire, became Islamic. Later in the period, the establishment of the feudal system allowed a return to systemic agriculture. There was sustained urbanization in Northern and Western Europe.

  • During the High Middle Ages (c. 1000–1300), Christian-oriented art and architecture flourished and Crusades were mounted to recapture the Holy Land from Muslim control. The influence of the emerging nation-state was tempered by the ideal of an international Christendom. The codes of chivalry and courtly love set rules for proper behavior, while the Scholastic philosophers attempted to reconcile faith and reason.

  • Outstanding achievement in this period includes the Code of Justinian, the mathematics of Fibonacci and Oresme, the philosophy of Thomas Aquinas, the paintings of Giotto, the poetry of Dante and Chaucer, the travels of Marco Polo, and the architecture of Gothic cathedrals such as Chartres.

  • My favorite total war game. I remember it was 1310, my peasant army with a spearman unit was stationed in Malta, where reinforcements were coming from Algeria to aid them in 2 years. The Spanish seeing it lacking units decided to send a mass of troops there, 1400 strong v my 3 peasant and 1 spearman garrison. One of my peasant armies became leader, and the towers rained arrows at the enemy. In the end it was my peasant captain vs their prince, we won with only 22 people remaining. <3

  • Best game ever in the entire TW series

  • Why could'nt Medieval 2 get an intro like this :(.

  • @MrJJJames Why couldn't medieval 2 of BEEN more like medieval 1 :/

  • the first ever total war game i played was rome total war...i never got to play medieval but i will get to it...

  • @1236sason in the pirate bay . org u can download it and kingdoms inclueded 

  • you dont need a flashy trailer when you have a great game ;)

  • Such an awesome intro... they should make more in this style...

  • Comment removed

  • one hell of a game, it was medieval who introduce me to the total war saga, i have been loving thouse games every since

  • SEAN PERTWEE FTW!!! This guy is an awesome voice actor as well as an actor in general. He deserves more credit.

  • This guy was the awesomest narrator ever!

  • Sean pertwee?

  • I found this game a lot more fun and enjoyable than medieval 2 tbh. It had brilliant atmosphere and style

  • this intro actually made the game look good :D

  • can sb tell me which is the best mtw1 or mtw2????????

  • @leo96227 M2TW of course!

  • @leo96227

    mtw1 ofcourse!

  • This and rome are may fave total war games.

  • The voice over for the intro is Rick Mayall

  • @trueblueaus1488 it was sean pertwee (he was in formula 51 and equilibrium too)

  • medieval total war was my fav

  • best trailer in the series, simply makes you jump of the chair=)

  • What an epic intro, even more epic that it was 10 yearssss ago.

    Some games should learn from this

  • they don't seem to make intros like these anymore

  • First Total War game i ever bought. Never had as much fun with a vanilla TW game than i had with this.

  • this is a very old game. Its from the late 90s lol. This is the title right after the first original SHOGUN TOTAL WAY so what do you expect. The figures on the battlefield were all two dementional models. OF course ROME was better. but this was stil enjoyable for its time. Medieval 2 is much better

  • @jasmine5000 It was released in 2002 not the 90's.

  • gothic1996ful stole this vid!!!

  • dude the trebuchet's shoot instantanuasly! much cooler than moderen crap

  • i love how the trebuchets obviouisly can shoot at the speed of light.

  • is it better than Medieval 2?

  • @RebornMaster3691 yep

    the atmosphere, and the fact the campign map is like in Risk

  • I like Rome total war better, but that is my opinion...

  • 5 ppl r too scared to watch this

  • Best opener for a Total War game yet. ALthough, MEd 2 is close!!!!

  • I bought this one day and installed and when I try to Start Campaign, the game crashes. What is the problem?

  • @zakoe07 I THINK THAT WINDOWS VISTA AND '7' ALWAYS HAVE BROBLEM WITH OLD GAMES!

    TRY TO FIND A PATCH FOR THE GAME!

  • @gQuaresma07 I downloaded the latest patch and doesnt work

  • I have Medieval: Total War: Gold Edition. But the intro on mine doesn't work so I removed it. But still, it works well.

  • @WHOKAY25 i have medieval 2 total war gold edition, but not medieval total war.

  • Haha I'm laughing my ass off for some reason everytime I watch this

  • Is it Sean Pertwee doing the voice?

    If so.. wow, perfect for a 40k movie!

    FUCKING EXCELLENT!

  • i bought this game today, when i try to play it my computer says "unable to initialize direct3D, please ensure your that machine meets the minimum graphics acceleration specification and retry" does any one know how to fix this?

  • @HerroHerrar buy a better pc., your grapichs do not require the minimum the game needs.

  • Is this game worse or better than Medieval total war 2?

  • @Mrthurst88

    I prefer medieval 1, but m2tw has some strengths over it. better graphics, refined seiges (they were new in mtw). I only prefer the first over the second because of the nostalgia factor.

  • when did this come out?

  • @2009DanielWright A long ass time ago.

  • achh, I miss playing this. it was like, 3 years I haven't played it

  • Great game indeed!!!! PLEASE answer me...

    I want to buy a total war game... Rme or Medieval II??? Answer me please..

    (my PC isnt strong enough for empire)

  • @geo23king It depends on what time period you like rome is ancient time period and medieval 2 is well medieval time period. I prefer Medieval time period.

  • @geo23king If you can.. buy everyone!

  • great intro and game...i love MTW 1 more than 2

  • Problem is with latest NVidia cards you get mouse problems in tactical battles, and with the latest ATI cards you get 2-3 minutes before the red loading bar starts to move to load the tactical/strategic map!

  • Sean Pertwee ftw.

  • @WildRaven8472 I liked him as Julius Caesar in Ancient Rome: The Rise and Fall of an Empire

  • I wish medieval 2 have the same spirit and music

  • To this day, I've never played a game that truley captured the hopeless, bloody, "grim dark" medieval atmosphere as well as Medieval Total War did. It was damn near perfect in every way.

  • we whont forget this game for god know how long yers

  • They don't make intros like this anymore. Or games for that matter. Shame.

  • yes, the intros of today are better ;)

  • dam guys this intro rocks compared to medieval II or even empire. More punch here, no question.

  • @BaTBaiLeyS atleast the other games actually used the gameplay graphics..

  • @BaTBaiLeyS if u ask me the best intro is Rome

  • @BaTBaiLeyS The other total war games are better but this one had the best intro hands down.

  • Does anyone know if it runs on Windows 7...???

  • yes it works

  • @ArchAngelMenidi Try something 14 times better at running this, like windows 98 or something.

  • I love how the guy says "TOTAL .. WAR" at the end.

  • @Muglosx Go Sean Pertwee!

  • @Muglosx he doesn't say TOTAL..WAR

    he says more like

    toutel wo

  • Best Medieval, when they still were coming up with new ideas and actually gave a damn about the series.

    Sold their souls to Sega.

  • MTW is best! I always got the most time out of it than the newer TW games.. maybe because my computer slows down after 1 hour of M2TW or RTW gameplay XD

  • does anyone know if i can get this game to run on vista?

  • ive been havng loads problems with it , something to do with anti-aliasing.

  • k thanks if you ever find a solution let me know please. :)

  • you have to get an old pc to play this =).

  • yes it runs on vista.

  • vista isn't the problem, your new video card is. You'll have to buy an old pc to run this game.

  • heh why an old videocard???? are you dumb i run it with my gt 9800

  • thank you for calling me dumb. I'm not even going to try and explain it to you.

  • @TotalWarEra are you dumb? i just asked if you were dumb but i didn't call you dumb i just ask.

  • lol i liked your responce

  • Maybe that's because it was done when no 3d grapichs where available for such game!

  • i know that they couldnt make 3d graphics back then. but rome is what got me liking the total war games so i like rome, m2 and empire. the older ones just didnt entertain me enough

  • wtf you idiot

  • lol joo

  • I loved how much darker the 1st game seemed, whenever you heard that church bell ring you felt like you were in a dark european village surrounded by plauge and death, i don't really feel that Medieval 2 captured the gritty and dark feeling that the 1st game had.

    I Mean, look at the guy on Medieval 1 box art, he looks great...

  • im gonna have to ask. What platform is it on?

  • its PC

  • this is an age of darkness oooooh yeaah what a voice :D:D:D

  • its sounds like that actor from hbo rome that plays ceasar

  • do the cheats still work for this game or did they allready patch it casue it been 4 ever sence i've played this

  • Ultimately no game is truly better than the other. Every aspect helps not just only a single like only graphics, music, or gameplay. A game is truly great when it can cover all aspect as best as possible. It is only a matter of opinion not fact.whether a game is good or not, since people have different views. Until it universally agreed upon by all, the idea of which game is better is not a complte fact.

    I personally do not care which total war game is better. I like of all them .

  • I have to agree with you there. Because I was sucked into the franchise by Rome:Total war then all the other total war games, I have to say, no game has ever entertained me more

  • Thanks. I see the total war games as a whole instead of different games. Each total war game contributes and strengthens the legacy of the entire franchise making stand out from other franchises.

  • i'm still playing this game lol. and tho the intro clip shows a moving battle tower (where soldiers can get in to cross the castle platform/battlements), in the game, there isn't any =( thats the ONLY regret. the rest is 10/10 gameplay hehehe!

  • I like the murder holes at :41...I wish Medieval II had that as a siege defense!

  • its medival not medival 2 nice but graphics lame

  • i agree the graphics suck ass but i do like medieval total war 2 kingdoms and medieval 2 total war

  • great game, best of all TW series to me (new games with overrated graphic good for ppl without imagination) its gameplay that counts and its best in Viking Invasion

    (AI very weak n predictable ofc but still much smarter than in mtw2 or empires where AI just waited for me to be killed no matter of army or terrain (so i got bored pretty fast)

    And Vikings got best working mulitplayer.

  • you got M2:TW, that put aside.

    I got vista and everything works just fine, where are you trying to install it? External HardDrive or something? It might also be your processor.

  • chyba nie można

  • Probably the best intro for a game ever... in its simplicity resides its power. Incredible...

  • yup, only shogun intro can be a match to this, new games just so silly....

  • Sean Pertwee was really lucky he got the role of voice introduction, for the start of this really excellent PC series. I think this pre dates even the start of his movie career in Dog Soldiers.

  • Shogun predates this.

  • I knew The total war franchise went down hill when I heard the their shitty voice actors starting with Rome total war. This guy had the perfect voice and, "set the mood," per-se.

  • WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? The hammy voice acting is the best part!

    "THE ENEMY RUNS LIKE A HEARD OF GOATS! PURSUE AND RUN THEM DOWN!"

  • What the fuck are you ringing? Voice acting is irrelevant, what's important is the gameplay, the recent Empire:Total War even had player controlled naval battles. How is that going down hill?

  • lol, defensive aren't you? No, voice acting is near irrelevant, but it shows where the developer's goals lied: money. in a game based on an era, it IS important to set the mood and between the sketchworks and the voice acting it created an eerie atmosphere. On top of that, the gameplay did worsen imo. And in your style: Who the fuck gives a shit about naval battles? Additional gimmicks are pointless when the original game still needs fixed. It's stupid anyway because it's a matter of opinion.

  • n HOW DID THE GAME PLAY WORSEN?

  • Actually, the swedish voices in ETW suck, and its really annoying.

  • i love this game! what a feeling...

  • Proszę o radę. Może mi ktoś powiedzieć jak można zmodyfikować religię państwa w pierwszej części medieval total war ?

  • English dammit

  • wow 8 years... feels like yesterday! Goto love this classic though, i played this so much, and it's freaking sean pertwee narrating! lol. looking forward to empire

  • lern some muayhtai moves pal

  • god! you dont know him??? i doubt

  • what i mean is the greaphics and the gameplay and sorry if you dont understand me in english because i hate my english subject....

    sorry for my grammar i'm not actualy a english men i'm just a filipino....

    and my point is the gameplay and the graphics ...hehe but anyway du u know the nest fight of manny paquiao?

  • filipino pride yo and i have this game its ok the graohics suck but it pretty good not the cooliest but good

  • yo god bless philippines we are the best yo filipino pride!!

  • dude what the hell this game is 8 years old. get medieval 2 total war it has awesome graphics

  • i do i also have rome

  • even better get Empire:Total War next month lol

  • i have a quad duo processer can i handle empire total war?

  • not sure look at the empire total war website for the minimum specifications

  • yeah because you have no sense right??? dont you tell you still stick on this game

  • Ah, the memories of yore!

  • only have one thing to say about this game and that is that it is awesome srsly=)

  • Why the heck do they show a siege towier in the video. If there is no siege tower in the game. LOL

  • This has to be one of the most epic game intros ever. I was a bit disappointed with Medieval 2 since even though it has great graphics it lacks the unique style of the original Medieval TW. I love especially the strategy map system where game pieces represent armies and you move them on a paper map and when you drop your army on an enemy province you hear that mighty BOOM sound. Too bad the sequel has that Civ IV style 3D map. Medieval 1 and 2 are both great games, but the first one is better.

  • i love all medival versions but im looking for the theme music from the first 1 can any1 help?

  • Game Music Gems 1 and 2, a coupla torrents dat includes M:TW music ;)

  • Still has the best feeling to it. The atmosphere is perfect, you can listen to the music forever, read unit/building information and watch the illustrations for ever. All who has played it can see there has been a great lot of time put into it. Probably my favorite game.

  • i know this game is old

    but this intro is the best ever made in the total war series and other games

    it is so great and epic

  • Once more onto the breach my friends, once more!

  • best fucking intro!!!!!

  • LOL Sean Pertwee !?

  • U know nothing, it is a fucking classic. Medieval 2 is better of course, but Medieval 1 bloody rocked in it's time. You don't understand mate...

  • I guess you replied to the wrong person. I only said that Sean Pertwee is narrating the intro.

  • so this is medieval 1 total war? is it nice? im downloading it right now

  • graphics needs work but ye its nice

  • that was an awsome opining

  • you got that right

  • One of the best intros for a game... ever...
