  • Brave spartans! Bad video... 

  • wtf spartans 700-800 and you 2000-3000 :|

  • The spartans had homosexual relationships with young boys. Fact.

  • I just bought this game on ebay. I will have it in 5 days. Is the gameplay as complicated as it looks?

  • @DcAeGaming this is only a small(and optional) part of the gameplay, but yes it is smewhat complicated. this game is one of my favorite strategy game ever and it has LOADS of replay value with all of the separate nations you can play as.

  • I used to be a spartan, but then i took an arrow to the knee.

  • @rojalilco HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA fuck you.

  • how do you do to have 150 soldiers , I have only 38

  • @MonkerTown Change the unit size from settings.

  • bah you was with alone strengt in numbers

    not in strategion

  • @Lowieiscool

    Now thats just cute.

  • Give the spartans a bigger army and the video might be decent.

    Your putting yourself on youtube for battering a SMALL army, well done ;)

  • by this time, the Spartans were 2nd rate warriors.

  • tee lisäää :))

  • romans faught with all sorts of artillery, their strategy when attacking a strong enemy force was to weaken them as much as they could before assulting them. they moved close together but still keeping about 5 feet space betwen each men before slaughter, romans were great tactical fighters, not for nothing they conquered such an empire. Spartans were great soldiers, strong and couragous, but still not better than romans on the battlefield. Spartans would inflict great damage if not out smarted.

  • @Narciso3322 referring to the story of the 300 spartans, they marched in phalanxes, which meant they were useless if one man would fall on either side. Romans werent the idiots persians were to front asault a 300 man phalanx sitting their safe buts inside a small passage, romans instead would of kept bombarding them with arrows, catapults, ballistas etc. until the spartans if smart would of retreated, which unlikely according to the myth, or counter attack into suicide.

  • You are all wrong to compare Rome with Old greece. The spartains lived and died a few hundred years befor Rome was Rome. When the greek empire was in its golden age rome was just tribes. And by the time Rome was a nation the Greek empire had fallen apart. Spartains were the most powerful and advanced force in there time. But the Roman Army had tactics and advanced stratagy. In piont, both were the most powerful force for each of their times.

  • XD press ,,Ctrl and A"

  • I owned Carthage and the Spartans in the first 5 turns.

  • im sorry but spartans can easily kill romans how do you think they killed over 20,000 soldiers with 300 spartans and 10000 foot soldiers? the foot soldiers where not needed and the made 8000 retreat and the remaining spartans and leonitus remained and still killed a lot of them

  • @222thepunisher Because they were persians, back then the persian army consisted of conscripted farmers and slaves which not only had no training, but also had poor weapons and armor and were under the command of poor generals who were under the impression that numbers are everything, plus the fact that many of them hated their leader.

    Romans had the best armor and weapons, some of the smartest generals and were well organised. 300 romans wouldn't beat 300 spartans but 1000 would.

  • @222thepunisher Please don't base your argument off movies. The spartains never fought Romans. The spartains fought the persians. A few hundred years later the massadonians took all of greece and the spartains no longer existed. After Alexander the Great died the Greek empire fell apart, then a few hunded years after that the Roman empire begain to form. No Spartain ever fought a Roman. Also the persians attacked greece with the largest army to ever walk the earth, concisting of over 2 million.

  • @222thepunisher Leonitas ordered 800 not 8000 Athedians to fall back while the spartains held the ground because they were going to die, not because they were not needed.

  • what game is that?

  • well done you flanked and outnumbered them and they came in waves yeah you must feel so proud :/

  • I used to be a spartan, but then I took a Roman to the knee

  • in real war the spartans would get slautgher by the romans 

  • Lol ur archers hit one of your cheering soldiers at 4:54

  • TW series is still as fantastic in 2011 as it was in 2004. Probably the best strategy game since it's release. The Gods (with baby Jesus) introduced sodomy during this period. Hence the zest of the male characters in TW- Rome.

  • Whoopee you outnumbered them 2 to 1 and used the map edge so they couldn't flank you... must be proud chump.

  • this would be the results of a real life roman vs spartan battle if it ever happened

  • BRILLIANT!

  • That is one sexy yet littly annoying voice that girl has

  • personally i think the spartans in this game look like shit. They should have made them look better

  • @BigChiefMike You do realize the game was published in 2004?

  • @Unterschiedliche yeahhhh... they could have made them more historically accurate. Technically if they made the spartans look like the Armored Hoplites but with red cloaks or what ever it would be fine.... really all they need to do is put a similar helmet to the Armored Hoplites rather than a golden pot and it would be good to go.

  • @BigChiefMike Oh sorry for my ignorance, I thought you were talking about their graphical design not their historical accuracy, the game was pretty demanding back in 2004, I had to upgrade my GPU twice back then to play this game smoothly lol..

  • @Unterschiedliche haha no worries, I don't know why they made the helmets the way they were. It was a downer when i first played greece. I was like "really? a golden pot?"

  • @BigChiefMike I guess at the time they just never thought that people would be zooming in on the troops a lot lol...

  • how do you even get this game?

  • EX-CE-LLENT :)

  • The Greek Cities is my natural enemy >:)

  • TONIGHT WE DINE IN HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

  • I've noticed that through the game spartans are more of a shock troop, as in if you use then in a hammer and anvil, they will win. if you don't though spartans will take out allot of troops in a loosing battle for you

  • how you play online

  • total dumm tacktig voll der lui

  • but where is kratos

  • I can't help but notice that the Romans had a numerical advantage with more unit variety so that means this fight from the start was a win for rome :(

  • @MsMi321 also the Spartan AI is terrible they wouldn't break their own line and let the Romans flank them in the middle of battle.

  • game is called rome total war

  • pretty good i wanna see MORE!

  • what is game name ?

  • I think i'm right in what i said there. Anyone able to confirm? It was years ago.

  • This reminded me of the computer game called "Black and White 2". You are basically a supernatural God's hand controlling the whole place. In the short time i played that game i loved it. I wish i could play it again. I remember, there's something like this in it. You could order squadrons, or even whole massive army's, to attack the enemy (usually on the other side of the island, which was my favourite way). You could create whole cities, villages and other stuff, all under your command.

  • Spartans and romans really never fought in battle. Sparta was already depleted when the romans invaded. Nice vid though.

  • I like how there is a 300 reference on all Rome: Total War videos.

  • Firstly this is against the computer, secondly it's easy mode because on expert Hoplites route as easily as that.

    Your not fooling anyone mate

  • eiste malakes

  • Spartans are overrated.

  • @ajbenius spartans are realistic B-)

  • @ajbenius All because of the 300 movie

  • @trevmeister100 Exactly.

  • @ajbenius Lol more like overused.

  • @ajbenius atleast we know the romans are great warriors

  • @ajbenius No, they're just badass.

  • @ajbenius

    The Battle of Thermopylae ALONE proves that both you, and any other person that gave you a thumbs up, are idiots.

  • @CroatianHercegovina Okay, the Spartans were excellent soldiers, but they are just humans and are not invincible. Plus, the historical accounts of Thermopylae are exaggerated.

  • @ajbenius

    Has anybody claimed that they were invincible???

    I claim that they were the best soldiers ever to walk on earth! Not strange since their whole life evolved around war, and preparing for it!

    Thermopylae exaggerated? Well yes, a little, if your knowledge is based on the movie "300". But the FACT is that there WERE only 300 spartans in that passing. And that they fought for seven days (three days of actual fighting against a HUGE army of 2-300.000.

    Unprecedented in history

  • @CroatianHercegovina No, I meant the historical accounts by people like Herodotus.

    In the beginning of the battle, the Spartans had allies, so it wasn't just them. And please don't think that I get my knowledge from "300".

  • Romans always get there way bitches :D

  • This is SPARTA!!

  • stop putting gay hidden links on my screen when I'm trying to pause the video -.-

  • @TheScipioneAfricano because i don't understand rome at all!

  • @TheScipioneAfricano Yeah, except i'm not having any fun at all when i'm shooting in the dark and getting destroyed every time.

  • @TheScipioneAfricano yeah, ok. This doesn't help me at all. So, thanks for nothing :)

  • how to select units like this at 0:48

  • you mean Macedonia for Greece

  • Even spartans must yield to the might of Rome.

  • love the music at 0:15

    If i named that song, it would be, mobilisation of the legion

  • @Nicholasrecker1215 if you click on the black side parts of the screen then you can pause without going to his channel by mistake. ;)

  • This is madness.

    Madness?

    This is SPARTA!!!!!

  • Machinima Duelcraft

  • does anyone know a game like this that´s about the greeks??

    or only about the spartans/macedonians?

  • @Tolisakis97

    there are most likely mods for Rome Total War that focus on the Greek states. In the original game you can play as Greek Cities (including Spartans), Macedon, Pontus, Parthia, Thrace and Seleucid Empire.

  • @HelmutVillam original game??

    so whats this game??fake or what?

  • @Tolisakis97 yes, Hegemony Gold

  • rome vs sparta??

    no chance..

  • ITS OVER 9000

  • 5 Years Later.

  • Even that i like more the spartans and that i have a deep respect for them, if this battle were real all my bucks goes to the Romans

  • roman hadd more men then spartan

  • shotr op spartan is best im just saying it

  • Rome would have won for real. More discipline and a greater number of men.

  • spartans fought bravely!!

  • *before i watch* spartans are gonna win *after i watch* HOW THE FUCK DID ROMANS WIN??

  • ... You shot down you own units... -.-'

  • playing with romes worse units lol

  • Spartans, WHAT IS UR PROFESSION!......Acountant!!

  • @Solxxassassinxx *holds up spear* Taxidermist!!

  • Macedonia = greece

  • *separate

  • @Themanofgreece

    Well, it's weird because back then, the Macedonians considered themselves greek, but the Greeks considered the Macedonians not Greeks. :P plus in the game they are 2 delegate factions, lol.

  • Its alright, but in real life, The Spartans would have had a stragety because they dont attack against big numbers. And their shields are wayy bigger meaning they wouldn't really died by the spears.

  • Fuck the Greeks, Macedonians are way better. There companion cav does wonders for hammer and anvil strikes and all around ravaging light/heavy infantry. :D Plus, they've got some of the biggest phalanxes, which mean on a 1 on 1 phalanx fight, the Macedonians have it made.

  • 3 more and better soldiers and even then you suck.

    Bad Play !

  • NEW WW2 RTS game: "Sword Of Justice - Development video"

  • dilettante u.u ... la tua tattica e pessima

    usando gli arceri nella mischia contro gli spartani hai rischiato non solo di uccidere i tuoi soldati ma anche il tuo generale e quindi far ritirare i tuoi astati (fanteria leggera di 1° grado con pessimo morale) sei stato solo bravo nell'accerchiamento ma nel resto hai avuto fortuna

  • err why u have a battalion of hoplites in the second battle line lmao

  • i fucking played this gam dozens of times yet the fucking AI always creams me on EAsy, why the fuck do people like this game so much? it's confusing as shit X_X

  • @drealgrin You Must suck at it. LRN TO PLAY TOTAL WAR. If this is confusing don;t even try empire/napolean yet.

  • @WoflClaws i know i suck at it. I ruled at the Original Shogun, Total War.

    But this game is beyond over my head. it pisses me off because people say it's super fun yet i can't comprehend it. The tutorials suck cock :/

  • @drealgrin I would try using 1 unit vs 1 unit then go on. It helps me.

  • I Play it to but i dont have 150 men how i can do that ?

  • @MrPeldersveld68 read the top comment

  • am i the only one who completely hates hoplites or any other phalanx units in R:TW?

  • Come on, there was no way you could have lost that battle.

  • is this what the graphics look like in the actual game

  • tell me where i can download the full version of this game

  • @TheLegendaryBrolly Did you try your local EB Games? 

  • @TheLegendaryBrolly You can DL it off torrents or buy it on steam for like 5 dollars.

  • 349 ppl plays Mario shi*

  • i remember this game! and the time i sent an wntire army to deal with 3-4 units of enemies on my territory. i squased it...on easy mode control+a entire army and spammed on them LOL

  • Hold on, Im seeeing Hastati units with 160 in each regiment, can someone explain? Isnt 40 the usual??????? I d really like to know this works?

  • @1983davidmurphy. It's in your video options. Set unit size to "Huge".

  • @1983davidmurphy You can change the unit size of all batallions in Rome Total war, except Tutorial. Follow these steps: 1. Main Menu - 2. Options 3. - Advanced Settings - 4. Unit Size - 5. Change to HUGE. 6. Enjoy.

  • Man, you just have to use your hoplites in phalanx to pin them down and hit them from the back with peltasts and hastatii

  • @lenhadorvermelho i really cant see that working as he has 1 unit of hoplites?!

  • @crazymoocow300 Well, you'll need use baits to make the pc loose the formation.

    Also, hitting 2 or more hastatii units head on with spartans. You'll loose less than you imagined

  • try playing very hard you hastati rout as soon as they touch the spears lol well about 10 secs :D the best thing to do against greeks is to use cav and there cav sux

  • man if i had some grenades in these times fighting armies like this...

  • Could someone tell me how to properly use pikemen I have no idea how use them effectively

  • @snipes081 slow and steady keep them stick together and always go for phalanx position if u have cavalry on ur disposal hammer the enemy from back or flanks with ur cavalry while they are bizy in fighting with ur pikemen and hoplites

  • @snipes081

    Against cavalry, always the best

  • omfg i want this game...dnt giv a fk how old it is

  • @TLBNonO lol

  • they should make this for the xbox 360 or ps3

  • how i can play as spartan???

  • @MrSIRTBIRT you should choose greek cities

  • @TheKillzone444

    I don't think that's what he means.

    It was probably a campaign battle where his army vastly outnumbered the spartans.

  • no one except Alexander the greats army had spears that long

  • those arent spartans they are Alexander The Greats srry

  • plz someone help me...im playing as the greeks, so when im defending against romans, if i let the computer fight automatically he always lose, so i try fighting by myself, but after i organize my units and begin the fight they dont engage!

    so they make me to just leave the fight and get a draw, and they keep doing this until i pass the turn many times and they decide to engage because(i dont know why) i have much less soldiers than i had before making easier for them!

    what should i do?

  • @adonaigabriel kill yourself

  • the flab is on!

    

  • Mogo si da ubacis i onelegionarske kohorte, jedno desetak kom?

  • Just spam units at enmies. Alwasy the best way to play rts game. xD

  • is there a limit to purchase men?

  • @keyboardmaster95 no limit until u run out of money..... u must be rich by managing ur cities and upgrading buildings like trader, Docks and Market and many more......

  • nice army can you surendet it

  • Really you think that the SPARTANS can been beat so easy?

  • @SgtBes you watched to much 300.

  • @SgtBes Spartans are overrated.

  • @SgtBes in the game, theres always a way to beat any army. The spartans are maybe the third best infantry unit on the game, but a cavalry charge to the rear while they are fighting just destroys them faster then you can say :"wow" XD

  • @OrthodoxGod

    The Spartans are the second best, the Urbans are the best. I did a test battle with them, the Urban Cohort won. But smashing your cavalry into their rear also damages your cavalry, you might lose 20 horses on large setting in a single charge. The best way, if possible, to defeat them is to shoot at their back until they've been slaughtered, since Spartans are very slow with all the armor and can't hope to catch archers.

  • @Recruitsoldier yes, archers and cavalry archers rule against falanx, thats why I love Parthia on this game XD

    But I consider the spartans to be the third. Of course, the urbans take the gold here, they are awesome XD but the second best infantry, and its only my opinion, its the berserkers. They are a threat to any infantry of the game, and I just love using them for head-on charges while I have someone flanking the battle line XD

  • @OrthodoxGod

    Well, Berserkers are different. They don't need any upgrades to tear a unit to shreds, and they can somehow ''miss'' spears when they charge into a pike.

  • @Recruitsoldier and thats why I love them XD

  • I don't see Red Cape donned Elite Spartans. Replace bronze armor wearing prissy girls representing Sparta above with REAL Spartans in Red and the outcome would have been less obvious. Try it and see ;p

  • nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooobbbbbbbbbbbb

  • that was not romans...those looked like macedonions

  • THIS IS SPARTA !!!!!!!

  • Noob you played vs easy and you have 3 x more soldiers as the computer !

  • @SquashZombix3 whats so wrong about that...maybe hes a 10 year old and hes not so good at these games... hm?

  • @SquashZombix3 so what ?

  • @SquashZombix3 So? It's not because you're outnumbered that you lose, and specialy with spartans

  • @SquashZombix3

    Ever seen 300? Spartans can bitch slap all Romans dude.

  • @MrGamergg I agree man

  • @MrGamergg 300 was unreal it was more like 8000 spartans vs 200000 persian SLAVES, although I love the Greeks the Romans beat the Greeks and created the greatest and largest empire ever.

  • @RIDONKulousify not being a smartass but i think you forgot about the british empire

  • @0000000012300000000 that was not a true empire

  • @Davidt963 what do you mean it wasnt a true Empire WIthout it the world would of been completly different it was the largest Empire that will ever exist it wasnt a Super Power it was the one and only Hyper Power.

  • @1tjos except the absence of the united states and english as a world language there wouldnt be much changes, you have to admit it wasnt a true empire more like a loose country ruled by stock companies, and it was really far from being even a super power not your theoratic "hyper power"

  • @Davidt963 Great battle , Macedonia for Macedonians !

  • @SquashZombix3 Clearly you've never seen the movie 300

    3 on 1 would be cakewalk for REAL spartans ;D

  • why are you all fighting about spartans greeks, macedonians, and romans????? WE ALL KNOW DACIANS RULE!!! lol but the only reason spartans were good against the persian empire is because they had a narrow corridor where only a coulpe troops could attack!!! sparta was weak and always outnumbered...... PLUS THIS IS A GAME! like calm down.... and romans always cheated in battles and never fought them fairly ( its actually true) and macedonians didn't last too long either.

    so calm down about it.

  • @cosminso1230 Spartans were definitely not weak
