Rome Total War Online Battle #1186: Dacia vs Parthia

[erik260196]

best way how to fight heavy cav is to charge then with spearmen and when they will be stuck, use falxmen .... tadaaaa victory is yours :)

[TheGreengary]

I really thought horses would win over infantry..

[Kryonyde]

Falx. A sabre on a stick.

[legokid5872]

Rage quit!!!

[LupineSpacePirate]

I do love the Dacians, they seem to be considered underdogs by both the barbarians and the romans, but the flaxmen make a mess of both

[ghpruz]

Hate it when ppl tell u to go or hurry for deployment... I'll say it but I'll give u like 10-15 min to set up. But I never quit without saying good game and if I lose saying good game( unless ur mad rude and claim to pwn me when u spam Spartans or urbans-.-)

[94samboy]

one naked fanatic or gary glitter as he likes to be known

[SirScourge]

Hurray Dacia. They arnt so well depicted in the game, though the Europa Barbarorum does a much better job.

[vudumunqi]

Damn this battle was over before it began.

[grawling]

You only play against noobs?

[Jesskie1]

they where heros, dacia and germania where the 2 last country's fighting against rome. and they where not easy to fight against

[Guitarvirtuoso666]

Bad opponent, a frontal infantry attack to keep the falxmen busy and then surround with the cataphracts would've been much more efficient

[wowfreak151]

how do you let the cataphracs use the mace? with wich buttons do you activate it?

[TalonMercenary]

is it possible to ever play night battles in the campaign?

[andtrock219]

@TalonMercenary  only in barbarian invasion

[ticnitul]

Lol DACIA RULZ !!!!!!!NOBODY CAN DEFEAT OUR ANCESTORS XD XD

[Guitarvirtuoso666]

@ticnitul

except for the romans lol:p

[snkv12]

PERSIAN POWER

[GliderPilot07]

DACIAN POWER!

[showfire100]

at rome total war i like playing at night because the fire arrow glow and i aim for 1 unit and i see the burn up

[MisterRofltastic]

and i thought falxmen were crap

gotta try that out some time

[MichaelBlue1990]

youre general waz called count dracula?wtf!

[gangRobEro]

DACIA is the best

[999Woltmjac]

awsome battle

i like those flcmen alot

[petar945]

I'm pretty good with Romans, Greek Citys, Britons and Macedonia but u rule with all factions!

[REDBULL1296]

In istory romans beated dacia very hard with great force dacia dont was defeated very easy in that age

[TheJuicyOC]

I love the way you completely destroy trash talkers lol :)

[xDyn4st7x]

@PaladinConstantin yeah but with the the lower amount of troops he was either stupid in his selection of units or he had more upgrades. its not like he was at a disadvantage cus they both have the same amount of money to start the game

[Musikkingofthecookie]

i rlly hope i never face you online

i would get my ass kicked...

[helots02]

Are the factions balanced online?

[cakeofdoom1]

damn! you are good with ALL factions!



[stefan5709]

whats a pesant unit ?

[sarjil]

in real life those falxes were brutal weapons, againts cavalry, infantry armored and unarmored.

[prosocutorism]

fucking abschaum ,Warum sie nicht veröffentlichen sie Ihre spiele verloren?

[Shadowmaster888]

He should have used horse-archers instead of just reling on those catchphrase.

Cavalry is good for hit and run.

[dirt0bike00]

i hate them wen they're rude but if i win, and he doesnt quit, il trash talk him at the end then say gg mate :) with a smile

[Seance249]

i bought this years ago and lost my game key so im sad T_T cant play multiplayer

anyone no if barbarian invasion come with game key?

[HealthyRationale]

thats surprising that the cataphracts cant take out sword wielding infantry

[WRH90059]

not head on but from the rear they can ;)

[is01231]

go armenia... we played so much part in history but no one remembers us,i mean we were strong ofcourse not as strong as romans obviously

[MrUnclepeanuts]

@is01231 actually it took a long time for the romans to take all the people in the east land Parthians pwned the romans for a long time and were able to hold them back

[Trunks858585]

@is01231 we remember you(romanians/dacians),some people from your nation stabilised in the Romanian region known as: Dobrogea and I know some people that have Armenian names

[SoldierGhazi]

@is01231 the only thing those pesky armenians were good for were mercenaries and being the first kingdom to adopt christianity as state religion

[Katazka]

@SoldierGhazi That's not correct.

[TheQuakeIV]

GO GO GO!

"Im goin, biatch"

[MasterofMayhem1394]

Hmm, I've never met anyone poor mannered on this game.

I guess I'm lucky.

[haloreaper75]

im still just a noob at this game

[darsus19]

the lights are arrows with have been dipped in flamez

[PriceOfTeutons]

your opponent was the people i hate to meet in online games

[schioplander]

Btw... Dacians were not barbarians, as the game depicts them ;))

They had the best wall construction method, the best medicine and were pretty advanced in many other fields.

Also Dacians used a lot of light cavalry forces armed with bows (very fast and deadly).

[victor86tabacaru]

n-am citit cum ca ar fi avut arcasi pe cai. le-au folosit impotriva romanilor?

[schioplander]

cavalerie folosita la lupta in munti? sper ca n-au facut prostia...

[MichaelBlue1990]

@schioplander ye but RTW is not made to be hystoricly acurate,you shoud play RTW europa barbarorum basicly it's RTW but almoust 100%his acurate!

[6hobnob9]

@MichaelBlue1990 And 100% more boring.

[TheRoopeKonna]

@schioplander

Yes, but they did not have horse archers in native... i think they recruited mercenaries from their neighbours when they were on their might

[TheGator2000]

@schioplander dacians were barbarians,but more disciplined.

[schioplander]

@TheGator2000 that depends on your understanding of "barbarian". If by barbarians you mean a population outside the Roman Empire, yes, they were barbarians... But their civilization was an advanced one: they had metallurgy, very beautiful gold jewelery, built walls with some kick-ass method (those walls didn't collapse when the Romans used their siege machines on them - rams and everything), had very advanced medicine, and so on... Yes, that seems like barbarian stuff to me too :))

[TheGator2000]

@schioplander it's just a legend that their walls didn't collapse.and oh,every civilization had metallurgy at the time,only american civilizations didn't.they didn't know maths,philosophy,physics.Jewel­ry,the same as the metallugy.they weren't civilised.they didn't have sewers or other things.

[schioplander]

@TheGator2000 well... I really don't know your sources... but anyway... the antic Greek historians considered the Dacian civilization almost as advanced as theirs... I don't want to get into a sterile argument over the Internet... if you really care and want to know more about them, do some research

[TheGator2000]

@schioplander greeks have an legacy of mistaking.allways making things stronger/bigger/better.well,we­ have no ideas of what they were

[BNet4ever]

people might not believe it but falxmen with warcry eat away catapracts like it was no mans business...

[flubr123]

Oke... Sorry nevermind for the last comment =)

[flubr123]

What were those yellow lights flying over the battlefield?

[Oruper]

fire arrows :)

[Legolasas26]

WSC Demon_Sword  is a cocksucker, he ruined my appetite to play Parthians anymore.

[DraggingMorons]

look at his opponent's nick name.

I would've expect childish manner

from him. just let him be, he would forget what he've done and grow up some days.

[Zbrock104]

I don't understand, it seems the cataphracts seemed to have the battle in the back, but they all route at once... how does that work?

[emprguy]

its because falxmen = dacian spearmen pretty much, they destroy pretty much any calvary that fights them.

[Shroshoe]

Also he was surronding them.

[LaurentziusRo88]

Actually the falxmen were swordsmen but with very long curved swords. They handled it with both their hands and basically they could cut in half both the man and the horse with one blow. The Romans were terrified by falxmen and they improved their armors after they encountered them.

[lordofthemist]

Plus it's like a dominoeffect. If one man flee, pretty much everyone else will flee.

[929Hunter]

i loveyour videos so much!

[Illier1]

I love when you nail all the poor mannered kids, it is fun, and they are usually the fastest battles you play it seems.

[harvey11t]

he quit... what a noob

[Mayes041]

They should have a channel with all your games on it. I mean I just can't stop watching this stuff!!

[Matesuchti]

How can you see that they are upgraded? I never see a difference.

[tubeyou1905]

For every little flag next to the main banner (when u r zoomed in i think) stands for upgrades.

[Matesuchti]

thanks man :)

[darkxzero13]

wat are all u guys arguing about? arguing on teh internet is like running in the special olympics... even if u win, ur STILL RETARDED!

[dougo456]

you know thats a great comparison.

[darkxzero13]

lol, haha thx.

[lolzobot]

Wow that was a short battle, nice job.

[HTQCOMANDO]

YEA !!! DACIANS RULES !!!

[Fahad1917]

[HTQCOMANDO]

Anyway , they fuket up thear image ...

[MultiUSERZ]

@HTQCOMANDO BUT DACIANS ARE HALF NAKED!well most of them are.

[Azicpok1]

@MultiUSERZ Dacians were not barbarians like this game may lead you to think they were almost as sophisticated as the greco-roman civilizations.

[antysoftwares]

how do u tell if there upgraded?

[eeranyA39]

if they have those little flags

[weebootie]

But from the flags how do you know what the upgrades are for?

[MusicGuy17st]

lol u dont

u just know they are more powerful

[princeofbritain]

hes gust jealous that your great and heas not!!!!

[501stlegionnaire]

alright dude nice victory when I saw those 5 units of cataphracts I thought you were done for, but hey looks like I underestimated those falksmen as well, good victory, and good job teach'n that cocky dude a lesson...

On to your next vid =)

Grtz

-501-

[LadiesXMan217]

are the Dacians celtic then

[Venon1995]

No they are not.

[ptitchemla]

what is your username on rome total war??i want to play against you

[pili207]

im romanian, this video is ....good

[DeanG20]

You have chosen lots of infantry, Dacia are good for that as they have spears, falx and swords, a lovely combination which can deal with almost all unit types with a pure foot soldier army, they also have good supporting archers and cav! Dacia will get torn apart by factions that have lots of ranged units such as Scythia, unless they are supported! (My opinion)

[XxSiViUrFxX]

is this barb invasion?

[Venon1995]

No is Multiplayer.

[jokey1134]

do online players use parthia as common as other factions or do they use them rarely?

[PKtheFirst]

Do you upgrade weapons/defense or experience? Experience is cheaper is it not?

[atlervetok]

how do you get such big units

[Unwardil]

Why is it I always see parthian armies with so much heavy cavalry? Persian Horse archers are pimp but I've never seen them in these Parthia Battles, just those useless desert infantry which can just about be counted on to die horribly very fast. The trouble with Parthian heavy cavalry is that Partian's lack a good heavy infantry to fix opponents while the heavy cavalry wheel and flank. But fighting thier horse archers is like hitting air.

[gopc32]

if i were the parthian dude, i would have gone in for strikes and then retreat and reform and charge again etc. since dacia had so many infantry.

[richi1173]

How can you tell if the unit is upgraded?

[Cexyanimal]

little flags underneath the big flag

[demomanchaos]

I hate it when people leave battles without admitting defeat. especially when they have a lot of archers left and all you have is some infantry.

[K0ragg]

I really enjoyed this battle im romanian dacians are my ancestors really thx for playng them :))) the dacians haved good cavalary when they battled with rome.Damn romans Decebal realy anoyed the romans :))) Great fight.Falxmen are very dangerous.

[darkforest0113]

Have you quit RTW totally for ETW?

[hazdude222]

he still puts up RTW videos but just not so many for the time being

[Cexyanimal]

lol count-dracula

[Ikefepor08]

man nice but dang that was quick

[leonet4lyfe]

wow that jerk deserved that horrible loss haha

nice job

[Venon1995]

Why is he a jerk just because he lost?

[BillyChaka]

he's a jerk because he was impatient and had no manners

[Venon1995]

??????? Who are you talking about ?About Vlad Dracu or about the Prince of Persia's oponent?

[BillyChaka]

i think you mean prince of macedon, and i'm talking about prince of macedon's opponent.

[Venon1995]

Sorry I mean't Prince of Macedon. Sorry.

[Kuhhrissuh4]

nice

[PrinceofMacedon]

thanks ;)

[manecas30]

i didnt understand in this movie how do u destroy those cataphracks with just falxmen and warbans...

[PrinceofMacedon]

Falxmen cream cavalry

[ForkbeardSvein]

I always liked the Dacians, as well as all other barbaric groups. And are glad that you're using them historically minded

-real men fight on foot

[PrinceofMacedon]

Glad you enjoyed, man =)

[tedindahouse]

are peasants basically bullet sponges?

[PrinceofMacedon]

They can be.

[war77inc]

No Human shields

[ZoneGrise]

I've always liked Dacia but I rarely see many people play them online. I was surprised to see them rip apart the Cataphracts like they did.

[PrinceofMacedon]

Well, if my opponent was paying attention, he would've ran away from my Falxmen ;)

[PrinceofMacedon]

No worries. You sound like a moron because you're stupid enough to think "fag" is an insult.

[PrinceofMacedon]

Wow, what a noob. You probably played my FAKE imposter, and you thought you were good because you beat that noob. Also, I accept challenges. Did you miss my games against Zeke, Jomen, Nordy, etc? The reason I get defensive is from morons like you who demand to play me despite the fact that I have over 320+ challengers now. You act just like Jomen. And I kicked Jomen's ass harder than anyone else's. Burn in hell, noob.

[jaymelgizmo]

What?? no horse archers?? lol

I once was locked in a titanic struggle with my pikemen against Seleucids' pikemen. It was starting to go against me and for a laugh I charged two peasant units into their flank and they broke one after another.

[PrinceofMacedon]

I've had videos where I used pigs as cavalry.  You're really surprised by this? lmao

[AntiJonassMovement]

your vids are great if it was back in teh alexander teh great day you would be a great war general (=

[PrinceofMacedon]

Thanks ;)

[Kalo1995]

I think that the peasants units are completly usless!

[PrinceofMacedon]

They are mostly useless (not completely useless)

[minihendrix12]

i love the parthians

[PrinceofMacedon]

Yeah, they're very deadly.

[yohanisburg]

Falxmen are awesome!

I've seen a couple of your videos when you were using them, or bustarme or something with swords, and cav charged them, and got completely massacred. It kind of seems a lot of people online are prejudiced against barbarian factions, so they underestimate their units and do what your opponent did with his cataphracts.

Cool! I like all of your videos, especially when you use barbarians.

[PrinceofMacedon]

Thanks, man, you should watch my latest battle where I used Gaul (if you like barbarians).

[ServerMaster42]

It is generally hard to defeat Parthia with the Dacians,but if you get then to upclose hand to hand fighting,any if you are a vampire LOL then you can defeat them! LOL Count Dracula LOL Vlad the Impaler!

[PrinceofMacedon]

Are you watching my videos or just leaving comments on each one? lol

[ServerMaster42]

Watching....lol..I study them.

[PrinceofMacedon]

Ah, I see. It just seemed like you were posting every 2 minutes ^_^

[ServerMaster42]

LOL Your vids are awesome...I've actually have used some of your strategies.

[PrinceofMacedon]

Thanks, man ;)

[darksaiyan2006]

Dracula or Vlad Dracul is already Romanian, not Dacian anymore. The Dacians had already been romanized for a while in the 15th century when Vlad reigned.

[PrinceofMacedon]

lol It's just a name. I change my name all the time.

[Venon1995]

Vlad Dracul? Where did you get that name? He's Vlad Tepes not Vlad Dracul.

[darksaiyan2006]

I know his name was Vlad Tepes, but I've been to Sighisoara.

[Cexyanimal]

how do i signup for online?

[PrinceofMacedon]

You don't.

[TrumpetHero11]

how r u fighting at night?

[PrinceofMacedon]

On the screen where you select the map, you can go the settings, and change the time of the battle.

[kangaroomc]

I like the way you've called yourself count dracula for the Dacians! well won, didn't know Falxmen were so good vs Cav. I've started playing online again, under the alias Solidsnake, so give me a shout if you see me. :)

[PrinceofMacedon]

lol I love to suck the blood! ^v^

[Ariminua]

I love the fire arrows in the dark...they're like fireworks of pure death...=D
