  • Ggjvdfjhvcghkkkvvvjj sddaddass

  • Dude, I love your videos!

    Keep up the great commentaries! :D

  • Lets unplug this mic but whe could still hear him say lets end this recording??

  • I love Rome Total War because it's during the classical era but I prefer Medieval II because it's more balanced and it's around 1500 AD and you start with militia and then you will be able to get gunpowder

  • @RuiGomes43 1500 CE is the start of the european renaissance. Medieval starts before the european renaissance.

  • @NodachiDaimyo I know, But it's cooler that you can play between Medieval era and Renaissance era

  • lesson one in troop deployment limber up lol great battle

  • 'He Who Dares Wins'

  • @spectraldistortion ROME TOTAL WAR IS THE GREATEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED. But thats my opinion. I think you should start with Medieval 2 total war. Both are brilliant games but you must play RTW.

  • i just fought this amazing battle with Macedon. Even though i lost and my general had fled, my royal pikes fought on. They were the last units and they fought off 5 other spartan units but eventually had to flee. There were 31 left. Reminds me of 300. They killed 262 units by themselves! Now thats what i call legendary - sons of Leonidas. - (even though he was spartan!) nice vid Pom

  • if you is so thusty drink wata

  • Dude you are a military genius. You're going to be like the best U.S. general ever. Have you ever lost a battle?

  • it's always important to limber up beforea battle

  • Can some one help me I downloaded rome total war barbarian invasoin and I switch the disks with rome total war the orignal I try to play online,but it says Not Compatible before I downloaded barbarian invasoin it was all ok. Help me Please.

  • You're genious. It seems like you think "what would happen if you do this"-way, you truly deserve the name of the prince of macedon!

  • He should have moved his cataphracs to confont your cav when he saw them moving :L.

  • your opponent made a single mistake, but it was a fatal one. Cataphracts are perhaps the best counter cavalry, especially against other armored cavalries like Companions, Praetorian and Gold Brand. Cataphracts are slower than the others due to their extra heavy armor, but their mace attack completely destroys other cavalries. so using them offensively to chase archers or whatever is futile, any other cavalry is better at it. he tried to use them offensively and got burned. game over.

  • Hmm its ironic that the prince has so much interest and love for Alexander but he plays nothing like Alexander fought battles hmmm ironic

  • @whosajigaya He has no choice over his opponent's army. The only choice he can make that will slightly relate the battle to an Alexander-type would be by choosing Macedon to fight with, which he almost always does.

  • @Recruitsoldier The style of your enemy does not need to inflict on how you play ,

  • @whosajigaya What exactly do you mean by that? Actually, it does. The only decision that cannot be possibly altered unless the host doesn't permit it is by choosing a certain faction, for Prince it's usually Macedon. After that, when the battle begins, he has no way to fight the battle in the way Alexander the Great did, because his opponent will be making decisions at the same time.

  • @Recruitsoldier Erm and if the opponent makes decision you point is ???

    YOU can make decisions as well forcing your opponent to counter those decision , or you can ignore their moves completely and press on with your own plans

  • @whosajigaya Alright, let's do a hypothetical battle then. I have 4 Silver Shield Pikes. My opponent has 4 Royal Pikes. I have one Companion and Greek Cavalry and he has one Companion. My plan is to engage the Royal Pikemen with my Silver Shields, attack the enemy Companion with my cavalry, then strike the rear of the Royal Pikes to obtain victory. When I go for his Companion, he moves to his other flank and gets a Royal Pike in the way. There. Now if I try to attack the Companion, my cavalry

  • @whosajigaya (continued) will hit the Royal Pike and die. Now I have to make a new plan. See? In warfare no plan will work out. You always have to alter it because you can never know for certain what your enemy's moves will be, you can only assume them.

  • I hope you will keep on making the live commentaries when your new gaming PC arrives :) It was nice to see your reactions to the battles instead of just a voice.

    Plus

    Your adventure videos are great keep them up!

  • I new it would come soon prince/Alex and even thought the lag it was still (in my last comments opinion better and I wish you a nice and happy day :D plese reply i r lonly :(((((((! and dont know how to make vidz.

  • hey i bet u cant beat my inpenatrable formation meet me online on RTW at 7 pm this thursday good luck

  • i actually liked watching you play instead of just the replay

  • Here on our blogg the TotalwarTech team tries to solve your problems and questions regarding Total War games. We also do Chronicles and game reviews. Follow us on: totalwartech.blogg.no/

  • 2 things!

    1. can plez do these kind of battles instead of live coms cause these r easier 2 see than through ur camera

    2. will u be doing shogan total war 2?

  • with respect to reality, which is better? Rome Total War or Medieval? I mean, will axe and blunt weapons cause blunt trauma and swords cause cuts? will flaming arrows cause panic and will some of the flaming arrows be extinguished by winds?

    please let me know, I'm not sure which one to buy, I love ancient warfare (dark ages and pre medieval) but MTW is the newer game, thanks in advance and prince, your battles rule... hails!

  • @spectraldistortion Medieval 2 is better balanced, and it has more realistic movements. But I prefer RTW for diversity and because of my huge interest in Ancient Warfare. But if you just want superior gaming, then I suggest Napoleon Total War. 

  • @PrinceofMacedon

    I don't like post medieval warfare at all, guns ruined everything...

    so I guess I'll get Rome Total War, I watched a few MTW videos and they don't have me glued on like RTW vids do, also, I read a lot about that period.

    I hope I meet you online someday and gain valuable experience from the battle. Thank you for your quick reply prince.

  • @spectraldistortion

    Get rome total war and install europa barbarorum. Or...get medieval and wait until europa barbarorum 2 is finished.

  • @spectraldistortion funny thing is that sowrds in the middle ages didn't cut. They were used to bludgeon the enemy knight to death. It's rather difficult to cut someone in chainmail, or platemail.

  • @MessiahComing

    nay, swords were still primarily used for cutting, a long sword can go through chainmail if used correctly and also, not all soldiers were mail/plate clad most wore leather armor, they couldn't afford a knight's armor.

    long swords, such as the hand and the half highlander swords were made to counter armor, they were used to pierce the armor or bludgeon it like you said, the pommel could be used for that, also, they developed a new technique called half swording to counter armor.

  • @spectraldistortion Medieval has a darker battle light and the fighting gets boring quiker

  • @spectraldistortion You can get every total war game for like 30 bucks on steam so.

  • @spectraldistortion Rome is better, in rome the turn is half a year, and 2 turns a person ages one year, as the would, but in medieval a turn is 2 years and the person only ages six months. That should be a decideing factor mate.

  • @555emperor The turns in Rome are by seasons... and there are 4 seasons. So 4 turns = 1 year.

  • @spectraldistortion I would say Rome but Medieval II is good

  • can you do more siege battles your strategies are awsome

  • is there a way to get rid of the flags?

  • not liking the lagg. Live commentary was actaully a really good thing. Im not sure if it makes it harder for you to do your thing but, LIVE COMMENTARY IS AWSOME!

  • does it bother you to have low textures and details?

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah this is definately better. you can really see what's happening on screen this way. Also i thought it was a good idea of your opponent to put his general with a silver-shield legionary unit. granted they're not the best unit in rtw but they're half decent and much more mobile than phalanx units so u can move ur general around better.

  • Am I an idiot to not notice the lag?

  • in a long time battle u said that ur computer never lagged :(

  • I liked the other version with the camera better.

  • That battle was clean!

  • It might be laggy, but at least we can see what's going on now. I'd say this is preferable to the live-commentary format, just in my opinion.

  • Shogun should be similar to medieval style warfare, do you think youll like it? It also goes back to old style sun tzu tactics and will look stunning. But I dunno, im postive about it, but i like jap history (along with a lot of other histories lol), so personally I hope i like it and if so it would be great to see you do some vids of it if you like it also.

  • Guys now that we have full screen u still fucking complain. Just shut the fuck up. Be happy that he oven got full screen for us.

  • You bought experience? That's new!

  • ur realy good

  • Ah! I haven''t watched any of your videos FOR AGES!!! Its nice to see some of you total EPICNESS again. :D

  • DO YOU guys EVEN follow his adventure channel? HE BAUGHT A NEW GODDAMN COMPUTER! Be patient!

  • @pijef shut your mouth!!!

  • please fix ur computer we love you :'( PLEASE UR THE BEST!!!

  • when i use fraps to make a vid and record it and i go to the windows media player to watch it it keeps sayng windows media has encounterd a problem and cant play this video why does it do that and how do i fix this?

  • i liked the battles the other way

  • At 0:25 are all of those "w"s next to the names of your games standing for wins? that is a pretty impressive win streak wish i could match up to that

  • hey prince, when you get your new Spartan comp in a few weeks or whenever its due (the ninth was it?) PLEASE keep doing the live commentary. idk which you personally enjoy yourself, but the live commentary is so much more entertaining and insightful.

  • I hope that you can repair you gaming computer. great battle as always.

  • @A101stEagle check out my latest Adventure Video (on my other channel). You'll see that I have no need to repair my gaming PC

  • @PrinceofMacedon hahaha i loved the video. I bet you'll eat a large Godfather's pizza while you play on your new computer. am i right? :)

  • @PrinceofMacedon what do you use to record? =)

  • @bananakiller21

    Fraps

  • @PrinceofMacedon sorry for asking i just was asking i really am sorry

  • POM have you tried to use gamebooster 2.0?

  • hey man, a tip, when you go fix you gamer pc, buy a no-break, with this you never get a motherboard fried again

  • awesome finally no camcorder

  • nooo please go back in your other filming style :(

  • @nickykolkie dude, please dont make comments like that on POM's channel. Hes trying his best to make us all happy, and you should be respectful of that. With teh camcorder, people were telling him to go back so he did, now that hes doing this again please be considerate of all the work he is putting in.

  • It's BAAACK! WOOOHOOO! :D :D :D CONGRATS!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @Craptola1 I would look into what specs to get for Shogun 2 since its only 2 weeks away

  • Wow! #1831 already?! 0.0

  • HOw do u record? like tht

  • The battle was okay... You need Xzibit to pimp your computer! haha!

  • @kwongsoo you'd be offically pimped

  • Yes! Back to replays!

  • I really like the live commentary format, when you actually see how you battle and your view as it progresses. I don't think this format is as entertaining but it is ok.

    With the number of regular viewers and subscribers I don't understand how you can't make money either from putting advertising on your videos or getting a basic external website with advertising and a pay pal donation button. you seem to be good with graphics your background is awesome.

  • @DrivebySerenading im not a partner on my gaming channel. I am, however, a partner on my travel channel. You should probably watch my next travel video which is going up either tonite or tomorrow. It will shed light on your concerns.

  • @PrinceofMacedon prince can you plz play some more napolin total war i loved your old vids and i watch all of your vids but i like napiolin total war the most

  • @the101gamers how would that be even possible given m PC situation?

  • @DrivebySerenading i don't think he can make money with his gaming channel bcoz of copyright issues , unless he would had a contract or somethin , and that's why he made the travel channel so he can make his own content , but i may be wrong.

  • @Nycku007 there is a guy called Attila16 who advertises on his game play videos and has his own website, but i'm not sure about copyright or if he makes money.

  • I miss these commentaries but I'm unsure if I prefer the live ones now. But all the same a great video :D

  • What ever the Format, Your Vids are always AWSOME!!!!!

    ^_^

  • i like the replays

  • lag and lag :(

  • @Lordsebastian101 no crap, dude, you already know my pc's broken. What the hell do you expect?

  • @PrinceofMacedon sorry just it didn't lag this much before

  • @Lordsebastian101 no, actually, it lagged a lot before. Before I got my new computer, all of my videos lagged (just like this). Obviously, when I got my new computer, it ran great. But since I'm back to using my old PC, it's going to lag (just like this).

  • @PrinceofMacedon hey man awesome vids by the way how do you no so much about all of this stuff about roman warfare? great battle

  • @Lordsebastian101 Haha i've beaten you on Rome Total War :)

  • @Knight0fBrittania do i know you?

  • @Lordsebastian101 Well i know you as i played my first low money battle against you and won and you were in an alliance.

  • prince i like the videos more when they are on the camera

  • Yay for traditional replay! Nice maneuvering, as always.

  • Why replay?.i wanne see live:(

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! lol i just watched your old vid you vs raptor captor

    "gthraptorcaptor" and he is still tolking trash about you :P lol dude i cant beleave it

    this was a gg

  • my pc is 10 years old how do u play rome total war so good

  • @dawnofwartwo I used to have a crappy little Vaio i bought back in 2002 it ran RTW pretty good. The biggest problem people have with games and computers, is that they want to run it on max details and max resolutions, knowing they cant. Shadows and reflections take the most out of a card. next is detail .... lower them :) and play on small to normal scale troops.

  • this is like a POM battle of yore. when manuvering won the battle. nice video prince

  • So which advantage is the best when composing an army?

    Inf?

    Cav?

    Archers?

  • @JewishKamikaze they all are strong in thier own right...

    archers make the enemy constantly move and weaken thier troops

    infantry attack their infantry and support cav in cav on cav fights

    cav support the infantr by performing hamer and anvil attacks on the infantry, they also run off archers and rounting units

  • @JewishKamikaze usually everything

  • lets all sell cookies so pom can buy a new pc.

  • Have you ever played again a player that uses Elephants? or is that a no no ONLINE?

  • @LOPS666Orange i have been in two battles recently where the other players took elephants and/or artillery even tho it was against the rules they were probabaly new to the game

  • so this is not your gaming computer?

  • @PrinceofMacedon I'm sure this is a stupid question, since I AM NO PC WIZ.

    Since your old pc is dead, have you thought about putting in your old power supply and graphics card in to the old fart one? Not sure it would even be possible, but could be worth a try.

  • might i suggest u take teh advice of most of these comments and create a paypal account. mite be worth ur while

  • Personally I enjoy the Live commentary. If you could keep it Live but with this camera that would be great. either way ill keep watching, hope you get it the way you want it

  • NOOOO! I almost got to play with you! I was going to play with GeneralArolias on your hosted game but my game froze up.... damnit, until next time... 'runner' xD

  • it costs nothing to get ahold of a pc that can play rome: total war. I have like two PCs in my basement that would run it fine. fix this! We need rome total war content!

  • @superbamse his job isnt to constantly enertain us dude,if he dosent want to shell out the money to fix his old pc then he dosent have to

  • you a good general

  • Buy  a Gaming laptop :)

  • @muffin8or ah no

  • Yeah i rather have the other way 

  • I think we need to raise money for the Prince to have a new computer. Ya, anyone else agree? lol :)

  • @TrowaJWBarton he should make a paypal :p alot of people would probably donate

  • @TrowaJWBarton lol everyone gives him 75 cents he will have enough..maybe even 50 cents

  • @TrowaJWBarton Dude I would happily send the parts from my old pc to him. But I'm from the UK and the post would be very expensive :(

    Surely it can only be one or two parts that are broken, I'm certain people are more than happy to donate them that live closer.

  • @andord123 ya, I'm primarily concerned since Shogun 2 is pretty hardcore on the computer. And he would need a much newer computer to play and give us HD quality video plays :)

  • @TrowaJWBarton he already bought a new computer but it won't arrive until mid march

  • Great vid friend but i prefer the way you did it befour so there was no lag lol i may be the only one but yeah i liked it.

  • when i play empire total war and i deploy my army in a nice formation but then i move them foward they all end up just going into a straight line.... why does it do that??

  • @Tarheels313 Group your troops with (G) then when you move them forward they will stay in whatever formation you put them in. Hope this helped if not get back to me and i will glady end my life from shame!!

  • yesss, finally good quality

  • your computer have been broken for ages :S is there gonna be any shogan 2 total war?

  • prince a good way to reduce lag is to take out the grass setting it makes it a lot less laggy

  • Shogun 2 is now available at steam :)

  • @yokris0 its a demo and its only one historic battle

  • @1Hawk2Hawks yeah i ment demo

  • Hey Pom, what do you think about shogun 2 Total War. you can customize your own General, and units, that is freaking awesome or not?

  • nice!!

  • Heeeeey! You're actually doing RTW again and we can actually see it! lol

  • Shut up Prince, you suck!! lol jk jk your awesome

  • Oh yay it works now

  • yes it is remotely fixed!!!!

  • Hey guys, i just brought this game and im playing the create your own battles to get used to the controls, can you guys give me some tips before i start playing online? Thanks.

  • @Deegster96 He actually posted a slight FAQ on hotkeys (I believe) awhile back, named Rome Total War FAQ #1. Hope that helps a bit.

  • @Rusaarules thanks mate

  • Old style battle! Glad to see that, but I liked that "third person" :D

    Hope you'll get your PC fixed soon!

  • i think the comp works well, even with a lag. Not that i dont see ur face anymore, but i can now see the battle

  • You need to ask donation to fix your computer. It's been too long, and we can't take it anymore!

  • HOLY SHIT! when did you repair your computer? :D

  • I like it how you use to film it :)

  • hey your filming like you used to

  • Like that

  • I always think that cataphracts have really low morale when they get charged or someth

  • I also like the live com better, it teaches more when you can see somebody managing the troops in real time. Of course I understand fraps would make battles almost unplayable for you, so whatever works works right .
