 Charge now! Charge! YAAAH! Oh my god! You enjoyed Tarves. Ultimate epic battle simulator. And even that weird one with the gorillas. Now, over the mountains comes another battle. One that allows you to take control of your armies in a more strategic and hands-on way. This is... Shieldwall. I'll read everybody welcome to Shieldwall. This is a game that has not been released yet. But I got in touch with the devs and they were kind enough to give me a beta code because of course this is going to generate them loads of money when an adventure releases. The developers behind this game made Formatia, I think it was called. And I never actually played that game. It did seem quite interesting where you could not only be strategic but take control of your armies in a more third-person kind of role than an omnipotent god as it were. And you know me, if it's anything about tactics, oh, I am all over it. RTS is all love, love, love, love. But this is actually kind of like RTS and also third-person kind of battle. So we're going to choose the only scenario we can which is the Battle of Arar. The Battle of Arar was fought between the migrating tribes of the Helvetii and four Roman legions. Under the command of Gaius Julius Cetheran, 58 BC. This was the first major battle of the Gaelic walls. The Helvetii were a tribe that originated for what is now Switzerland. Just prior to the Battle of Aziza, they had commenced on a massive migration through Roman Gaul towards the Atlantic coast. At Geneva, the Romans destroyed the wooden bridges across the Rhône and constructed 19 miles of fortifications. The Helvetii tribe tried to migrate by another route and were crossing the river Arar using rafts and boats. Caesar was informed by his scouts and proceeded to engage the Helvetii. Three parts of the Helvetii forces had crossed the river and Caesar routed the fourth part left of his side of the river killing a great many and driving the rest into the woods. I didn't know, I think this was taking place in Julius' campaign of Gaul which was incredibly successful and they managed to squash all of them. Pretty much taking care of... I think it was Upper Alpine Gaul, was it called or something like that? I don't know, either way I want to do a big shout out right now to Historia Civilis. This is a channel that actually documents the whole process and everything that happened in Caesar's life I think actually and I've been binge watching them. It's going to be a guilty pleasure as it were and if you are also interested in history I would highly suggest checking out that guy. Here's a beautiful thing, he's a one-man army. I love that man. So here we go, look at us! Woo! We're going to be gullious, gullious, here's a rallyus. You purchase troops, you do fortifications, you take points. It's going to be fun. I cannot wait, this is going to be awesome. I'm a little bit nervous though. I don't know any of the controls and I did look in the options and there was none. Okay, so here we are. Oh, look at me go! Press numbers to hire militia. Cost 15, one control plus one to kill. Press zero to hire defenders. Ooh, okay, so let's get some defenders. Where's my budget? Oh, I see it. Okay, so I'm getting defenders. Oh, I get them over time. So these guys will defend the... I'm assuming the thingy. But I'm going to buy some militia because we're going to need that. Oh, we've reached our unit limit. Isn't it great? Oh, look at this. This is so cool. Oh, if I just hold right, we do a selection. Okay, right. How do I do run? Follow me. Right, okay. So this is where we are. This is our fortification. Good. Oh, hold on. I saw that. I saw that. How do we attack? Follow me. V is missiles. Charge. G is hold. And T is testudo. I don't know what testudo. What's testudo? Oh, it's block against arrows. That's great. Okay. What's missile? Missiles because we've got no archers. Right. So we're going to hopefully... I don't know where we go. Now we've got points at the top. As you can see, we've got point A, D, E and F are occupied and B and C are also occupied. Oh, here we go. Here we go. Charge. Go. My buddies. Go. Right. I'm going to go around the back. I'm going to go around the back. I'm going to flank them. Julius Caesar. By the back. We are. I didn't see this. Oh, my God. My help. Okay. It's time to run. Help. Defenders. Help. Oh, we lost. We lost. I had too many defenders and not enough militia. Oh, God. I need to heal. Yes. Fire at them. Plot out the sun. Excuse me, guys. Could you open the gate? I mean, I'll hide here. There we go. Yes. Defenders. Kill them. This is great. I will get the last laugh if it kills me. I mean, whoop. Oh, God. That was close. In I go. In I go. Do I heal in here? Oh. Oh, how do I heal? Yes. Yes. Militia. To me. Follow. Right. I don't know how I get health though. I got a horn, which is left shift. Oh, I can throw my javelin. Oh, my God. This is amazing. Can I throw my javelin? Okay. Right is whole shield up. Okay. So we've only got our one, but that's good. That's good. I'll take that. Right. I'll take that. I'll take that. Oh, my God. This is a detail. This is beautiful. Right. We are losing by points by a lot. Now we're going to go where the greens came from. Because we just killed all of them. Oh, here we go. Here we go. This is it. This is it. Capture. Yes. Yes. Now when you capture a point, you could also, or we can do upgrades. Allows to hire legions. Increase the limit of unit 25. I think we need a hero respawn time. Reduce the time of respawn. Flags heal aura. Ooh. Heal units in the absence of enemies. Why don't we have that? Is that not a thing anyway? Because I'm not healing. Hold on. Let me get that. I kind of need that. I'm going to get that. So when we raise this, I should be able to heal. Oh, this is so cool. I love this. Okay. Am I healing? Oh, I am. I'm doing it slowly though. Okay. But we have two points. Greens are still in the leads. I'm blooming gulls. Now I'm healing really slow. Okay. But I'm going to go in. I'm going to go in. I've got my... I mean, this was a tactic of the Romans. What they would do is they would throw their spears just before the enemy charged them, and then they would run in with their swords. Oh, here we go. Here we go. Oh, we lost one. Oh, dear. Oh, dear. We just lost it. It's just been taken by green, I think. I think I can get some more troops, actually. Some have died. Oh, maybe they got... No. No, we're good. We're good. Yes. Our defenses are holding. We'll catch them up, guys. We'll catch them up. Let's hide some more people. Oh, I'm at my limit, apparently. I think I can get some more defenders. Although I can't... Can I get defenders here? No, I can't get defenders here. All right. Oh, my God. Here they come. Hold. Hold. Hold formations. Oh, God shield. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Polly. At least I can't do that. Oh, God. Change weapon. Change weapon. Change your swords. Here we go. Here we go. Hold. Hold on. Hold your formation. You're surrounded. Buy more militia. I'm dead. I think we got this, though. I think we got this. I could be wrong. Oh, no. We'll die. Space to respawn. Haha. No, no, no, no, no. No, we're spawned. We're spawning. We're spawning peeps. There we go. Surprise attack. I want to change weapon. I want to get my spear. If I throw my spear. Oh, oh, oh. I just killed my dude. Oh, now you don't. Yeah. Yes. There we go. Nice one, lads. Nice one. We're just going to buy some more people. And then we're going to charge off. Victorious. Totem. I don't know. I don't know any Italian. We're all Italian. Good luck around. Okay. So we're going to grab this one. This has been taken by the greens. We got this. We got this, guys. We could probably get some upgrades. I want to get Legionaries, man. I want to get Legionaries. Yes. Yes. I don't know how much those guys cost. But we're going to get them. So we've got A, B. And now we've got F. Oh, I thought this would be C. I didn't know where the other ones are. This is so much fun. I love it. So we can hold that. Do we hold our shields by doing that? I'm not sure. I don't know how I get. Oh, here we go. Two. They cost 20. Oh, wow. Okay. I don't want to kill any of my militia. Oh, they got B again. Damn it. Oh, there they are. There they are. Shield.

Like it's going to be close. I think we've lost. No. Damn. They beat us by two. No, you don't suckers. Legionaries ambush. Yes. Haha. Do we have a banner standard? What does he need to respawn? I'm gonna get as many as I can here. We're still winning. We need to push the fight to the enemy We could try and take down their fort now what the goals would do at least some of them They would do I come up with the tactics called But they would leave their villages and then burn everything to the ground that way reducing how much? Support or how many resources the Romans could get reduce melee damage by 5% if we're in the flag Infrared who gets more missiles. Oh, we need that. We need that. Oh, it's their village Okay, okay guys form up. We're still team. Okay missiles and throw. Oh We got one we got one we not do it again. It's on cooldown. Okay. Oh, no. I was hit. You come on. It was it run in just take it Get him charge Knocked Julius Caesar over Right follow me on me on me lads. Oh, they've got a few but we're gonna take that town Can I get defenders here over click? Oh, we've got we've got the block We've got the block on down. Oh lock down Okay, this is ours now so we can now get some defenders if we wanted to we can defend this So these are probably more vital areas to take is the gate broken. Oh the gate is broken So if we wanted to we could repair it. Oh you buggers here. Oh, they're raising the flag Greens have a lot of them. Are we are we about to engage? No, we're not this is so much potential for online play This is awesome Yeah In the seals we got this we got this guys. We got this So we've got that fort. We've got our fort I'm just wondering if I should kill some of the defenders although the gate looks like it's wide open But maybe that's because we're not attacked. We're not being attacked. There we go There we go. Can I get some more peeps? No, no, I can't okay, but what about upgrades? We've got 200 Increase damage to gates by 20% or reduce missile cooldown We'll get the cooldown because I think that's how we're gonna win these battles is just by launching missiles Okay, I think they went off to go get their the fort back. So that's fine. We'll get this Pebbles are not doing too hot. They've only got one. There we go. Come on guys. We'll take this down there Yes, that's the way to do it friends. We are Romans. These are not but savages Okay, we're gonna go this way. I haven't been this way before. I don't know what's over here. Is that the river? Can we cross the river? Is that possible? Oh, yes Aha Greens is it? You're not looking too good. Actually greens are looking okay. It's purples that are out I think yeah purples aren't gaining anything Testudo It's okay. Okay guys. We're gonna volley volley and go You missed them. Okay. We just hold it hold it block tee you fools Okay, we can we volley again. How can I tell when it's ready? Okay, and we're gonna slowly go towards attack charge the gate It's only greens that we need to worry about. Where's our army? Oh as long as they don't come in behind us. I'll be happy. Oh No, they're capturing a point. That's fine. That's fine. There we go. Keep keep that tee keep that tee cool We need a push we can get through this Yes breakthrough attack charge charge them They're over this way get that guy get that guy and we'll capture this and then I think they've we've got all the Forts, I think maybe well, they've got one that doesn't have a gate on it though We can't get any more troops.

We could just plow them in And some more legionaries and I think they're about to be completely destroyed and you know for the hell of it Subspirers standard point plus one Yes, and there we go. Any ones that were lost have just been respawned So they their hero can go somewhere else. I don't know how you repair this though I think you need defenders to do that, but at this point. We just need to squash them just need to squash them So wherever that leader is he's gonna quickly rush to his spawn point and try and get some troops back Right, they would have they would have got this right.
