    Was a good video that.. The graphics are amazing for that type of game, but I'd prefer less open plan maps, maybe some fences and walls in the way, and a lot more trees.. Would create much more tactical battles.

    Overall though, good video, clear voice and well narrated

    Shame about the corrupt saves though

    Nice talkthrough =].

    I used to play a bit of Rome against my flatmate but i never liked the look of Empire and Napoleon since riflemen have never piqued my interest.

    Might consider it now after that video since my friend back home's been harassing me about it for a while now...

    format, steven, and vdbs thank you guys so much for you comments and feedback, i work hard to make these videos and all the people who thank me for the videos make it worth it. As for format and vdbs YOU have to BUY this game ASAP lol, you will never imagine the action that goes down. Its unbelievable

    would also like to add that i will have a new video up or two new videos very soon with some insane action you guys dont want to miss out. I'll make sure to keep you updated on this forum, and also if you've subscribed to my channel then you will now when they are being uploaded. Also since i think i need to give something back to my subscribers to show them my appreciation i have decided to provide exclusive content to my subs such as written document of my commentaries. You guys have taken your time to support me and sub me so this is my way of giving back to you guys giving you guys privileges over non-subscribers

    Re: Ability is nothing without opportunity.

    Not really a RTS fan, I've never had the ability to think tactically on that large a scale, so kudos to you for knowing what you are talking about! Video-wise, I thought the commentary was clear, and described the tactics and the reasoning well. Nice.

    Hey jonathan, thanks for the comment! Thats why im uploading these commentary videos. My aim is to share what i know and what i've learnt with you guys so you guys can learn to appreciate the game and at the same time learn to play it better. Remember practice makes perfect! If you keep playing battles and more battles then soon you will be able to think tactically on a large scale, and these commentaries, i hope, will help speed up that process

    Watched this vid and the one where it was you (French) v the dude who was the British and he tried to rush your artillery early on and failed big time.

    I have Empire Total War and just cant seem to get into this game or others like it :s
