There's something poetic almost about the Romans dying to the Gauls. A small village at the edge of the continent said "Fuck it", drank their potion and went ham.
Fun fact, Sparta did in fact not have walls for a very long time. They saw their hoplites as their wall and often found building a wall and hiding behind it cowardly.
I remember the joke about that actually. Spartans: don't build walls because everyone would be too afraid to attack Sparta Persians: don't attack Sparta because "that village without walls cannot be Sparta"
@@LOL-zu1zr I think he meant they never reached Sparta in the Greek-Persian wars. They did indeed support both Sparta and Athens in the peloponnesian war.
@@autumntaylor2533 dark forest hypothesis says that there is alien civ... but they are all quiet and hiding from a "big dave" in space that would destroy them if it ever found them, a super empire or "thing" that makes everyone else quiet
El Cid was huge if you spoke Spanish or Arabic. Basically he was a conqueror from the west that was so beloved a ruler that he was treated as an honorary Arabian Lord, in fact the name El Cid come from as-sayyid which literally translates to the Lord/Master. He also has some plays and best selling novels from that century.
While everyone ranks the gaul as a low tier civilisation...I stand by them with religious zeal. I promise it has NOTHING to do with the fact I loved the Asterix&Ambiorix comic books I swear.
Gaul are actually extremely strong, their unique industrial zone + Expanding borders on hills make them snowball really quickly. Besides, man at arms rush. No one does it like the gaul
That's Emperor Trajan. Caesar is his title. Julius Caesar (the original) is in the game, but he's a little more... gold, than Trajan. It's actually kinda funny, considering IIRC Trajan's major claim to fame was a big wall in the British Isles to keep the Celts stuck up north.
You're thinking of Hadrian - Trajan was the last great Roman conqueror-emperor who expanded Rome to its territorial height by defeating the Persians and the Dacians. Hadrian was his successor.
Something that may improve the civ 6 experience is turning on show yields and his icons so you can see what tiles are worth what and also see how far ahead the ai are
Dude. This is awesome. Your naked warriors are more like masses of unbridled, unwashed zealots, while your more elite knights and priest lords just sat back and watch the carnage unfold. Very cool gameplay, and bloody efficient too. That's one way to make use of the lower class. Gonna have to try some variation of this playstyle.
At 11:00 he say thats alot of faith, while making 23.7 per turn. Meanwhile im sitting at around 100 faith per turn and say „ That is not alot of faith.“
I like to think when you with nearly like 9 times more military power start massing troops at someone's border and they start noticing just an amber alert or tornado sirens starts playing throughout there cities to evacuate like every city has an alert that you are coming for them
That title reminds me of the random, cheap movie from random TV channel at night something about making clother evaporized/burning or something - also a guy with one hand, one leg and one eye
9:12 ages ago playing a game, some kind of action rpg or something (KotoR?). rescuing prisons/hostages, get prompt "Untie Hostage", kept misreading it as "Unite Hostage"... unite to freedom and/or my cause I guess idunno
Hey, so I made it to the end of the video and now a lot of hairy guys are outside of my house with weapons asking if I have time to learn about the one true god Me Go Face, do I let them in?
Wait a second... Absurdly outsized military, Insane theocratic dictatorship, Distrust for technology, Absolute disregard for sapient life, ...Are we sure this isn't a Warhammer 40k game?
Uhhh ... Uhh youtube autorecommended me this video. Upon the firsth three minutes ive realized; you do not know which unit is weakest. 2) the weakest unit is weak for a reason
Not sure if you knew this but there’s a 4X Warhammer 40k game called Gladius Relics of War that I think you would really enjoy. It’s only domination but you can devour terminators, AKA Necrons, as bug people, AKA Tyranids/ the og Zerg.
Fun fact, Sparta was historically not fantastic at war. They had basically 1 tactic and 1 kind of infantry, and the vast majority of their martial power was to keep their slave population in check... which outnumbered them 3 to 1. This message was brought to you buy Athens.
Fun fact: the impact of Mongol Empire's conquest (and destruction) is visible from pre-modern proxy measurements of the Earth's climate. The Mongols shrinked the environmental footprint of Humanity by literally shrinking the human population.
