@@ironknight84music on Amiga is AMAZING and graphic is better even if commodore version come years after. Only worst thing in Amiga version are swords
You just reminded me of the subtle things loved in this game... music score, gratifying low distant "boom" sound while successfully hitting castle wall with catapult. Awe man it tingles☺
Fantastic, I enjoyed this sooo much as a kid, thank you very much to the producers, designers, and other folks involved for devolping and producing this game. Even the cover box art is sublime.
The C64 version was so well executed. Great graphics (the screen at 31:10 is one of the best still screens I've seen on the 64). It seemed to contain some small details not included in other versions, i.e. if you seek Robin's help before a raid the sidekick on the first screen is green: nice :)
I loved how you knew you were doing crappy the more crappy and messed up your king looked lol! I used to love this. Nice to see it again after all these years
The Amiga version came first. Of course it had superior graphics. However, gameplay was not very good on the Amiga. A Commodore 64 conversion followed. And while its graphics couldn't stand up to the Amiga's, the game was thoroughly enjoyable on the trusty C=64. For instance, with a decent joystick you could actually win tournaments. In the Amiga version, it didn't seem to matter what you did during the joust. For C=64 standards, the graphics were great. Not the best, because for that you need to visit "The Last Ninja." And if you would travel back in time and compare the game's graphics with other computer standards, you'd find that the C=64 version did pretty well.
I Played this game on my Commodore 64 upto 1991. I was addicted to this game. I liked it and a ninja 🥷 game. Good games. I still have that obsolete Antique Comodore 64 in my Attic. I wish to play these games on my Laptop….. if there is any option….. nostalgic. Further I wish to sell C64 as an Antique along with its floppy discs etc…. Anyone interested. 😊
weird how this longplay turned out, usually in a dozen of turns someone gains dominance and the game is over in 2 dozen turns or smth like that. the strategy to win is to claim someone's home castle as early you can, then a 2nd one, after that win is quaranteed
There was this bug that when you had a single opponent left, you could stab his horse in a joust and you would loose all your territories. However, the bot would then just focus on conquering these empty territories and you could move to his home castle and win.
Always loved The c64 sid version. Just something about The sid Music. Sure Amiga have better graphich. But The c64.. love it. Oh Yaa. One more thing. Do The Girl drop her dress in The Amiga version? Cant recall it. She sure do in The c64 version 😂
Yeah, I totally agree. I played again the Amiga version just yesterday, and the C64 is so much more playable in all ways. And no, the Lady doesn't drop her dress on Amiga. 😀
Not sure what you were doing, there were several points where you could have attacked the home castle of the brown or the green Normans... but you didn't.
I stopped to look for a minute and stayed for the entire show. But dude, no tournaments, no raiding??? You didn't even visit Robin of Sherwood once! Good game. But spice it up a little next time.
Partita mooolto migliorabile!! Io ci giocavo con tutti i giocatori alcuni erano difficili!! E se avanzi lentamente, puoi sposarti una donna e SALVARE ANCHE LE ALTRE : ce n'è una bionda una rossa e una mora!! Poi ci sono i raid che ti permettono di fare un botto di oro ma devi mettere l'armata nel tuo castello! Poi ci sono i tornei!! Poi ci sono i tre aiuti nella foresta di Locksley!! Se uno ha un'armata di 50 uomini e 10 cavalieri glieli riduci del 20% se non ricordo male... Io mi divertivo a battere tutti, costruivo una torre nell'ultimo territorio in basso a sinistra e "dominavo la situazione", vincevo i tornei facevo i raid e al giocatore veniva la faccia sorridente. Poi facevo il torneo, perdevo tutto e riconquistavo tutto! Tanto con l'armata nella torre di 300 soldati, 100 cavalieri e 4 catapulte chi mi batteva? Con 1 soldatino riconquistavo tutto, poi tornavo e facevo l'assedio ( contro 8 o 16 soldati ) e utilizzando pure l'ultimo aiuto di Robi Hood ! Tutta una strategia, per poi vincere facile dopo aver fatto il conquistatore di territori e di donne!! XD !!!
No tournaments, no raids, no Robin Hood's Help ??? Only a marriage? And the blonde and the brown haired lady ???!? Many better things you can do. Also playing with different saxons. Some are quite difficult, many skills are weak... Poor games, but we had nothing else 33 years ago: the rest was supplied by the teen's fantasy !! ;-)
@@Rheinmetall1 :-( unfortunately my Commodore 64 didn't work anymore, nor my 5 1/4 floppy disk r/w... Last time I played, it was 1989 I guess. Click on the sherwood forest to ask robin's help, before siege or attack... :-(((
I'm just sat here laughing at the opening text... "When the king returned from the holy land, he knighted 6 great warriors who had carried him to victory over the INFIDELS" 😂😂😂😂 I can imagine the political implications this would have if this was written into a game today 😂😂😂
