Total Tactics - How To: Guerrilla Gunpowder | Total War: Warhammer 3 

Lmao I wasn't initially planning on doing Guerilla Warfare with this match I was initially gonna try some sorta World War 1 style thing but when I saw his army and the terrain I had to switch things up on the fly. Glad I could inspire my American neighbours to the south haha Much love from Canada bro!

@@MalleusGaming57 oh nah I'm not judging. It's hysterical. Best wishes 😂

tbf the steam tank is decently mobile.

Malleus showing me my place even with my best faction XD

Haha it was well fought buddy! I was extremely concerned for my army the whole time!

@@averylewis1753 You tried well, but you definetly did make a lot of mistakes in that game, I would suggest you if you truly want to improve give it a watch again and try to spot your mistakes, I know noone is perfect and making mistakes even when knowing what to do happens but there were definetly a lot of things that went wrong there, especially as just composition wise you were better situated then your opponent. Just a general tipp, you have to be more carefull with letting your units get isolated, like most of your high value stuff died because you send it in unsupported.

@@Velatus5978 I did and I can see alot of my mistakes as hindsight is always 20/20 mostly towards my panic near the end though the biggest "mistake" how ever was not hunting the outriders but until they revealed themselves i had no idea Malleus had them

@@averylewis1753 I would generally suggest you to always keep a fast moving reserve near your arty, empire knights are great for that, they work well against almost every to buy you some time to respond and are also fast enough to once arty isn't important anymore still affect the battlefield. Due to them having mass and such they are also better at stopping lord and chariots then infantry. And well you can kind of almost always expect an enmy that isn't dwarfs to have some kind of tool to go after your arty I'd they see you play empire. Also just learning and rewatching the video is already a great step, I am sure you are on a good way to learn!

Absolutely and very well said! It’s very easy to make mistakes or even freeze up when faced with something unexpected, happens to me in these games a lot! Analysis Paralysis is definitely a thing, literally something they have to train soldiers to overcome. Cheers bud!

I mean, total war is a pretty small and niche game franchise so there isn’t going to be many people watching content for it

@@spangebobb3903 shut up and like and subscribe what are u talking about ahah literally tho thats how it works isnt it

Cheers bro that’s really nice of you to say and I super appreciate it! Hopefully in time I’ll get there

Haha the intention is to cover more unit types but there’s just so much that can be done with the Gunpowder units! Cheers bro!

@@MalleusGaming57 Yeah gunpowder are quite fun to play around with. Wondering if you got any upcomming cavalry ideas? Cav/gunpowder formation ?

@@Aldor623 haha I do have something I’ve been thinking about for a Cavalry army that fits in with this topic, I have yet to try it out and I have no idea how practical it’d be but I’m sure it’ll be at the very least hilarious 😆

Thank you glad you enjoyed! I appreciate the sub and hope it helps you out, let me know how things go bud!

Thanks a lot!

Lmao I'd be so down for that! They can throw squigs at people or something

Glad you enjoyed this bud and thank you so much! That sounds like a great idea I'll definitely look into that cheers bro!

Thank you glad you enjoyed it! Those Helstorms had me sweating bullets the whole time I was so glad to take them out

Thanks buddy! I totally wanna look more into the historical aspects, especially Fabian. That sounds epic, I hate fighting against Wood Elves so using their own woods to blow them up is perfect!

Or, use guerillas in Napoleon Total War. There's a peninsular campaign where the Spanish have guerilla line regiments, even...

Definitely gonna be looking more into his tactics and learning more of him.

Bro I was surprised myself 😆 thanks so much!

Yeeee broski!! Haha I appreciate it bud glad you're enjoying the content and thanks so much for the support on this epic journey

Thanks bud!

Yeah it'd be interesting, I feel like it'd be more improvising on the fly, seeing what the map is like and trying to adapt to the different conditions. This army was admittedly not designed for the purpose of Guerilla style fighting, I changed my plan immediately upon seeing what I was up against

haha life's full of surprises!

Hey man yeah I am planning on doing some stuff with the Elves, I've got a couple of ideas going right now, just figuring out how I wanna go about doing things. I'll look into those groups thanks, feel like those would be good for some dedicated skirmish/hit and run style vids cheers!

Partly was because I was trying to micro stuff back and forth all over and didn't properly see the handgunners, also partly I was trying to thin numbers quickly. Mainly too I wasn't thinking straight haha concentrating on the ranged would have been better, even charging into the snipers with my Outriders would have been better rather then disengaging but still being shot. That's why we learn though!

I would hope that people wouldn't try to replicate this exactly as guerilla tactics are dependent on ever evolving battlefield conditions. I see this as more presenting ideas and principles for people to think on and have in mind during their battles.

I agree, in general this serves as a bad example of multiplayer tactics. The "noob box" is so often mocked for this reason. Some pro players have shown that if your opponent makes poor ranged targeting selection, you can win without moving a single unit

@@lucajustluca8257 👀 stop stalking me.

Lmao the crows fed well this day

@@MalleusGaming57 my channel does Absolver videos 😭😭😭😭 bro was a fan of mine noooo

Lmao oopsies

Yeah it can be tricky to do all the time, I have had success though with splitting the enemy units up and isolating them through skirmishing and harassment

Haha I’m gonna need more Tomahawks for my soldiers! Cheers bro!

Oh man if the Monkey King ever comes out, everything's gonna change!

@@MalleusGaming57 True hahaha. 🤣

Yo that’s awesome! I’ll have to do some research on the Picts for sure, I’m sure there’s a lot they can still teach us. Cheers bro!

No unfortunately I only speak English and a tiny tiny amount of Spanish (like hardly any at all really)

Yeah it definitely could, I dunno I feel like I sometimes forget that the Steam Tank is still a beast in close combat, it's like in my mind it gets put in the "Ranged Unit" category and can't get out haha

@@MalleusGaming57 I feel you. It wasn’t until the landship got indroduced that it even occurred to me to use tanks in melee.

A Belegar Ranger army is something I wanna play around with, people certainly don't expect it from Dwarfs but you can get some really good deployment options with them. Gotta hit your target hard though, crossbows are still more than decent and probably some throwing axes for close up

@@MalleusGaming57 I am playing a super long campaign with a friend he is Karl Franz and I am Thorgrim. I plan to cross off every grudge. We also are playing with a mod that changes victory conditions and rewards to be a little bit more interesting and are doing all of them. So far I have only Reclaimed the Realms. I have all 6 LLs spread around the map sadly Grombrindal was defeated before I could recruit him so will take him awhile to get revenge on the elves. Belegar just took the Oak of Ages and is fighting the Wood Elves still. Ungrim is fighting the Vampires to the east of Karak Kadrin. Thorgrim after finally finishing off Queek at like turn 60 is fighting Grimgor and Imrik to the east. Thorek is trying to not die to Kroq Gar. And Malakai is just kind of chilling as I got him last and the AI did not level up his ship at all. I feel like I am forgetting someone but I think that is everyone. Belegar and Ungrim have weird armies but Grombrindal and Thorgrim are mainly using Irondrakes, Organ Guns, Thunderers, and Iron Breakers. Thorgrim has 2 Hammerers as well. Belegar is him and his ghosts, 10 Bugman Rangers, then 5 Gyrocopters of different types. Ungrim is all different Slayers and a couple Grudge Settler Trollhammer Gyrocopters. The Ranger army has been amazing again Wood Elves and same with the Slayer army against the Vampires. I think my standard Dwarf army would not do nearly as well against the Wood Elves. It is about turn 70 and the Greenskin and Chaos Dwarf end game scenarios are coming at 100.

That’d be really cool to do yeah I’d definitely be down for that! Thanks for kind words Anthro I appreciate it as always!

Omg yeah that hill changed everything, his Helstorms would have absolutely wrecked me. I wasn't even planning on doing guerilla style tactics for this but when I saw his set up and the hill I knew what had to be done haha

Cheers bro, yeah Spanish descent but I don’t speak it, though I’m proud of my heritage for sure, I’ll remember to put the emphasis on the end there haha

Lmao whenever the Monkey King shows up ohhh things are gonna change! Cheers bud!
