Transcript
00:04Welcome back, everyone, to the fourth episode
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined3
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedaround Tsukushi. As we saw in the last episode,
00:33we are finally starting to outnumber them.
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined8
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwe've got the overwhelming advantage by the bar.
01:02Just moving and checking our priest, I was
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined12
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedus to attack, putting them in a bad position.
01:37I was just going over the
01:40various different things, checking out the
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined17
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedother modifications that will improve the economy.
02:03It's going into the intern now, and once we
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined21
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfirearms. As you can see here, I've just gotten to
02:31the battle. I did do the battle manually myself.
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined25
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedyou can see, I'm just saving. I haven't had
02:58any freezing problems since the last episode,
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined29
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedbattle where we kept up on the mountain.
03:22So, you should probably be a bit familiar with
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined33
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI've got the matchlock infantry in the front,
03:56with archers behind them so they can fire
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined37
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI mean, matchlock infantry are quite good, but
04:30they're obviously not very good in melee. Now you
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined42
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand they'll be put into the line in a minute.
04:55I'll probably have to skip parts of the battle
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined46
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedin the north, but because I went after this army,
05:23that one unit in the south ended up being all
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined50
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedThey got wiped out pretty much straight away,
06:02but I think I did go and check on it at
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined55
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedpresent. But as I was saying, the enemy army AI
06:31went a bit weird. It seemed to think the mountain
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined59
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineddidn't go very well for the enemy.
07:00There's the second unit that's just engaged. Like
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined63
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI've managed to get us to a point in the battle
07:30where things haven't quite started yet but are
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined67
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe hill to their right. It's especially weird
07:55considering they've got archers who probably
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined71
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedpiecemeal, which is just going to result in them
08:23all being wiped out ridiculously quickly. Though,
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined75
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedagainst the Shogun. I'm going to want to deal with
08:48them at some point anyway, so it would have been
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined79
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedsee here, so I'm just reorganizing them to
09:12get a better field of fire on them.
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined84
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedonly the first three ranks could fire, so I'm
09:54trying to keep it down to about three, maybe four
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined88
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedquickly make my matchlock infantry
10:26pay quite dearly in melee. I want to keep my
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined92
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe melee troops a bit further spread out.
10:56The enemy is getting quite close now. Just
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined96
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwaiting. Just gotta wait now. Waiting game.
11:25They're just entering range now,
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined100
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedhelp keep the enemy, well, not suppressed,
11:57but losing forces as they get nearer. Get
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined104
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI couldn't remember if I'd turned it on or not.
12:28I've got these ones moving around to sort of shoot
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined108
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe Sagara seem to have dealt with the enemy quite
12:55quickly. I can only see one unit on there. I think
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined112
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedhope they can deal with them quickly.
13:25Like I said earlier, I was hoping the Sagara would
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined116
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedIt's just the AI acting a bit weird.
13:54Alright, time to send my general in to
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined120
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedcase something bad happens. I want to be
14:20able to deal with it quickly and have my
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined124
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedmatchlock infantry firing in the distance,
14:46and there we go. Seem to have dealt with them
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined128
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedcan live to fight another day. I mean,
15:12we held the battlefield and kept the siege, but
15:15it really wasn't worth it when I lost something
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined133
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedend the battle because, well, I've only got one
15:35general to chase down the enemy, and two, because
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined137
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedJust checking who got the most kills but I
16:03think that counts from the Sagara army and
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined141
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedlost the most is the Sagara army unit
16:29that entered the battlefield in the
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined145
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedDecided to peacefully occupy the settlement.
17:01Where was this? Oh, it ended up attacking one of
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined149
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedbonuses for conversion and a new mission: build
17:39the Nanban Quarter, which will give us Portuguese
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined153
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwere destroyed, can't remember where they were.
18:06Yeah, I'm just moving my armies about
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined157
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI wouldn't have been able to take advantage of
18:28the situation. So just gonna focus on the Shony's
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined161
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedend the episode after that. But yeah, I
18:54think I did do a naval battle. It wasn't all that
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined165
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedin circles, but I'll show the battle anyway.
19:19So we had the deployment but
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined169
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwill try and talk a little less for the video.
19:52As we can see, there's just
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined173
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedranged, and the trade ship is good for boarding.
20:34Just going to speed it up a little bit while
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined177
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedoars for moving quite quickly in this sort of sea
21:00because, well, it's good for short bursts
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined181
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof a runaround trying to capture the enemy ship.
21:51Almost getting slightly frustrated at this point
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined185
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedgoing to complain about it. Just seemed a bit of
22:17an odd thing. Although enemy bowmen were doing
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined189
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedkobaya was just unsuited for boarding action
22:47because it hasn't got many troops. So we end up
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined193
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedages. I'll speed it up now just so you don't
23:14have to go through the boredom of watching
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined197
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedrange, like the furthest it could get while still
24:00being able to fire, which didn't really make a lot
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined201
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI haven't got the biggest screen and the
24:23actual gameplay was about a week ago. I haven't
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined205
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedquite a few casualties to them at this point
24:53because the trade ship has some
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined209
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwe've got another chase going on. This one wasn't
25:14as long but still took about a minute or two to
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined213
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto ram me but as you can see, they just sort of
25:49sailed past. I think they slowed down a little
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined217
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedWe've caused quite a few casualties among them.
26:20I can't read it properly but I think it's 34 or
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined221
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedenemy is starting to run away at this point.
26:52The trade ship is getting nearer. Hopefully
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined225
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto remember what happened at this point.
27:49I think we're quite near the end of the battle.
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined229
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedThey're down to single digits
28:27in terms of crew now. My trade ship is getting
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined233
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedit because I could not be bothered to carry
28:50on another long-winded chase. The enemy lost
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined237
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedout I just left my ships outside the port.
29:17No, not right outside the port but basically in
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined241
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof trouble trying to select the proper
29:43place for a few seconds, but just
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined245
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwant to be able to move our troops around quickly,
30:14and it helps to improve region wealth which will
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined249
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedup going for. I'm still gonna go for the library
30:41I think in the next episode. That has better
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined253
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI don't want the video to drag out for too long.
31:10I'm sorry I had to do it in this sort of fashion.
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
undefined:undefined257
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedsort of mistakes next time. So thank you
31:33for watching. Leave feedback, leave a
undefined:undefined00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,920
