I was a little bored and wanted to record a RS battle. I havant done this in a while so the battle is somewhat boring. But I put in a narration for the hell of it. The quality of the video is descent I don't know why it dropped in quality when I uploaded it to youtbe. BE SURE TO fullscreen it

I'll be making more of these by the way....

Nice vid but a bit of a challenge would be nice though. The unit balance at the beginning of the fight is already completely unbalanced and will be a piece of cake for the Romans. That said, the Romans in 1.6 are overpowered and their legions in custom battle are very cheap (much cheaper than in the campaign) and therefore battles in custom games are imbalanced (especially if someone plays as Romans online). The legions itself are also overpowered, especially their missiles. And Gaul light cavalry are useless.. almost as useless as peasants and especially charging an infantry line at the front. Also there are hardly any tactics being used (not that they are needed in this fight) Anyway, sorry about my ranting, but it's just to give you some tips.

No no its perfectly fine. I was just bored and made a simple battle in which I KNOW I will win. The next video will be more of a challenge

One and a half units of spartans against 3 full stacks of parthians should be challenging enough i think.

Actually I have something similiar. I was planning to do another funny one with just one roman legion Vs. like 3 or 4 full stacks of gauls or germans....What do you think?

Do it! You should have more like 6 or 7 enemy stacks though and see how long you can last, i think 3-4 stacks is do-able depending on troop compositions of the respective armies.

Okay im putting this out there, im willing to rep anybody that can give me some good screens of a 14,000 vs 14,000 battle, how do you do this you might ask? well first the rules, it needs to be fully multiplayer, what needs to be done is that each team of 4 is gonna choose there basic type of units.
for example i want to fight as macedon with my other three team mates so were gonna decide whos gonna have infantry, archers and cavalry; so say a friend and i choose infantry, i will choose a full stack of pikemen, both elite and normal and my friend will choose a regular hoplites and levvy pikeman only stack, the other 2 will each accordingly have a full archer and peltast stack and a horsemen stack, and that will compose an army, then when you start the battle you first take your time too fix each army (the 2 teams of 4) into a realistic formation, once done you procede to take screenshots and try and keep a chain of command as you battle like a team.
I would do this myself and invite you guys but my ram is not enough to deal with so much and i dont have rs 1.6 anymore but i will give anyone that shows me some screenies of that some rep and EARLY ACCESS TO RS2!!

ok no not really but i will be very thankful and give rep.
