  1. 1:46Spanish, Ottoman and Hungarian attackers face Danish, Bohemian and Polish-Lithuanian defenders.
  2. 3:20Gunpowder artillery opens breaches in the fortress walls before Ottoman cavalry advance.
  3. 4:13Defending spearmen use the slope of wall rubble as protection against incoming arrows.
  4. 9:07Danish cavalry ride out to attack the Ottoman artillery crews.
  5. 9:37Apollo examines the armed Spanish and Ottoman ships offshore.
  6. 18:31The ships launch mortar bombardments into the city's clustered defenders.

The fortress walls are already taking a pounding when Pixelated Apollo spots another reason to admire the mod: proper warships offshore. By the time their mortars start firing into the city, this siege has acquired a whole extra direction to worry about.

"A Late Medieval Siege With Naval Bombardment - 3v3 Siege - 1212ad Multiplayer" drew about 53,000 views, the largest audience among his three new uploads. This is a Total War battle replay using the 1212 AD mod and additional submods, with Spanish, Ottoman and Hungarian attackers facing Danish, Bohemian and Polish-Lithuanian defenders.

There is plenty to study before the naval bombardment arrives. Defending spearmen shelter on the slope of shattered wall rubble, while Danish cavalry ride out to attack Ottoman artillery. Apollo also finds time for a detour into medieval and modern art. Viewers pick up both threads: some discuss the art digression, others welcome the return of consecutive siege commentaries and the ships' contribution to the action.

The other uploads were "An Explosive Medieval Siege Of Prague - 3v3 | 1212 AD 16th Century" and "Fight HUGE Battles With Rouge-like Mechanics - Tabletop Tavern (The Rift of Magic)". The naval siege remains his busiest video right now, with Tabletop Tavern drawing views faster than the Prague upload.

Across the channel, the week brought roughly 404,000 views, while subscribers held at a million. Daily viewing is currently less than half its usual level. Nearby strategy and simulation channels PhlyDaily and iSorrowproductions are having livelier-than-usual viewing days; Apollo's week belongs more to the pleasures of watching a mod change the battlefield. Here, the infantry have ships to contend with as well as the army outside the walls.
