Siege
A siege is a military blockade of a city or fortress with the intent of conquering by attrition or assault. The term derives from sedere, Latin for "to sit". Siege warfare is a form of constant, low-intensity conflict characterized by one party holding a strong, static defensive position. Consequently, an opportunity for negotiation between combatants is not uncommon, as proximity and fluctuating advantage can encourage diplomacy.
A siege occurs when an attacker encounters a city or fortress that cannot be easily taken by a coup de main and refuses to surrender. Sieges involve surrounding the target and blocking the reinforcement or escape of troops or provision of supplies (a tactic known as "investment"), typically coupled with attempts to reduce the fortifications by means of siege engines, artillery bombardment, mining (also known as sapping), or the use of deception or treachery to bypass defences. Failing a military outcome, sieges can often be decided by starvation, thirst, or disease, which can afflict either the attacker or defender. This form of siege, though, can take many months or even years, depending upon the size of the stores of food the fortified position holds. During the process of circumvallation, the attacking force can be set upon by another force of enemies due to the lengthy amount of time required to starve a position. A defensive ring of forts outside the ring of circumvallated forts, called contravallation, is also sometimes used to defend the attackers from outside enemy forces.

Siege of Constantinople | Ottoman Empire vs Romans - Epic Cinematic Total War Battle
Mehmet II, 21 years old assaulted the city of Constantinople in a battle of the ages between the now established Ottoman Empire and the old Byzantine Emperor to hold the famous city of Constantinople. Mehmet II wanted to prove his skeptics (both enemies and allies) wrong by capturing Constantinople from the Romans, something which has not been achieved before. The reason for that was the obstacle which was the Theodosian Walls. A Hungarian named Orban went to the Byzantine Emperor and proposed to work for him on a project to construct the biggest cannon ever made, but he was rejected by the Romans due to a lack of funds at that time. Orban then turned to the Ottomans, which after many successful campaigns, were able to afford to hire him. And so, the Turkish engineers started working on th...

How Did Byzantine Fire Ships Work? #Shorts #History #Units
Did you know how Byzantine Fire Ships worked and became the super weapons of their age? The Fire Ships of the Byzantine Empire were created shortly after the discovery of Greek Fire in the 7th century AD. Engineers quickly began experimenting with incendiaries and methods of delivery, ultimately creating the famed Siphons which could be mounted on Byzantine Dromons. These fire ships would defeat the Arab and Kievan Rus invasions which sought to siege Constantinople on multiple occasions.

Mehmet II, 21 years old assaulted the city of Constantinople in a battle of the ages between the now established Ottoman Empire and the old Byzantine Emperor to hold the famous city of Constantinople. Mehmet II wanted to prove his skeptics (both enemies and allies) wrong by capturing Constantinople from the Romans, something which has not been achieved before. The reason for that was the obstacle which was the Theodosian Walls. A Hungarian named Orban went to the Byzantine Emperor and proposed to work for him on a project to construct the biggest cannon ever made, but he was rejected by the Romans due to a lack of funds at that time. Orban then turned to the Ottomans, which after many successful campaigns, were able to afford to hire him. And so, the Turkish engineers started working on the cannon famously called Basilica. Mehmet II outnumbered the Byzantine Romans by many times, but Emperor Constantine XI was not worried and had full confidence in the strength of Constantinople's walls. The Byzantine Roman army was much smaller but was supported by stationed troops from Venice and Genoa.
Many Ottoman ships were also involved in this battle. However, they are not shown here since they are not supported in the mod.
This is meant to show the battle of Constantinople of 1453 but may not be fully historically accurate.
This cinematic battle was created using Attila Total War with the 1212 AD mod.

Did you know how Byzantine Fire Ships worked and became the super weapons of their age?
The Fire Ships of the Byzantine Empire were created shortly after the discovery of Greek Fire in the 7th century AD. Engineers quickly began experimenting with incendiaries and methods of delivery, ultimately creating the famed Siphons which could be mounted on Byzantine Dromons. These fire ships would defeat the Arab and Kievan Rus invasions which sought to siege Constantinople on multiple occasions.

The forces of the Rashidun Caliphate achieved a decisive victory against the Byzantines at Yarmouk in 636. This allowed the Muslims to take over Syria and Egypt. But the Eastern Roman Empire was still strong and continued its resistance. The next 80 years Byzantines fought against the onslaught and the Arab-Byzantine wars reached their peak during the Siege of Constantinople in 717-718 where emperor Leo assisted by the Bulgars of Khan Tervel faced the overwhelming odds against the Umayyad forces. This battle is often overlooked in comparison to the battle of Tours that happened in France, but it was bigger and scale and had an even bigger impact on the fate of Europe.

Mehmet II, 21 years old assaulted the city of Constantinople in a battle of the ages between the now established Ottoman Empire and the old Byzantine Emperor to hold the famous city of Constantinople. Mehmet II wanted to prove his skeptics (both enemies and allies) wrong by capturing Constantinople from the Romans, something which has not been achieved before. The reason for that was the obstacle which was the Theodosian Walls. A Hungarian named Orban went to the Byzantine Emperor and proposed to work for him on a project to construct the biggest cannon ever made, but he was rejected by the Romans due to a lack of funds at that time. Orban then turned to the Ottomans, which after many successful campaigns, were able to afford to hire him. And so, the Turkish engineers started working on the cannon famously called Basilica. Mehmet II outnumbered the Byzantine Romans by many times, but Emperor Constantine XI was not worried and had full confidence in the strength of Constantinople's walls. The Byzantine Roman army was much smaller but was supported by stationed troops from Venice and Genoa.
Many Ottoman ships were also involved in this battle. However, they are not shown here since they are not supported in the mod.
This is meant to show the battle of Constantinople of 1453 but may not be fully historically accurate.
This cinematic battle was created using Attila Total War with the 1212 AD mod.

Did you know how Byzantine Fire Ships worked and became the super weapons of their age?
The Fire Ships of the Byzantine Empire were created shortly after the discovery of Greek Fire in the 7th century AD. Engineers quickly began experimenting with incendiaries and methods of delivery, ultimately creating the famed Siphons which could be mounted on Byzantine Dromons. These fire ships would defeat the Arab and Kievan Rus invasions which sought to siege Constantinople on multiple occasions.

Siege
A siege is a military blockade of a city or fortress with the intent of conquering by attrition or assault. The term derives from sedere, Latin for "to sit". Siege warfare is a form of constant, low-intensity conflict characterized by one party holding a strong, static defensive position. Consequently, an opportunity for negotiation between combatants is not uncommon, as proximity and fluctuating advantage can encourage diplomacy.
A siege occurs when an attacker encounters a city or fortress that cannot be easily taken by a coup de main and refuses to surrender. Sieges involve surrounding the target and blocking the reinforcement or escape of troops or provision of supplies (a tactic known as "investment"), typically coupled with attempts to reduce the fortifications by means of siege engines, artillery bombardment, mining (also known as sapping), or the use of deception or treachery to bypass defences. Failing a military outcome, sieges can often be decided by starvation, thirst, or disease, which can afflict either the attacker or defender. This form of siege, though, can take many months or even years, depending upon the size of the stores of food the fortified position holds. During the process of circumvallation, the attacking force can be set upon by another force of enemies due to the lengthy amount of time required to starve a position. A defensive ring of forts outside the ring of circumvallated forts, called contravallation, is also sometimes used to defend the attackers from outside enemy forces.
