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 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.
