21:50 When you're so successful that your biggest problem is figuring out how you're going to haul all your treasure back home
Give us some civil wars,not American, battles.
It's always the commanders that pull some big brain, sneaky bullshit that wins the day.
The narrator is outstanding!
Galerius being a bear in Dovahhatty video makes all the sense now
I got a better attack for that battle…. a small contingent of archers to the east with fire arrows for the prime distraction, but only 2 or 3 volleys. More archers to the north or south throwing volleys of night arrows in between the volleys of fire arrows. So just after a volley of fire arrows ends and the defenders recover, here comes a larger volley of night arrows that they can't see. This would minimize the defenders' ability to guard the SW corner of the camp and prevent them from repelling the breach until it was too late.
Roman congress, shit. Roman war leaders, inspiring.
Great work. The Battle of Edessa should be known as well.
Gotta be depressing when 1day later KingsandGenerals puts out an amazing 2hr video that's way better than anything else😆 K&G#1
What a great start of a video..🔥
The narrator sounds like the narrator from Witcher 3. Great video too!
