I'm glad your videos are going to help more people learn that Perseus was a capable king and general in his own right. Unfortunately, that makes his decisions in the future (or should I say past?) Battle of Pydna all the more perplexing, especially since he employed Hammer & Anvil tactics so successfully in this battle.

@RexGalilae

4 жыл бұрын

To be fair. Looking at the duration and scale of casualties on both sides, this was more a skirmish than a true battle. He didn't employ hammer and anvil tactics here, at least not intentionally. His cavalry and skirmishers outclassed the Romans heavily and they routed, allowing their compatriots to be outflanked. It was a natural consequence of that.

@SeleucusNicator

4 жыл бұрын

@@RexGalilae I agree about this being more of a skirmish than a proper battle, but him not using hammer and anvil tactics intentionally? He personally led the charge into the rear of the Roman center and broke it. We can't get into Perseus' mind to find out what his exact battle plan was, but I'd still classify him personally routing the left wing of the Roman force and following it up with a charge into the rear of their center as an intentional maneuver.

@RexGalilae

4 жыл бұрын

@@SeleucusNicator I may have used the wrong word. Hammer and anvil is a *proactive* approach to a battle where troops are split into two different roles - holding and assaulting. In this case, what he did (even the Thracian king did the same) was a single head on charge to break the enemy and when gaps developed, surrounded the pockets of any remaining resistance. Reactive being the key word I didn't use. It's pretty routine work for any cavalry commander overseeing an enemy's rout to be frank

@praiza1481

4 жыл бұрын

There's definitely something wrong with our records of Pydna in my opinion. The infantry charging forward into uneven terrain, Perseus fleeing the battlefield without even coming close to the enemy and being branded a coward, and finally him fleeing Macedon outright instead of holding up in Pella? Pretty sure there must have been some treachery at work.

@swaminathanbalakrishnan5182

Actually they aren't that perplexing. He was winning, and had to charge, but his junior commanders and soldiers were probably too excited and lost order. The part about him fleeing without action is probably a reel by Plutarch, and his Agema were also likely engaged - not as Plutarch claims.

I have been watching this channel since I think around 100k subscribers. It is one of the few channels I have stuck with. This is one of the best pieces of entertainment I have seen in a long time. You're docs seem to tell an unbiased story, is interesting, and LOVE the Bond super villain narrator. Thank you for what you do. Please keep it up.

That ending music, the Greek main theme in the original Rome Total War (2004)... good old times - and really well fitting.

This is hands down my favorite channel for historical war documentaries! Kings & Generals is the best!

Yes, please release it soon. This event is really interesting and historically crucial!!! Btw, loved the new format at 10:05 for showing what commander was where and with what troops. 👍

Great episode 🎆

Some sources say about some thracian footmen fighting with "beak-shaped"curved-swords they had been using with great effectiveness against armor and shields alike. Not the famous dacian falx but the more earlier version similar to half boomerang type, very rare. Thanks for the video!

I love the fact that you 've put the map of whole Europe, and how it looked at that particular time. It huge factor in order for people to understand the balance of geopolitical power between nations.

great video once again!thank u so much!if its possible i'd like to make more videos about ancient battles between 500bC and 1bC.for exable the Peloponnesian war (431-404 bC).keep going the hard work and never stop doing this!

Rome had so many resources backing them at this point, it is hard to imagine Macedon, in their condition, defying them. Makedon's army, at this time in history was effective and efficient in it's own right, but had put too much emphasis on the sarrisa phalanx winning the day and too little on their cavalry wings. It was a military cost issue and an understandable one considering the region had been at odds with it's neighbors for over a century and a half at this point.

Awesome video. I'm so glad you're following the new researches on Philip and Perseus which tend to reinstate them in the eyes of History. Careful though when you're talking about the Agema, they were not a cavalry force. They were a select 2 000 corps of infantry among a 5 000 elite corps, the Peltasts (which had nothing to do with the light infantry of the Greeks). They fought with the cavalry led by Perseus himself though. Recent researches show that in the second century BCE it was common to associate horsemen with footmen which would cover the retreat of the horsemen once they would have came close to the enemy and discharged their missiles.

LOVE THIS CHANNEL👍😎

waaaa the Imperator Rome soundtrack is lovely

4:20 love the reference.

4:18 - "Well Then, Execute Order 66" Does that mean that Emperor Palpatine was inspired by Philip V? XD Hmm .. that figures for some odd reason.

Thank you

I really like the new order of battle presentation which highlights units' position on the battlefield at the bottom of the screen while showing what they looked like. Unfortunately there are once again major differences between the narration and subtitles. It appears that the subtitles are an earlier version of the script that was eventually used for the narration. For me it really helps understanding the story when they are synched, but in this video I had to turn them off because it was very confusing.

History without feelings... the best type of history !
