Malazan | Battle of Gelor Ridge

Ойын-сауық

Come review the battle at Gelor Ridge with me! Yes, this is the one with a cavalry charge up hill which is always exciting. Coltaine takes the fight to Kamist Reloe after crossing the River P'atha, only trouble is a large trap set by Kamist. This is the third battle during the Chain of Dogs, but only the second one we have looked at. Feel free to skip to the battle if you don't want to waste any time! Some parts get a little blocky, I think I figured out how to fix that next time.

    Good examples. I believe Ceasar also had various battles where he was severely outnumbered. Besides, the malazans have sappers... When both sites have guns though the numbers come together as less skill is required for one person to kill the other. Only since the second world war there has been a modest shift based on speed, intel and weaponry (and probably also tactics). Well, at least that's how I see it.

    Amazing video. Love the detail. I read the Sekala Crossing battle and then watched your video. Made so much sense after that. It's the same for this video as well. Koodos. Appreciate the hardwork. Sorry to be nitpicky, but I think you missed the Hissari Loyals and the Seventh's Cavalry forming the tail of Coltaine's spear. Although, they weren't mentioned much in Duiker's description of the battle, but Captain Lull had mentioned them in his troop placement overview to Duiker.

I thought the description you mentioned is from the Chain traveling between Sekala and Gelor (Just an earlier chapter) and thought the battle lineup was different. Completely neglected to mention them! Thanks for pointing it out :)

    Great video! I was sad that I missed it three weeks ago so I made sure to subscribe and smack the bell this time lol. At the end of the video u asked for some feedback so here is mine: 1. Loved the comparisons to real battles at the end, that honestly was one of the most interesting parts of the video 2. The animation was even better this time than the last video, great job with all of the troop movements all lining up perfectly. 3. Only suggestion I guess I have is I was wondering if you could discuss some of the main players in each side before the battle, just to remind older book readers who haven’t read it in a while, ex: Kamist Reloe was a mage…etc., and opposing him is (list generals on Malazan/wickans side) Overall loved it! Keep it up man, and merry Christmas if u celebrate!
