The commanders sound a lot more skilled than in other videos. Most of the times generals try to find a good position and send their troops into the fray, but here the Romans understand each other's plan when they spot troops moving, make maneuvers and counter-strikes, keep their cool and engage or withdraw as necessary. That makes the video really interesting to watch!

[@acrylic1176]

@Urarettin -D- Lexxar ancient warfare js mor eof numbers imo. If they said an army is comprised of large numbers it doesnt mean all of those are professional soldiery. Most of the time at least 70 percent of the armies are comprised of hastily levied unexperienced soldiers which is known as fodders with that in mind its safe to speculate for me at least that most casualties are the levied ones rather than the professionals since they can get a grasp and retreat unlike the fodder of the army. And also I think most casualties occurs when units start to break and rout imo.

[@bryangan2224]

@Urarettin -D- Lexxar There are definite exaggerations in all these accounts, hence the references to modern estimates instead of believing the victors verbatim. However, most of these battles are logically one sided because a constant series of even battles would make long term campaigning nearly impossible - see Pyrrhus and his failure to make significant headway in Italy despite constantly beating the Romans. And as another commenter mentioned, most of these casualties actually occur during the rout, when the killing is basically 100% one-sided.

[@ewen666]

@Some thing although you make some strong points, there’s a lot of evidence that the actual clash of battle lines didn’t result in many casualties. It was when one side broke and ran that the slaughter began- which makes sense to me. I can’t imagine trying too hard to kill someone when his friends are standing around him, but once they’re split up, throwing away their shields and weapons... I imagine that’s when people were killed.

Because of guys like Pompey, Caesar had to become very good at learning things the hard way. Great episode K&G guys! Can't wait for the next one!

[@JohnnyMaczeta]

Nope, Caesar was much better general than Pompey.

[@barbiquearea]

​@@JohnnyMaczeta Caesar was an excellent combatant, a great strategist, and a clever campaigner who was beloved by his men, some of whom were his close friends. Pompey himself was a good soldier and great strategist, although his tactical abilities were something to be desired, he did have decades of experience in war and was known to be a very careful and meticulous planner. Unfortunately for Pompey, Caesar was a born conqueror.

[@jonbaxter2254]

Always breaks my heart hearing about Caesar. Loved by the people and his army, strategically brilliant at every turn and pushed modern ideas to make Rome amazing. And then after all his threats had been dealt with... he dies. Still, he led the way for Octavian.

[@varana]

On the other hand, he was a brutal conqueror depopulating Gaul, killing and enslaving millions, ruining the country for decades and wiping a highly developed culture almost out of human memory. Because of hurt feelz, he started a civil war that cost thousands of Roman lives, and some of the best of their soldiers and leaders. He could conquer Rome but he failed as a ruler. He left the Republic destroyed but with nothing to replace it, causing another civil war lasting for more than a decade.

[@otgunz]

Yeah just like Hitler he was. Hitler came to power legally. With the support of the German nation he turned himself to a dictator while killing and jailing his enemies and the defenders of the republic. Only difference is that Hitler was more succesful at killing his enemies and more lucky to survive assassinations which gave him a chance to make a world war and gained 12 years after he turned himself into a dictator. Also he had a stupid mustache which Caesar did not have.

[@randomuser6175]

@@varana Killing, taking slaves was a way of life back then. Gallic tribes was the boogeyman for Romans before Caesar. They fought Romans and sacked Rome, killed thousands and looted the city simply because they could. So when Caesar got the upper hand he said it's my turn. Judging historical figures with today's ethics and morals is wrong. Because if you do that conclusion would be: They are all genocidal maniacs. And he didn't fail as a leader or he didn't "leave" the republic destroyed. He got killed. But a forward-looking guy he was, he named Octavian as his heir way before he died. And Octavian started Rome's golden age, Pax Romana. Caesar has a different place in history because even tho he was a ruthless, power hungry narcissist he did great things for his people. He worked for their well being not just filling his own coffers. That's why they worshipped him. I dare you to show me another leader in ancient world who loved by their people as much as Caesar did.

Marcus Antonius was simplified in most primary sources to “Antony”, so it’s always confused me when people say Anthony, like the American singer haha.

Hi.....i enjoy your videos so much and love to see the history...so i have a request....please make a list of events in a timeline manner so it's become easy for us to see the documentries

[@alejandrop.s.3942]

Pompey was an overrated comander in my opinion. He only dared to fight against his opponents when the numbers of his army were way superior. He had the title of Conqueror of the East which Lucullus really deserved. Moreover, Pompey was totally defeated by a true military talent as Sertorius was.

[@ladrianyu2637]

At least he smart enough to use the numerical superiority?

[@zulfiqarahmad588]

@Klaidi Rubiku Salahuddin fooled a king by encountering him in a place where his whole army was dying from thrist.

Last time I was this early the Romans deposed the Etruscan monarchy

I see you took the recommendation of using the mod DEI to heart. Thank you. Far more authentic now. Gj !

[@FukitSurfer101]

I love the Total War music during the battle scenes.. so fitting for a video about a Roman civil war

[@rakin_8978]

"Call of War" is one of the worst game i had ever played

[@yougetonthathorseyougottar6126]

Even the name itself is just cringe

[@Danneman92]

Oh, it is? I thought it looked great. I love the genre. Oh well, ;(

They’re just trying to fund their channel man

[@darrenbutler9819]

Sounds like someone who sucks at the game, you need strategy, ruthlessness and an ability to make choices when it comes to allies

[@RobertMehling]

This seems way too relevant as someone who lives in the US right now

[@wackiechan300]

Two parties that are firmly entrenched and refuse to do anything to help the people but just fight among themselves for more power and money making the founding fathers roll in their graves? Nah.. you're obviously just tripping

[@canchero724]

Except instead of great titans like Caesar and Pompey there are people who one would barely call leaders running things in the US.

[@greatwolf5372]

We still haven't found our Sulla and Marius, much less Caesar or Pompey.

[@ghostwriterj9421]

The music in this video is the best I've heard!

[@aodac269]

The best Chanel I've discovered in years.
