How OP was Greek Fire?

Greek fire is notorious for being an OP technology, but just how meta-defining was it? Find out in the pilot episode of TechTree!

The beginning of something new... I always wanted a history version of TierZoo, this channel's gonna send me INSANE. THANK YOU!

[@WitchyKitchen]

History should only be explained like this from now on

[@NotJustBikes]

Well it looks like my son has a new favourite channel. 😉 Nicely done!

Good for you and your son

[@togeluga_the_cat]

tier zoo but for human history *LETS GOOOOOOO*

[@darklex5150]

This is like tierzoo, but specifically for human players only. Can't wait to see more videos in the future!

[@kylegordon1520]

Nice! I got some recommendations for this series immediately: Spanish Tercios (One of the first effective uses of gunpowder small arms in Europe) and Swedish Carolingians (Basically the first use of combined arms).

[@PotatoMcWhiskey]

Proud to be one of the first subs of what will be a great channel!

[@alexgriffith1001]

Oh wow tier zoo has a new channel dedicated to human gameplay! Makes sense I guess

[@IzzySealey]

This is incredible! Never had so much fun learning about history, am so so excited to see what you make next 🔥

[@connielacey4881]

Really great new channel. Love the graphics/animation

[@dbseamz]

TIL that "Greek fire" and "napalm" are the same substance. And also that it was probably the inspiration for the stuff known as "blazebalm", "liquid fire", or "battlefire" in various books by one of my favorite fantasy authors.

[@whiteeye3453]

Or something else

[@BioBush]

A wonderful start! Looking forward to learning more about history from you!

[@oshiboir5121]

underrated, tierzoo but with greek

What a pleasant surprise for this channel to pop up in my recommended. I can’t wait to see more.

I love being at the start of a great channel.

[@PatKellyTeaches]

Stoked to say I was here under 100 subs! Great work on this new project!

I genuinely hope this KZbin channel blows up, its such a cool and entertaining idea

[@blakejames-white3263]

[@ReneRitchie]

Love this so much!

I've been hoping for a channel like this, using your format to examine tech trees.

Oh god TierZoo went history mode

[@weimaranerstudio7974]

I’m already loving this new channel.

[@GAarcher]

Tierzoo but with history, it was all I needed

[@anthonythetophatter2834]

I straight up LOVE the Civ 6 style, truly outstanding

[@djndjn]

Fun way to learn history.

[@HolyNorthAmericanEmpire]

Dude, how have you not advertised this channel on TierZoo yet?

[@NoahBragg]

Wow, this is amazing! I like how you used Civ Tech Trees and Civ city labels. How long did this take to make?!

[@Miaoulyn]

That's great, thanks you. I hope you'll keep doing

[@lmawmaw]

an informative channel that teaches history using gaming terms I"M IN!!!

[@casjordan5756]

This was excellent, very educational too

Banging video, love the drawing animation style

[@edmind47]

This is amazing!

[@Leonismychild]

Oh this, this is brilliant.

[@charlottewalnut3118]

The Byzantines actually had better infantry on par. However, the Arabs were more naturally belt for deserts and used horses more suited towards them. It’s more of a thing versus specialization versus non-specialized infantry.

[@pferreira-adem6607]

This video is so good it's better than oversimplified

[@kingx3362]

Can’t wait for the next video

[@vanishingfolklore]

Excellent vid

[@Alexander-cj5yb]

This channel is going to explode

[@blakejames-white3263]

it already has this is his second channel his other one has more than 3 million

[@TheTekloFoundry]

well done!

[@urielignacioroman3724]

Nice video man :D

[@hotlinekrapfen]

this stuff is actually so helpful for my TTRPG game, so thanks a lot. As an ignorant I would've love if you talked about the countermeasures like armor and coatings used against greek fire, but I guess the video was just on point like this

[@dbseamz]

I do remember reading about the Greeks making clothing from a white substance they called "salamander fur" because it was completely fireproof despite being fibrous. The source I had read made it sound like the stuff was fairly rare and expensive at the time, which was probably a good thing because it was actually Asbestos and can shred people's lungs from the inside out. Not sure if that's what the various empires in this video tried using, but it seems likely.

[@Dpedersen35]

Here as Subscriber 524, can't wait to see this channel explode

[@Toadkillah]

I spent the first 90 sec rattling my brain to figure out why the voice felt familiar.

Why is this really good

[@Wesleybaker2012]

OP, I really dig your videos and am looking forward to the series. I do hope you follow the advice of some people here and start plugging this channel on tier zoo so that more people can find it. If you had a "super thanks" thing on your videos, I'd love to throw a few bucks your way for the content

Here from the start

[@jeffreygao3956]

I hope to see where Samurai do in the overall meta.

[@pjpraz9843]

Suggest next video should be about World War I era landships personally I thought they were very OP

[@gahllib]

Love this! Instantly subscribed. Btw, what specifically was the reference with "safe allah" general unit? I couldn't tell if it was like a historical name that just got CC'd incorrectly (asaif? sheikh?) or if like you were translating a phrase/battlecry about being under divine protection because of the caliphate employing a religious justification for military expansion

[@matthewbabao2553]

romans did mount ballistas and scorpios as launch projectiles for greek fire grenades

[@nightfallreviews1533]

Sounds like a secret hell.

Kievan Rus: word has it that the Byzantines has some fancy fire weapon. Olga of Kiev watching Iskorosten burn: they don't know the meaning of the word fire...

[@albertvonhabsburg]

even The Second Lateran Council accused the Byzantine player of using mod.

[@chevo1361]

Please make more videos

[@langolodelladistopia6171]

Is this channel an echo channel of Tier Zoo?

[@trevormoores15]

The byzantines really said Call an ambulance…but not for me

[@MiG1989Carsten]

at 0:55 was Irland part of the roman empire?

[@jeffreygao3956]

No but they were under the influence.

[@krum1703]

Wait, did Tear Zoo actually make a history channel or am I just a stupid fool?

[@OmarSlloum]

Great video but one thing, you did make it sound like the Arabs first fought against the weak Persians and after completely finishing that war moved on to the Byzantines. In reality they fought both at the same time and were almost always heavily outnumbered and out equiped in the battles.

[@jeffreygao3956]

Yeah, it seems even TechTree can't get everything right.
