Dude, how you can make the camera stabel when recording this? Are you use any kind of replay mod or camera mod?

[@jamessmythe1891]

Two points: 1 Why do you think the Romans didn’t use flame throwers in battle - set the entire Germans or Celtic tribes they were fighting on fire, that would have meant instant victory, a far safer method of fighting then the close range hand to hand engagements with the risk of injury and death ? 2 According to Julias Caesar’s account of battles with the Germanic tribes he states that they had little body protection, other then the shield they carried which was soon rendered unusable, wore skin which only party covered their vast bodies leaving them exposed to Roman sword, archers and spears. Your video suggests otherwise.

Rome before 300C had 400% the population and 1000% GDP and 10 x manpower and vast science and engineering knowledge intentionally destroyed by Christianity forced conversion from top down. All 21 supercomputers queried agreed mankind would been vastly superior and colonizing stars by now if Rome had not. Same with Japans culture adopted by Asian as founder of modern China Sun Yet Sun agreed with Japan 1924 sadly died far too early. As anthropologist it was stunning to learn just how similar Samurai and Roman culture society were. Humans lost and forgot such vast greatness falling back into ignorance and divisive superstition. Like the irony the Greeks adopting rather than fighting over gods, the most logical of tribes. Japan China and Korea adopted not fought over Buddha and gods. Valuing science above all as today.

Roman Empire fell from within, and had too many enemies for it to handle - couldn't patrol its borders with the size of them and the reduced military at the time. Empires also don't fall when someone learns how to defeat the army, as they adapt over time. Mongols learnt how to better siege European castles, as did the Ottomans despite them being obstacles early on in their Empire's reigns. The Romans incorporated more cavalry and light axillaries towards the latter stages of its rule to better combat Germanic tribes in the north and Persians in the east.

I only have one thing to say. The history of the Germans and the Roman occupying power in Europe was a completely different situation. The Romans only got as far as the Rhine and not over it. The Roman Limes was the border of the empire and final. This was the fact due to the Roman losses in the Battle of the so-called Teutoburg Forest, in which the hitherto undefeated Roman Empire had lost a total of 3 legions with man and mouse. The myth of the Undefeated Roman Legions had been broken. And the Germans largely retained their freedom and independence.

As a war vet, I question of the marching solders would be wearing full armor and shield until they were approaching danger zone! They often had camp followers, often amounting to greater numbers than the solders, and long convoys of supply wagons, often stretching out for miles! There would be great numbers that would be out hunting and gathering wood and such supplies as well! Formations also would not always be marching in such tight formations! There would be solders dropping out , to use the bathroom for example, and these tight formations would soon be stretching out for many miles! They would not be forming up like this till they confronted the enemy of felt they might be in danger, like being vulnerable to ambush for example! Although this looks very impressive, and it is, this is not how they would be marching most of the time! Very few large scale battles like this took place on wide open fields! The Germanic tribes would attack the solders in wooded areas, where the Romans would be in thin line where the front of the lines could not see the back of the lines, and the Germanic tribes would ambush the Romans in more skirmish like, with guerrilla warfare, then slink back into the woods, hopping the Roman's would chase them, where the Roman war of battle would leave them at a disadvantage and the German tribe would have the advantage! The Romans lost whole legions this way, but in the end, of course, the Romans wore down the Germanic tribes and many even joined the Roman armies! The opening scenes of the Gladiator movie was probably much more realistic! There was in no time were the Germanic tribesmen ever in such uniform clothing or shields!

[@mat3714]

Check out Roman history, you sound very interested but maybe an update could help , modern archeology and cross references evidences have now addressed those topics and several credible KZbin channels have good introduction clips to this stuff. Just an example of this , Roman soldiers did marched with equipment after the "marius reforms" at the end of the 2nd century bc. They even came up with a cute nickname for them "Marius mules". Also Germanic tribes equipment and tactics greatly improved overtime mostly due to prolonged contact with Rome and even often fighting in the legions themselves ( and by often i mean that Rhine and Danube legions were almost entirely composed of germans after the republic era ).

[@grahaltmills472]

Marius reform dude

[@brandondavis7777]

Nope. Rome's legions got rid of the camp followers and long baggage trains by making the individual soldier carry his equipment and rations, and they'd hunt after setting up camp for the night.

The Romans perfected the compact unit formation which allowed the rotation of the front line troops and insured a continuous presentation of fresh troops to face an enemy growing more tired as the battle wore on.

[@dennismckown4951]

hope these Germanic tribes learned never to attack Roman legions in open fields, giving them room to form their formations for defense "or" offense.

[@SuperChuckRaney]

they never learned it well, although they did best in ambush, Germanic keep trying to assualt Roman trops, worked a fedw times but over all, nah. Check out "Battle of the Long Bridges"

The Way they fought then is the way they fight now..first the archers ..that would be the arteliry..the calvary would be the tanks..and infantry charges..

[@Cleeon]

Yes sir, still same tactics and rebellion still prefer an ambush attack

[@cainmagnetic9796]

yep the infantry definitely charge at eachother with swords and shields and engage in hand to hand combat....majority of modern warfare is done through long range firefights, ieds, aerial/drone assaults and bombings.

[@Vivi-xn9iz]

@@cainmagnetic9796 but the concept stays the same Archers weaken the ennemy (artillery) Cavalry takes care of threats too big for the infantry and allows enclosure of areas (block paths etc... with presence like vehicles) Infantry occupy ground and takes care of the small scale fighting

germanic tribes in history: " Let´s be sneaky guys and lay an ambush " germanic tribes in this vid: " Fighting with less manpower an uphill battle in the open field against romans and probably getting ambushed myself? I´m perfectly fine. "

[@Cleeon]

Germanic tribes not always make an ambush, many battles they figh in open battles

[@LuanMower55]

@@Cleeon cool, but then they'd actually use tactics. Even the most primitive of peoples, the most idiotic of leaders, have a self-preservation instinct, and germanic leaders were NOT stupid, they knew how to fight, and even if they'd never fought before, they'dve chosen a better day, better weather, better field of battle and a number of other things which would have made the battle more equal; the video also feels without scale or tension, sure there is a conflict, but what for? How wide are the battle lines? If the roman line is shorter than the germanic line, are they being outflanked? What if the oposite is true? Are we told if either side is close to winning or losing? No, this is just a moshpit of men with sharp pointy sticks with neither tactics or strategy, just worthless background noise.

[@Cleeon]

@@LuanMower55 hmm... From which sources or from where or who do you informed that germanic tribes is primitive? Oohh... No, maybe you heard it from roman senates like they... From junii family??? Thats myth and political propaganda, just like said Sparta is always and must be military States, thats wrong. Maybe you call them primitive, after comparing Greek, Roma, and Persian buildings with germanic hut? No, that how they choose to life inside dense forest, so many woods, they why not use it? Germanic, if I'm not wrong, is who find under floor water drainage system. And also, Gaius Julius Caesar from julii family admit the bravery and many Fearless warrior from germanic, i'm sure his nephew, Octavian, who become first Roma imperator agree with that fact. Thats why, i remind others, germanic peoples not always did ambush war, many time they figh with open and fair battles, sometimes lose, sometimes win.

[@LuanMower55]

@@Cleeon let me break you argument apart piece by piece you idi** Julii were created by Ceasar after he became Consul in ~50-45 bce as a self worshipping gesture. There is nothing political about citing historical facts, as long as it is in a impartial manner, no one ever says Sparta was only about military, people talk about their military traditions, which by the way were only possible because of the enslaved hellotry. There is no comparing a heavily forested, cold, wet and misserable place such as clasical germany to the lush valleys of bronze age mesopotamia, or the levant, or anatolia, or armenia, or transoxiana, or any other rich place in the western part of eurasia. You are wrong, the one to 'discover' underground drainage system that we know of are the 'Indus river valley civilization(s?)'. Gaius Juluis Caesar did in fact say that, but the romans also adopted many other people's strategies and equipment, from Iberia swords, from etruscans shields, from greeks homosexuality (nothing against it) and tactics, from (later) persian dynasties cataphracts, and so on, and so forth, so your point about germania being oh so great in the eyes of a war criminal and genocidal maniac such as Gaius J. Ceasar is null, as even the numidians were great esteemed by him and other romans. Yes, they did not always ambush oposing forces, but they preferred that over a fair battle, proving their leaders capable of complex strategic and tactical thoughts, as i said. Citing Caesar's supposed thoughts is wrong in the first place, but supposing them to be true and accurate, then tell me why he greatly inflated the numbers of soldiers he faced? Oh, maybe it was because he had an agenda, making his account of anything but his battle tactics and that of his enemy unreliable at best, his intent was to impress the people of Rome, and making your enemy a greater power than yourself is an excellent way of telling a 'story arc' where the weakling eventually wins against the big fearsome and horrible barbarians in an impressive, and exagerrated manner; and his nephew, though emperor, was, like him, a genocidal, self loving, clever and cruel man with a political agenda, intended to impress the people if italia and the rest of the empire whom he had starved and empoverished via his incompetence in dealing with the boat king and anthony, so whatever sources you have where he says this, are likely biased in his favour as well.

[@Cleeon]

@@LuanMower55 ooh now i know, i wonder, i just answered other people comment, and give some example, and just want to remind other, germanic tribes not always prevent the open battles, when doing war again each other germanic or other peoples. Then why the other one, you, come with some missunderstood and triggered??? So you're the barbarian here. Whats problem with you? Your home just sacked by Legion? Ooh i hope so.
