Thank you so much for featuring my indie game in your video! Your support and outstanding promotion mean a lot to me. I'm excited about this opportunity and appreciate your help in getting the word out!

I knew Gascony was an important wine making and trading area, but didn't know how critical it was to England. I always thought it was Edward's aggressive pursuit of his right to the French throne that triggered the long war.

First time ever i hear of how critical Gasgony was to England, it almost makes sense why you would wage war for a century; it began with the threat of entirely cripling England itself and not just with redrawing lines on a map that's the norm

That is extremely well executed ambitious landing for a medieval army

As a history teacher your videos are both my go to for engaging & informative content, and my happy place for entertainment/information. Thank you @HistoryMarche

Thanks for this! Love your work man! Walter manny was such a fierce commander, specially with his " MAAAANYYY" Battle cry! Suggestion: the Siege of vienna of 1683!

Whoever made that game. Bro, thank you. You are freaking amazing. I had no idea this was a game and I wanted these videos to let me play them so bad. It's like a birthday or something I literally wanted thia game. I juat had no idea it was a reality. For everyone else this creator is referencing it is actually fire. It's awesome, give dude a chance. If this video is ur kinda stuff and you like total war and 4x games and stuff. Then this is it dudes. I feel like if this guy got some good support he could make this a full on blown triple aaaaaaaaaa indie game. It's awesome, him or his team put work into this. It every single bit worth the 4 whole dollars it cost.

Hi HistoryMarche, thank you for focusing on Medieval French warfare lately. I recommend to anyone to integrate with Schwerpunkt's content, it's as much a gold mine as this

Maybe a "minor English victory" in terms of overall manpower change, but total victory in terms of battlefield domination and as you describe with the resulting impact to pro English and French cities in the vicinity.

Wow, I had never actually heard of this battle before! Usually the medieval videos cover battles I've already read about which is also cool but its really interesting to learn of a new battle. I am excited for the battle of Saint-Omer, poor Flemish just can't catch a break.

The Hannibal series was awesome and it's absolutely legendary that someone made a game out of it

Extremely good. Historymarche is the best History channel on RU-vid.

I like that your maps reflect the coastline of the time, not the modern coastline. Unimportant for the narrative but a good attention to detail.

Will you make the Battle of Patay and the Caroline phase? There are no quality videos from any reputable channel that covers them.

In my opinion it's better to do things in order, this was meant to be the first video in hundred years war series, it's confusing for someone who is not familiar with the subject, how all things started why they fighting etc... imagine you done Hannibal series starting with the battle of Cannae and this is my first video in the HYW series that i watched till the end... i must be honest with my favourite history yt channel... and off course i really like the video... 😗

Great video y'all! You guys should adapt the battle of patay too, it's known as the english agincourt, where the french swept aside the longbowmen with a cavalry charge. (Also pls consider remaking crecy!)

Not the first or the last time Walter Manny arrived in the nick of time to pull somebody’s chestnuts out of the fire. Why he was not a founding member of the Order of the Garter is a mystery to me.

Ça va faire toutes les batailles ou on s'est fait souillés ouuuu ? Le compte il est tenu par Wellington c'est pas possible

I had no idea that the longest war in history between the English and French had begun so far from their current borders and in another country like Netherlands. It is striking how Netherlands and Belgium have been, for centuries, the favorite battlefield of all of Europe, since Roman times, throughout the Middle Ages and practically throughout the modern age. Will Netherlands and Belgium be the places where there are the most tombs of soldiers from every corner of Western Europe? I know that Italians, French, English, Germans, Spaniards, Americans, Canadians, Scandinavians, among others, died there (no wonder it is such a productive agricultural land, with such macabre fertilizer). XD

Edward III was a great king, he reformed English law, had great military success and made the nobility more confident in war, even creating a new chivalric order in the mould of Arthur to further this bond. Edward also did a great job in creating a professional army (by medieval standards) that performed well in pitched battle.

I love how you guys have been uploading more frequently. I always look forward to your videos

Fascinating, never heard of how this war really started

Amazing work as always!

Thank you( history Marche ) channel for sharing this remarkable historical coverage of this subject and wonderful introduction ...another times long bow English men recorded victory ✌️ of England 🇬🇧 on French army ( French alliance flammishes)

Hope as well as the videos on the outstanding well known battles of the war, that you will also cover Bergerac/Auberoche in 1345, Patay 1429 as well as Morlaix in 1342 in this series, all key battles of less well known campaigns in the war.

I'm looking for more games about the 100 year war, I recently tried the Crown Wars: The Black Prince demo and it's really cool, it makes you see this conflict in a completely new way. I would love to see you try it :)

Wow this battle sounds so cinematic! I always thought medieval amphibious assaults were the thing of myth and legend. Are there any other examples of ancient amphibious landings like this? As always, Ill see you in the next one 👍

Thanks for a great episode! ⚔🔥🏹

Excellent video!

okay that game is a brilliant idea hopefully he/she will get more support and a bigger team behind him in the near future

Compare to the other videos, this one is quite short. But quite great nonetheless!

This would make a great movie I think Ridley Scott should be informed

I love every video you made so far. I would love to show it to my little brother, but he doesnt know English, which is a big problem in Czechia. I already sent you an email mentioning this and I wonder... Would it be possible for me to translate some of your videos and create a shared youtube channel, where Czech speaking people could watch your great work?

Yo nice vid. When’s u droppin the next Hannibal vid?

Hey, I was binge watching second punic war series. But it has not been finished. I think many are waiting for the next episode so eagerly. Please please do it soon...❤❤

It’s amazing to me how often armies during this era. Would neglect to bring any form of ranged weapons. Then proceed to just stand in formation and take volley after volley. How many men have died because of terrible military command? Countless….

Great work. Looking forward for the next episode

Much love, y'all. The content kicks ass 👏 👏 👏

Interesting. Thanks for the clear sep by step explanation of the development of the battle.

Great video! I'm looking forward to seeing the next one.

Thank you, as always. Well done.

Nice video. Can you make a video on the age of Portugal like their clashes with Spain and Kongo and intervention in Ethiopia and India.

The Perveza campaign 1538 in this month Pope called for a crusade and gathered a large crusader fleet (600 ships and 100,000 men) from many christian kingdom and duchies but Hayreddin Barbarossa with his fleet annilihated them killed most of them at least 60,000 crusaders died and sank most of their ships after a 5-hour battle the largest naval battle in history

Thanks!

Why isnt this talked about more? Its basically a medieval D-day Edit: Its not the same in its effect but it was an important amphibous assualt that included a bombardment.

Keep the history coming brother! ❤

Never knew about this interesting battle. Thank you for the great video! Moar plz.

"Victory? No, no. Begun the 100 years war has."

Is this the start of a hundred years war series? if so awesome. This war is so uncovered by youtube.

Wow, your pronunciation of "Sluys" was (with exception of the last one) spot on.

Fantastic video as usual.

And that's how the historical "friendship" between England and the Flanders was built...

Thank you for this great video

I wish this game was on the Apple store I would totally buy it

CarthageBellumPunicum is the BEST NEWS in a long period ! I wish best to your friend!

While looking at Google Maps, I noticed that the town of Cadzand, currently located in the Netherlands, is actually on the continent. Does anyone have any idea what happened there? Was the region terraformed or someting?

Thank you

Lovely as always

Such heavy casualties. Was a nightmere for those men

After giving up their wine, the English turned to beer and bingo.

You need a 100 year war playlist.

Cadzand and Sluis are in the Netherlands since the 80 Years War with Spain, conquered by Zeeland. That part is called Zeeuws-Vlaanderen/Zeelandic Flanders, says is all).

It is difficult to imagine that a single piece of paper could such influence European history that it resulted in a small island becoming a world expansive empire . The Magna Carta , was that document , it gave the right to every common man to hunt in all forests but the kings forest . This meant that as long as you could hunt with a bow and later on a musket your family would not go hungry . It encouraged archery and musketry as a skill from a young age . This is why English longbowmen and the redcoats were so feared the world over and how the transition from archery to powder was smoother . When you instead compared this to France Italy and other nations of europe they had no such document and started training the required skills to adults , particularly with archery which requires an immense amount of upper body strength to draw a 80lbs pull longbow repeatedly for hours on end .

Please could you make a bombardment of algiers 1816 video. After watching the Fontenoy project I trust you'll do a sterling Job.

It's look cool, does the game exist on PC ? Because I look for this type of game, especially when it's about history ! By the way, I saw Crown Wars : The Black Prince on Steam, if anyone is interesting. It look like XCOM2. I played the demo and if I'm not mistaken it's inspired by the 100 years war.

Great show

I love this channel content

Imagine being a peasant. Drafted into the militia. Your beloved wife kissing you a goodbye and you promise her that you'll return safely. Your baby-girl awaiting her father. You march out with the thoughts of your small farmhouse and cooking food. You dont have much, but you're happy. Then, you lose the fight. Surrender with the hopes of somehow returning home. You're done with fighting, you just want to live. Just want to go back home. You're no soldier. No knight. No man-at-arms. You're just a regular dude who doesn't care about who's flag is flying above your head as long as your family is safe. You maybe beg for your life. Cry, for you want to go home. A "heroic knight" just walks to you as you try to crawl away, crying and begging. Your thoughts, dwelling on your promise you made to your wife. You can't leave her. You can't die now. Not before you see your baby girl walk for the first time. That Heroic Knight jabs his sword to your chest because your poor wife couldn't scramble enough valuables to pay for your ransom. She has no idea you are dead. Still searching the house for anything valuable. Anything at all. She will gather all of your belongings, from pots to clothes, and race to the beach with the hopes that she can pay for her one and only lover. You are long gone.. War is hell.

Nice vid as always, but the schedule is quite weired (should be the first vid to be released😎)

Thanks

Shame the game is not for pc...

Thus started one of history's biggest rivalaries.

Well, this seems like a good day to kick off The Hundred Years War.

Can you add (Kurdish Sorani) language to caption please. Thank you. ❤

Wonderful video, though the pronunciation of Forecastle and Longbowmen seems off. Otherwise though thoroughly enjoyable.

Than you.

Good stuff 👍

This is a nice story to what will be a fine series

We need another video on what happened next

Are you telling me the longest war in history started in the LEET (1337) year??? numerologists pls resbond

Crazy times the sword and shield isn't the word for it for what it is today so many people died more than likely just for war good work on your history of the world is shaped it is thank you

Alternative title for the video; How The Price Of Grape Juice Ignited A Century Of Conflict

Although it is nothing more than an small skirmish in respect of the much larger battles in the war to come, it did prove how vulnerable France would be to sea attacks, if England gained control of the channel as they would at Sluys in 1340. As well as even more importantly cement Flanders neutrality and eventually loyalty to the english cause which they would join openly by 1340.

Have you though of using Gameplay from Total War games for demonstrations in your documentaries? @HistoryMarche

What does the red line through the house names above the portrait mean, such as under Guy De Rickenbourg at 6:52?

The wool-trade with Flanders was far more important than the Gascon wine-trade.

Hope one day could you make video Dusan the mighty

Good video but the ad spot to video length ratio is way off, video is like 20% advertisement for a game that i'm never gonna play. You have 30 seconds to make your case to a player, if they aren't gonna play it talking more won't convince them.

This sounds like the music baz battles uses

Advisor: My liege, this raid could have major repercussions for a century. Should I send our army? Phillip: Non, this is far too important. Send in the Flems!

Are you able to put the game on app store?

The game seems interesting to be honest I may try it

2 videos in 4 days. What did I do to deserve such a gift.

please could we get a release of the game onto pc/ iOS?

Good pronunciation of Sluys!

Archers do not fire. They shoot arrows. Firing weapons comes about with the advent of gunpowder.

Hi Will that game ever be on iPhones?

Please finish your Hannibal series.

I’m about to use these tactics in age of empires
