Dude, how you can make the camera stabel when recording this?
Are you use any kind of replay mod or camera mod?
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.
This is almost exactly like the opening sequence of "Gladiator"! :)
It's really amazing that they were able to capture such great footage of this battle.
Magic Air I think
Yea honestly it had me creamin and poopin at the same damn time

Through action,a man becomes a hero.
Through death,a hero becomes a legend.
Through time,a legend becomes a Myth.
And by learning from the Myth,a man takes action.
that makes perfect sense
True
I love this quote ! Where does it come from pls ?
If you are the author of this you are wise; if you did not you should attribute the creator so others can read and learn as well.
@@davidstewart5811 I believe that even those a specific quote is attribued to are not actually the first ones to have said so. In the numerous thousand of years that preceded their existence on Earth, many others before them have very probably said the same thing - but in different terms.

Guy takes an arrow to the shoulder.
"Yeah whatever."
Then I took an arrow in the knee
That’s just small cut
People have survived far worse then an arrow or bullet to the shoulder. Just look at most if not all our Medal of honor awardees. People have survived having IEDs take their leg or arm or several limbs. Some have even received prosthetic limbs & returned to combat & the military or police force. People including small kids get shot everyday in most liberal cities & even toddlers have survived gun shots what's an arrow.

Historian fact: Caesar’s Rome would defeat mid-evil Rome Byzantine Empires. If anything the Plague that exterminated 2/3rds West should have blamed not converted to monotheism.
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. The Norse and Romans never had religious crusades either.

just try and imagine in our modern world today, having to fight and try and win in this kind of warfare. stunning depiction and a great video puts me right back into my seat of total war.. great job guys.. bravo!!
Can't imagine the terror of being in a battle like that.

Fuck ya. It would be exhilaratingly terrifying 😂
Not a historical battle perhaps but the fighting is pretty damn close to actual hand to hand fighting- Anyone who has ever experienced a stampede of horses or cattle knows the fear that these guys must have felt listening to the pounding hooves and feeling the ground tremble beneath them. Good work!!
True White people (Germanic tribes) VS. brown race (Romans)
@@joefalkens9834 Romans were white...
@@rare5964 According to pre-ww2 Anglo-Saxon speaking word only Germanic people are true white. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordicism
@@joefalkens9834 "Caucasian" originally referred to everyone from as far south as the Golden Coast of Africa, to Scandanavia, and east to the central Steppes and modern day Iraq/Afghanistan

Thumbs up to the camera man who was able to get this footage real close. Your job will be appreciated forever.
Probably got some kind of award, hopefully not posthumously ! 😮
plot twist: the cameraman placed his camera upon a hawk, that hawks flies through the course of battle
@@meetjeric I wonder what the weight of a hawk would be laden as such!
@@osborne9255 at least the weight of a prey it always carry
L😂L
A fantastic battle excellent shots. Loved the troops walking in. Would be great to see some strategic shots as the battle unfolded it was all close ups.
Especially as better camera mods are so popular, you can get all kinds of angles.
Two thoughts:
1. This is probably the most accurate portrayal in terms of scale of the armies. It’s truly harrowing how these peoples amassed such organized and vicious armies - gives me chills
2. The amount of Wolf pelts worn by the Germanic army is probably a reason why the wolves are endangered (very sad actually)
Wolves are extinct in most of Europe.
In ancient times there could have been 10 times the amount of men in the video on the battlefield fighting real barbarians. Some people don’t understand how absolutely fucking massive the Roman army was for the time and millions who would die expanding the borders of the empire and the millions trying to push those borders back to Rome.
@@saltyhamms10 Thing is, real life doesn't drop it's framerate if there are millions of men on the battlefield at once.
Yeah thats why there arent wolves in europe because they were killed 2000 years ago lol
@@WitcherGerd Wolves have been a danger to people in most of Europe until the 18th century, of course they'd hunt them to extinction.
You make me want to play Rome 2 again ik being Rome is op but it's just them marching and being in formation is just so satisfying.
Rome is based.
Well the Romans were literally OP in their time so... lol
I would call that historically accurate.
The angles and camera shots you got during this battle really highlights how utterly visceral Rome 2 was as a total war game. It's a level of brutality that honestly hasn't been replicated since. Even with the newer WH games and the blood options it just looks comedic and silly. The team who worked on this game at the core really appreciated the time period and had a good vision for how to portray it.
The Germans wouldn't have been surprised by the cavalry charge by the Romans if only they had studied the beginning of the movie "Gladiator"
Brilliant 🤔
I thought the movie was made after the battle.
That movie's a joke, depicting a Roman by using a barbarian actor.

@@tegunnit’s a game idiot
Cannot imagine the stress of marching days possibly weeks to go all that way to meet a fierce barbaric horde across the valley. Mental how wars were fought hand to hand combat. To fight 2 minutes with a guy to the death one on one must be sickening but to fight days face to face is bladdy mad!!

Great job. Fun to watch. Its like what was going on in my mind as a kid as i played with my armies & toy soldiers. Made me smile at that memory. I enjoyed the video.
Hahaha same
This was truly epic buddy. Hats off.
Love the video, just the first part almost threw me off when you said "An army of 6,000 roman legions marches" I was like damn, that's like millions of soldiers lmao.
yep big mistake on my behalf
@@WarAndHistory. Either way, love the video keep up the fantastic work! People like you inspire me to make videos like this.
Actually 6.000 man was regular Legion size not without any reinforcement
@@zuliyanp3046 actually they were more like 4500 in the republic then 5400 in the empire
@@abdelkerimmahfoudh8993 thnks for the corection im need read more about rome history
0:04 Man that's a lot of legions. I thought rome only had about 28 or 30. But besides that it was awesome to watch. I love playing total war rome 2 a lot. I think the roman armor and military is just fascinating to me. Thank you for the fun content. :)
I think he meant legionaries there cause 1 legion = about 5000 legionaries.
there are only 2 legions there for 5k legionaries in each legion
Exactly that's what I was joking about
@@hibonbon1900 It was a joke
I noticed that too and my first thought was "Holy Shit! 30.000.000 legionaries! The Empire is unstoppable!
Very good. I’ve been reading Caesar’s Legion as well as Caesar’s Commentaries on Gall. This production captures the size of the populations involved in these battles.
Good stuff and Germania, Tacitus.

@@pattywolford You're into warfare correct ? But a woman's place is not on the battlefield. War is for men not women.
@@joshuacruz4244 oh, i see…I can’t read history? I do agree war is for men warriors, historically. I find modern depictions of women warriors laughable, skewed to fit the modern feminist narrative. It’s ridiculous. But i do watch a lot of battle history. Please don’t stereo type people based on your prejudices.
One of the best videos on this website I've seen inna while
Holly Crap that was an amazing video the marching scenes perfect as always, the cavery charge awesome!!! I have a suggestion, it would be cool to do a thing where they fall back a couple of times to hold a better potision, kinda of like helms deep they fall back slowly then come back we a awesome and dramatic charge? Not saying do that but a battle like this. So in other words more strategy. 😀
What we overlook…..that in these battles…..all that it required was an arrow into your chest, or an axe splitting into your shoulder or your thigh……and once the bleeding begins….your finished!
Definitely during the battle but the Romans were quite skilled with battlefield medicine just had to survive long enough to make use of it.
Amazing somebody would fight the legions in open ground where the phalanx would be almost unbreakable. Attack them in wooden areas would make it hard for them to form up
That's why Germania was Rome's last Frontier, the forests of Germania made Roman formations a nightmare and the local population was known for guerilla tactics and shock-warfare
@@HaiyeeeTrololol Weren't they also ambushed in the Jewish revolt and lost an eagle?
@@kaustubhlunawat7827 Huh? Israel has a rather open countryside.. Hard to ambush. Even the hills and mountains are rather easy to control. Forget it.
@@Reinaert53 Well the 12th Legion lost its eagle in the Ambush. So yes they were ambushed. Just read it.
@@HaiyeeeTrololol AND It just wasn't worth it to Rome.. A client state so to speak was much cheaper. If Rome had wanted to really conquer Germany they certainly could have anytime they wanted.
Amazing video man pls more of Rome 😍
Loved the vid keep it up ❤️
The things I would do to be able to go back in time to see one of these huge battles in person. I would do some crazy things
I love how you used rtw 1 music. Its too epic
I was just reminded of my childhood!)thank you to the author

True White people (Germanic tribes) VS. brown race (Romans)
@@joefalkens9834 um ok....
From the moment I saw the units in the Roman side, I immediately knew that the Gaulic tribes weren’t going to win. If you had the right troops and even if they had no experience, you can easily defeat a Gaulic army with ease. I always kept my men stationary so they wouldn’t get tired and used my cavalry for rear charges. Worked every time.
OMG this video is legendary!✨
This is fucking badass I could literally watch these fucking battles all day I love these games all of them and I am an expert
Still one of the best Rome Total War soundtrack by far, fits the video well.
Goosebumps right from the beginning.
A very disciplined and very well led legion would be very hard to defeat on an infantry vs infantry engagement.
well, there is a reason why they had an empire.
@@sultankebab1587 Tbf, that’s was mostly due to their versatility and absurd ability to mobilise huge numbers of soldiers quickly. The later stages of Roman expansion lacked pitched infantry combat since their enemies had learnt of their superiority in that regard. Carhae, Teutoburg etc. Early on though, when they were fighting in Gaul, Greece and against the italic tribes, they lawnmowered armies.
@@trtvitor1385 Empires seem unstoppable at first and then their enemys either learn how to defeat them or just become stronger and destroy the empire. What you said was no suprise lol.
@@WarriorofChrist612 Nope. Overextension is the main reason empires fall. British, Mongol, Roman, French all fell due to the fact they couldn't reliably control all of their territories since they were either spread out so far, or were too vast. No Empire has been destroyed by a stronger foe. 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.
@@trtvitor1385 “ Overextension is the main reason empires fall” Lists a few empires, and acts like all empires died due to overextension.
Great battle!the strength,ability,and skill of a soldier is tested and seen.the strong and skilled lives.the weak and less trained dies.survival of the fittest.thank you very much for this war movie.more power to you all.
Gotta love the Rome 1 music being used in this.
Great battle with Rome 1 music is the best 🎶❤️
This is really, really cool.
Impressive , well done !
Really enjoy watching these videos thank you.
How it must have really felt to be there in the moment. So terrifying and grand at the same time.
War at any time has never really ever been :grand"!
@@nightlightabcd War is plenty grand. You'd argue that the mobilization of thousands against thousands of men isn't an impressive or imposing sight?
@@HandyDandy6 impressive yes, but when you’re an infantryman and watching your friends right next to you gutted, that all goes out the window. there’s a reason veterans don’t like new recruits because they glamorize hell
The beginning of this Video was a Good Place to Ambush from Either Sides...
I've been looking for a video like this
*Amazing!!, thanks for sharing these videos!!! Liked & Subcribed!!!*
Epic battle 👍 nice , Rome will triumph 💪
The German would've needed five times their number to succeed.
In reality, the Germans beat the Romans.
I cannot comprehend this type of warfare, so up close and personal. You were face to face with another human being, both of you intent on the gory death of the other, and THEN facing the next man after, over and over again. No thanks brother.
The master of total war cinematic videos.
7:47/7:48 this new knowledge for me, Roma Legion can use their foot too for attacking enemies, although it seem as desperate attack :(
Everybody gangsta, until dense woods are involved. Ask Varus.
The romans didnt struggle to fight in dense woods, they struggled when their dumbass general led them into a ridiculous ambush so obvious that all of said general's advisors were telling him not to go there but he was so infinitely braindead he still went.
Too soon.
awesome work :)
Nice to hear, that you used the original soundtrack from Rome total war 1. Awesome video.
*6,000 Roman legions* damnn, thats atleast 30,000,000 roman legionaries, HAHA
You are correct, my mistake 😅
@@WarAndHistory. HAHA It's okay.
It was a magnificent sight.
True White people (Germanic tribes) VS. brown race (Romans)
Yea that's pretty accurate. This is exactly how armies would march and meet each other on the battlefield. Thousands of men engaging in open combat. Vicious and bloody.
IT's amazing shots every single notes, such a incredible scenes...Excellent👍
Glad you liked it!
I would need some “crank”to make it in those days.
So just vote for Trump. Same thing.
Satisfying Epic battle.
the most deadly's troop is the Praetorian guard and the most dangerous weapon is the javeline throw. in defense mode, his stamina is still a lot in battle
You say about your/unit self?
@@goldenhawk352 That's another guard unit, an entirely different Germanic Guard. The Praetorians would have almost entirely been Italic.
Good commentary , poor grammar , hmm , not just poor , very poor . It’s author was playing truant at high school. No malice in my comment ,it is just the truth , it is uncommon for a person that likes to read , as obviously the author of the comment does, , to have very bad grammar.
Hmm The Praetorian Guard would be in Rome all the time. Not on the battlefield. To guard the Emperor, what else? Anyway, with times changing, the PG became more and more filled with "Barbarians" :)
@@alexseferiades515 No, everything changed over time.. There weren't enough Romans anymore to do the stuff.
So amazing! I really love it
That drone footage is amazing 👌
I want to see this Army vs A10 aircraft.
- The key point to remember here, (if your the observing enemy leaders seeing the legions of approaching legions marching toward you) is that...
> During the 500 year golden age of the Empire. The Romans never quit.
- Beat them once, beat them twice. You will only find yourself facing an even larger Roman army a short time later. And this time, really, really, , , pissed ..!
- As the Carthage general Hannibal found out after whipping Roman Legions for 15 years as far as the city of Rome it self. Trying to get the Romans to accept a peace treaty.
- He ended up losing his unbeatable army & his head to the tenacious Roman will to conquer. And they ended up pushing into & finally destroying Carthage nearly a thousand miles away afterwards.
Cool Info
But in real life the Romans did try to conquer German territory, where ambushed and then never returned...
@@brianmccullough2420 Germanicus destroyed 2 Germanic tribes after Varus was ambushed so they did return, and many roman emperors led large raids into their land after Germanicus.
@@brianmccullough2420 what people don't understand about the conquer of the Germany is that the romans realized that it wasn't worth it. If they wanted to conquer it, trust me, after the Germanicus win they would have simply sent another army to expand their bounds.
@@Tross-fe1bq This is a good point and my statement "never returned" was definitely not accurate, however I believe the sentiment behind it was still accurate, which was the Romans where beaten and although they might have returned with an army that army no longer had the same goal as the original Legions of Varus, thus they did in a sense quit due in part to there defeat by an enemy. So in there case in made sense to fight the Romans.
Its like a rome Action movie!!! Your doing great work
History channel dropping bangers
Just imagine this game in VR, and you are one of the soldiers there.
Just play MORDHAU than. :)
I see an entire cohort of centurions LOL!
Love the classic tunes added to the battle!
So great!! Thank for update!
Epic battle! 👍👍
You should check out the Demi god mod and Army of the gods mod!✌
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!
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 CZcams 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 ).
Marius reform dude
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. Rome was more disciplined than your military was, they didn't get out of line, they didn't take bathroom breaks during marches.

5:42 All those helmets moving was just chaos
Great animation and well presented video. I am troubled but the way the Romans are presented as more or less a mob. 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.
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..
Yes sir, still same tactics and rebellion still prefer an ambush attack
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.
@@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
@@Vivi-xn9iz true but thing is the archers are actually on the battlefield. A drone can be piloted remotely by a person drinking red bull with their feet up.
@@cainmagnetic9796 but your drone cant control any ground, drones have more of a support role in gathering intelligence than bombing
This battle seems very epic.
WONDERFULL. THANK YOU.
Very interesting. When Rome was at its height the only way you could defeat them on a open battlefield was with a massive cavalry with expert bowmen like the Huns. If the majority of your army is foot soldiers then you have to ambush them in a forested area such as Arminius did. If you follow the teachings of Sun Tzu you will be victorious. Know your enemy and know yourself.
Renaissance era pike formations would probably have been pretty good too. Of course they weren´t a thing at the time.
It helped a lot that Arminius knew them very well having been a leader on the Roman side before. The Huns more than matched the Romans in battle experience and leadership. But Rome prevailed until it rotted away from inside.
Hit and run is the only tactic against a superior force
@@brianpetersen2364 Huns didn´t really do hit an run for anything but skirmishing if that is what you are implying. Common misconception about both the Huns and Mongols.
@@XMysticHerox I wasn’t talking about the huns or mongols…

6000 roman legions? jeez Rome kinda overprepared for this
hope these Germanic tribes learned never to attack Roman legions in open fields, giving them room to form their formations for defense "or" offense.
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.
