Reminder... Macedonian kingdom was a Greek state. Stop being annoying about it.
rome anytime
I bought the Roman Legion :)
@Kings and Generals Roman legions, obviously. I am probably more capable of holding a gladius than a sarrisa
When Battle of Lepanto is coming ??
M dearly waiting ...
Lol. Did somebody just saw the "Execute Order 66" command? 4:21
I hope you all learned something, never send a Licinius Crassus to command a Roman Legion.
@Aleksa Petrovic varus, log in
It just hit me. This isn't the Crassus that died in partia, but maybe his father or grandfather because the Crassus that lived during the times just before Cesar was borned in the year 114 BC
Liquidsback so is this Crassus great grandfather or something?
@@al-muwaffaq341 idk but damn aren't roman names complicated
Yeppp, someone's gotta Carrhae the responsibility.
I'll see myself out.😂
Perseus: "I'm the king now"
Rome: "K."
Man ancient dialect is so difficult to understand 😀
Demetrius: “Roman togas are better than Greek togas.”
Philip V: “You were an accident”
"Salve Father!"
Philip: "NANI?????!!"
Philip V: "A bastard from a basket"
*Khitones or Chitones - Toga is a Latin word.
“Execute order 66”
“it will be done my lord”
Does this mean the Romans are Jedi?
@@Slap7481 Douche.
good soldiers follow orders
K&G should be hailed as "imperator" for all the years entertaining us
Perhaps "Theodora" adapted to mean "Holy Entertainer" though I agree with your sentiment.
@@BIONICLECLAYPOKEMON that works better
2020 CZcams rewind should basically be a livestream of his triumph ceremony
The 225677th Fragment of the Man-Emperor of Mankind I couldn’t agree more with you
Or we can call K&G as The Great Military Historian.
“Callinicus” means “Man who wins a beautiful victory” in Greek. Appropriate here for Perseus.
Kalli[]o [Good , Nice Beutifull ]Nikos[i]Victory or the one who Achieve Victory
@@saguntum-iberian-greekkons7014 It is named after Mikhail Kalinin soon after WW2 on his death. Though his name comes down to the plant of viburnum, which is one of traditional russian symbols, it's name is derived from color red, which is in itself a synonym to beauty. So it's about beauty once again.
Is that what it means on your slavic language
Rome : The Macedon woud never dare to challenge us again
Perseus : Allow me to introduce myself
I am a man of wealth and taste
@@thenaigamer2829I’ve being around for a long, long years
I'm glad your videos are going to help more people learn that Perseus was a capable king and general in his own right. Unfortunately, that makes his decisions in the future (or should I say past?) Battle of Pydna all the more perplexing, especially since he employed Hammer & Anvil tactics so successfully in this battle.
To be fair. Looking at the duration and scale of casualties on both sides, this was more a skirmish than a true battle.
He didn't employ hammer and anvil tactics here, at least not intentionally. His cavalry and skirmishers outclassed the Romans heavily and they routed, allowing their compatriots to be outflanked. It was a natural consequence of that.
@@RexGalilae I agree about this being more of a skirmish than a proper battle, but him not using hammer and anvil tactics intentionally? He personally led the charge into the rear of the Roman center and broke it. We can't get into Perseus' mind to find out what his exact battle plan was, but I'd still classify him personally routing the left wing of the Roman force and following it up with a charge into the rear of their center as an intentional maneuver.
@@SeleucusNicator
I may have used the wrong word. Hammer and anvil is a *proactive* approach to a battle where troops are split into two different roles - holding and assaulting.
In this case, what he did (even the Thracian king did the same) was a single head on charge to break the enemy and when gaps developed, surrounded the pockets of any remaining resistance. Reactive being the key word I didn't use.
It's pretty routine work for any cavalry commander overseeing an enemy's rout to be frank
There's definitely something wrong with our records of Pydna in my opinion. The infantry charging forward into uneven terrain, Perseus fleeing the battlefield without even coming close to the enemy and being branded a coward, and finally him fleeing Macedon outright instead of holding up in Pella? Pretty sure there must have been some treachery at work.
Actually they aren't that perplexing. He was winning, and had to charge, but his junior commanders and soldiers were probably too excited and lost order. The part about him fleeing without action is probably a reel by Plutarch, and his Agema were also likely engaged - not as Plutarch claims.
At 12:40 I was hoping to hear "The Greeks could rule the world... Alexander did".
Our army just hit a million subscribers lads!
Time to invade and conquer channels ,my lord
*ITS HARVESTING SEASON*
ZuboyTV 😂
Yes Strategos!
@Boris Erdogan indeed
@@zuboy4272 What other channels? I noticed that the 'friends' section is missing a few channels which used to be there. Baz, Invicta, Epic History are some of the good ones.
12:39 sent shivers down my spine. Perfect timing for this piece from Rome: TW
"The Greeks could rule the world..."
Alexander did. He took an army to the far indus, there was nothing left to conquer. Indeed shivers and goosebumps.
@pokezee king-wolf dude i almost shat my pants when you replied to my entire name. I was like how does this guy know my real life name
@Boris Erdogany ou might take vienna this time
They did rule the world for 500 years
loved when the rome 1 greek music started playing at the end there. 12:41
Eumenes is definitely that kid who always tells on the teacher.
This particular Eumenes. ; )

IMPERATOR!
Cool new battle intro!
12:43 perfect song for this moment.
... Alexander did...
Excellent historical detail -
So enjoyable! Thanks K&G!
That ending music, the Greek main theme in the original Rome Total War (2004)... good old times - and really well fitting.
Love the content you guys provide, it’s a shame that history channel doesn’t teach history anymore. When I want to binge on some Antiquity I watch K&G! Thanks
This is hands down my favorite channel for historical war documentaries! Kings & Generals is the best!
Rome had so many resources backing them at this point, it is hard to imagine Macedon, in their condition, defying them. Makedon's army, at this time in history was effective and efficient in it's own right, but had put too much emphasis on the sarrisa phalanx winning the day and too little on their cavalry wings. It was a military cost issue and an understandable one considering the region had been at odds with it's neighbors for over a century and a half at this point.
I have been watching this channel since I think around 100k subscribers. It is one of the few channels I have stuck with. This is one of the best pieces of entertainment I have seen in a long time. You're docs seem to tell an unbiased story, is interesting, and LOVE the Bond super villain narrator. Thank you for what you do. Please keep it up.
Yes, please release it soon. This event is really interesting and historically crucial!!! Btw, loved the new format at 10:05 for showing what commander was where and with what troops. 👍
"Well then, execute order 66"
god that final greek intro from Rome 1 gave me chills down my spine
nice work!
I misread. This is not about Cunnilingus at all.
Well, Crassus certainly got licked.
Velk I misread this isn't about proctology at all
Bur it is also enjoyable
This gets ladies wetter.
@@TheBayzent "This gets ladies better",sorry i misread.
I must say, I enjoy when you guys break down the type of troops and their position in the battle line. It really helps paint a picture of the battlefield. Keep up the good work!
A proud thracian here, chaire from Xanthi, Greece.
Bulgarians are Thracians, you maybe have some blood
@@sskspartan lol, The Slavs came later 6 century AD (CE). There is definitely some mixup but Bulgarians are not event 5% Thracians
man y'all're unstoppable upload after upload of the highest quality work thanks for giving
I like how you show the units up close when explaining each army.
Excellent ! Very nice description of these decisive events of the Greek-Roman rivalry and history.
I'm a simple man, I hear the Greek intro music from Rome 1, I press like
Again awesome video and great work. I'm shocked that Kings and Generals doesn't have anything on the Punic wars yet. I know theirs a ton of content out there on it but you guys are the best. Hope your planning a big one covering it.
Brilliant work as always. Also loved the soundtrack for this video
Nothing better than a video from my favorite channel, the BEST channel
Thank you for an ad that isn't about some Pay-to-win game for your phone. Love the channel and love to see ads that promote further learning :)
Thanks for the MagellanTV free trial. This looks great!!
Love the new music. Makes everything feel so fresh!
I hope one day you will tell us about more ancient states, just like the Meroit kingdom, the Galatian kingdom, the Numidian kingdom, the Bosporan kingdom, the Armenian Empire and the Kushan Empire. As interesting and informative as the formation of Parthia or the Epirus kingdom. Thanks for your content.
Finally such an unexplored episode in history gets to ge explored!!
Really high quality content. Thanks
Congrats on 1M subs!
The quality of this channel is just so good
Still the best among all such sites, and what makes you the best is superior quality and professionalism. What makes your competition lesser is their silliness - such as the little conversation balloons that pop up for humor. Hopefully your content will rely on continuous high quality in the future, as before, and not lessen the value with the chat bubbles.
Congrats on 1million and all best to you in all your efforts
This video was very well done hope to see it like this again 👏👏🙌
Some sources say about some thracian footmen fighting with "beak-shaped"curved-swords they had been using with great effectiveness against armor and shields alike. Not the famous dacian falx but the more earlier version similar to half boomerang type, very rare. Thanks for the video!
4:18 - "Well Then, Execute Order 66"
Does that mean that Emperor Palpatine was inspired
by Philip V? XD Hmm .. that figures for some odd reason.
great video once again!thank u so much!if its possible i'd like to make more videos about ancient battles between 500bC and 1bC.for exable the Peloponnesian war (431-404 bC).keep going the hard work and never stop doing this!
Awesome video. I'm so glad you're following the new researches on Philip and Perseus which tend to reinstate them in the eyes of History.
Careful though when you're talking about the Agema, they were not a cavalry force. They were a select 2 000 corps of infantry among a 5 000 elite corps, the Peltasts (which had nothing to do with the light infantry of the Greeks).
They fought with the cavalry led by Perseus himself though. Recent researches show that in the second century BCE it was common to associate horsemen with footmen which would cover the retreat of the horsemen once they would have came close to the enemy and discharged their missiles.
Wow . The episode i was waiting for
Congrats on 1 Million
Congrats on 1 million subscribers. Totally deserve it.
Awesome video Kings and Generals I have enjoyed the Greek history you have provided to us views and hope for more Greek battles
Perfect! As always 😀
Nice, very nice, as always!
The Greek intro music at the end fits perfectly!
Great episode 🎆
Congrats to the 1 million subs you guys got you deserve everyone of theme
I love the fact that you 've put the map of whole Europe, and how it looked at that particular time. It huge factor in order for people to understand the balance of geopolitical power between nations.
Fascinating! New one for me!
More on Ancient Egyptian battles.
You guys are awesome
ooo i like the new unit breakdown screens
Epic as always
Congrats on reaching a million subs!
CONGRATS ON 1M SUBS!
i was actually thinking just last night, "man i wish there was another episode on macedonia". ty K&G
This is the best channel on CZcams ❤️
Cant wait for the next episode
waaaa the Imperator Rome soundtrack is lovely
I really like the new order of battle presentation which highlights units' position on the battlefield at the bottom of the screen while showing what they looked like.
Unfortunately there are once again major differences between the narration and subtitles. It appears that the subtitles are an earlier version of the script that was eventually used for the narration. For me it really helps understanding the story when they are synched, but in this video I had to turn them off because it was very confusing.
LOVE THIS CHANNEL👍😎
nice job dude
Ah the lovely greek intro at the end of the video
Perfection!
You have been spoiling us with those 20 min videos
This documentary of the Macedonian Wars really did inspire me to make my graphic novel. Unfortunately for the Romanophiles, it's an alternate universe and everyone knows what happens in every Macedonian campaign of Rome 2 Total War.
@098765 Craper Well yes but no. More on Foot Companions and Veteran Silvershields.
Thank you
Episodes 4 sir.thank you
I love the content from this channel so much, I’m now re-watching all the videos again. Please keep making content! Soon as I’m able, I’m gonna join patreon 👍🏼
Sometimes i check twice to check if you guys put new vid out lol
4:20 love the reference.
History without feelings... the best type of history !
Loved the Rome Total War Greek Intro music.
7:30 can someone tell me what's the background music? That's my fav music and specially when the battle starts!
Huzzah, love this channel
Thanks
So exciting!!!!!
Can you do the battle of pydna it was the last battle of the third Macedonian war and it resolved the war in Rome’s favor
This it's so great, the early romans wars, in this period is when roman might was forge, keep up K&G's !
You have more than 1 Million abbonents. Respect. Greets from Germany.
lol
Demetrius: "SALVE, FATHER!"
Philip V: "@#%&!!"
Demetrius: "Ave, paternum et regium."
Philip V: "THA FOK YE JUS' SAY TA ME YE LITTLE SHET!?!?!?"
4:18 i laughed out loud :D :D :D
Rome back then was like USA after the ww2 unmatched numbers of recourses and manpower while the rest of the world was full of small kingdoms.When i was in school in Greece our teacher had told us that Rome had about 500.000 -700.000 men at the age of military service.Of course all this men could not be concentrated in one place for one battle but it gives you a taste of the Rome's size.
Roman-Macedonian-Greek videos is the best Keep them comin
No need to divide Macedonians with Greeks. Same thing.
Subtítulos en español por favor!! Tienen espectaculares vídeos pero faltan subtítulos!
5:13 K. Had me in tears hahaha!
MOAR CONTENT!!! FEEED MEEEEEE!!!!!
ty
3:45 I recognize that Imperator Rome music
Will you do a video on the late 1850s battle between the French and their Italian allies versus the Austrian-Hungarian Empire that sparked the creation of the Red Cross?
