I love how the troops shout "Shieldwall!" in their original languages.
Though it is Norwegian the Vikings during that time spoke old Norwegian which is more similar to Icelandic than our current language which was forced by the Danes.
Hello?
@@yuripantyhose4973 the vikings during that time spoke norse still, old norwegian, old danish and old swedish developed around the 1200s
@@sadshober9173 there is no "old norwegian" separate from norse, old norwegian is Norse, what we speak today in norway is a offshoot of old danish.
@@yuripantyhose4973 old norwegian is not norse, old norwegian is a norse dialect, like danish and swedish.
i am so happy that i found this channel
Same
Mardt de visser same, i thoight Reply History was only one
+Planet KC there is historia civilis too
Non Rompere Ddddffd yeah ze roman zistorian
Me too !! Absolutely love it.
rip old voice
at least it's clear that it's still our main man writing the descriptions
Don't force me to order the proofreading on video descriptions also :) I plan to do occasional narration job too, particularly on East Europe themed videos, but first I need to do alot of homework regarding my voice over "artistry". There are so many layers begging for upgrade in my videos, next year is gonna be exciting, and very busy.
You just need to tone down the accent, it doesn´t need to be a perfect British or America clean accent. A Eastern European tone would be perfect for Eastern European videos.
If it is not too much, do you ever plan to reupload the old videos? Is very hard to follow them. :(
Tone down the accent you say, I wish it was that easy :) Try speaking Polish! (not to offend any other hard-to-learn languages, like Hungarian, Finnish, Chinese & more)
I plan to reupload some of my older videos since the first voice-over feedback appeared in my mail. I'm just waiting till I'll be pleased with my current videos, then I'll be refreshing them with new VO layer, along with the visual&audio overhaul.
You are awesome either way. Thanks for this great stuff.
BazBattles That sounds like a great plan tbh- having different voice actors dependant on the region you're covering!
Damn this the perfect narrator.
He sounds great. Big upgrade.
You can also tell from his voice that he's incredibly handsome too...
Just listen to that smooth buttery English voice.
Mmmmmmm....
Yup, agreed! Love the voice - it makes the narrative engaging, and complements the visuals beautifully.
As someone from England, I don't think he's English. Sounds like he's from Australia or South Africa to me, especially the way he pronounces certain words. "Death" for example, sounds more like "dith", or back as something sounding like "bick".
Thanks for using a native english speaking narrator. We appreciate all the work you do, but it's much more inviting to watch this way!
Anybody here ever heard of the flash game "1066"?
yea, used to play it sometimes :D very interesting
My dream is to make a game like that one.
@@irongeneral7861 that game is super simple and kinda boring id shoot for way higher quality
@@courtlycard6556 I disagree. I think the only reason it would be boring is that there simply wasn't more content.
I remember playing flash games and having such a good time on them, stick war and what not
wonderful presentation! no horrible reenactments or dodgy CGI. Lovely and detailed maps, great little zoom function. This is how famous battles should be presented. Defiantly subscribing, thanks so much for the time and effort placed into this. I am educated, and defiantly entertained.
yay!, keep the voice actor!, you made a good team
love these videos you keep putting out, very high quality.
I approve so very hard of this voice.
I wish my vassals in CK2 took the intiative like this.
loving this! keep them coming!!
Gets better for each and every video! Especially love the shieldwall graphics!
Amazing!!! Thank you for making these, I'm from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada with all western European(Irish, English and French blood in my veins) and always wondered about these ancient battles and what happned leading up to my ancestors making the journey to Newfoundland and Nova Scotia(Latin for New Scotland) sometime between the 16th and 17th centuries. I'm completely captivated by these narrated videos!!!!
It's great that you do lesser known battles like this one.
"lesser battles" this was one of the most deciding battles in european history.
Hello I mean arguably Hastings or Stamford Bridge is bigger
loving the videos keep it up. I've binged watched all of them so far!
Having a clearly spoken narrator like this absolute lad narrating this video really helps a video
I love those tiny little shields and spikes you use on the formations.
Woah, glad to see Baz getting some budget. That voice over sounded pro!
this narrator was actually very good, especially compared to that heavy accent guy
Gamersville101 this guy? well, definitely better then the heavy accent guy as I said :P
Gamersville101 ah, gotcha! good this narrator is here now!
You literally prefer a narrator just because of their accent!?
Daniel Watts English accent = Easy to understand.
Thick foreign accent = Hard to understand
This guy has a South African accent, not English.
"When the scandinavians send their people, they are not sending their best. They are sending people that have lots of problems, and they are bringing those problems with us. They are bringing paganism. They are bringing crime. They are rapist and looters.
And some, I assume, are good people". - Harold Godwinson
Did you just call all Scandinavian people rapists?!
Clearly KomradeCPU did not just call 'All' rapists.
Make Britain Great again!
Harold Godwinson the 3/4 part Dane, 1/4 AngloSaxon xD
@Saddam Hussein no, Harold Godwinson did
Mate, your videos keep on going from strength to strength. Regardless of the narration voice; the content and production style of your videos is second to none on youtube. Keep it up!
Your videos inspired me to become a Patron (my first time doing so). Keep up the great work!
Thanks Nick, that's very nice. It is my first time on Patreon too :)
This is the best channel ever
its amazing how much trouble is caused when a king dies hairless. who knew
Heirless. It is different from hairless.
furthermore affirmation that you cant be King without a good beard
Hairless kings leave their kingdoms at risk without an hair to stabilize it
@@stefanwalicord2512 holy hell I cant remember now if I was making a joke about hair or whether it was a genuine spelling/autocorrect thing haha
@@bigmanfoamy4589 entertaining either way! Lol
Thank god you went back to a voice actor the audience can actually understand
This was the type of channel I've been looking for for years.
Also try Historia Civilis. I came here from them.
Love the old videos! Great job!
Dude I’ve watched this every year on my birthday I’m born on the 4th of December
Great channel and really like the narrator. Keep up the good work.
those viking shield poping gout like that just made me happy
So happy I found a South African history channel! Hows it boet
To be fair, it's just the narrator that is from SA
The videos are so good my 4 year old grandson loves them too.
Thank you, enjoyed. The Danes invaded or raided 1069-1070 AD, supporting rebels against William, leading to destruction of York , Peterborough and the Harrowing of the North, and the actions of Hereward the Wake.
Best voice of the three :D (Not that it matters much, the animations are insanely good)
flawless production
Can you do either the battle of Stanford bridge or Hastings? Or there are the rebellions following Williams conquest. Loving your vids! Keep up the good work!
This was great. Subscribed
Thanks to Bas Battles cheers . direct to the point with animation to get the feel of the situation . Awesome thanks buddy .
This channel is wonderful, hope they'll put some videos about battles in Indian subcontinent from 330 B.C. to 20th century
HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS CHANNEL BEFORE? THIS WAS AWESOME!!!
From 800 subs to 13k. You may not remember me, but I told ya that you'd become popular because of your talent. Congratulations and I look forward to seeing how much you have grown in a year from now!
Shame that I didn't recognize your nickname at first, but I do remember that extraordinary comment of yours. While I really like you guys pointing out the areas I need to improve, it's also nice to hear that somebody is aware how much of effort is needed to produce this type of content. But I'm not here to complain of course :) Hope you do well too.
Oh, and I'm pretty sure it was around 300 subs then :)
BazBattles You are right, it was 300! That is a crazy amount of sub gains - well done!
Yep, I can maybe see your talent more than others since we are in similar fields of work and I am impressed with every video. The production is very professional and is the most aesthetically pleasing whilst being informative that I have seen with this type of subject matter.
I hope to make a similar comment again in a few months when you have gained an even larger following - you really deserve it. Thank you for the reply and I look forward to future content from you : ]
What about now? 🤣
This channel is pure quality content. Thank you, please keep doing what you do.
I hope you hold onto this voice actor. I'd happily listen to him in more videos.
Love it ! Nothing more to say 10/10 would watch again.
You are quickly becoming my favorite history channels on youtube.
I am glad I found the best channel
i really loved this channel and pls make more of this quality videos.
This voice is AMAZING
I know, right?
Some suggestions on battles. Battle of grunwald , battle of Hattin, Second Battle of Tarain, Battle of Changping. Love your videos
Good times
Subbed because of the better narrator now :D
great video really keen for the next one
thank GOD the English dude is back!!
john smith I seen your comment on the Swiss video
Great video!
You should do something like the battle of Waterloo at somepoint, it would be really cool.
Again, fantastic work. I hope your channel continues to grow, you certainly deserve it.
This is absolutely great. I love it.
Love BAzBattles!
These videos remind me of something I would see on the history or military channel 10 or 15 years ago.
Had no idea this battle even existed. Nice one.
Great VO Dan :) I'd love to hear you give an even more animated read!
This is my new favorite channel.
Great video baz how about the battle of Thermopylae next
Great video as always
Damn, I liked the slavic dude, I felt at home with him narrating.
Fantastic content!
This channel is so good! Amazing visuals! Well researched and just very entertaining. This deserves to be one of the top history channels on youtube! :D
This narrator is great!
King Harold of Norway is actually one of my ancestors This is really cool because no one covers this battle because of Hastings
Keep these coming man!
You do these videos so well.
This channel is great!!You should do the battle of Adrianople 1204.
Damn these only get better. I just realized I've never seen any Varangian Guard battles. Do one of 'em.
Here watching this after playing Ancestors Legacy. Awesome vids
great video as always keep up the good work.
If i could offer my opinion, I think it would greatly add to the video as a whole if you
1. described the units armor and weapon make up for each side briefly in the beginning,
2. make a key on what each box means. It took me a couple videos to realize what each unit was and that the units with bold outlines are the heavier troops and the stars are the more experienced.
Thanks,
Have a good one
Also, maybe group the battles into different conflicts, like one with just the Romans, one with just the English, etc
best educational and fun video i ever watched :)
Great channel for a history buff such as myself.
Am I the only one doing work at home and needing to watch this????
Keep up the good work, your videos are excellent.
this channels gonna blow up. frigging sweet
Great one!
I really like this channel. You've got a great thing going here!
Fantastic work! Stanford Bridge and then Hastings please!
It would be cool if you did some videos of battles outside of Europe seeing as not many of historical battle channels cover those moments of history.
I like the fact that Hardrada was coloured blue and set up camp at stamford bridge.
Max points for attention to detail
Watching this after the latest video
I know it's more modern than you usually do, but may I recommend doing a video on the siege of Miss Dagh? It's a very interesting moment in history, in my opinion, at least.
Oh how I love ya videos mate
Amazing videos!! Could you keep them coming?? I'm am a total war games series fan and I believe many of us love videos like these! =)
follow this up with the next battle!!!
Awesome video.
Harold...Harald...I'm not the only one who got confused at times, right?
I love these videos, though I prefer the less accented voice. Only minor correction on the Norwegian names: The emphasis is on the first syllable in most names, so it's HARald(like Harold, same names), not HarALD, and HARDrada, not HardRAda. Same with SIGurdsson, not SigURDsson. Would love to see Both Stamford Bridge and Hastings after this. Keen to see the graphics of William's feigned retreat at Hastings:) The cracking and white flags are so simple and brilliant to show how the battle is going.
Good feedback
Quality work, instant sub. Got a bright future for your channel ahead!
loved ur channel. subscribed
Actually the witan first chose Edward the exile, son of king Edmund Ironside, as king. But he died on his way to England.
I am a really really big fan of battles more closer to modern day like World War 1 and 2 and stuff like that if you could do that I would love it but still keep up the good work honestly this is amazing!
This is great!
keep up this great work
The have the English voice for English battles and Serbian wrestling voice for any other ones xD
Crowder!
