It should be mentioned Aethelred the Unready is also a double entendre given that Aethelred kind of means the ready. Thus sort of being 'well advised the ill advised'.

2 heirs

one of them gained the title "the martyr"

"boy howdy i wonder which one will live"

Byrthnoth- Exercising medieval chivalry before it was cool.

Time to put everything on hold to watch blocks fight

I live in Maldon, and often go to see the statue down in the Prom. Very happy to see this video! Thank you!

[_pebbleproductions]

This was such a fantastic video to watch. Being from Maldon myself and researching this battle and time period hasn't given me anywhere near as much insight into this battle as this video did!

Olaf - Can you guys give up your superior position, pretty please?
Byrhtnoth - Sure, what could possibly go wrong?

[mjennings]

A heads up, Vikings: War of Clans is a fraud. It's nothing like the advertisement and is not worth playing. I appreciate they are supporting your channel

[TukozAki]

Appreciate the battle description. For me, to learn of such "small" events helps grasping the broader figure (and remember it probably). The great contextualization of the event that BazBattles is priceless IMHO. Thank you :-)

"I have the high ground."
"um, do you mind if I join you on the high ground?"
"Sure, come on up." (Looks like someone hasn't read Sun Zu.)

Olaf stood up looking at his men, realizing that he was in a bad position. Then he called out to Æthelred and said “if u fight me here u gay!”

[Wi-Fi-El]

I love chivalry. There's something special about sworn enemies honoring each other

[LucasDimoveo]

Thanks for doing these lesser-known battles.

Bryntholf: “Did we win?” Saint Peter: “Well no, but actually yes.”

[HistoryHustle]

Interesting video, really understand more and more where GoT got its inspiration from.

7:35 *I love that effect* slowly emerging until he becomes clear as day, please use this more often it's beautiful

[nmcgunagle]

I really like the way you show the damage done to each infantry unit by shaving away portions of each individual...rectangle? Is that what it’s called? Idk. I like the way you show that though. Other historical battle channels should take note! Excellent work. Thank you for the content!

Keep it up, very good work, research, video, music, narration - 10/10

"It is a gusty summer morning..." That wonderful voice! Already liked at that point.
