Finally someone does a series on the Scottish wars of independence

[rohitrai]

Btw, both Balliol and Bruce were Normans whose families arrived in Britain in 1066

Edward I was a very dangerous opponent to try and fight. He was a very good capable soldier with A LOT of experience as well as a capable ruler as well.

My favourite part of Scottish history I'm so glad they're doing a series on the wars of independence. Looking forward to the battle of Stirling Bridge and Hugh de Cressingham getting turned into a wallet.

Hoping to see Andrew de murray get a mention in this video Wallace is a hero and all but gets too much recognition since he fought in the lowlands. meanwhile de murray fought a very successful campaign in the North. He and Wallace combined forces and was the main tactician in planning the battle of Stirling Bridge and became guardian of Scotland with Wallace but died of wounds soon after.

I've been a fan for a while now and I've always admired the insane production quality but the art in this one? just a perfect blend of imagery, story telling, and well-researched, well presented history. Literally my favorite history content.

Truly wonderful era we live in. We are in the library of Alexandria here on YouTube. People like you are a blessing.

I love the new POV's for the troops on the ground, really makes it more immersive and cool.

I'm studying this period of history at Uni right now so good timing with the series 👍 found your channel from the Bannockburn vid a few days ago

I wish the voice over artist could just follow me around while narrating what I was doing.
Awesome content as always!
