Launched a new channel for historical slightly animated battles! 0 subscribers currently so wouldn't mind new/some/any subs at all. If you'd like to see me make more of such historic battles - join me at: www.youtube.com/@gw-battlefield-histories
Skirmishers / missile infantry that participated in the battle were not represented in the animation. Still learning how to do these videos so will have to be excused for it - or not.
"A general's wet dream"
-Oversimplified
No. This is not simplyfied. This is more accurate and true to the sources i have seen, of ALL Cannae animations which there are hundreds! of, and i've seen all of them. It is 100% true to the sources. Read Polybios and Livy.
All other animations leaving this or that part out. never giving the full picture. It was a major widespread engagement.
@@m.j.9318who gonna tell him he was quoting someone
@@m.j.9318 he didn't say it didn't happen, all what he meant iss every general wants to achieve this.
That was one of the better video's on one of history's most famous battles. Good stuff 👍
Too kind words sir, thank you
Music?
Pov: you are playing as Carthage against Roman ai, but you are a hoi4 veteran
a carthage vetaran would do this in battle of cannae
Total war veterann
@@Murad911lol
Gamers are not veterans. Veterans are Veterans.
@@92656trw According to sources, veteran is also defined as a person who has had long experience in a particular field.
In this case that would mean someone who is experienced and has great skills in a particular game
POV: Steiner attacked
This is the most accurate animation of the battle i have seen so far! It is exactly on point with polybios and Livy. The timing is perfect. The only thing missing is the skirmish foreplay and the simultaneous battle for the carthaginian camp at the other side of the river, which the romans attacked during the battle with some thousands soldiers from their northern (bigger) camp which were still stationed there.
After the main battle was won Hannibal came to their aid in defending and then drove the romans back to their camp. Then he effectively besieged the camp for a night and morning and thats where he took so many prisoners.
Some romans of the northern (bigger) camp were stealing themselves away in the early morning, passsing the other southern smaller camp. They made it. The ones who stayed at the camp were taken prisoner. basicaly 10 000 men.
Edit: correction one mistake here: The roman infantry started to move AFTER the right flank cavalry was engaged. At about 3/4 of the battle for the roman right flank (roman cav getting charged, then dismounted and fought ON FOOT by celtic cavalry), the infantry started to move after they saw it and thougt: " well the cav doesnt do well, let the infantry decide the day". Something along this is what Paullus said or thougt and rode from the right flank to the center. (where he fell later).
Timing. timing is everything. if you get everything right and then even add the units correctly it would be insane.
It is actually possible to recreate every detail of this battle because we know so much of it.
For hoi4 do a super ww3 in millenium dawn. NATO/EU vs Brics (but Russia becomes the USSR) + UNASUL/Latin America fully mobilized.
It is great, still, while they are in battle, it is weird to not have lookouts on horse, watchingfor enemy reinforcement (in hindsight, it seems weird they couldn't detect all those soldiers hidden for an ambush and those waiting to close the pocket far away, just thinking they were naturally defeated and retreating and not retreating to a place for an ambush - since you'd think they would use all their soldiers in a frontal assault against the mighty Rome)
Hannibal ordered his men to raise as much dust as they can when reaching the field. Romans seen those behind them, but too late. Some battles really look absolutely ridicilous when viewed from this perspective. Most of Hannibal battles do, until the war moved to Africa of course. Keep in mind that there are at least slightly different interpretations of the battle available as well.
idea: rumbling of attack on titan in the times of the second world war on hoi4 to see how the allies and the axis would do against the titans
Thx for making the _real_ false gap !
Where the red and blue
What hoi4 map mod is that?
Rome:Total war music
How were both sides loosing numbers before they even had contact????
there were wars before WW3, since I started it in 2017
sorry thought this was on another video x)
missile units were the first to inflict casualties
@@warmaps78 Bro guided missiles in the second punic war?????
@@maxwell6881 unguided :D skirmishers
I don't remember, was it in antiquity or middle age that fights between armies were scheduled on both side to avoid moving whole armies (and the costly logistic) for nothing? (just a costly trip somewhere for several months with thousands of soldiers, meaning a lack of soldiers for defense)
I've heard about it being done on occasion in Greece, it probably happened elsewhere as well too, in antiquity, but depends on who the enemies were. Greek on Greek violence is a bit different then when Persia joins in. I doubt it happened too often in any case.
I’ve never heard of that happening, To the romans of the time probably would’ve loved that. Romans at and before the time of Cannae considered using anything we’d considered more than “basic tactics” during battle as a dirty move and un-Roman. They basically wanted to have two armies just go slug it out in a open field. Kinda like Cannae…. Which makes sense they had the best infantry in the world. They figured a giant army on the favorable train wouldn’t allow Hannibal so use any trickery, but they were wrong. Hannibal forced them to abandon those views quickly after Cannae. crazy after his death the roman writers tended to talk about him in a positive light. Dude was so good he killed near a quarter of your population and still gave him props. Hannibal op Scorpio plz nerf
Bachmut right now (ukr win)
Ukraine lost Bakhmut
Russia won Bakhmut
Shit, GG guys :D
music pls
i beg of you
Why were there casualties before the battle even started?
I think it's people that escaped
@@user-vk7zv3he1m probably the skirmishers exchanging the projectiles
