    What an alien experience it must have been to face the Roman Legions after being militarily isolated for so long. The Britons fought admirably well considering the circumstances.

    • @Eshanas
      @Eshanas 4 года назад +36

      Eh they probably fought gauls, went abroad as mercs, repelled Germanic raiders, and the warfare of the time was near universal - bands of youngins, lines of spears, or sword/ax men with shields and javelins. Britain's warfare just kept chariots around for longer compared to the continent.

      @@thebrocialist8300 one of the newest incomers were the catuvelauni tribe, only around 50 yrs earlier they crossed to middle Britain , just north of the Thames.
      Caesar claims to have defeated them destroyed their stronghold and took slaves tribute as well as making promises mot to attack the other tribes.
      None of that happened .
      Caesar landed in South East England ( Kent) he never crossed the Thames or defeated the catuvellauni.
      Within a few years the catuvelauni had extended their territory and took trinovante land making them bend the knee to the catuvelauni Chieftains.
      Meaning that Caesar was chatting rubbish.
      No archaeology exists from that time outside of Kent.
      Nothing is found north of Thames in catuvelauni territory.

He was so eager to make sure his ships were safe and to get the siege over with, the Britons must have been really confused when they just randomly left lol.

      Japan is still inhabited by the Japanese, Britain has been invaded successfully by the Germans multiple times. I mean - the Celts are still there but the English kinda took a lot of their land and as a consequence everybody and his mother had to deal with English invasions that they would not have dared to launch if they were still on the continent, unprotected by the channel ...
      I wish the British kamikaze would have repelled the Danish, the Norwegians, the Angles, the Saxons and the Normans (did I forget somebody?) but sadly it didn't. It would have been better for everybody on God's green earth, including us Germans.

      Hehe, yeah the crossing was probably more dramatic and slow, but it was sped up for the sake of presentation.
      Plus the Romans supposedly chose a fordable area, in an area that the water wasn't so deep at that point in time.
      There is a dramatic story presented by Plutarch during the crossing about a legionary who lost his shield in the current while he was trying to save some of his comrades, but i left it out also in order to keep the presentation simpler and shorter.

    "Britain II: Britain Harder" was in many ways like the second part of a trilogy ("The Godfather", "Star Wars", "The Terminator", "The Dark Knight"). The first title got good enough criticism and public acclaim to let the producers give the director free reins and go balls to the wall and implement what they couldn't in the first one. As for the Gaulish insurrection, I've read plenty of Asterix comics to know who those dastardly Gauls were and how they defied Caesar. He was right in fearing another uprising from those volatile Gauls.

    Honestly what I want to know is, how did the Romans and the local tribes communicate when making an allyship and exchanging information? Did they just play a massive game of charades giving Caesar intel? Man, I'd love to have seen it.

    Were the Britons not able to defend from the hills with their notorious longbows?
    Reality aside, in Age of Empires II, my main strategy when playing as Britons is to create fortified camps and use the extensive range of the British longbow to prevent any enemy infantry, cavalry and even archers (as they have far inferior range to the British longbow) from approaching the walls

    It is funny to see that Caesar decides not to use particular strategies against people of Britain. He simply advances with his legions. Even to capture their capital.

      Well thats an interesting observation that i also was contemplating upon.
      This multiple units format is still being developed mind you, iam still trying to come up with ways to keep them but make them more conspicuous, those methods being, reducing the number of troops so as to make them larger, increasing the size of the shield, or even simplifying the design if that means that it will make it more visible, but the bottom line is that iam certainly considering what you said and iam still trying to improve upon the format in order to make it the best possible.
