*Hey guys! Welcome back to another recreation of the battle of Bunker Hill! Is there any other american Revolution battles you would like to see? Thanks for watching :D*
My ancestor served in that battle, and later he did under Washington as a drummer boy, and his descendant served at Gettysburg, and after that most of my male ancestors served in at least one war.
Good one,man! I am reworking existing unit rosters and adding the French regiments for the mod atm, so I guess you'll be able to recreate more battles like Yorktown. How about battle Monmouth for the next video? :)
4:22 Actually technically speaking, the rebels were betraying them by 1) uprising, 2) fighting, rioting, and killing there own fellows, among which were them, not to mention tea raids, and 3) they were the MINORITY of colonists at the BEGINNING OF THE WAR, which WAS WHEN THIS BATTLE TOOK PLACE, before many colonists SWITCHED SIDES! P.S loyalist colonists at the end of the war went to Canada.
The Bunker Hill Monument truly is amazing. From the top one can see at least a big part of Boston and there is museum nearby that has a lot of different artifacts from the battle.
Lol it’s funny because it’s a joke but that’s what the rebels famously threw at second bull run/Manassas when they ran out of ammunition.ahhhhhh gooood times goooood times.
Out numbered militia tore the guts out of a few regiments of Regulars and only were overrun when they ran out of ammunition. That's insane. I guarantee after the battle both sides decided that fighting Englishmen sucked real bad.
Pyrrhus Of Epirus Well a Pyrrhic Victory Is When You Win a Battle But Your Men Take Way to Many Losses Like You Can't Do Anything About Because So Many of Your Troops Died
Also only 200 British soldiers were killed. Not 1050. That was total casualties. The majority being wounded. Comparatively few people died. Just over 300 all told.
One thing I always see historians miss about the two sides is, the Patriots had a gun that had rifling and the British had no guns with rifling's therefore the future Americans could kill effectively at 300 yards and the British were only effective at 200 yrads. A huge advantage for the Patriots
Actually, it's a bit of a misnomer. The Rifle was not common in new England, and didn't see much use until Virginians and Pennsylvanians started joining. Even then though, rifles made up under 10% of the American guns. The British also recruited riflemen from among the Tories. Edit: The rifle was accurate up to almost 600 yards, while a smoothbore firing en mass was about 120 yards.
Personally, I love the more staged battles. Reading about the events is one thing, but seeing it happen is so much cooler! Maybe do a full Waterloo? Like not just La Haye Saint, Hougoumont, the cavalry charges, Prussian reinforcement, etc. but all together. It would be long and super hard on the computer, but that is the ultimate battle in my opinion. Thanks!
As Gernan, the battles you must know: Battle of Teutoburger Wald Battle of Lechfeld Battle of Frankenhausen Battle of Leipzig Battle of Königskrätz Battle of Sedan Battle of Verdun Battle of Tannenberg Battle of Stalingrad Battle of Berlin
@Joshua Phillips oh my, Well there wheren't many many wars in the colonies but one war, the french and indian wars. That war was a war the colonies hardly took part in. No slow in taxation? Well the colonies where a taxhaven right up to the Revolution. Taxes in the colonies where only Fraktion of what they where in England. Harrasment by the navy? Is Fighting smuglers that avoide the few taxes that there are realy harrasment? Or just trying to maintain law and Order?
Exactly six months before Congress signed the Declaration of Independence, throwing off the yolk of British tyranny, they passed the Tory Act, which basically made it illegal and punishable to have a different political opinion than the government. www.history.com/this-day-in-history/congress-publishes-the-tory-act
when a video has 6,930 views after being up for just three hours you know its gotta be good. im gonna use this to celebrate the battle's anniversary every june 17th from now on, by posting it to my facebook page.
15:05 -15:21 "Colonial Idiots" I died laughing. XD Edit: Wow Apollo, you hearted my comment. I feel...special. Anyway, please do the single player version of the Battle of Bunker Hill because as much as the players tried, the replay isn't really accurate 😊.
I would love to see the single player version of the battle. I think it's funny how you see the tracers of the rounds more than 100 years before tracer rounds were invented lol
4:21 Apollo:"how can you betray your own countrymen?" Me,suddenly remembering that they all have European, mostly british ancestry: "I like your funny words magic man"
I would love to see more revolutionary war battles done in this style!!!! This was really well done! Bravo! Some battles to consider: Brandywine Germantown 1st and 2nd Saratoga Camden Guilford Courthouse All of those would be pretty epic and pretty awesome to see done in this style!
I love that show. I'm going to watch season 4 episode 7 today. I think a recreation of the battle of Setauket would be cool. Or Monmouth, since it was also featured in that show.
At the battle of breed's hill when the minutemen ran out of ammo they actually started using glass and rocks and shot the glass and rocks at the British U can go search it up
Harley O'Keefe, the British had well over 1000+ casualties with 200 deaths and over 750 troops wounded. The British took the American position at the end of the day, but it was a pyrrhic victory for the British. King George III had felt 1000+ casualties to the colonists was too much that early on in the conflict, and numbers that the British could scarcely afford at that point. Thomas Gage was recalled to England because of the casualty numbers at Bunker and Breed's Hill and replaced my William Howe.
Tanner Aslan actually he British decided we shouldn't waist troops on these farmers and fought against the frence Yorktown and the fallowing battles where against the loyalists
Aaron Keys you shouldn't just count farmers, a number of other countries (Spain, Portugal and France) all played a part in helping the colonies gain independence.
"Boohoo, Loyalists. How could you betray your own country?" You could say the same about the rebel militia. So the loyalists betrayed the betrayers, so that makes them betrayers? Think about that for a second..
Apollo1641 They wanted to have their own country and the brits wouldn't let them. Not much of a betrayal, more of a "Hey, we want our own country. So... See ya."
The 23rd Welch Fusiliers Regiment have a fantastic Museum in Caernarfon Castle (Castell Caernarfon), which commemorates the history of all the Welch Fusiliers from its conception to the modern day. From my understanding, the King of The United Kingdom could not afford another war on the American Continent, and a lot of the soldiers had either settled in the New World or went AWOL and settled. The UK were tied to a global war, especially in Europe where the King had promised to support the tiny country of Prussia. Mostly because of the Royal family, who had married the Royals from the small country. Both France and Russia were the Prussian hated enemies, leaving the country landlocked between them. So the solution was to use the feared Royal Navy to blockade the most narrow straits of the Mediterranean Sea (at Gibraltar), as well as guarding English Channel. The RN fleets were stretched and shipments of troops and supplies to the Americas, took too long and were often treacherous from Naval battles and the tempered high seas. Alongside the combination of losses in combat, desertion, and ill judgement from the Commanding Officers, London Politicians, etc. The loss of the UK to their European enemies was deemed a greater threat and the UK was too poor and lacking in power to commit.
This is not super realistic I'm pretty sure that the troops did not use gunpowder packets until way later plus the best soldier could fire 3 or 4 times every minute and the British troops could fire 4 times faster than colonist troops because the British troops had way more experience than colonial troops
Gunpowder packets were used during the revolution. The Brits could fire more but the Colonials had better accuracy because most of them depended on hunting small animals for food.
@TheBritishBulldog ?? What? Your logic there made absolutely no sense at all. How does accuracy not matter? Whether it's a person or running animal you have to hit your target to kill it. Besides the real reason the British lost so many men during the battle was because the British charged head first into a fortified position where the militia had an elevated hill to shoot down on the British as well as an excessive amount of cover and road blocks along the hill line. After this battle the British never again attacked head first into a fortified position during the war and this is exactly why.
The Flag was used at that time. The blue plain on the flag had only 13 stars for the 13 colonies. Not 50 like we do now. But the flag was used. So was the "Don't Tread On Me". The Gadson flag was the first official flag of the United States Marine Corps in the Revolutionary War. Just a fun FYI Epic video. Love them. Keep up the good work.
The thing I loved about Empire is how the dead stayed on the field and didn’t go away. Added to the realism and you could tell where the really intense parts of the battle happened.
Funny how you term the loyalist troops as traitors. The tyranny statement is a bit much as well, out of all the empire, this was the least tyrannical the British ever were. Taxing subjects of a British colony is reasonable no? Arn’t you taxed from a federal government now? I feel Americans love to dramatise their origins as noble but in all honesty it could be said they stabbed in the back the mother country that helped secure their position in North America from the french and some Native American tribes. The colonies didn’t like the idea of not being able to expand into the territories of the Native Americans who also helped secure their position cause of the Proclamation Line. It could also be said that they betrayed those tribes as well and oppressed them throughout the rest of American history. Not saying you should feel ashamed of your origins (otherwise as a Brit I would be screwed) or not admire your history, but I wish Americans would approach their history from both sides in every historical event. By admitting right and wrong helps to approach modern day problems with humility.
Fan Bigflo et Oli no French history has more than enough that you need to know on its own like Borodino, Verdun, Fontenoy, Tours, Orleans, Austerlitz, Ulm and Dunkirk to name a few
Anyone interested in the real battle should read 'Now We are Enemies: The Story of Bunker Hill' by Thomas J. Fleming. Really history book. Incidentally the Kings Royal Regiment of New York, was also a loyalist Regiment, partly raised in Canada.
This was a wonderful recreation of the battle. I loved it. Great job! The 95th Rifles were skirmishers, they travel ahead of the lines of infantry and open fire at will with the aim to harass the lines of the belligerent infantry. Normally both sides have em. (:
That's what saved the British on April 19th 1775 during their retreat from Lexington/Concord. The skirmishers preceeded the main body of troops and were able to neutralize a lot of minutemen waiting to ambush them. They circled around back of them, then attacked. It was a tactic unfamiliar to the minutemen, one that allowed the British to miraculously return to Boston, not unscathed however.
I like all ur videos pixie! But I do hate it when an americans praise battles won against the british That might just be because im british but yh. Nothing personal btw and no offemce intended
the battle-ready gamer Don't worry. Most of us know that the French and Spanish saved our asses. Still, don't you think bunker hill was a tactical nightmare?
MrSBR24 swr yh I do think it was but its jusy a bit like rubbing it in but still pixie makes it a great vid so ill still watch it. I still have full respect for america winning.
You Americans are lucky! You have a good nation! My country Philippines,we lost in trying to get freedom,we were fighting Spain and then America and cause our General's doesn't communicate properly and our enemies are not Spain or America but Philippine itself we were unlucky,all the time I see American Revolution I just tell myself,why my country is not like that :(
We have this saying about crabs man. Our resistance to America proved to. Heck, our last movie about that war with the americans, Heneral Luna literally IS about us just bickerih with each other and killing the one dude who could've been our saving grace when it came to guerilla warfare. and don't listen to these idiots, america is still a good country. It's the main image of freedom after all(not Eu, not african countries, not russia or china, America).
honestly i dont see how that is legit. if i was fighting for my country or independence, i would shoot at anyone for it. also you are risking your own life if you don't shoot straight
Could have used the Algeria map in empire to get a little more of that coastal battle feel since you can see the ocean on one side, it even has a nice hill to set up on for the American's that does actually look similar to the historical lay out of the battle, maybe a thought for a future bunker hill recreation!
Didn't they have a map for bunker hill in the opening stage of the empire total war campaign? Couldn't they have just modded that out and used that for this?

Battle of Bunker Hill is actually an important battle for the american colony which then led them to independence

Fan Bigflo et Oli no French history has more than enough that you need to know on its own like Borodino, Verdun, Fontenoy, Tours, Orleans, Austerlitz, Ulm and Dunkirk to name a few
Crecy and Agincourt
Anyone interested in the real battle should read 'Now We are Enemies: The Story of Bunker Hill' by Thomas J. Fleming. Really history book. Incidentally the Kings Royal Regiment of New York, was also a loyalist Regiment, partly raised in Canada.
TOTAL WAR TOTAL WAR TOTAL WAAAAARRRRRR

Third age

I ONLY KNOW CAPS LOCK!!!!!!!!
It was the Battle of Bunker Hill and braids hill
Apollo can you do campions more often
This was a wonderful recreation of the battle. I loved it. Great job!
The 95th Rifles were skirmishers, they travel ahead of the lines of infantry and open fire at will with the aim to harass the lines of the belligerent infantry.
Normally both sides have em. (:
That's what saved the British on April 19th 1775 during their retreat from Lexington/Concord. The skirmishers preceeded the main body of troops and were able to neutralize a lot of minutemen waiting to ambush them. They circled around back of them, then attacked. It was a tactic unfamiliar to the minutemen, one that allowed the British to miraculously return to Boston, not unscathed however.
I like all ur videos pixie! But I do hate it when an americans praise battles won against the british
That might just be because im british but yh. Nothing personal btw and no offemce intended
the battle-ready gamer Don't worry. Most of us know that the French and Spanish saved our asses. Still, don't you think bunker hill was a tactical nightmare?
MrSBR24 swr yh I do think it was but its jusy a bit like rubbing it in but still pixie makes it a great vid so ill still watch it. I still have full respect for america winning.
the battle-ready gamer I think that you'll be rubbing it in a little bit if your country had a very low or no chance of winning the war
10:19 he is targarayen not stark. He is the rightful heir to the iron throne
FIRST!!!
Kings Mountain, Cowpens, and Guilford Courthouse, the most epic battles in the Southern Campaign.
Matthew Kennedy and Camden
You Americans are lucky! You have a good nation!
My country Philippines,we lost in trying to get freedom,we were fighting Spain and then America and cause our General's doesn't communicate
properly and our enemies are not Spain or America but Philippine itself we were unlucky,all the time I see American Revolution I just tell myself,why my country is not like that :(
You have no idea how shitty is America
We have this saying about crabs man. Our resistance to America proved to. Heck, our last movie about that war with the americans, Heneral Luna literally IS about us just bickerih with each other and killing the one dude who could've been our saving grace when it came to guerilla warfare. and don't listen to these idiots, america is still a good country. It's the main image of freedom after all(not Eu, not african countries, not russia or china, America).
Only 3??? Well you should learn at least 20-30
The thing is soldiers didn't want to kill each other that's why the muskets were so un accurate
It wasn´t the soldiers who produced the guns...
Yeah but the soldiers aimed with them
honestly i dont see how that is legit. if i was fighting for my country or independence, i would shoot at anyone for it.
also you are risking your own life if you don't shoot straight
They were still hollow iron pipes...
That didn´t stop me from dying...
Historically the US commander did die in the battle
When Total War Sagas: Empire 2 comes out I'm gunna lose my mind
Battle of gettysburg in 1700's
Could have used the Algeria map in empire to get a little more of that coastal battle feel since you can see the ocean on one side, it even has a nice hill to set up on for the American's that does actually look similar to the historical lay out of the battle, maybe a thought for a future bunker hill recreation!
Didn't they have a map for bunker hill in the opening stage of the empire total war campaign? Couldn't they have just modded that out and used that for this?
Long live the British empire and god save the queen 🇬🇧🇬🇧 😂 great video mate love your content
Do you think there is a mod that allows you to play the battle of stamford bridge and hastings,if there is do you mind making a video of it.Thanks!
