For those who may be interested, it's just me making these types of videos in my free time (I'm a full-time video editor), so it's just me making the maps, the animations, the research, the editing, the narration (with a text to speech service, free by the way), plus English is not my native language, so a huge effort is made to publish the best content under these circumstances. If you don't like them just because of the voice and you don't want to see them, that's fine, if you have any suggestions, they are welcome (including if someone wants to do the narrations, a little better)
@@DecisiveBattles During the battle of the Bastards you see WunWun trying to deal with the spears too. He could just pick up dead bodies from the ground and throw them at the enemy. Even dead horses are no problem for him. Without dead things to throw, he could scope up dirt and throw that as hard as he could. Even worse: The guys fighting him held their spears upwards, so any wildling there could walk towards the shields without any spears in their way.... So much dumb things here, and the battle for Winterfell was not even there yet...
@@sjonnieplayfull5859 Yes, I remember. I think when you imagine a giant, you think of the scene of the Trolls when they penetrate the entrance to Minas Tirith, who enter wearing armor, helmets and enormous weapons and crush the soldiers of Gondor easily. Although this giant (GoT) looks less strong, there is a big difference in equipment.
@@DecisiveBattles When they entered that gate I was terrified. I knew it was a movie, I had read the book, I knew they would win, but dang! how do you stop something that big WITH armor? They move too fast to get accurate shots in the weak points, they smash comrades every second, and within half a minute the gate is lost and you don't even have a chokepoint left. With Wun Wun, every arrow was a wound and with spears he could not even fight back. He could have picked up that giant bow they used during the attack on the Wall. Shooting that high into the air equivales to piercing six men at once... the best he did was grab some spears.... I loved the battle, but they should have had him do something else. Now they Worfed him :S
@@sjonnieplayfull5859 Yes, and the Trolls were many, not just one like Wun Wun . In general, I found the battles of the Lord of the Rings make more sense and than those of Game of Thrones (speaking of the movies and series, since the books differ a little, and this battle has not even occurred in the books from GoT). By the way, I plan to recreate the attack on the Wall too, but for the moment I'm currently working on the Siege of Bloodstone (as seen in the House of the Dragon series).
Thank you very much! I agree, while recreating this battle I realized that there was absolutely no strategy at all, Ramsey pretty much killed his own men for nothing and Jon almost lost his entire army. I'm planning covering more of Game of Thrones, LOTR, Star Wars, and more, so stay tuned!
@@potatopoison1130 I agree, there is no better armor than the plot armor, but maybe even with an armor and even a decent weapon, the giant would not have many options against the hundreds of archers that Ramsey had, he could have killed a few more spearmen, but his end would not have been very different.
I like that you respond to all the comments they make to you, no matter if they are favorable or not, remind them THAT THEY ARE HOMEMADE VIDEOS and you work on them alone.

Totalmente de acuerdo, y como le dijeron: "no sabes nada, Jon Snow", aunque el sí tenía un plan algo más lógico el día antes de la batalla, pero Ramsey lo obligó a actuar cuando mató a Rickon en frente de él.
Pero porque el show lo arruinó si tan solo lo hubieran hecho como en los libros...el era mejor que eso maldita sea. De hecho, el Jon de los libros sabría que enfrentarse directamente a un ejército superior en número no es la mejor opción, tampoco entiendo porque no llevo a Fantasma consigo, los lobos huargo cambian las reglas del juego.
Jon wanted to wait for the Boltons to attack but setup no defenses, funny enough we see Jamie do just that at River run. Jon’s comment about shaky loyalty meant nothing. Never plays out. And the genius, Sansa Stark, who shouldn’t even be there happens to have secret army she never mentions to Jon that would have given Jon’s force and easy win and saved many lives. But no, Sansa’s army waits until Jon’s army is almost entirely dead before acting. Pretty sure she was hoping Jon would die and looked disappointed when she saw him on the field. She also never acknowledges Rikkon dying, ignores her little brothers body. Made up D&D crap. Horrible scene, horrible episode. Oh Sansa won the north. Really she shouldn’t even be there, she should be in the Vale, enjoying herself and slowly poisoning Robyn. D&D kept writing dialogue to say Sansa was smart. Every character, oh boy that Sansa is smart. Technically Littefinger won the battle of Winterfell, he bought the Army, he said just let me know if you need me, it was his idea. Then it was Bran who solved the Littlefinger issue after that. Sansa did what she always said, whined and complained till she got her way. She was Xenophobic about outsiders because of Cersei and KL, but the north was awesome and loyal to her. Except that part where a Northman betrayed her family, killed her mother, burnt Winterfell, killed her brother, killed her other brother, stole power from the Starks, brutalized her, abused her, tortured her, and a civil war in the North. But outside of that the Northerners were all peaches, the few that supported the Starks, the mormonts and…. The Mormonts. Great writing.
This season was already an example of how bad the scripts would be in the following seasons, especially the last one, and how rushed it was. The series had the opportunity to become the best series in history but they wasted it, I hope George R. R. Martin manages to amend the course that the producers and writers of the series decided to follow in his next book (if he ever finishes it and actually publishes it).
It was a great battle but horrible reasoning for Sansa to keep her army a secret, if I was Jon I surely wouldn’t be happy with Sansa. The worst battle by far is the Long Night, probably one of the worst battles to be aired which is a shame since it was hyped since the pilot.
In fact, George wanted to make 10 seasons with 10 episodes for season, but D&D absolutely refused that...although I think that Seasons 6, 7 and 8 also have good moments, not much, it is true, but have good moments too.@@DecisiveBattles
@@luciusdomitiusaurelianus5334 regardless of whether or not George is at fault for winds of winter not coming out, D&D had a job to do, and that job was write a tv show. If what they wrote is shit, that means they’re bad at their job and the fault on the TV Show is theirs. George isn’t responsible for the writers adapting his books barely being able to rub two brain cells together
- A line of "pikemen" with seperate shieldbearers = 100% silly - A line of "pikemen" with one row of spears.... ever seen an macedonian sarissa phalanx? Or an Landsknecht/Tertio/swiss mercenary "Gewalthaufen"? It is 5x rows of spearheads. So that people not just "undercut" the pikes. In this formation, soldiers would have easily dodged down, stand behind the deadly point of the pike. Theory? No, thats the way "double-pay" mercenaries of Landsknechts/swiss mercenaries did it with plate armored two-handed swords/helbards, against 5x rows of pikeheads. - Commanders letting their general run alone to the enemy = 100% silly - not armoring a giant with 5-10mm thick steel plates (and no crossbow penetrates 5 mm of steel) = 100% silly Martin and D&D have and had zero clue about mediveval/rennaisance style warfare. Zero! Every sixteen year old kid with an interest in military history would have been clever enough to copycat some history battles.
Progressing the channel, the content and quality of the videos are very good, even though they are homemade. HAPPY 2024 AND MAY THE SUCCESS CONTINUE BRO
I just don’t understand why the hell wun wun didn’t have a shied and big sword or even a log that giant would’ve caused massive devastation for Ramsey’s army.
That was Jon's plan, but Ramsay had a much better one: use Rickon, Jon's brother, as a decoy (and still kill him anyway). In fact, if it weren't for Sansa who sought help from the Knights of the Vale, Ramsey would have massacred Jon and his army without any problem.

Hola, disculpa la pregunta: Dice otro fanático, que estos son videos caseros, es decir lo haces Tu solo? Cuanto tiempo te lleva desde pensarlo, prepararlo y finalmente terminarlo? O trabajan otras personas contigo
Good video. My only critique is that I would guess that you used an AI program or some other software to narrate it. This is fine, but they sometimes need a bit of tweaking, sometimes spelling the words phonetically so they are pronounced correctly in the narration. Throughout the video a few words are mispronounced because of this - the more glaring being "Bow" (as in bow and arrow) pronounced "Bow" (as in bowing to someone). I would expect if you spelled it "bo" or maybe "bough" in the input text, it would pronounce it correctly. Just a small tweak to increase the polish of the final product.
You know whats so bad about the writing behind this show in the later episodes, Smalljon Umber would have never tolerated the killing of Rickon Stark, and would have promptly switched sides immediately.

It was not Jon's plan to actually directly confront Ramsay and his army in the open field, originally they wanted Ramsay to attack them leaving their position well defended, but Ramsay lured Jon out using his brother Rickon as bait. Ser Davos already knew the danger that the Bolton cavalry represented because they had massacred Stannis' army on the outskirts of Winterfell. In this case, seeing that Jon was alone against the cavalry, he had no choice but to send his own cavalry to cover Jon.
Well ramsay had to do an open battle. If he just camped in winterfell, jon could have went to every house in the north and gained the support of everywhere in the north except winterfell, leaving ramsay trapped with nothing except winterfell which has a finite supply of food. As it is jon was only able to go to a few houses north of winterfell.
The reason Jon Snow is stupid; he was made stupid by Dumb & Dumber in order to make Sansa a genius strategist. Season 6 were purely written from Dumb & Dumber's perspective and both of them were allegedly jealous of Kit Harington's Jon Snow popularity among fandoms. F___ Dumb & Dumber!!! Book Jon is smarter than the stupid show Jon in Season 6.
Yeah teleporting armies around thousands of miles started back then... noone could have imagined how this would escalate out of hand and fucking ruin the show

What program are you using to create the map of the battlefield and to make the symbols meaning the different regiments move on the battlefield?
What do you use? After Effects, Illustrator, Priemer Pro? Would you consider doing a tutorial?
Jon Snow: so we plan to send our giant in without any weapons, that will clearly defeat any enemy.
Wun Wun: Snow!
Not even an armor, and honestly it lasted longer than I expected, even managing to break the gate of Winterfell.

Plot armor does play a big part in this. Also giant is overpowered. On par with dragons probably.

How comes Ramsay had so few archers when he retreated? Have most of them been killed by the knights of the vale when they tried to retreat?
Loved the video! Although I recommend using a different voice, in my opinion, it was kind of annoying. Keep up the good work though!

Didn't smalljon die at the red wedding? Valiantly defending his king with a meat bone? Absolute travesty. (The show not this).
If it wasen't for Sansa Jon would have lost this battle. Also why diden't Ramsey shot Jon instead for wun wun?
