If the video is restricted again (as it was in my Varna video) I will have to delete and reupload it. This is my first video with narration, I hope you like it! I wonder what you think about it! My future videos' format will take shape according to your comments! Huge thanks to Real Crusades History for the narration! :) For those who wants to support me on Patreon; www.patreon.com/NedimCanIncebay ​ ( I really don't want to make anyone feel obligated to give me anything, but It'll greatly improve the quality of the graphics)

Fun fact: the black prince was so impressed with the king of Bohemia’s bravery that he adopted his personal badge, the ostrich feather, as his own. It’s been the badge of the princes of Wales ever since

"Sir we've hit them with 14 cavalry charges, what else can we do?" The king: "well shiiiiii just hit em with another one?!"

An important fact is the French King overestimated the effect of the Genoese crossbow men and underestimated the English/Welsh long bow men. The cross bow bolts fell short but the longbows had the range and decimated the French ranks.

3:35 "I look for enemies worthy of my sword!" -Genoese mercenary crossbowman, armed with a crossbow

"Philip was injured and had his horse killed twice." That's a persistant horse!

The shot at 13:15 combined with the solemn orchestral tune makes an absolute masterpiece of a scene.

You had to know that during this battle of Crecy, the Black Prince was only 16 years old it s incredible

The longbows used by the Welsh and English were so hard to pull they actually caused deformities in the archers after prolonged use. The damage caused by well timed and well aimed volleys was incredible and had a devastating affect on a solid line of cavalry. Imagine having to face this, if you didn't die you would need new underwear for sure!

The detail given to the hand to hand combat between the two sides is amazing.

Imagine if you will, being an english longbowman, a poor peasant from a small village somewhere in the middle of the island you call home, the only place you'ever known, and being enlisted in the king's army to fight these french in their own land, believing that in case of capture your firing fingers will be cut off, and that you'll be either held for ransom, if your family is ever going to have enough money for it, or outright killed. You're a stranger in stranger's land, where local people speak a different language, have different traditions, fear and hate you, you're cold, wet, hungry, more often than not ill, overworked, underslept, and in front of you there are thousands of knights in heavy armor, riding towards you, filling your whole field of view. Imagine the fear, the absolute horror of multiple waves of huge horses mounted by men wholly clad in metal, charging down on you, filled of hatred and murderous intents. The veterans of this battle sure will have had some tales to tell...

Without a doubt, THE BEST MACHINIMA I HAVE EVER SEEN. Editing, pace, music, accuracy -- all flawless. Do as many as you can. These are history at its very best.

This is just perfect. Congrats man, you did an amazing job, I can tell that you put a lot of work in it. And in my honest opinion, this is the best video you made so far after the siege of Carthage.

I really have to hand this to the creator - this is hands down the best representation of Crecy I have ever seen (speaking as a medievalist that specializes in the HYW). The attention to detail was superb and the use of the MTW 1212 animation was flawless. I have seldom seen better in professionally produced and aired documentaries. Well done. Also a surprise treat to hear my good friend and fellow RCH admin, J Stephen, on here narrating! Do keep me posted if you do any more videos from this period. So much great material (Sluys, Poitiers, Agincourt, Bauge, Vernueil, Orleans, Patay, Formingy, Castillon as well as the Scottish and Spanish theatres).

This is truly a cinematographic MASTERPIECE. Congratulations ! Beautiful orchestral choice of music too!

That over the shoulder shot of King Edward III watching the battle at 10:32. It is heartbreakingly beautiful!

one of the reasons the English archer were so effective against the french knights wasnt just because of the fortifications they made previous to the battle or because their arrow could penetrate plate armour(there is no evidence of high quality armour being penerated) but because despite the knight being in full plate their horses were mostly unarmored, making the knight fall strongly to the ground and face a muddy terrain due to the rain from the previous day. Basically when they arrived on foot to fight the english the French knigths were already out of breath and pretty bruised(an arrow on a plate armour might not penetrate but the blunt force behind the arrow still hurts a lot)

As someone who's highly interested in the arms and armour of this time period. The accuracy and faith to realism is absolutely stunning. whoever made this mod really did their homework! Great vid btw :)

Wow! This is honestly one of the best videos of yours I've seen! Such great moments, must have taken a lot of work. But it came out beautifully!

You portrayed everything clearly mate I want more videos like this.
