Merry Christmas! Unlike our previous full episodes, this one has 15 minutes or so of new footage, as we tried to cover three more battles that weren't described in the stand-alone episodes. Consider supporting us on patreon: www.patreon.com/KingsandGenerals

Every single guy in this conflict was either named Henry, Richard or Edward
-
Game of Thrones watchers: "So you're telling me the 3 main areas of this world are named Westeros, Essos, Sothoryos? Lazy naming" The British: "Wessex, Essex, Sussex."
-
25:00 "Then captured Henry VI yet again" Edward IV" I am assuming you know where the tower London is" ? Henry VI "Yes I know, I will see myself out"
-
Ever felt unnecessary in your life? Just think about Henry VI, he got coronated, defeated, went into coma, used, captured, freed, reinstated as king, recaptured, dethroned, freed, reinstated, cheated, recaptured on and on. All that happening while he was doing almost nothing(his wife and cousins, brothers doing the most).
-
On one hand, it's extremely satisfying seeing how effective Henry V was at gaining land. On the other, it's extremely painful watching his son lose it all.
-
Was there a single man, woman, or child in England who DIDN'T capture King Henry VI?
-
Drinking challenge: take a shot every time Henry VI gets captured or when the Lancastrians get clapped by the Yorkists
-
I've finally found out why there was so many king Henry's. The name Henry literally means "ruler of the home."
-
Last time I was this early, Henry VI was still not captured.
-
This was one of the craziest conflicts in world history.
-
I’ve always found it interesting that in the Middle Ages an army was often in the low thousands, while in ancient time they could swell to the many tens of thousands for even the smaller nations.
-
Fun fact about the Nevilles: They were one of the few aristocratic families in England that decended in the male line from an Anglo-Saxon noble (a northern noble called Uhtred).
-
'Fun' fact: More Englishmen died at Towton than died on the first day of the Battle of The Somme in WW1. It was the bloodiest day in all of English history by far.
-
Lancasters: It's over, York, I have the high ground!
-
War Of Roses: York Vs Lancaster Winner: Tudors
-
Fun fact about Lambert Simnel, after his capture by Henry VII he was actually taken to Royal Court, were he would serve as a kitchen hand and later a Falconier all the way to 1525. Not the worst fate for a defeated Royal Pretender
-
The real life game of thrones... about damn time.
-
"A Lancaster always pay his debts!" Thank you for the gift, and Merry Christmas for the K&G team!
-
I love how Edward led the relief for the side attack. Could you imagine how his men would’ve been reverent to him for his guts, because the culture of humanity was still so bloody, a move like that just screams valor.
