Content

At last! This one was a nightmare to edit. Having footage with three different video formats didn't help.

Not quite an architectural discussion, not quite an advert, not quite a review, not quite a travelogue, not quite an interview, and not quite a dissection of history. It is a video that navigates through many genres, does it get lost? You decide!

Thrones of Britannia - a computer game that bothers with historical research!

I was tempted to a junket with the promise of food and castles and games, and I got to interview the head creator of a new game. Support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Lindybeige Thrones of Britannia is of course not a history lesson, but a game. However, it is good to see that the creators have clothed the soldiers in period-appropriate clothing, and created the various factions that players can lead by basing them on feasible historical counterparts, albeit with a bit of massaging for the sake of game balance. Buy the music - the music played at the end of my videos is now available here: https://lindybeige.bandcamp.com/track/the-mandeville-march More weapons and armour videos here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCA860ECD7F894424 Lindybeige: a channel of archaeology, ancient and medieval warfare, rants, swing dance, travelogues, evolution, and whatever else occurs to me to make. ▼ Follow me...
