Dear Patron,

It's been an exciting August, with the release of both the Hundred Days Episode 2 and Alexander's Opis Mutiny Speech Remastered. But while summer may be drawing to an end (here at least), production is ramping up! Here's the lowdown on everything we're working on, including another project reveal...

Production Updates

The Medway Raid

We're deep into our animation work on the next Patreon release, which will see Dutch ships carry out a stunning strike against the heart of the English sea power. Here are a few peeks at our latest work.

Hundred Days: Waterloo

Production on the next chapter of our Hundred Days series is also underway. This one is dedicated to one iconic battle, the climax of the Napoleonic Wars... Waterloo. You already had a glimpse of the battlefield at the end of our latest episode. Here are a few more shots.

Later this autumn you can also expect more WW2 action, with the releases of WW2: 1940 (Part 1) and ULTRA Episode 3, as well as our complete Life of Nelson!

... and finally...

First Crusade Reboot

Many of our you will be familiar with our First Crusade documentary - a dramatic account of how knights from Western Europe hacked their way to Jerusalem in a brutal three-year campaign. Although we're very proud of this video, our visual techniques and resources have improved in the 9 years since it was made - so we decided to give it a make-over !

Now, working with talented animator Rob Nield, we're rebuilding the entire video with new maps and graphics. Expect this one around December 2026. A few sneak peeks...

Alexander Speech 'Behind the Scenes'

Want to find out how Martin Klekner made our remastered Alexander the Great video? Martin's made a brilliant 'Behind the Scenes' documentary, explaining his painstaking research process and design decisions, and introducing you to some historical characters you might not have noticed the first time around.

Will u release the hundred days part 2 vid soundtrack soon or later? Keep up the excellent work

Giorgi Omadze

So many interesting videos coming i can't wait. But what i see there is mistakes in first crusade images specifically about kingdom of georgia in first image it's completely absent when it was part of eastern orthodox church with its own patriarchy and one of the first chrstian kingdom in history and on second image georgia same as entire Caucasus is depicted as part of seljuk empire when it never was part of seljuk empier in second half of 11th century georgia paying tribute to seljuks but it was never conquered or taken by seljuks it was independent kingdom in that period so there is two mistakes in first and second images of first crusade

Why WW2 release extended again?

EpicHistoryTV

Thank you, and yes! Next time we are preparing new sound tracks for release, make sure to vote for it!

EpicHistoryTV

It's a large amount of work, and we don't want to rush it. We also need to clear some other projects first, then we will start to focus properly on this series.

EpicHistoryTV

Thank you for the corrections! We will take another look at the map.

Stuart Carver

I hope this means that the crusades series will, at some point, be continued as we’ve had precious little medieval history on the channel! I hope you don’t remake many more things after this though to be honest, besides Waterloo there’s not much I really thought needed it per se.

who many parts will there be for the first crusade Remaster?

Lord John 🇵🇱💚

This is awesome!!!! Medway! Nelson! The 1st Crusade revisited!!! & so many more this is going to be a really amazing Autumn!!!! & We Patrons of The Old Guard wouldn’t miss it for the world! 💚💚

EpicHistoryTV

Thank you John! Your enthusiasm is always appreciated!

A few questions about the WW2 videos 1) Do you plan to make videos covering the events between 1918–1930 that lead to the events of WW2? 2) Do you plan to make videos about the aftermath of WW2 and if so, how many videos and what will it cover? 3) Will special events such as Operation Barbarossa, Pearl Harbor and D-Day get their own separate and detailed videos?

EpicHistoryTV

1. No. 2. Yes, but you must await the special announcement, coming later this year! 3. Possibly, but only after we have completed the main series. The main goal is to create a comprehensive, global strategic summary of the war. That's quite enough for us to take on for the moment!

Crusades remastered, masterstroke!

Franco Curotto

The 3D renders for Medway look beautiful! I'm liking this new style of video production

All projects look interesting. I think I’ve ask this question before. But do you plan on covering the independence of the Spanish viceroyalties like New Spain?? Greetings from Mexico. Would love to see those videos. Your content it’s always great.

So, does that mean that release for ww2 1939 on Youtube would be extended as well?

EpicHistoryTV

Thank you! No current plans, but those would certainly be interesting topics.

Admiral Sith

Cant wait to see the battle of Waterloo

Yash Joseph

I was wondering if it was possible for you guys to move the “Letters from the Front” video from the chronological Napoleon Wars playlist further down the list since it “spoils” certain events of the Peninsular War that are covered in later videos in the list?

Jay Williams

How long will the 1940 video be? so much to cover in 1940 hoping it will be a long video.

EpicHistoryTV

The plan is to cover the remaining war years in two videos each. Indeed, so much to cover!

Geraint Thatcher

You should cover the Naval War on Lake Ontario whoops I mean Lake America 😉

Rich Porter

Oh man! I can’t wait for all of those to primer!

Lord John 🇵🇱💚

Can already hear the powerful voice of “Charles” narrating the stories of the “Lion Heart” 💪🏻💚

WE NEED THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION SERIES BACK!
