Polish hussars had the same ammount of weapons. Instead of a bow, they had a gun 17th century. They had longer lance. Instead of great mace they had different type of sword and regular sword or curved

and mongols have a gengis khan who fights for a thousand warriors :v

When most of the weight is carry by a horse, you can bring everything XD

Find a new joke format.

That's standard ancient warrior would have. Spear as main weapon and sword as secondary. It's their archery that is extra.

I would too if I had an entire Lamellar set

As a historian myself I'd be thrilled to use stuff like this, far more exciting than writing papers. 💯

@@fredrickpoggi5493 But where do you go learn historical weapon techniques that’s not just guessing from HEMA + the old texts.

@@fredrickpoggi5493 A historian should see my video "A conquistador refutes the Metatron on Samurais VS Spaniards."

@@WellBattle6 Those techniques depending on what culture they are from can still be learned from current populations that have kept the practice alive.

He is so on point handling weapon on horseback.

Naqara drums

I dont know how u still get scared by loud noises.

That horse can eat anything, far easy for the logistics

You're that guy who does videos of Age of Skirmish AKA Age of Polo Sport featuring lightning strikes without storms, and solar panel battering rams.

With two hands in a full overhead swing lol. Went all out haha

Probably took them a lot of retries, but still amazing nonetheless. I've been quite surprised by how skilled he is. It's rare for documentaries like this to actually use people with actual abilities to perform what is being described. This guy can properly use weapons and skillfully ride the horse as well.

@@HendyVelarius One time I paid to use a horse while wearing conquistador armour. The lady traiiner laughed at me when my helmet kept sliding off over my face. I'm too poor for a custom one.

Noob, where are the your next videos?

@@MayurKulkarni Had to take a short break, uploading one this weekend :)

Fancy seeing you here! Any chance of seeing a discussion on the Mongol forces or the clash between Eastern Europeans and Mongols on your channel?

they changed it sadly

@@marc-antoinemarcoux697 Was to be expected.

@@marc-antoinemarcoux697 now it's "HANDS ON HISTORY - MONGOL HEAVY CAVALRY", what was it before?

There are also accounts of them wearing Jurchen face armor and Khipchak Masks though it could be Khipchak warriors riding with the mongol units since the Khipchaks are also skilled Calvary men especially Kublai Khans personal guard of made up of both mongols and Cuman Khipchaks And Alans

Yeah, you can't just raid and skirmish against armored opponents forever. The lack of organization you create in fast, 'blitzkrieg' like attacks, needs to be capitalized by raw power.

Similar principle to artillery in modern wars. You can use as much artillery as you want, but it’s mostly to soften up the enemy so that you can actually charge in with your mechanized and infantry groups with less resistance.

The mace was very common weapon for Mongolian and Jing army in war against Song China（and Chinese also use the for both side had many heave armour army）and had tons of these maces heads artifacts dug out in China but its a short weapon and far more shorter than maces in video

suspect the mace was more of a jin/jurchen thing. wouldn't be surprising if Mongolians incorporated it after conquering Jin, similar to how they added arabian trebuchets to the arsenal.

You need some anti-armor weapon though

No you are wrong. The great mace was used in Asia. That's for sure and yes Mongole used it there first.

The persians got defeated.....by ponies?!

@@SIGNOR-G yes because ponies are younger and so move faster than aged horses.

@@user-yd9kz8tv8q i can only imagine the faces of all those defeated by the mongols army riding ponies

The food at that time was few, in comparison to our american way of life, with huge portions every 3 hour. People at that time were very tiny. If you see a bed or a door at castles, I might say people were 5 feet tall. So a pony is a good war partner.

@@alexschaeller8881 It's not about the food, the horses on the Mongolian tundra were of a different breed than that of the American plains. They were much closely related to the horses of the Arabian peninsula with which they interbreeded. They were small but boy they were fast and as durable as mules are. On the other note most Asian people are much smaller than the rest of us, and it's true that they rationed while they were on the move, but when they conquered big cities or territories the feasts would last days or weeks, so its not like they were short on food either. On a famous note on the sacking of Khwarezmia, they allegedly piled mountains of cats, mountains of dogs, of man, woman and children. They were tidy that way :).

They where my main in AoEII im interested if they will be in AoE4. They shurely look interesting. Mangudai for the winn

@@95l0uis I was really hoping to play with them during stress test. Mildly surprised with MS decision but I believe that it will be a super fun civ. I used to play with Lakota on AoE 3 and huns, cumans and mongols are super fun for me on aoe 2... Now I am anxious for the end of the month 😀🤠

@@PhotonTrooperGaming They are very fun to play, easily my favourite civ in the closed beta and I had no interest in them at the start. I think you'll be really happy with them.

agreed chinese secondary

So it's like Fox only, no items, Final Destination.

And they put their helmets on their heads for maximum protection

So that's why I haven't been holding cavalry charges...

Well the game will have these kind of videos

Needs more beard.

Yes. I don't know enough about the archology behind this so maybe researchers know of longer ones too, but the "famous" Mongolian mace that was found was short and one-handed as you point out.

The mace we used in video is a reconstruction of actual findings. You can find it in Gorelik's publication about Mongol Army.

There were both one hand and 2 hand maces

Lol that exactly like what Hindu mythology characters/warriors used.

It's totally fascinating how nomadic people from the steppe could topple almost every kingdom and empire in Eurasia in a single lifetime. We'll never see anything like it again, but it's an amazing part of history, especially since they went on to administrate it well, despite little experience of bureaucracy!

Yep, it really hooks me into history as there arent that many historical documentaries available widely.

Aaaaaarti! :D

@@FloosWorld_AoE

Damn 😯❤️🔥

In all caps wtf

@@derwal1543 trying out different versions I suppose. Or it was a placeholder they forget to change lol

"NOZOOM DINGDING" ... lmao

Actually, they did. Wait for the next part :)

Not really possible during a horse clash and will often habe little effect because of armor. Hoocks were really for hoocking and slashing.

They have over 3 hours of this. There will be enough new to unlock ingame

They should, it was the core of the army. The "Keshiks" were the most skilled warriors of the army. Their main duty was to train new units at the field until they all mastered it and ready for battle. In other words, it was the special force that was used like a knight on the battlefield and trained units on the training ground.

@@aslof1069 yup, I would them having keshik instead of knights

we would need the Byzantine empire to be added as well, i feel like.

@@ValerietheLovelyDeadlyItalian I feel they are gonna go for themed dlc like total war. Ottomans and Byzantines, Japanese and Koreans and so on.

We Already Have one Turk Faction ( Delhi Sultanate ). Although most of their armies consisted of Hindus . The ruling elite were Turks .

@@nvmtt1403 early ottomans 1299-1400 would be really nice.

@@bt7348 early ottoman? I thought it called as seljuk
