You don't raise the sails (that would set them against the yards), you set the sails. That order is followed by a series of activities not shown here. The Battle is very accurate and shows things rarely seen. Forces ample, the Spanish ship uses stern chasers (guns facing aft in the captain's cabin) and the purate ship raking her. That is, each gun fires through the stern with the shot slicing lengthwise down the ship, which offered little protection. Nelson used this at Trafalgar. Then, of course, the impacts of a full broadside on man and ship. All very well done.
Plenty of times even armed merchant ships or fireboats/ships attacked ''battleships'' with great success. Check Greek Revolution naval engages.. You just need skill and be desperate enough.
Ships take a long time to turn or move in any direction especially large ones like that spanish one (also I'm guessing from this scene that it was a surprise attack maybe after a deal has been struck and they got betrayed and shot upon though i never watched the show so I cannot be certain. My question instead would be: Why didn't those 2 other ships start moving around the big ship after they shot their first broadside, in order to counter the big ship slowly turning and give themselves more time to fire?
@@davidmorgan6896 ok I was replying to someone who thought the acting was terrible and didn't want to repeat the title. As a tall ship sailor myself I will tell you they took a lot of liberties with the ships and sailing scenes. But I agree as a historical drama it was very good. Which one is best is very personal. For me that's Band of Brothers.
@@ericboyle8296 The New York Times paid a historian of the period to watch the first series and find fault. Apparently, their teeth are too nice. That's it. Band of Brothers was great too.
That moment when the doors open and the Walrus is looking at 56 cannons pointed directly at them 🔥
That music ruined this otherwise great historical clip
When Spain ruled the waves 😀
The Spain ruled in quantity, not quality, they were horrible warriors.
@@CaptainRockoBD yeah you can see in Cartagena de Indias with Blas de León where We had inferior quantity men hahahahahah
@@CaptainRockoBD sea warriors, ok, but not warriors. That obsesion with puting more cannons to the point ships were clumpsy i find it really funny.

16th, 17th and 18th centuries... Everybody gansta until Spaniards show their broadsides...

I like that scene when you hear a whistle noise and that fort or something gets blasted
Don't mess with a battleship ☝🏻

Why didn’t the Spanish ship immediately move to deliver a broadside?

Cuz well it takes time to start move a ship and set sails. These were also pirate ship so they only had Manpower to shoot cannons or sail. Not both
@@IGetWicked You know what I never thought about the lack of manpower and yes it does actually make sense now, thank you for the insight!
WOW...that acting is just....terrible. What a dumpster fire it must be if this is the best scene.
The series wasn't bad. Typical clickbait title plenty of better scenes it was a long series.
Typical troll comment by a nobody pretending to be an expert. Go away
@@ericboyle8296 'Wasn't bad'? It's one of the best TV series ever made, managing to be dramatic and exciting without taking historical liberties.
