    In reality 11,000 out of the 15,000 troops under longshanks were Welsh (not that they were eager to fight the scots, as Wales had been conquered by Longshanks only a few years before, they were forced to fight for England, and just before the battle, there was a mutiny among them, the English killed some of them). The battle had 2000 deaths on each side, despite the English longbow and the Scots being outnumbered 2 to 1.

    Longshanks was called”The Hammer of the Scots” for a reason. He never lost a battle to them when he was in direct command of his troops. Also he wasn’t a pagan or a tyrant of a King as portrayed. He wasn’t a nice guy, but he wasn’t any worse than any other King. England actually did well under his rule.

    The Bruce wasn’t at the battle (there is no record he actually met Wallace), there were no Irish and the Scots fought in a fixed defensive formation. They repelled a number of cavalry charges before being undone by the Welsh longbow men.
    The Scots defeat meant there was no chance of a Baliol return to the Scottish throne. If that had happened, Robert the Bruce couldn’t have taken the throne.
    For better or worse, this defeat made the path of the Bruce easier.

      Just came here from History Marche, so Wallace had his spearmen arranged in circular Chiltrons with archers inbetween. The English cavalry easily dealt with the Scottish cavalry then swept away the Scottish arches.
      The English cavalry did try to probe the Chiltrons but Edward called them off, then the Welsh Longbow men were brought up who fired into the Scottish ranks with ease.
      After Scottish formations broke down, English infantry and cavalry charged and the rest of the Scots fled into the woods behind.

    I love the way the entire English army has been walking around all morning on soil that's been soaked in pitch and nobody noticed anything unusual. "Hey sergeant, why is the ground so sticky." "That's Scotland, lad, it's just like there here." Also, did someone at a neighboring village just happen to have 5,000 barrels of pitch just waiting around? What were they using it for?
    They did get one thing partly right: the English archers won the battle at Falkirk. But the Scottish cavalry didn't run away, they were run off the field by the much more numerous and better armed and armored English knights.

      A lot of times they'd wear a token, like the night before everyone on one side would be told to wear a ribbon of white or black cloth on their left arm. Also, as noted, they fought in pretty tight formations, battles weren't a mass disorganized scrum like we see in this movie. The friendlies were the people facing the same you were and trying to kill the enemy, and the enemies were the ones facing you and trying to kill you and your friends. And the formations would have banners or a leader with a coat of arms everyone would know.
      That being said, mistaken identifications and friendly fire incidents have always been a risk on battlefields from prehistory right through today.

      You can't really fight with a 15' spear and a big shield like that, you need both hands on the spear. And they needed the long spears to have any chance of surviving against cavalry. Some ancient pikemen used small shields but they'd be useless against arrows.

    The account of this betrayal is fictional. The Scottish light cavalry, numbering around 500, engaged with the English heavy cavalry but were soon overwhelmed and fled. This retreat exposed the Scottish archers, who were subsequently routed by the English cavalry. As a result, Wallace’s four schiltrons (formations of spearmen) were left isolated.
    The English cavalry initially failed to break through these schiltrons, prompting King Edward I to deploy his longbowmen. The English archers unleashed volley after volley of thousands of arrows, causing devastating casualties among the Scots. An English commander at the battle remarked that "The fallen Scots lay on the ground like snow in winter."
    Once enough Scottish spearmen had been cut down, gaps appeared in the weakened schiltrons. Edward I then sent in his heavy cavalry again, which broke through the Scottish formations, leading to a full rout. The Scottish army retreated, forcing Wallace to flee. He subsequently resigned as Guardian of Scotland and went into self-imposed exile in Europe, embarking on a diplomatic mission to France and Rome.

    I know this movie gets a lot of stick for its historical accuracy but from a movie point of view it’s a master piece. If they stook to the historical view of William Wallace it would have ended up like Alexander 2004. I think Mel Gibson got it spot on and it’s made a hell of a lot of money for Scotland. If you look at all historical references to William Wallace and the Scottish wars of independence, a documentary has a figure of a man with long hair with blue paint, you play games like total war the Scottish units are waring kilts and waring blue paint, they even have a statue outside Stirling next to Wallace’s memorial that looks the double of Mel Gibson. The bloke put Wallace on the map like know one has done to a character in history. And if you actually delve into the history of Wallace he sort of shouldn’t have been as popular as he was and probs wasn’t until Braveheart was made.

    I thought back then if Wallace wasn't betrayed, he would have won the match "IN THE MOVIE"
    But then, The King had a TON, again... A TON of Reserves in his disposal. This is the Royal Army we're talking about, not just some mustered up troops to fight some rebellion... No...
    First, He didn't engaged his Heavy Cavalry & his Long Bow men are on a standby. They can easily pick apart the Scottish troops as shown in the movie.
    Even if the Scottish Nobles didn't betray Wallace, they'll still end up losing as they're Light Cavalry fighting a Heavy Cavalry. We know the English had a superior Cavalry advantage and they'll end up getting destroyed. It was a rather smart move of getting the bribed from King Edward I than joining Wallace in Battle.
    Even if the Irish Betrayed the English Army. They'd still not win this battle. They only way the Scottish wins if they fought in a Guerilla Manner and kill the King.
