Excellent commentary. It would be nice to show aerial views - so that the lay of the land, position of forces, etc. etc. is more easily discerned.
google earth it
@@simontemplar1 I meant it would be good to see the animations from an aerial view.
Zulu warriors besides their shield carried two assegais one a long one for throwing a shorter one for stabbing along with a club known as a knobkierie. They were trained to engage the enemy in pairs.
Shaka Zulu trained them to use the shorter spear and use it to thrust into their enemy instead of throwing a long spear thar may miss their enemy. The Romans used the same technique with the short sword to thrust from behind their shields.
Yes, shame the dude was something of a nutter, his military reforms were very clever. Mind you, there is some debate about this.
Your animation and commentary are excellent. Thanks.
Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed
Each rifled soldier could have used 2 6 shot pistols for close range.
Not bad for a computer voice.
Thanks un cazzo😅
@@arnoldbioursckii6639I've never understood why the British didn't have Gatling guns with them.
So windy that rifles were tumbling through the air.
Perhaps they're _air_ rifles?
The battle foretold the defeat at Kambula. Ending the winning streak of the Zulus.
Or ending the buffoonery of the Reds.
I would like to complain about the lack of diversity in the Zulu ranks
😂😂😂
DEI Hard 2
Not true, they had different tribes, dialects, genders and ethnic backgrounds plus a resolute determination to fight foreign invaders. But you would not know that because you were focused only on complexion.
Grow a pair. Just don't be offended when you don't see diverse black people in ancient and medieval Europe. If this was about the Roman invasion of Scotland, the amount of black picts and Romans in a modern day dei production would be utterly ridiculous and insulting. Just so you know, I don't need to see white Zulus to make me feel better.
Hahaha, best comment by a mile. Note the noddy, who didn't get the joke.
The irony, scorning Zulu marksmanship only to have a horse shot under and an officer killed next to him. That was a near Sedgwick incident.
The Irony of laughing at the British when they just come and wipe you out forever.
They couldn't hit an elephant at this dist...
@@FatherofheroesandheroinesMind I think the distance would have been consideably longer in the states!
This was one of the most engrossing sims yet. Well done.
Communication is really really important. Doctor Stone is a Japanese Cartoon. He talks about how Communication is the most important thing in a battle.
Thanks !
The British seemed to underestimate the strength and tenacity of their enemy
Actually no, they knew what they were up against, followed orders anyway.
"The British seemed to underestimate the strength and tenacity of their enemy" ---- AGAIN.
@@CaptainJimNoss it’s those damn bag pipes 😂
I would like to complain about the lack of diversity in the British ranks
Who gives a *****
@@jonathanraven5939 I give up . Who does give a @@@@?
Likewise I would complain that given the immense immigration into South Africa that the lack of diversity in the Zulu Forces appears unbalanced and unrepresentative of the population proportionally speaking.
Where is the diversity amongst the Zulu ranks.
Morning humor imo.
Damn how on earth did you manage to get those two horses shot and then have wood escape on his own. That must be quite difficult.
You can change the unit size in the preferences file ;)
Excellent!
Piet 'Hlobane' Uys , Dirkie's brother died here. My wife's grandmother's grandfather.
The marching audio is not boots on earth, it's boots on cobbles or other pavement. Otherwise very nice work.
I saw the original film with Michael Caine that's was just jaw dropping but honestly u should make a remake of it im sure that it will b awesome great graphics 👌
Yeah, the remake could be race swapped with blacks playing the British and whites playing the zulus because, ya know, DIVERSITY! 🤷♂😆
All fluid gender cast ?
You mean the movie Zulu ?. That started with the battle at Isandhwana where all the British were slaughtered then moved to Rorkes Drift Jan 1870. These battles were after that.
Great channel by the way. Good idea.
Thanks a lot :)
An interesting video. I'm glad I wasn't there.
Moral of the story here is, if you demand a military response from the entire Zulu nation, you'd better be well led, well prepared and well armed.
As n MANY Gatling guns.
This style of warfare is up close and personal. As is most warfare!!!!!
Why did they order everyone to fire at poor old Will?
Spectacular vid👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much 😀
HTF can that many zulus surprise that many soldiers?Lookouts anyone?
same prejudice that bought Custer his ticket in 1876.
nice made video, thank you. But what are these greenish things flying in the air?
Locusts probably.
GREAT GRAPHICS!
It makes History come alive!
What's with all of the debris flying through the air?
Yeah, looks like someone is mowing the grass on a very windy day
Call in the A10 warthog. Lol.
This is like a man and a woman getting in to a boxing ring and the winner going on to win the gold medal.
Seemed like the Red Coats greatly underestimated the emy, and had horriable scouting. How hard is it to keep up with 20K?
Agreed. Musta been all those Planet of the Apes sounds.
People don’t understand that the Impi was the standard operating procedure for most of Africa. The men fought,the women looked after the households,and the children looked after the livestock.
As the men were only warriors their numbers were less than those of the women so they had two or more wives. This went on for many hundreds of years creating a race of men who were fearless ,doughty warriors,as we see in the number of successful Black Boxers. The downside is that they are genetically keyed to be more aggressive and to treat women as chattels,something we in the West refuse to accept despite the evidence which is overwhelming.
Many of the Zulus were only part-time warriors. They spent most of their time hunting and farming.

Never finished HS did you?
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 They did not farm. That was womens work.
Don't be called will on the Battle field 😮
I think we are gonna need a bigger boat for these negos.
Evelyn Wood. Sounds like shorthand training program for court transcription staff.
That Colour Sergeant, there right at the end...sounded awfully familiar....
The zulus lost,because the British never threw their spears back !! 😅😅😅😅
Yes that's the one, ✌
this is like a bad horror movie script. lets all split up, run upstairs, get killed off 1 at a time and make sure that we aren't paying attention to the dangers around us so it's even easier for them to sneak up on us.
Yeah, and then seeing the zombie horde down in the valley. This was a very engrossing sim.
Absolutely junk scouting. I wonder if the landscape was that open in real life. You could see for dozens of miles.
@@travisdonaldstanley6420 It was really sunny...so they were wearing the darkest shades possible...
Excellent storytelling.
Many thanks!
Nice work except for the video editing, specifically the debris floating through the screen. Adds NOTHING to the presentation.
I am British, but was rooting for the Zulu........such brave men
We won in the end
Degenerste
I am Zulu, but was rooting for the British........amadoda anesibindi anjalo
Hell ! Check out the lack of DEI in the Zulu impis.
Lack of diversity was their strength.
You can't see DEI you mo8on.
Come on boys, jump in the van! Awoooooo!
Imagine what it was like to feel the ground well before you heard the enemy approaching? 20K? Wow.
And once you saw them...they were a fearsome sight...and didnt know of the word retreat
Chelmsford was a lousy commander. Dividing your forces in enemy territory is asking for trouble.
Senseless war and death..
Now we just have a senseless Generation Z.
@@geordie114Good one👍
Just humans competing for territory. Territory is life.
Where are the bayonets?
They forgot them lol
Why use metric distances? The British didn't during the 19th century.
Because it is 2024
Because it is 2024 and people use Metric far more
I am 120 miles from London and have never see distance measures in kilometres in the UK ever
Neither Zulus or Brits use or used metric - which is French
So, no artillery in the battles ?
Why does it look like GTA, Johannesburg?
They kinda look like they are related. Lmfao
AI has come a long way. What's next?
Dover stopsmallboats
How brave (or stupid) must you be to stand and face 100,000 attacking Zulus?
The Generation Z`s we have wouldn`t stand, you would just see a brown arsed streak running away,wondering whether to wear a pink or rainbow dress.
20,000
Английские войска цже в Украине За ними на подходе уже и Францйцузские------
Lieutenant - is prouncned LEF- tenant NOT Loo -tenant. These were British Troops - not Amercian.
You would have only one country flag flying per column.
I remember when that happened
I Have total War... how do i get this?
btw The Staffords wore Red Tunics
It’s the khartum and Zulu mod for napoleon total war
"Lootenant"?
it is actually correct because a Lootenant stood in Loo of a superior officer. Although i feel the makers of the video may not be British
If not "LOOtenant", then how do you pronounce "Lieutenant"?
@@jeremymerrifield7244 Lieu means 'instead of' in French.
@@rdelrosso1973 A Briton would never say Lootenant.
Evil pirate empire back then and still broke evil empire with clowns on the helm
thank you . ( 2024 / June / 09 )
Just curious, which TW game is this?
game is Napoleon Total War and I'm using the Khartum and Zulu Mod
There goes the lobsters
They weren't welcomed then.
And ……
Do you understand why Britain needed to carve out more territory beyond their own small island ?
@@I.M.A.Panther3619 yes I do I uderstand, and appreciate it.
How about less AI and more human creatoin?
Could you skip the kilometers please? Otherwise carry on.
do the same now in Africa.
12:51 First movie i ever saw was ZULU the sound of the Zulus attacking Rorke's Drift shouting Zuuu zuuu zuuu Brave men holding out against the odds never forget and will always watch it when it pop's up on the box
Yes its a great movie
Nope but it sure was fun .
War is soooooo exciting ... !
Period correct 🎉for period😢
Hum , load of rubbish. Yes Zulu did surprise and kill many horsemen, but this was not a battle more a reconnaissance in force which was surprised and lost many horsemen, but lead to the TOTAl defeat of the Zulu’s . This was a one sided war with only one silly mistake. Ps why do you keep playing that ridiculous words from the film Zulu by a sergeant, who in reality was the complete opposite of the actor in the film
It’s known as the battle of Holbane.
which total war is this
I assume it's empire total war
Napoleon total war, im using the Kartum and Zulu mod too
These are great graphics though....must have been hard yakka trudging all day
Hlobane, pronounced " schlobarnie".
Hi
Que mentalidad tan preponente de los ingleses, se sent+ian dueños de cualquier espacio que les gustara y más si temnía tierras abundantes y minas igual que occidente con los pueblos nacionales ya que llegaron con la avaricio del oro pero pagaron con sangre sus fechoias.
The Spanish in the Americas?
There was nothing in Zululand that the British wanted except for the Zulus to stop attacking and enslaving their neighbouring tribes.
And the French colonialists?
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 They were a threat to the Empire...and my dear Aunt Victoria was having none of it...
I am amazed at the bravery by the Zulu!
The Zulus were the true heroes, charging the British modern army with just spears and shields. It was a total massacre but they kept on charging. They have earned my respect and my salutes.
Now go to Croydon …
Why Eric. Prayer tell
@@jeremymerrifield7244 lol ..I’ll let ya have a guess.
@@Eric-qm5xw Zuluuuuuuuuus
What were the war planners thinking when sending insufficient troops to slaughter against overwhelming enemy?
And remember since the American Revolutionary War the ideals was blacks would never make good soldiers tell the British that in this battle LOL
😇😇😇
I feel sorry for the horse…and embarrassed at what happened so that we could all play cricket and drink warm beer 😢…I blame William the Conqueror 🤨
You got to be kidding? This is a joke??
Empire wasn't so great was it?
A third of the globe.
Just what in blazes did the zulus did to them to warrant all this sh- t,kind of reminds me of 1776
The Zulus had an Empire….only one Empire is allowed
By the Empire
The Zulus were aggressive and expansionist. They tried to muscle in on British territory and were taught a lesson. They have been quiet ever since.
I heard the bantu (Zulu) had been murdering their way down Africa for hundreds of years. Killing off the original tribesmen as they went. When the Dutch arrived the purchased land from the Zulu who had recently won the land from its ancient inhabitants.
@@albert7311 that's a rhetoric used to justify boer expansion in african land. Those scarcely populated tribes got assimilated and integrated into the larger tribes and that's why zulus adopted clicking tongues from those tribes which wouldn't have made sense if they murdered them,lol
@@naradaian Victoria was not amused when she heard that she had a competitor in deepest Africa...end of
Great show.
Historically all that was for Rhodes and his public school chums and Jewish merchants. Rather like we are seeing now globally.
Thanks!
Yes...then they moved onto the Germans...then the Argies...and finally, last but not least...the previously undefeated Miners
The audio sucks. Trump sounds like Daffy Duck
Subdued,. You mean murdered.
On the Serengeti, and everywhere else, the survival of the fittest and the cruel un-caring natural selection process is in effect. Guns vs low grade metal ore spears happened. Yet the strong natives preserved despite the cost of way-to-many young men.
Great Britain exhausted the natural resources of their island nation. They needed resources beyond their isle to survive and to feed their people.
They knew what they needed to do to survive. Yet people like you want to shout …” oh how awful, dreadful and inhumane.”
This was all about survival.
That’s an no holds bared situation.
Nah - it was an Colonial war and the Zulus were very very good at fighting it - it was never easy or a cake walk for the Brits
Killed in warfare is not murder
@@scouseaussie1638 They were trying to take away thier land.
Should really learn how to pronounce the names properly!
My apologies the narration was generated using AI
Apparently the zulus had british rifles (captured) or black market---not the shields and spears they had at the1st encounters
Need a British accent when telling these stories. Otherwise it just sounds like a standard non emotional National Geographic's programme.
Yes I agree
Yes a proper Cockney accent will do the trick
@@nab1uk Ma name...is not...Michile...Kine
Was it really important to invade Zulus
Their constant stealing of cattle across a border and refusal to accept our hegemony aka Queen Victoria was what led to these raids…they liked stealing cattle from other people more than they loved peace or diplomacy
stick your kilometres😡😡
Can’t watch it too much rubbish floating around
Inglesi contro zulu
Disgusting, absolutely disgraceful.
boogaloooo
you one of them?
Friendly Zulu.Thwy were beaten and forced slaves. They had little choice.
By other African tribes, yes
@@PureTexan sometimes, nowhere near always.
@@harrybond1485i never said “always”. However, I disagree with sometimes. History would show MOST of the time haha
In today’s digital age this video is rubbish
