======= "Winged Hussars" SONG STORY =======
During the siege of Vienna in 1683, the situation for the citizens and the small defending force was desperate.
140 000 soldiers of the Ottoman Empire was slowly but surely tearing the cities defences apart by digging a tunnel under the moat and city walls.
The plan was to detonate a series of mines under the wall to make it collapse and use the rubble as a walkway into the city itself.
It was truly a race against time since nobody knew if the christian coalition called ”The Holy League”, under the command of the Polish king John III Sobieski would make it in time.
They managed to arrive just in time to save Vienna, and the most fearsome of the warriors among them were the Winged Hussars!
======= "Winged Hussars" LYRICS =======
When the winged hussars arrived
A cry for help in time of need, await relief from holy league
60 days of siege, outnumbered and weak
Sent a message to the sky, wounded soldiers left to die
Will they hold the wall or will the city fall
Dedication
Dedication
They’re outnumbered 15 to one
And the battle´s begun
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down the mountainside
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down they turned the tide
As the days are passing by and as the dead are piling high
No escape and no salvation
Trenches to explosive halls are buried deep beneath the walls
Plant the charges there and watch the city fear
Desperation
Desperation
It’s a desperate race against the mine
And a race against time
Cannonballs are coming down from the sky
Janissaries are you ready to die?
We will seek our vengeance eye for an eye
You’ll be stopped upon the steps of our gate
On this field you’re only facing our hate
But back home the Sultan’s sealing your fate
We remember
In September
That’s the night Vienna was freed
We made the enemy bleed!
Stormclouds, fire and steel
Death from above make their enemy kneel
Shining armour and wings
Death from above, it’s an army of kings
We remember
In September
When the winged hussars arrived

the Polish King Jan Sobieski launched the biggest cavalry charge in history 18000 horsemen and 5000 winged hussars as the tip of the sword , the ottomans fled head over heel, Long live Poland and Lithuania without King Sobieski, Europe would probably have been lost, Love from Sweden
Well I don't think Europe would've been lost, but it would've been a big hit

The siege begun 14th of July Austrian and Germans have been fighting a 2 front war against the French in the west and the Muslims in the East. The German Austrian army where outnumbered 10 to one and fought a delaying battle around Vienna for 2 month mounting Ottoman casualties during the siege to 48.544 death.
On the Day of the Battle 50.000 Germans, had been fighting a Ottoman counter offensive (Still over 100 000 strong) since 04.00 in the morning when they spotted the counter attack. Trying to coordinate with the polish king for hours (since he was the formal leader) the Germans halted the Ottoman counter offensive and beat them back into the direction of the approaching polish forces. The 3000 strong winged hussars spearheaded a 18 000 strong Calvary attack at 17:00 that broke into the fleeing Ottoman forces beating them for good. The poles had a big part in the beating of the Ottoman siege but to claim they won the battle is just not right. I must have been a magnificent Charge and all but to give the Victory credit to the poles was a calculated move to a peace the Polish Lithuanian King since there was still a war to be fought in the west against the French.

@@maddog8004 The battle was won by the combined forces of the Holy Roman Empire and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
Let's be clear: Poland under the command of Jan III Sobieski kept its promise and defended the Holy League from Ottomans, which resulted in Islam not being the major religion in Europe and in exchange for that heroic act we have been betrayed by our allies (Prussia, Habsburg Empire, Russia) and Poland as a country ceased to exist for 123 years because of partitions.

There was a moment during the battle, they say that spontaneously allied armies stopped battling just to watch the way Polish hussars charge
It was kinda like the rohirrims charge at minas tirith, but in rl.

The largest cavalry charge in history: almost EIGHTEEN THOUSAND horses. Can you imagine what that must have been like, how the ground must have shook? No wonder so many of the Ottoman troops broke and ran.
In comparison, in the film Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, the Rohirrim charge at the Battle of Pelennor Fields consisted of only 6000 riders and it was massive in scale. I can't imagine a cavalry charge 3 times as big.

1)Rumors circulate that Sultan Osman 2 cried out of helplessness hearing about how the Polish hussars smashed his armies
2) a lot od mercanaries have in their contract that's they won't fight winged hussars
3)hussars was like a tank
4) IT is documented that one hussars nailed 6 rus warriors on his lance
The Hussars were the best cavalry in the world, made up of the best warriors for whom God, honor and homeland were sacred. They have proved it more than once.

Did you know the Winged Hussars are the inspiration to the American Calvary? Under the approval of General George Washington, the Polish born American Gen. Casimir Pulaski and Hungarian born Michael Kovats de Fabriczy formed the Pulaski Cavalry Legion during the American Revolution. Both Pulaski and Kovats made the ultimate sacrifice while fighting for the independence of their new country.
Author Henryk Sienkiewicz would win the Nobel Prize for his works, including the Polish Trilogy, a series of epic novels that include the Winged Hussars. Sienkiewicz's work "On the Field of Glory" is about the events of the Battle of Vienna which also inspired the Sabaton song. The depiction of the Winged Hussars is likely an inspiration to the Riders of Rohan in the Lord of the Rings trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkien.
Want to see a completely insane and balls out charge? Check out what Napoleon's Imperial Polish Lancers did a Somosierra. A few hundred Polish horseman saber charged four batteries of Spanish cannons, uphill. They were supposed to capture the first battery but instead to every one's shock they went and captured all four.
It's our history, you know. One of the brightest moments of polish history, of course people lowed it. We actually saved Europe from Muslim reign, saving Vienna from Otoman Empire siege. To this day memory of hussars lives; army panzer divisions take it's name, since obviously they were heavy infantry and when they charged, they destroyed everything in their path. And king Jan III Sobieski was a great king and smart tactic.
🎄 MERRY XMAS to You.🌟. Thanks for deep diving. History is IT.🎄
Thank You
@@TouchyReactions You're welcome. Proposition: check next LEGO SABATON - Red Baron, it's epic
It should be noted that the vast majority of forces were from the Holy Roman Empire, though. They rarely get recognition. It was a team effort that day.
@@infini_ryu9461 Yes, it was a team effort, but the album title is "Last stand", and 18 000 winged hussars charge WAS their last appearance in such number, for such important cause. Of course, with the roman empire army flanking Vienna from the west, the charge was more effective, but that song is not about entire battle. It is Last Stand.
And never has a unit looked more glorious doing so than the polish Winged Hussars.
Love from Germany! :)
USA cavalry was base on Polish Wing Hussars by Polish Cavalry General Pulawski in General Washigton army. General Pulawski safe live of General Washigton twice. USA cavalry have polish flag on the lances.
Sweden owe a bit of grattitude towards Poland since the great fires of 2018. Then the winged hussars arrived to Sweden in form of fire-brigades.
absolutly right brother Sweden owes a lot to Poland love the country ,people, food and culture blessed with Polish friends , hard working ,loyal and honest, greeting from Sweden
We c help with fires and earthquakes in europe, Greece Spain Sweeden dont matter we'll help and others help when a massive flood hits us. That's how it works.

"Even if the sky falls on our heads, we will support it with our copies."
Ah, my first Sabaton song. Always a classic. And everytime it gives me the urge to rewatch LOTR that you might notice has a few very similar scenes.
That's probably because The movie used the charge from the hill in Vienna as inspiration for the scene. And what a cool scene it is.
The siege begun 14th of July Austrian and Germans have been fighting a 2 front war against the French in the west and the Muslims in the East. The German Austrian army where outnumbered 10 to one and fought a delaying battle around Vienna for 2 month mounting Ottoman casualties during the siege to 48.544 death.

Just wrote a similar comment... it has so many parallels... funny. ^^
can't remember the source but i read somewhere that J. R. R. Tolkien was inspired by the story of the Winged Hussars in the Siege of Vienna, (July 17-September 12, 1683) and used it for the book [the return of the king during battle in fields of Pelenor (siege of Minas Tirith) Krokmaniak]
Wasn't it charge during battle in fields of Pelenor (siege of Minas Tirith)? In book during siege of Hornburg (helm's deep) rescue charge wasn't done by riders but huorns (feral ents sent by Fangorn)
@@Krokmaniak lol yep i had to find my books again the movie changed the helms deep siege
Such a curiosity about hussar riders. The cheapest cost for all equipment, weapons, and other necessities was about $ 500,000 in current money. This was what the rider had to spend out of his own pocket. And there were those who spent so much on the equipment of the horse.
And selling hussar horses outside Poland was punishable with death.
@@bartoszrebelski8571 true
Imagine: The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002) - "Forth Eorlingas" scene and multiply this by three as in that scene is only 6K riders in the movie... Imagine how the earth was shaking when they charged from that moutain.
Glory to Winged Hussars
Another youtuber who is a historian "vloggingthroughhistory" reacts to sabaton as well and he talked about how this was pretty similar to a real life Helms Deep from Lord of the Rings.
When gandalf arrived with all the cavalry. So that is a very good way of visualising what this was like for the battle.
Actually I think it’s more similar to the charge at pelannor fields where that charge is inspired by the charge of the winged hussars.
@@melkor3496 Tolkien was inspired byt that battle for both of those battle in his book
both, Battle for Helms Deep and Minas Tirith
@@sharinggore3013 I think you are right, the sappers that planted explosions are also a part of the Battle of Helms Deep, you'll see the Orc running with a Torch toward the Walls where there are explosives.

POLAND: my love, my everything 🇵🇱 I love!
According to the lie I just made up, my ancestor was a Winged Hussar at Vienna.
As like always in history of Poland, we help Osterrich and less than 100 years later, they seize Poland and finale they make Poland dissapear from map of Europe
in the early days it was said that the hussars would "support the falling sky with their copies" if the need arose.
20:15 Good Lieders say - "After me!" Cowards say - "Forward"
Polish Winged Hussars were for me the most beautifull military unit in the history and most deadly.
This song is putting up a hell of a fight to become my favorite Sabaton Song.
and all soldiers stopped fighting just to watch theire charge. Thats the Legend :D the most accurate charge was in Lord of the rings by Rohhirim, but we have to remember that charge of Hussars was perfectly lined, today riders cannot recreate this formation becouse it takes houndrets of hours training horses and riders for such a perfect lined formation. And the Lances, pikes or how u wanna call it was far longer than in movies :D thay made special type of holding mounted on a saddle they were not holding it only with a hand... xD all those things are in modern books u can get it easy. when i finished this .... the winged Hussars arrived
Well done guys you are really good , regards from Melbourne ⚓🇵🇱🇦🇺
The wings used to have a psychological effect....simply, the army of hussars made the impression of being the invincible giants on horses, the knights looked much bigger, especially from the distance.
Those big wings sticking over the head were used at the end of husaria, when it was the escort in funerals of prominent persons. And no one will ever believe in impression made on a dead body in a closed coffin. But yes, husaria used to make the strong impression on the enemy at the battle field, its horses before all. Nevertheless, this was done with other means.
During 200 years the Polish/Baltic elitforce on horses was the so called Hussars.
They had huge wings tied to their back in order to put fear in the enemy, and thats how they got their name, The Winged Hussars.
In school swedish kids learn alot history, but obtain the knowledge Joakim Brodén and the other sabaton members has, you must be really interested.
Great channel with the deep diving into history. Merry Xmas
Thank You
Actually, the wings had other main role, of cours it scares the shit out of you when somebody who has wings charges you on a horse, but the feathers of the wings while in charge made specific sound that scares horses who are not used to it.

When the winged Hussars arrive!
Sabaton said this became an Internet Meme. Anytime you ended a statement with "and" or "then" you would see a meme ending with "The Winged Hussars arrived.
In this Age, we have "an Army of One." we do not need the sweeping army. That is the purview of the Air Force.
This song is catchy as hell.
Polska 🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
The painting in the video is the cover of the Last Stand Album and features something of of every song (and every song is brilliant).
There is a pretty good movie about this store: The Day of the Siege: September Eleven 1683 (2012).
and with that I wish you and yours a Merry Christmas! Hope you have an amazing festive period.
To be more specific I would say each person in the painting represents a "Last Stand".
-Sparta - King Leonidas and the 300
-Blood of Bannockburn - Scottish defense of Stirling Castle
-Shiroyama - The last Samurai trying to maintain their authority and honor
-The Last Stand - 189 Swiss guards protecting the Vatican
-etc.
In these cases it was stand and fight on last time and more than likely die.
When the winged hussars came down the mountain, the enemy was sure they would not back down, hussars ran them down with their horses. Fact is they couldnt stop, they came down the mountain so fast they couldnt slow down on the battle feild and fight.
When I first heard this story I needed out and did a bunch of math with how many men in the charge and using the average size of a horse today(I know they would likely be smaller then but...) And if you give a few feet of separation to the side and front to back the charge would have basically been 14 football fields of horses and men running at you 😂
the biggest winged hussars meme is probably the battle for Helm's deep (Lord of the rings: hte two towers)
In Lord of the Rings, the battle for Helms deep is based on this story. Rohans army is suposed to be the winged hussars and the orcs are the Ottomans.
Helm s deep.and pellaner field are both based on this, mass cavalry charge down a mountain to relieve a fortress
Helm's deep wasn't. In book rescue was made by huorns, feral ents sent by Fangorn.
Love this one. I was cavalry. Dragoon. So I never charged into battle on a horse. We ride in on mechanical beasts, dismount, and give you all sorts of hell while those mechanical beasts are parked as an instantly placed fortification
We've, like I had a say, had Dragoon Regiments be reclassified as Armored Recce and have no dismounts. My wife was a tread head chief (VC) with RCD, while I was a SIC with The Royals. How we meet.
That's what Polish army used in 1939 Dragoon type units that use horses as transport and high mobility on the battlefield than dismount and use lmg's kar98k's anti tank rifles and bofors 37mm AT cannons. They may not be a mechanised army but still a very mobile one. Sad that a well intentioned Italian journalist wrote an article that"colorised" the disparity between forces and sadly started the trope of polish cavalry using sabers on tanks. Then German and after the war Comunist propaganda cemented this fake trope. They used Dragoon tactics and modern AT weaponry and just used horses as transport (horses dont need gas)
@@dariuszrutkowski420 I grew up with that myth. Saw a propaganda video. Then I grew up and learned "This is how a reaction force saves someone"
After this battle king of Poland say : " Im comiing im look and God win "
Jan Sobieski was a general or should I say prime commander before he became a king.
Nice Sabaton has returned I love watching your reactions to them I always watch the entire vid including history part because if I don’t then the winged hussars will come.
Thank You

hoooohaaaaa! these guys were the "death from above" in the16. century! and they did well, didnt they?
The background is the album cover. It shows warriors from the last stands on the album.
The sad part is as soon as Vienna was freed, al credit went to other kings of The Holy League (mainly The Germans)) and king Jan III Sobieski, the architect of this victory, was omitted and basically king of Austria told him to get lost.
Jan III Sobieski reportedly was so furious when they were returning that he told his soldiers that has he known how the city will thank him, he'd just watch Vienna burn and do nothing.
And remember - he was a Pole. He *WOULD* do this.
Someone mentioned in comments panzer divisions named after hussars. To add to that I suggest looking up emblem of gen. Maczek's 1st armored division from WW2 or modern "Black division" (polish one, as 11 LDKPanc)
Polish cavalry (mechanized, under the command of General Maczek, the so-called "black devils"), broke the impasse at Falaise during World War II, which had a decisive influence on the progress of the Allies in Europe in 1944).
That's quite possible and no wonder, that after war was over, too powerful Jan III Sobieski wasn't too warmly received by "local authorities" 🙃
Szkydlata Husaria 💪🇵🇱
One (in my opinion quite probable) theory says that the hussars' wings served as protection against the Mongolian and Ottoman's soldiers use of lassos to take a horseman down. Instead of the hussar the rope stripped the wings instead. This might be just the beginning of the tradition that later gained other functions.
Tak to prawda ochrona przed arkanem
Thanks! And Merry Christmas! (-:
Solid reaction as always. I appreciate that you keep doing these deepdives. Merry Christmas to you and your family
Thanks, you too!
I play a few miniature wargames. only one historical one (Bolt Action, WW2 one)
But I do have a sci-fi one that had a Hussar unit, Motorcycle units that are big, tracked bikes with heavy machineguns on them, but with the big wings on the back, love them, wish I had more than the two I own, need like 5-6 to make a proper wedge
Try to listen to Skrzydła Chwały by Horytnica. It's also about Winged Hussars but in Polish.
Their new album “war to end all wars” is going to be epic! If you haven’t heard it yet check out their preview for “soldier of heaven”! th-cam.com/video/Ix8HqDpa_K0/w-d-xo.html

Thank you 😊
when you told me you on another reaction video that you had this in the works, i was waiting, and as always, you didn't disappoint..... keep up the good work bud
Thanks
to be fair many of winged hussars were lithuanians maybe about 1500 of them in poland hussars were about some 150 of them so yeah proud to be lithuanian
There is a legend about the victorious battle of the Polish king Jan III Sobieski at Vienna in 1683 and stop the invasion of the Ottoman Empire. The Polish nobleman, spy and diplomat Jerzy Franciszek Kulczycki, the owner of the first café in Vienna, "Zur blauben Flasche", persuaded the owner of a nearby bakery, Peter Wendel to start baking crescent shaped bread to commemorate this victory. Apparently, only a hundred years later, she brought them from Austria to France, Marie Antoinette, who was their admirer.The first official recipe for croissants comes from 1839 and is associated with the person of August Zang, the owner of a Viennese bakery at the rue de Richelieu in Paris. This has led to croissants being banned by some Islamic fundamentalists.

LOL, Thanks
Król Sobieski i jego Husarska szarża to była potęga ale to było także w 1939 gdzie oddział Husarski szedł na Niemców z szablami Husaria i kawaleriia

It was a myth with that saber charge on the tanks. The horses were used for quick movement and eventual attack on foot. You can read how the Polish cavalry fought with tanks here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Mokra
Looking at the history of Europe, Poland has always defended the European butt. There is no country in Europe that has not owed your security to Poland. If not for Poland, many invaders from the east would have stopped at the Western Hybrids. Poland has always defended the eastern flank of Europe, and Europe was building its powers at that time. Until today, Western Europe has not repaid its debts to Poland. Poles paid a terrible price for this defense of the eastern borders of Europe. In gratitude for this defense, Europe has betrayed Poland many times, and everyone knows the results. That is why today Poles in Europe are not any immigrants. Today, Poles in Europe are everywhere, I repeat everywhere in my own home. Is it understandable?
With progressing Technology the Size of Armys shrink constantly, in the 16th Century their "modernest" Weapon was i think the Cannons or maybe Muskets so they had too keep at least eye contact to the enemy so they needed a bigger army to fear the enemys.
Today we (The US as an example) sits in Ramstein in Germany and operating Drones in the Middle East to kill People or Bombing.
I m truly fascenated of these Mediveal Battles, how they coordinated these Attacks or organise when and where they march.
At this time they only got Horses and they took some time go get from one country to another.
It's the opposite actually. Army sizes have infact increased overtime. Higher technology means more people not having to farm, which means more people for everything including the military. Now a days most nations could field armies of a million or more (most don't due to their geopolitical situation or other reasons). If an older nation tried that, even if they could somehow muster that many men, they'd be unable to support it, and collapse just trying to feed the people not in in the army, let alone the army itself, then factor in the logistics....
Edit: The general trend of drone usage and less troops on the ground for the last two decades or so is an outlier in history. And I'd argue it is more due to the fact of there not having been a peer to peer conflict between the big boys due to the cold War and the subsequent collapse of the Soviet Union which left the US alone at the top
The live versions of their songs are usually way better than the album versions, but with Winged Hussars, you could REALLY hear it!

Hello

My family can trace family links back to the Winged Hussars. They were made up of the Noble families of Poland. And have family links to King Jan Sobieski, through one of his grand children. They were as I said from Noble families in Poland as they were able to afford the armour and weapons needed.
Kinda like the rohirrims charge at minas tirith, but in rl.
Thank You !
You too
17:50 we prolly will, once we find aliens to fight them. And yea, I'm pretty serious. If we don't find them(the aliens) we might destroy each other in a few hundred years. All we need is another painter at the head of a major power...
Szacun Sabaton👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏💕💕💕💕
Winged Hussars is so catchy a song! Shiroyama though, is the most moving song of The Last Stand album. Is it on the list of your reaction?
I have already reacted to it you can see it on my Patreon if you like.
Przybyłem, zobaczyłem Bóg zwyciężył
I know you watched the Uprising song, but I wish you can see the Sabaton history about the Uprising too
Thanks Robin. It's on my list of things to revisit.
It’s there cover to the album
"Russian Tsar created an army of Winged Hussars" yes and when they did parade in Moscow, they forgot to lower their lances while passing the Kremlin gate. The lances got broken.
You see, it gets more to be a Winged Hussar than to grab a hollowed lance and don a pair of wings.
Nice and Polish Cavalry
You should do "The Last Battle" next

About sabaton memes there is few compilations on youtube
Battle of Vienna didn't finish this war , month later Battle by Parkany crush Ottoman empire . What winged hussar was worth next example :Charge of Kutyszcze september 1660, Hussar lieutenant Wladyslaw Wilczkowski's banner (approx. 130 accompanied hussar) encountered the rear guard of the retreating army of Moscow - two squadrons of Russian cavalry, and Cossack Regiment - about 1700-3000 people - Wilczkowski didn't had to think twice - he charged on them, reiters rushed to escape, raming their own infrantry, hussars caught them, slashing anything that moved, and then they've turned back and charge on the Cossacks infrantry again. Seeing what is going -the other hussar banner - Lieutenant Stanislaw Wyżycki - another 143 hussar horses and lances, joined the action. Loss for the Polish were few dead and wounded People, the side of Moscow - hundreds killed, several thousand army smashed and the morale of the rest of the Muscovite army - smashed into pieces. Hussar used lance 6 meter long ( 16. 68 feet ) too .
26:08 fun fuct but laiter when Poland was split the turkish king always ask did someon from Lechistan/arived and someon from always have to say no Lehistan have not yet arived
Lechistan=Poland
WAIT DIDNT you forget there were also lithuanian winged hussars polish lithuanian commonwealth btw lithuania was the first one to have winged hussars
17:33 - Nothing has changed since then.
Not to mention that as long as we'll have Americans fighting war after war, provoking others when there's no need to, and potentially dragging the whole NATO to anther conflict, well...
Yeah, sorry that I'm posting the comment here of all places, but frankly Americans make me more and more worried as a European.
USA is such a great country. Beautiful, proud and advanced. And quite young too (by European standards). Yet singlemindedly focused on war, ever since its beginning. Why?
An irresistible urge to stand up for freedom and oppose tyranny across the world. At least that's the line sold to the poor saps they dupe into joining up.
@@DakotaKid95 The sad part is that very few of the conflicts US got involved into ended up inducing an actual freedom.
More often than not the "fight for freedom" or "war on terror" are just noble terms for years of fight which in the end only result in infrastructure damage and massive casualties on both sides while not bringing any change at all. Prime examples being Vietnam and Afghanistan.
Frankly, the whole system is flawed. How can Americans even be so patriotic and view themselves as "saviors"?
This is all mostly correct; the charge was awesome, everybody watched instead of fighting. But next to Vienna - it was the charge against nothing in fact - the 'otomans' were escaping. A day or two later next to the village Parkany a real victory took place. I say 'victory' but in the matter of fact it was a 'butchery' rather. All the same, the wars were led this way that time. But this was not the time Polish winged hussars seved Europe. In 1621 the otomans made an earlier rehearsal of 'walking' though Europe. Vienna, Rome, may be Paris were the milesteps in their plans. The hussars aided by Ukrainian cavalry stoped them. If you wish to know what happened there, than go to the slaughterhouse and watch. Than multiply by 2 (at least) and you'll have the idea.
Jestem Polakiem, myślę że jesteś z Ukrainy i myślę że to był historyczny błąd że Rzeczpospolita w nazwie składała się z dwóch narodów. Co najmniej z czterech, Litwa Polska Ukraina Białoruś na równych prawach
@@MagdaMaciaszek-ny3ui Polska była w unii personalnej z Litwą - przecież od tego zacząła się dynastia Jagiellonów. Ukraina nie była zdolna stworzyć własnej państowości. Polska ją przyłączyła tak, jak Anglia przyłączyła Kenię. Białorusi wcale nie było; tereny należały po części do Polski i do Litwy. Mój wujek-dziadek administrował między wojnami majątkiem 400km2 30km na południe od Mińska i wszystkim mówił, że był na Litwie.
Polish cavalry (mechanized, under the command of General Maczek, the so-called "black devils"), broke the impasse at Falaise during World War II, which had a decisive influence on the progress of the Allies in Europe in 1944).
similar scene was in LOTR two towers
What relationship with the image of the Japanese soldier and his samurai ancestor?
Please tell me you do Nuclear Attack? Great song, one of their first, and you can probably guess what it is about.
If you want to watch some memes watch
Anime vs Red Baron
Or
Anime vs Great War
Or
Anime vs Bismark
I laughed my ass of

Swedish mercyneris aded to their contracts that they will not fight with husars
That reminds me lord of the rings when urukhai planted bombs and then later rohirim arrivas
125 Year win every battle
maybe you already know that the drummer of Sabaton is married to the singer of Nightwish.
Yes, we actually met him at talked with him for about 10 minutes in Nashville. You can see our VLOG about it on the channel.
MY my you are touchy I was just supplying information that some people may not know
I wasn't being snarky. I just thought you'd be interested in the VLOG.
As for giant armies, the only foreseeable possibility is a, probably limited in scale then even, Russian invasion. Just the way the Russian military is set up. Russia's always been an artillery army. Having Army group levels of artillery, literally hundreds of 18 152mm gun batteries, focus and isolate at most battalion sized Nato elements. Slamming into them the second the fire lifts and moves to blockade reinforcements with, on paper, two mechanized companies of infantry and a tank platoon with a further 2 motorized companies in reserve to exploit any breakthrough, if not achieve their own. And even if that first battalion fails to achieve its goal and is mauled to a man, theres 5 more battalions just like it right behind them. And if it doesn't look like there's the possibility of a breakthrough at one location, they'll divert echelons of ordinance to another sector to support a more promising attack.
SABATON - 40:1
I've done it already. You can find it on my channel.
hussars polish the best
You've asked whether we as a civilisation have outgrown the time of great armies conquering nations. Well, please look into what is happening to Belarus, or what happened during recent years in Ukraine and Georgia.
