  • I love how Matthew Settle upgraded his career, from leading a show featuring hardcore battles, to gossip girl HAHA omg.. -.

  • Wow - did they copy this from Time Commanders?

  • @blueray1969 No, this is about the battle of Guagamela. xD

  • @JEELEN2 What? Yes, it does look like they copied it from "Time Commanders", the show. Same graphics and same music. But with a presenter with a whiny voice.

  • lol all persians have monobrows 2:18

  • If these guys had used Roma Surrectum 1 or 2 (RTW Mods, not different games) it would've been even MORE REALISTIC.

  • I don't get it. Why to mislead the masses on ancient history? It's o.k. to commercialize a historical event, but this( @ 2:16), it's VERY UNPROFESSIONAL: this is SAFAVID ART, INHERITED FROM THE MONGOLIAN INVASIONS OF THE AREA IN THE 1200's A.D.Why the IGNORANT PRODUCERS DID NOT DISCERN BETWEEN Achemenid art and Safavid art???

  • @tekatetikitiki that was so OBVIOUS! Thumbs up.

  • @supersmash43: Yeah, my friend: LET'S SEND LIARS AND IGNORANCE TO THE HADES.LONG LIVE JULIAN ASSANGE!! Take care.

  • I love how they even use the music from RTW... what an awesome game!

  • Comment removed

  • 11 people are failing history class

  • Greek kingdom of Macedon???Are you serious???The great kingdom od Macedonia and glory of her!

  • @parmenionmkd if you open a history book you will find out that macedon was something like a greek city state just like sparta and athens and its capital was pella.on the other hand if you come from fyrom open the internet if you want to learn the truth because those you learn in school about history are false and lies.the whole world accepts that alexander or philip were greeks just like you see in the video.i dont blame you for your belief, its part of the propaganda of your government

  • @daywalker5850 Suuuure, so Alexander is actually an Alien from Jupiter and his army wasn't armed of spears, but of WMD and Laser Rifles, please, dont be stupid, you fucking RETARD

  • @darthchucho the only thing i want to say is that its a pitty that young people dont know important facts of world history.no,alexander wasnt an alien he was greek and the whole world accepts it so its a waste of time trying to prove it even to uneducated people like you......

  • @daywalker5850 You really don't know how to tell sarcasm from seriousness? i was obviously being sarcastic.

    1º Why would the FYRoM would lie to their peoples? telling them they aren't descended from Greeks? (partly they aren't since a lot of Slavics reside there)

    2º Why are you telling us "the truth" when yourself said "the whole world accepts it" if the whole world accepts it, it's obvious we all know, no need to remind us...

  • @parmenionmkd omg omg omg did they say to you that it is not at the school???

  • 0:15 334 BC?? I recall hearing and reading that Alexander's conquest actually began almost 500 years after the Battle of Marathon/Thermopylae. Correct me if I'm wrong.

  • @Condom007of007Solace Where did you see that?

  • @Condom007of007Solace No it was more like 150 years (Marathon 490 BC and Thermopylae 480 BC)

  • Cyrus The Great from Persia - Thymbra: 60 000 Persians defeat 150 000 lydian greeks. Alexander - Gaugamela: 45 000 Greeks defeat 200 000 Persians. Caesar - Alesia: 50 000 romans defeat 240 000 Germanics. Hannibal - Cannae: 35 000 Carthaginians defeat 90 000 Romans. Man i also want to be a part of this list. :( VictumRomanius - Earth: 50000000 humans defeat 8000000000000000 Aliens!!!!
  • I like the show but they use crappy units to represent armies

  • Men with little imagination celebrate war and keep its traditions & the philosophy of valorous ambition by way of conquest alive. It is a cultural failing that results from our inability (or unwillingness) to treat the self-absorbed obsession of sociopathy as a dangerous moral & spiritual disease that blights humanity by priveleging ruthless unmoderated ego over the well-being of collective society.

  • @starmanskye Alexander was a damn good king and generous man. He allowed the majority of the cities and provinces he conquered or submitted to him to remain sovereign. So his "unmodderated ego" and "valorous ambition", were mostly a good thing for his subjects.

  • i like this show cuz shows more troops then i'll ever see in the real game

  • yea alexander and his companian cavalry were literally "mates" lol

  • Nobody conquered us, the arabs of the arabian peninsula. Now, I know someone's gonna jump and say "ofc nobody did, why would anyone want empty desert land with bedouin tribes killing each other?". Well, thank god we were like that, at least it kept our lands clean til somebody discovered oil lol. And yes, I drive a white brand new Mercedes S500 AMG, and I do know we'll runout of oil, but how long am I gonna live? 100 years? Hell No! Peace, from the middle east!

  • @Arreffone same with britan for the most part, the romans did but after that we were unconqured, geographical features are huge part of warfare

  • the legacy of forget empire still there..alexandre not create an empire but conquer some barbarian ....

  • after alexandre defeat daruis .. seven yearz after death alexandre..but he don t make better world but destroy the great empire world even know..

  • lol can u imagine how many facebook friends alexnader would have XD

  • 7 people are persians

  • @Rebypox you are actually a asshole. Persians respect Alexander and they always have just cause the empire fell to him doesn't mean Persians hate him, if anything he made us stronger after Alexanders death Parthia was created and so were the sassinids after parthia so why is there a reason to hate him he did what all great generals great so stfu!

  • @ForgerOfEmpires Gripe, gripe, whine, whine, FINE! 7 people are the only lucky ones to have escaped the battle.

  • This video wasn't fan made? Did the History Channel really use the Total War music and footage?

  • @commandoslayer yeah they did. This is a real history channel series. They cancelled it after the first season for some stupid reason though. It was a really great series

  • @SlyDessertFox What stupid reasons? Don't tell me that it was because The Creative Assembly claimed copyright issues because that wouldn't be stupid but completely retarded. Both The total war series and the History Channel can greatly benefit with this type of documentaries.

  • @commandoslayer I dont no why. I really loved this series. It was not because CA claimed copyright because CA gave them full permission to use it if I am correct. I guess they thought it wasnt popular which in that case, they were greatly mistaken

  • lmao i hope the makers of this realised that rtw would become outdated rather quickly, hopefully they'll remake everything when a Rome 2 comes out.

  • 4:17 thats debatable

  • @imhungry4444 That's not even debatable, that's pure BS.

  • TW Series the best!!!

  • @hijmio ROME II needs to be done!!!!

  • @relentlessaddict98jm You jinxed it.

  • @relentlessaddict98jm try Rome total Realism, it's pretty close :)

  • @relentlessaddict98jm i second that notion

  • A M2TW or ETW version of this series would be awsome

  • guys, you do know this tv series came out 1 year before rome total war came out right?

  • a simple question .. can a FYROM person translate what the word alexandros or fillipos (or so on) means? because every fucking greek person can easily reply... my dear SCOPIANS before u steal history u must steal the hellenic language so to translate the meanings.. politicians gave u a nice fairy tail to feel proud but since u wanna be called macedonians u should join Hellas cause PELLA home town of alexander is at thessaloniki..read a book and avoid brain wash!

  • Dear arguing people.

    The Question of whether or not Macedonia was part of Greece is one easily argued on both sides. Keep in mind city-states were essentially like different countries with each one claiming to have different descents (dorians and such the like.) and Macedonia could be considered another Greek city-state. Geographically it isn't, but hey go figure. Alexander was respresenting the Greeks on his campaign. ' Pan-hellenic war of vengeance.'

    But there is no definate answer...

  • Greeks weren't always friendly to other Greeks istoriify.

  • they used a video game!!!!

  • Skopians

  • @dimstiv !  arvanitoslavovlaxotourkosporos­!

  • @dimstiv Macedonians were called barbarians, a label that the ancient Greeks, attributed only to all non-Greeks.

  • @istoriify Now the Macedonians call you still Barbarians .. LOL

    Nicko ,, how old is the picture of you on my bg ?

    you were born a Bulgar you will die a Bulgar .

  • WTF kind of Pc does history channel have??

    If i have that amount of soldiers on the battlefield, it lags like fuck!

  • Don't watch this, this is greek propaganda, greeks are brainwashed peoples and they want to wash your brain too, don't let them to do that that to you. They bribe every historician media to spreed their propaganda. Every real historician know that Alexander the Great(Macedonian) was macedonian and his father Philip II was macedonian. If you want proves and historical facts send me private message.

  • @11Macedonian11 your wrong, Macedonia was a region of Greece, but the regular Greeks like the Athenians acknowledged them as barbarians due to their harsh accents. and if u haven't noticed, this isnt Greek propaganda. We praise the ancient greeks heavily not only because they influence whole western culture and civilization, but they also effected western history. if ur still too ignorant to understand this, then realize this at least: your watching something about ancient Greece. get over it.

  • VIDEO GAME TECHNOLOGY HAHA

  • @PurestLogic whats the problem with that?

  • @masofsu

    This was aired before RTW was released.

  • too bad the empire didn't last 100 years... Rome? lasted more than 1000 years, fuck greece.

  • @ConsurgoTitanus

    Byzantine empire also lasted more than 1000 years.

    Official language: Greek

    Official religion: Orthodox

    fuck Italy (i don't mean it but i just respond the way you do)

  • Matthew: now with new video game technology, you will see this battle like never before

  • Lol

    Rome: Total War

  • they couldve at least used rtw alexander

  • Alexander was gay

  • @BigGee614 correction bisexual

  • @MrNightshade689

    Correction, the Greeks didn't use terms like that. Having sex with other men was considered normal AS LONG as you weren't the passive one during the sex(I think you know what I mean). Alexander was not gay, as it was considered normal to have sex with other men back then(you had to be the active one in the relation though like I said before)

  • @BigGee614 gay or not he had conquered many at a very young age have you conquered any countries i think not

  • @BigGee614 what does his sexuality have to do with his ability as a warrior?

  • Alexander was Macedon not Greek ...... Alexander burned Thebes and acted bloody againts Greek revolt..

  • @Grenadiertr Mecedonia was and still is greek.

  • @Grenadiertr So did the Athenias on Milos..So athens and Milos are not Greeks right?

  • Excuse me please.

    There is no proof of these battles by the 'Pharaoh of Egypt' ever really happened on earth!

    There is no verifiable archaeological evidence of this found!

    Because these battles took place in the heavenly sky above, as recorded in myth.

    Thank you.

  • I wish my computer could handle that many troops .... *drools*

  • They even used music from Total War...

  • the noobs spelled gaugamela as "guagamela"

  • Rome total war 2 is coming after shogun 2!

  • King of the tiny Greek kingdom of Macedon IN YOUR FACE FYROMIANS!!!!!

  • GREEK HISTORY INSPIRES EVEN THEIR ENEMIES....

  • @BraveManNewWorld this is macedonian history

  • legolasbt you are asshole....xekoliari...fuck you and your mother

  • fail! the battle of isus fought near a river and the sea but here you can see only desert

  • evry body says greek state of macedon .Asshioles.Macedonia was never greek and aleksander was never a greek king.If we were greeks why were there 30000 greeks in the persian army from athens and other cities.Why did they rebel aginst Aleksander.Why did they fight at heronea?

    The greeks are liars and have always been that.

  • @legolasbt You know Greeks fought against Greeks when Persia invaded right?

  • @legolasbt

    Exactly and the greeks were also and still are bisexual too haha Greece is where homosexuality started haha

  • @legolasbt Why there were 20.000 Greeks when Xerxes invaded Greece in 480 BC ??? Why Thebeans were Persian friendly state??? Should we say that Thebeans weren't Greeks too?? The answer is that Greeks were EVERYWHERE from Anatolia to Marseill Greeks migrated all around Meditteranean region which means that there were Greek populations in Persian Empire too...Alexander started this campaign to libarate GREEKS...Read a good History book...

  • Alex the GREAT.........kicked the shit out of the Persians......outnumbered by 10-1/

  • omfg its matthew settle him out of band of brothers....... her plays as apt ronald spears :D

  • Thumbs up for the great total war music?

  • they stole the rome total war music 100 percent

    its still cool though

  • @333LZ66 not to mention the graphics

  • @333LZ66 no, they used Rome Total War, they got copyrights for sure

  • @333LZ66 Thats because they use Rome Total War in this show.

  • @333LZ66 They not stole it!They just use the game and the music for their description!

  • @333LZ66 that is the most clever discovery i've stumbled over on youtube over the last months, great job to figure that out...

  • at least they aren't using the Pink Parthian Pajama boys from RTW as the Persians!

  • "The Persians turned and ran" Keep running, sons!!! lol.

  • What language spoke Alexander? Makedonoslavians......Hayde animals from Skopia....u came in Balkans before 400 years and u want to say that you r makedonians

  • rofl rome total war for the win

  • so glad alexander and the greeks conquered those barbarian persian filth!

  • This was the first time that everyone got to see the new Rome Total War engine in use. I was so fucking excited for this show!

  • Like the way the horses gallop through the water at waste height, something I thought not possible. Oh, wait- it isn`t possible!

  • I'm sure there have been much better cavalries than the companion cavalry.

  • i love how rome total war is used on decisive battles. this show is very detailed and very fun to watch.

  • @MamaliHefazi1

    I'd take Greeks over Terrorists anyday

  • @MamaliHefazi1 What the fuck are you Babbling on about?? you Brainless Bitchfaggot. Suck your mother's asshole.

  • Alexander the conquer of Asia the Ruler of Persia and Israel Syria and Agypt .

  • Damn those must be some beast-ass computers to run all that

  • how cool would it have been if he managed to conquer india, china and south east asia. that would have changed the course of history and opened up east and west to each other in the medieval times.

  • @CiderCanRaver He did, at least, as far as India and Afghanistan. And built cities populated with his soldiers along with the indigenous people. But he was restless and wanted to go further "to the ends of the Earth", but he died before any of these places had time to grow in the Hellenic image - his ultimate goal. But the cities are still there.

  • @gyrofoam1

    yes i know, hence why why i said it would be cool if he did, beceause he didn't as he died

  • @CiderCanRaver O.K.

  • i love how Persians back then always think that they will destroy Greece but are usually slaughtered by a much smaller less united force of thrace/greece/macedon and more

  • @rkhale02 persia never was destroed by greeks... but by MACEDONIANS.. macedonia fuck greece first at the battle of cheronea and conquered greece.. after that macedonia atack persia than INDIA... so macedonia was 1 world power many years.. since the roman empire.. then greeks together with romans destroy macedonia... this video is fuckin bulshiit MACEDONIANS ARENT GREEKS .. fuckin greek propaganda.KINGDOM WAS MACEDONIA NOT GREECE THAT REMEmBER DONT MIX THIS 2 THINGS.. greetings

  • @TomiBT87

    dude i am not gonna believe that Macedonians are not Greek, they are greek. just a different kind. the Persians were destroyed by Greeks of which most were Macedonians Greeks. key word MACEDONIAN GREEKS

  • @rkhale02 ok bro belived what ever u want is your choice.u are greek or u are not there isnt some diferente kind:)im italian but im diferent kind-hehe ouu im spanish italian:) IM MACEDONIAN MY SELF my father grandfater living in the republic of macedonia and we are 5 milions world wide so we know we are not greeks north greece (agean macedonia) is ocupated part in 1912 balcan wars cleraly macedonian ocupated by greeks IS HUGE THEME TO DEBATE IF U WANT I WILL TELL respect from macedonia

  • @TomiBT87

    yes TODAY'S Macedonia is not Greek. i am talking about ancient times. yes there are different kinds of Greeks, Italians, Spanish, whatever . the point is that Macedonians are mainly Greek with influences from other parts of Europe and the middle east. and just because you are Macedonian yourself doesn't mean you know diddly squat about everything. now please dont reply i dont have time to argue with some hard headed troll on youtube

  • @rkhale02 ouu u are american.. hahah im debating with USA boy?? fuck u my highscholl is older than whole your USA history and yes i dont know everithing but i know my macedonian history- every little part of it

  • @TomiBT87

    WHATEVER DUDE. i dont care anymore you stupid you tube troll. neither of us could be right but whatever i have no time to debate with you and your stupid little disputes about what is Greek and what isn't. and whats wrong with America, because if you think were evil we really aren't that's the government

  • we should just send alexander to the middle east to deal with the problems

  • i dont believe that they know that many details..

    but still cool :)

  • conquering persia=sacking troy X100 now THAT'S a good comparison!

  • too bad alexander expansion wasnt finished

  • @punongkahoy312 if his espansion was finish he could hve been counquer philippines :O

  • @jayjay042298456 10000 generals for 1 alexander. deal? lol

  • English is ... crappy. It should be pronounced MaKedon, not MaSedon.

    It's the same thing with some other words, too

  • @Galentw Y-oo-lee-oos Kee-zer (julius caesar)

    and not to mention the greeks call him Alexandros.

  • @Galentw

    o yeah you're right...

    Hey, I didn't say Alexander!

  • @Galentw well actually in some countries it is pronounced masedonie and not makedonie and to be honest every convo i had with an english man about macedon they alo said macedonie

  • @zorgfleeter

    ah, yeah you're right... But in Greek it's a K sound. (And Macedon was founded by Greek-speaking people)

    Well, English may not be perfect, but no language is. All languages are crappy. (..)

  • how come they didnt use rome total war alexander expansino
