War Thunder is a highly detailed and immersive vehicle combat game that features a huge amount of customizable tanks, aircrafts and ships.
This is Epic History TV's guide to HMS Victory, one of the most famous warships in history, and flagship of Vice Admiral Nelson at his decisive victory over the Franco-Spanish Combined Fleet at Trafalgar in 1805. In this episode we look at the composition of naval crews, and how they sailed, fought and lived aboard a warship like Victory.

It is truly mind boggling how such a quality production hasn't yet been cemented as the standard for making historical documentaries. Epic History TV leads the way!

I cannot tell you how many years I’ve wanted a series on YouTube exactly like this, absolutely amazing job!

This channel is truly a gold standard in historical documentary. I adore HMS Victory and the Napoleonic Wars, and nowhere else do I get the sense that my intense passion is so equally shared than I do here. Even though I knew much about HMS Victory owing to reading on the subject, this miniseries was a profound joy to watch, interesting and awe-inspiring all-through. Your series on Napoleon's Marshals introduced me to a series of inspirational and deeply interesting characters, many of whom I've come to admire profoundly since learning of.
Romanticising the Napoleonic Wars is something I may be very guilty of, but I am filled with emotion at the exploration of these times and the people that forged them. Such pride, inspiration, courage and glory the world so seldom seems to see these days, and yet this era has it in abundance.
I do so adore these videos and hope they may long continue. Thank you to all involved. Your work is so deeply appreciated. :)

4:51 It's great that we know the names of all of Victory's crew. None of them have been forgotten.

This and the previous episode was absolutely phenomenal. This is the best series I have ever seen on such sailing warships of the Napoleonic period, by far. It is so so good to have video that is not only thoroughly researched, but also uses both numbers, examples, and illustrations to showcases the ship and life aboard it. Absolutely outstanding work with this one!

Portuguese gun crews of the 15th-16th centuries invented cannon shot skipping as a way to maximize the use of the Caravel as a highly maneuverable sniping platform.

When I was a child I lived on a farm in the UK. The covered yards we kept the cattle in had a roof made up of wood and clay tiles. That roof was held up by massive wooden pillars that were about 30 feet high that were said to be the recycled masts from ships in Nelson's navy. The wood was so hard it was impossible to knock a steel nail in more than a half inch before it bent over. The buildings were certainly the right age and they were protected by law so they could not be demolished.

For all who have and for those who have not seen Master and Commander with Russell Crowe. This documentary on sea life as well as sailing terminology on a British sailing vessel or as they refer to as a ship of the line. Fascinating documentary on what made the HMS Victory and her crew a force to be reckoned with.
According to her history, the Victory had seen many battles at sea and at home against the French Navy. She fought in 6 major battles and was 1 of 6, which were the most capable of inflicting severe damage to her opponent. These ships of the line had a complement of 800 plus men, from enlisted to Admiral. Great documentary

Basically the only videos I watch that I wish were longer.

Absolutely insane I was literally on HMS Victory when this video was uploaded! I stood in the spot where Nelson fell, goosebumps guys

About halfway through and I had to drop a comment to say how impressed I am with the amount of research and effort that must have gone into this. There's knowledge being dropped with every sentence. Whoever you are - you deserve to get commissioned by the BBC or history channel. Your work is as good if not better than many mainstream studio's that I've seen. Keep it up! Very appreciative.

Master and commander is one of my all time favourite films so this documentary has really helped me understand how things worked, exemplary work! This channel is so underrated

27:00 the good old days "The British navy, well manned, well resourced, and backed by a powerful economy"

If you ever visit the Historic Dockyard in Portsmouth and are lucky, you might get to see the Fore topsail that Victory was using during the Battle of Trafalgar, all the holes, and rips you can see are the result of battle damage. It is very rarely on display these days, only for a few days at a time, and on special occasions.

I went to the National Maritime Museum a few weeks ago and it was a true treat. Galleries upon galleries of excellent historical value and interesting objects with themes and a coherent structure, and pleasing aesthetic. The fact that the museum is free and come with a free audio guide only adds to its excellence. Highly recommend a visit.

The quality of this video kept me watching the screen and listen carefully the entire video. Top tier excellence in video documentary.

At 18:14. Oooh, love the foreshadowing here for the Battle of Trafalgar. LOL. The maneuver that allowed the British to come out victorious at Trafalgar is the fact that Admiral Nelson ordered his line of ships to smash perpendicular to the Franco-Spanish line of ships. I wasn't aware of raking being the most destructive maneuver for a battleship. But at Trafalgar practically all the British ships raked the French and Spanish ships. Now I get why that was a very deadly and potent maneuver.

As a French, can i take this opportunity to share my upmost respect for Great Britain and it’s navy. Vive la France et la Grande Bretagne !

I could watch this for hours! I'm about halfway through the Aubrey/Maturin series and am absolutely enamored. As a citizen of the US, I've always respected the British armed forces, and learning the history of the Royal Navy has only added to that respect and admiration. Incredible stuff, amazing times.
