The Ancient Origins Of Medieval Scotland's Most Feared Military Tactics | Warriors Way | Chronicle

The renowned reputation of Scottish clans as formidable warriors traces its roots back to the Picts, who, despite Hadrian's Wall, continuously plundered Roman Britain through sea raids. With a blend of Viking and Celtic blood, an array of weaponry, including battle axes and blades, was developed. Scottish men were raised with a warrior mindset, crucial for facing their natural adversary, England. Despite typically engaging in internecine conflicts, the clans united in a fierce war of independence from 1296 onwards. This resistance was sparked when Edward I (the 'Hammer of the Scots,) claimed the Scottish throne for his puppet, only to be cleverly defeated by the rebellious upstart William Wallace, who met a gruesome end after ultimate defeat.

The modern scots could use some of that old warrior prowess and pride today.

It was rare, but not unheard of, for a clansman to amputate his leg and attach a machine gun to the stump

Sometimes its hard to unravel mythology from history. Sometimes when trying to unravel mythology from history, you find the history more unbelievable than the mythology.

Greaqt video as always! I would love it if you guys made a playlist that has all your videos in chronological order, that way I can follow along with the history. For example, your first video is about Bloody Mary, and then later on there's a video about her Father and Stepmother. It would be nice to see the parents first and then the kids

We all know the main reasons for Scottish military success; faster moving infantry (starting in feudal age), faster firing siege, and 40% more hit points on the siege. The faster wood choppers definitely help set up a robust eco to support your army. And do not forget: "An army marches on its stomach..." so luckily your enemy shouldn't be able to steal any of your starting sheep

That niether the Earl of Moray nor the Black Douglas were never mentioned in this was a shame , that we Scots were and are fearsome in battle and first class warriors is something we're born with . We carry the warrior gene , born of the nature of our land and history no matter where in the world we ended up ! ๐Ÿ˜Š

When a ruler oppresses people and gives them nothing to lose, he does not create a subjugated people, he creates a bunch of cornered badgers. Do not underestimate a people who have scratched an existence and had to fight tooth and nail for every last thing they have.

I saw Fraser and I thought of undertaker in Dad's Army. It was said in 16th-17th centuries the English kept a portrait of William Wallace in their privies. I read that in a 18th century Chapbook.

Proud of my Scottish/Pict/Viking Blood, My family came from Scotland, in the far North just before the Civil War and immediately signed up with 4 members, my Great Great Grandfather, and 3 of my Uncles of the same period, Lost my Grandfather at Shiloh, my uncles both Captains, one fought with a bullet in his neck through Shiloh and at Corinth was shot in the leg, Had to have it sawed off in two places at separate times to stop the gangrene and replaced with a wooden Peg from the knee down, then went on to fight through to the end of the war. Another Uncle called the poet of the Civil war in a book about them gave me a clear picture of how tough they were, even in their photos in uniforms they looked like they would fit even wounded. This was a good rendition of the history of Scotland and I fly the flag proudly in my house and yard. And yes I play the bag pipes and tossed the Caber in the Highland Games.

The caber toss is not about distance - it is closest to a 12 o'clock throw from the participant. The caber must turn end over in the air, land on its top then fall away from the participant as dead straight as can be achieved. It is a great test of strength and accuracy. The throw done in the video was close to perfect. Note, I said "participant", you may have thought I'd have said "tosser." Nope. I am descended from Fergus Mor MacErc of Dalriada and thus Conn of the Hundred Battles, High King of Ireland.

Those "English" bowmen were Welch (conscripted and told if they joined the fight they'd get lands in Scotland).

looking through history, aside from harassing raids, the winner of major battles is almost always the defender that picks the battlefield and lets the opponent launch the attack. if we lived this way, never attacking, there would be far less war.
