How did these raw recruits come to join the army of the early Empire? This video reenacts what it was like to join the Roman legion. The process included passing a physical test, proving one's qualifications, and taking a Roman soldier's oath before the commander.

In this history documentary we bring to life the True Size of Napoleons Army. This subject is absolutely massive and so we will be exploring it in a series of True Size episodes covering the infantry, the cavalry, the artillery, and finally the combined arms force of an Army Corp. This video focuses exclusively on the infantry. Here we begin with the smallest level of the 15 man Ordinaire and go up to the largest pure infantry group of the Brigade.
I hope that by visualizing the army in the way you can get a better understanding for a Napoleonic Army and especially the way in which the Napoleonic Wars were waged across its famous battles including the Battle of Austerlitz, the Battle of Waterloo, and more. For those with a sharp eye, you will now be able to see how such formations may or may not manifest in popular media such as the Napoleon Movie battle scenes.

In this series we continue to explore the warfighting capabilities of the Space Marine Chapters. While prior episodes focused on the Marines themselves, in this video we turn to their primary transport vehicle, the Thunderhawk. We begin with a review of the history of Space Marine dropships. In the years of the Great Crusade this included such vehicles as the mighty Stormbird which was capable of carrying hundreds of troops at a time. However the breakup of the Space Marine Legions and a need for more tactical deployments eventually led to a shift towards the Thunderhawk. It struck the right balance in terms of combat strength, cargo capacity, and perhaps most important, cost.
We then go over the full details of a Thunderhawk. This includes its propulsion systems, navigation, weapons, interior facilities, and crew. Finally we then detail the operational uses of the Thunderhawk for both orbital insertion and void combat.
