Added 2015-09-04 08:15:37 +0000 UTCWhy let a little oath-breaking get in the way of a good Crusade?

Heather's sneaky Bohemond is my favorite.

2015-09-09 08:19:22 +0000 UTCI'm glad they're coming through! There are SO MANY people and personalities involved in this, but both Heather and James have done a lot of work helping them stand out.

2015-09-09 08:18:43 +0000 UTCA Walpole in chains is the Walpole we all dream of.

2015-09-09 08:18:24 +0000 UTCAbsolutely spectacular. I only started watching this series about a week ago and now I'm hooked. Great work.

2015-09-06 14:37:59 +0000 UTCSplendid episode. Bohemund is such a lovable little weasel. A tricky disreputable sort, but a talented tactician as well. It's to your credit that you've really explored so many of the sparkling personalities of this Crusade.

Extra History
2015-09-05 09:09:21 +0000 UTCGlad you're enjoying it! We're trying to present the information about the Crusaders evenly, neither hiding their failings nor ignoring their triumphs. They're a complex mixture of good and bad - like most people throughout history. :)
Extra History
2015-09-05 09:09:07 +0000 UTCThe supply situation was a crucial part of the way the First Crusade played out, over and over again. We'll see it come up all the way to the end of the series!
Extra History
2015-09-05 09:04:24 +0000 UTCIt does seem fast, doesn't it! But we've actually spent several years with the Crusaders and seen one of their great triumphs (seizing Antioch). Jerusalem is next on their list.
Extra History
2015-09-05 09:03:26 +0000 UTCThere's only one episode left? It feels like there's still so much left to cover.

2015-09-04 16:32:32 +0000 UTCAmateurs discuss tactics and strategy. Professionals discuss logistics.

2015-09-04 14:43:52 +0000 UTCI appreciate the fact that you guys focus on the supply situation for the Crusaders instead of just epic pitched battles. Few medium focus on that and most tend to omit it altogether, forgetting that "an army marches on its stomach".

2015-09-04 08:57:13 +0000 UTCAwesome video! It is interesting that the crusade seems to show both the incredible strengths (the 7 hour shield wall last episode) and weaknesses (the numerous betrayals in this episode, not to mention all of that looting and pillaging of innocents) that people can display.

2015-09-04 08:55:46 +0000 UTCWell I guess we know who was responsible for the Byzantine Oath failing.
