      How far are you from a producing a pilot? I'd be interested in assisting and funding you when you have something to pitch. I did three years of film production at university when I did my combined Bachelor of Laws / Bachelor of Com Sci - because we couldn't major in the secondary degree as part of a combined degree so it didn't matter what I picked thus I chose what seemed fun to make the credit points up instead. And boy was it ever. But one thing I learned is 99% of people are absolutely incapable of even making indie movies or first year film projects. This is why pilots are essential.

    I love when you stray from the crusades and bring the history of other kingdoms and battles to light. I've said this before but thank you for making history fun too learn for me.

    Moray is pretty underrated, wonder what course the war would had taken had not he died here, his son was also a great soldier.

    My ancestors were Scottish nobility and were from lanark. When William Wallace sought help from the Scottish people my family were some of the first to join his cause. That’s why years later when the English had control over Scotland and posted a new list of lords the families of the supporters were no longer nobility or lords. My family was taken off the list and lost any prestige or anything because of their steadfast support of Scottish freedom. This and being Irish as well makes me look at Ukraine and feel for them being invaded by war mongers. All people deserve freedom from foreign powers imposing will or trying to take over and or take the lives of a people.

      @@joshdiaz9773 Unlikely unless they were very secretive about it, consider the ramifications from the Papacy and the King of France if it was known. The English historians are the biggest proponents of this theory, after all how can mere Scots defeat the mighty English army. Also glad your giving Scottish Knights some attention, Sir James Douglas is my all time favourite Knight of this period though King Robert was a Master General and first over the wall during many a siege 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🙏💙
