I'm so sorry again for the delay, that video was reaaally hard to finish, I hope you all doing fine in these times. That was impossible to show the injured Roman soldiers with Total War Engine, I know that part would've been better but...:) For the next one, a Bannerlord cinematic battle video is coming!

To many romans die here
You know, there were a lot of times when I wondered whether my complete and utter nerdiness in spending weeks messing around with making arrow flight paths as realistic as possible was worth it.
This video has shown me that it definitely was, all those arrows coming down looked amazing!
Crassus was a fool
But also his avenger won because he had the high ground
Also, random bit of info, Crassus didn't actually have his men form a testudo at Carrhae, hence why the horse archers did so much damage.
Years later Mark Anthony got stuck is pretty much the same situation and DID form testudo. He managed to retreat back into Roman territory with about a third of his force left. Not much better, but it helped I guess xD
Surena was one of the best commanders in iran during the parthian period ,which gained a lot of popularity after the carrhea war,but the parthian king feared sorena's excessive popularity and killed him by conspiracy.
Dude has like a single battle under his belt 💀
@@wankawanka3053 nope he was quite popular in Parthia before this battle
lol he had conquered modern day afghanistan for the parthians
@@wankawanka3053 In only single battle he Crushed rome. Iranians in that period were born with sword.
Had a lot of women in his harem @@wankawanka3053
the genius of Surena. He made everything possible to fool Crassus and make him underestimate the Parthian army and go to the area designated. He used double agents (arab guides on the service of Rome) to give false intelligence also. It reminds me of soviet "maskirovka".
He was without doubt, according to Roman historians a legendary commander.
In Portuguese (a latin derived tongue) we still use to this day the phrase "Erro Crasso" (Crassus mistake) to make reference to a huge mistake
Same with spanish "Craso error"
@@dhaz4455
same with Swahili, crassa mukule
same with German "Krasser Fehler"
Ohhh so that’s what a crass mistake is
Que massa! Aqui no Brasil eu nunca ouvi essa expressão, vou pesquisar
Imagine how utterly terrifying it must have been to be part of that Roman formation.
You know you’re overstretched with no hope of escape, and gradually you start to realise that your armies tactics and abilities are completed unsuitable for the battle at hand. Your friends are dying all around you and your commanders - fierce men you have seen remain steadfast in tens of battles - are starting to waver and panic. You hold your ground as best you can and wait to die, because there’s absolutely nothing else you can do.
@Hoàng Nguyên The thing is, the Roman army was at an advantage at one point but Crassus's greed got the better of him and his outmanoeuvred army got slaughtered.
@@JosephGibson Crassus was advised by his Armenian allies and local Roman commanders not to leave the river and march his largely infantry army out into the open and largely waterless desert, but he was in a hurry to close with the Parthians. Although he is remembered for being uniquely foolhardy, he would not be the last Roman general, or emperor to be defeated by the Parthians over the coming centuries. They were always one of Rome's toughest adversaries.
@@dpeasehead
Who where the toughest adversaries of Parthians?
@@Phed98 themselves ! because of their decentralized government there was always internal conflict after death of their kings. Actually that's how they were destroyed. Local ruler of Persia destroyed parthians and created sassanid empire.

That counts for every civilization; I meant foreign adversaries
We Iranians are always proud to have had a great General like a brave Sorena in our proud history, Respect to all From Iran ....✌🏽🙏🏽♥️🖤🌼
✨Esta batalla es una demostración palpable de que la legión era tremendamente vulnerable a dos aspectos de la guerra asiática: El caballo de guerra asiático y el arco. La caballería arquera de los partos ANIQUILÓ a las legiones de Craso EN CAMPO ABIERTO.
No estamos hablando de una emboscada ni un audaz golpe de mano como la que perpetraron los germanos y britanos, sino la tactica y estrategia asiáticas desarticulando y aplastando a la legión romana explotando sus tremendas limitaciones.
La legión no estaba preparada para enfrentar caballería que la rodeara y lanzara nubles de flechas sobre sus hombros. La legión no podía ir ni al frente, ni al costado y menos retroceder...PORQUE ESTABA DISEÑADA PARA ENFRENTAR BÁRBAROS CON CARA PINTADA Y ESPADAS LARGAS.
Pero los comandantes romanos y no creían ni por asomo de la invencibilidad de sus fuerzas armadas y abandonaron toda idea de conquista más allá del Eufrates...porque sabían para que fue hecha la legión.
✨LOS ROMANOS INTENTARON INVADIR PARTIA Y FRACASARON.
Invadieron una parte del país solo para fracasar después. Partia era muy amplia y ahora se sabe que las supuestas caídas de la capital de Partia fueron inventos de los historiadores romanos que inventaron victorias que nunca acontecieron. Emperadores romanos varios solían inventar falsas victorias sobre Partia cuando en realidad los romanos se retiraban del territorio supuestamente invadido.
En esta batalla se demostró las falencias tácticas y estratégicas de la Legión, falencias que permanecieron inalterables hasta su ocaso.
Saludos 👍
Too bad he got executed right after LOL
He’s no general patton but it’ll do I guess 🤷♂️
@@crocop6873 he wasn't one of the great generals just someone who uses tactics ... the roman general on the other hand was an idiot
He wasn't Persian though. Parthians were of Scythian descent, and had nothing to do with either Achaimenid or Sassanid Persia
I wish this guy has a patreon so I can support him
Because what he does is the true meaning of art.
Thanks a lot mate, this means a lot to me! :) Actually I have, but I don't share it that much because I don't want to make anyone feel obligated to give me anything, only the ones who wish to donate. :))
@Arnold Wilson It was known as "The Disaster of Carrhae." You bet they lost :)
@I'm Wasim which muslims? It was 700 years before that useless religion was created...
@@rouslant in your mind than which religion is useful?
@@muhammadrafae2965 every religion is useless, but christian and muslim religions are by far the most useless of them all.
You have to understand that before Islam, many other religions did exist with lots of people worshiping lots of random shit. A religion is nothing more than a sect that has taken the power. Nothing more. Free people don't need religions.
The same men and soldiers who brutally crushed Spartacus and his slave revolt were the same ones who later got humiliated by the Parthians.
Yes, that's why Carrhae will always be one of my favorite battles. Crassus forgot that Rome had beaten Spartacus only when its leaders stopped underestimating him and his lieutenants and called the overseas armies home to bring overwhelming force to bear. Surena tricked Crassus into believing that he only had to deal with a short lived arrow storm instead of an all day deluge. And contemporary accounts stated that the Parthians composite bows penetrated everything; including chain mail armor, and that the arrows even pinned the Romans' shields to arms and their feet to the ground.
Crassus army got crushed because they have no ceasar in the battlefield.
@ what could Caesar do in such a situation? Romans had lost the battle before it even begins. When Crassus trusted Parthian double agents Ariamnes and Agbar and rushed into the flat part of mesopotamian desert which was perfect for cavalry maneuvers. Roman legions were adapted to fight in Europe,not middle east deserts. They were too slow,too stationary and the only fighting style they were trained for was hand to hand combat. They didn't even know you could destroy your enemy without even touching him. They learned this in hard way and I doubt even Caesar could do any better in desert fight with troops who couldn't even ride a horse,let alone fight on it or shoot. Caesar had no chance and that was the exact reason Cassius,a veteran of Carrhae,killed him,to spare Rome another humiliating defeat.
Looks like legionares were no matach aginst persian immortals
@@user-hj8mz3hp3s Umm No. It was Steppe Horse Archers and Parthian Heavy Cavalry. Immortals were gone by this time and revived during the Sassanid era.
Surena the great general ❤💔
Roman death: 20 000, 10 000 captured
Persian death: 38 cataphracts... TOTAL

@Ken Penalosa no they were in dezful
@Arnold Wilson they might become slaves or executed
@Arnold Wilson What ken said might actually have some truth to it. Yes, they did become slaves, but it's speculated that these roman slaves later on found their way east. There were chinese records of them encountering a group of soldiers using a "fish scale" looking formation which might actually be referring to the testudo, among other theories. It's interesting stuff honestly ^^
They were not Persians. Parthians are a different Iranic people.
The battle of Carrhae makes the battle of Agincourt look like a picnic.
Both battles we gave those french a dam good thrashing

Archers were recruited from the family while very young and trained for what was considered a highly regarded skilled profession. When captured, they had their middle fingers lopped off so they would no longer be able to pull a bow. When the armies met, they were at close range to each other and a lot of shade was thrown back and forth. The biggest one of all was the archers raising their hands to show their fingers intact. What everyone knows today as flipping someone off with their middle finger came from these archers. Now you can take this to your local bar and look like a genius.
JESUS CHRIST will come very soon!
This is the touch of high culture.
Ah, these archers were copying the Brits who came 1,500 years later. The Brit archers used to h9ld two fingers up to the French adversaries to demonstrate their power. That sign remains as an insult six centuries later. Languages change but gestures do not.
I thought that mid finger was established as to threaten someone using sex.
I love shit like that, thanks for the knowledge
"Only a fool would meet the Cataphracts in an open field…"
A Parthian HORDE Ned! in an OPEN FIELD!!!
Crassus was unaware of any Cataprachts; the fact that this portion of the Parthian army were all on horseback was throwing him for a loop which is why he first ordered his Legions into an extended line with Cavalary on the wings but mid deployment ordered them into a hollow square but it did"nt help much against Surenas"s backup of 1000 Camels loaded with extra arrows so they continue the hail until dusk
Knight Heaven nice
@Antoine M You know, he committed the same error in Hattin.
@GiustiziaSpietata actually, Crassus commanded the legions that defeated Spartacus and his gladiator army, but Pompey took the credit. So, I'm not ready to say he was a bad general. Not going through Armenia at the invitation of the King has puzzled many. Maybe Crassus wanted all the glory and didn't want to share it with Armenia.
The Persian Cataphracts is truly the stuff of legend. Would love to see a movie on them.
The next Persian Empire namely the Sassanid Empire was famous for its Cataphracts. Parthians were famous for their archers.
They are Parthians, not Persians...
@@historicahellenistica2762 They are both Iranian dynasties. Same country, different tribes and yet same blood.
Get some education, kid.
@@historicahellenistica2762 achaemenid, parthian, sasanian were persians :)
@@ebparsa "Kid" ? Lol i'm 44 years old and teacher of history... Persians and Parthians are not the same people, the Parthians came from the Parni tribes,
even if they belong to the big family of Iranian people like the Scythians. Parthians take over the uses of the Achaemenid Persians but that does not make them Persians. I have nothing to learn from you, shut your mouth
The Battle of Carrhae is also be of the few times where an army outnumbered by the Romans actually won and barely lost anyone whilst Rome lost thousands
Yep Hannibal was one of the first wasn’t he?
Battle of Cannae was other one worth to mention. What a similarities in the titles.
Surena was leader of the persian army
He was a true legend
Ya its too bad the paranoid parthian king executed him.
@@lastword8783 It's not certain, another record suggests that he was killed trying saving Orodes form an assassination attempt!

@@aramokurdo they are same people
This is my favorite cinematic battle so far.
I loved this!😍😍
Thanks a lot mate, I wasn't sure about this one but it's great to hear that!
At the end of the battle, legend says the voice from Mortal Combat said: PATHIAN WINS, FLAWLESS VICTORY!
lool that one is definitely Flawless O.O
2:23 probably first time a shot has ever made me feel the fear an infantryman would against a heavy cavalry charge. Basically, you are going to almost certainly die, thousands are coming dear god
Imagine the Sasanid's cavalry then
This is as close as im ever going to get to go back in time and watch epic battles unfold , thanks for the effort

Feeling like I watched a really good historical movie

It must've been hell, having all those arrows constantly raining down on you!
When the cataphracts appear, you know you're in trouble...

rest in peace Surena, the great Iranian General
There was no Iran. These were Scythians. Even the general was not a foreighner.
@@lilalali6753 in Parthian era the name of the country was "Aryân", the word had some changes during years and in Sâsânian era the country was called "Erân" , and now is called "Irân"
@@NaderKhorasani so at that time there was no Iran with modern Iranians. There was Parthia with Scythians in it, if I am not mistaken. Surena was not a modern Iranian by blood. Just like the modern Egyptians are not ancient Egyptians in any way.
@@lilalali6753 Surena was Iranian(Aryânian) from "Sakestân" province(nowaday Sistân province), "Sistân" means the place that many Scythians live
@@NaderKhorasani if Surena was a Parthian general looking like a Parthian, acting like a Parthian living in a place where many Scythians lived how on earth can you clame that this man was the great iranian general? I think, it is utterly disrespectful against Surena, his own identity and against those nations who are in fact descendants of the Scythians, Parthians. Is it not called stolen valor?

Beautiful ! Thank you for such a great work. It makes me proud as a Persian. we had many wars with Romans in history but they were truly out smarted in this war. The hail of arrows were merciless and had paralyzed them. Parthians are also known as Ashkani in history of Iran and they were the masters of maneuver. They were swifter than any cavalry. They could fire the arrows at a gallop not only galloping towards the enemy but also even as they galloped away from the enemy, they would turn around and they could fire back which is shown very well in this clip.

But a great victory for the Parthians!
I think back in the day the Romans would've addressed this as a travesty more then anything else
Roman empire was a big grinding mill ... they deserved this annihilation.
And a true persian victory this was
Great video! Keep up the great work!
Thanks for making this video 🙏🏻
The audio in this was amazing. I just don't understand why the game audio can't be as good. I'm talking about the general war-cry sound that's going on while the Parthians are riding toward the Romans. If you try to recreate this in game, that sound just isn't there.
I mean at the beginning it's good, but when it's just played through the whole video it sounds kinda dumb.

Hay que ser bien ignorante para pensar en esto de supremacias y lo que fuera.
✨Uno de esos cruciales aspectos que hay que considerar es que la LEGIÓN había sido diseñada para imponerse sobre los enemigos de la cuenca del Mediterráneo y de Galia y Germania. ¿Cual era la guerra que los romanos tenían que enfrentar? Pues la de los bárbaros de Galia y Germania, sin contar la de España o las islas británicas: guerreros que en masa atacaban sin concierto y disciplina y se estrellaban contra los grandes escudos romanos hasta ser apuñalados con los cortos gladius si es que sobrevivían a la andanada de pilones.
Sin embargo las legiones por lo general estaban hechos para enfrentar a galos, germanos y a otros romanos; no a una verdadera potencia como Partia.

Absolutely BRILLIANT editing my friend 👍
I've saw someone say "battle of carrhae makes agincourt look like a picnic"
In my opinion it makes agincourt look like a skirmish
The scale of Carrhae is much larger than that of Agincourt numbers wise for sure.
strange that the king killed Surena after this victory , just because was jealous ?! even Stalin was jealous on Georgy Zhukov ,the Marshal of USSR who defeated the Nazy Germany in 1945 ,but after the victory's parade of Red Army held in Moscow , just gave him a new job in a small office of a military base ,far away from Moscow...until pension...
Zhukov and Surena were mistreated by their leaders. Musa bin Nusayr is also an example who was a talented Ummayad commander who had conquered North Africa for the Muslims only to be forced retired from the army and property confiscated. He was left to beg on the streets of Damascus.
Unfortunately
A legend story emerged that the Parthians poured molten gold into the mouth of Crassus severed head as a symbol of his thirst for wealth.
Ruben Roque, that was under Sassanid reign, the dynasty that followed the Parthian empire. The king Shapur I captured Valerian, a Byzantium emperor and pour molten gold into his mouth. At Narqsh-e Rostam, in modern day Iran, in the fars province, you will find a massive sculpture depicting valerian at the foot of Shapur I. I’ve been there and I’ve seen it.
1- There is no reliable historical report on Parthians having done that to Crassus.
2- History says that after being defeated in Edessa battle, Valerian was captured and up on signing a treaty Shapur allowed him to go back to Rome. Wikipedia’s account that Valerian died in Iran, is not supported by reliable sources. So, filling his mouth with molten gold could not have happened.

This is very good indeed. Keep in mind though, the horse archers were lightly armored - if armored at all. I can’t be sure if cataphracts were armed with bows or if the notion of “cataphract archers” was even a thing in that era of Parthian rule. What I’m sure about is that the horse archers were supposed to implement hit and run and feigning rout tactics and for that matter, mobility was the top priority; hence the light armor. Cataphracts were shock troops, deployed to instill fear in enemy ranks and break their formations. To the Parthians’ surprise, this tactic didn’t have much of an impact on the Roman infantry as they were professional soldiers. They did however use the heavy cavalry to disrupt Roman testudo formations and support horse archer arrow barrage.

@@Iraniangirls2023 Romans sacked Ctesiphon couple of times after this though... Which was the Persian capital at the time.
@@teemuvesala9575 Aún así loos partos no fracasaron porque no tenían la más leve intención de invadir territorio romano. La frontera para ellos era el Eufrates y eso fue lo que al final los romanos aceptaron a regañadientes por la imposibilidad de vencer a los partos en el campo de batalla..
✨LOS ROMANOS INTENTARON INVADIR PARTIA Y FRACASARON.
Invadieron una parte del país solo para fracasar después. Partia era muy amplia y ahora se sabe que las supuestas caídas de la capital de Partia fueron inventos de los historiadores romanos que inventaron victorias que nunca acontecieron. Emperadores romanos varios solían inventar falsas victorias sobre Partia cuando en realidad los romanos se retiraban del territorio supuestamente invadido.
The hours you must have put into this, amazing!
I'm glad you like it, thank you! :)

Imagine beating one of the strongest states at the time only to get executed by your own king,wow.
The Persians say he was assassinated by the Romans for revenge.
It’s obviously that suren family was strong enough in military and surena was damn rich and after this war he was so much popular so he was a big danger for the king if he was looking for the greatest political power to be the shahanshah of Aryana or iran the king of persians medians,schytians,bacterians parthians and other people’s
Another fact that parthians were strong in front of foreign powers but weak in front of internal powers because of their power system.
@@aradsstates9584
So a foreign power should have attacked Parthians by internal side
@@Phed98 that's how Sassanids got into power, exploiting in weak tribal nomad clan based system of the Parthian government.
It is actually terrifying to march in arid land, only to see thousands of heavily armoured cataphracts mounted on massive horses and armed with 3 m long gigantic lances galloping at full speed towards you.
Thanks to the very cinematic and professional creator and designed the war armor of the Parthian soldiers very correctly
Thanks a lot mate, I'm glad you like the video and the models! :) (Huge thanks to Ancient Empires mod team)
Most beautiful and impressive video, a wonderful (and bloody) battle to play on computer...or with miniatures like us...Thumbs up, very immersive!👍👍
I'm so grateful mate, thanks a lot! :)
What a great video. I'm Iranian. I felt proud after watching this
Thanks a lot! :)
They fought for achemedia not some clown from dessert
Can you make one with Romans looking like Jews and Americans.
@@donq2957 bruh what?
Why? Parthia it was not Persia...
Awesome video! You make a good director and editor. It's also amazing how far video games have come since I was a kid. You couldn't do this with Donkey Kong or Pac Man lol.
This is a great video. Amazing.

Amazing! I’ll be making these vids soon...
Thanks for this video bro,as a perisan parthian much love to you
Wyśmienicie ,że Partowie rozgromili chciwego bandyte Crassusa i odebrali mu życie. Brawo.
Persia is my love❤
Man, it sucks to win an epic battle, then gets executed because the king got jealous...
Seems like ,that's what happen to surena
GREAT EFFIN VIDEO!!! AWESOME EDITING
Thanks a lot! :)
An outstanding video. Thank you
Thank you! :)
Man the battle was awesome with nice angles. Captures the feeling of it. Truly a great tragedy.
It's great to hear that mate, thanks a lot! :)
Ac Ze even for persian or iranian like me is tragedy how fool crassus was ,i wish two great powers never had war each other too loose so many lands to muslim arabs in the future.
You know, roman army invaded persians. it means the persians were not the villain. the were defending their lands. plus they were out numbered massively.
Even if you wanna make a movie from this, you would not put it in tragedy genres.
it's more like science fiction, history and based on true story movie. xD
Tragedy?
The clean up crew has a big job ahead of them.
Earned a new subscriber. Brilliant video

Respect to the mighty Roman army! Like this animation and of course I’m Persian 😎🇮🇹 🇮🇷

Thanks a lot for the comment! :) I'm planning to cover more battle in the future, I hope one day I can do something for WWII and WWI. :)
Thank you so much
0:20 - His name was actually Marcus Licinius Crassus, not Lucinius. Great video btw.
Yep, there might be some errors like that, before the final version there was a mistake like ''Partian Archers'' and changed it but this one I did not realize. o.o Thank you! :)
Fricking Latin and their spelling

Great Iranian general, Surena
Magnifique travail !
Amazing video. Salutes to you Sir.
Hey dude, as rise of mordor is out and there is Al the factions, could you have a go at doing the last alience battle from Lord of the rings, that would be epic
from Kenya...As a historian,I have been watching historical battles on you tube ....Alexander the Great at the battles of Granicus,Issus,Gaugamela,the Roman empire at Alesia,Cannae,Teutonberg forest etc.....the video graphics,scenes,background music,battle sounds on this epic battle between Crassus,his son Pebulius against the Parthians is one of the best.
great presentation , good joob with the video all the details are in there
Awesome videos man!
This is so real and well animated!!!!
Thanks!
Parthians were from where I live (Khorasan) before they took power over Persia
They were great warriors and talented and well trained archers
They could hit their target with their arrows while riding on their horses. There a man in Shiraz-Iran who teaches how to do like Parthians did
Well not that I'm a history nerd but I'm gonna give it a try after coronavirus crisis
Dude they were persian they just get their mother land persia(iran) back
@@odinn7597 he knows he just used the wrong verb
Amazing. I know Hollywood is never accurate but imagine if they manage to make an accurate movie of this battle! I
It would rate R +25, and not recommended for people with heart conditions!
Brilliantly animated!
this video is one true art. I lost count how many times I've watched this.
We was 10000 but romans was 40000 😊
