Brilliant idea to use this narrative style. This 3-part series also added extra details to my understanding of Caesar's Gallic campaign. I hope to hear more Roman history from your channel. 👍
@@reborninflames2188 Thank you brother! Much more Roman material in the works. We're currently working on Marcus Aurelius' 'Meditations' - and of course we'll publish the remaining books in this series.
I love this, Caesar’s writing style isn’t hard to follow, but this makes it so digestible. One thing that leaped off the page at me was the part where he takes their camp and finds the itemized census showing their forces in Greek. Caesar thinks nothing of that detail, but they were keeping their important records in Greek, I find that fascinating for everything it implies.
My grandfather gave me his school primer which was Latin on one page and English on the facing page, that was my introduction to the Gallic Wars, this summer I was able to listen to this with three of my grandchildren. Thank you so much!
@@TheLegendaryLore Gotcha, thanks. I've been using stable diffusion but it seems midjourney does a wonderful job. Looking forward to more of your videos!
@@gamecockbutterfly1621 MJ is fantastic, but Stable Diffusion inpaining is a great tool for correcting small errors and making minor edits to MJ output. Thank you for watching, much more to come!
@@TheLegendaryLore The images do look good, but I'm not so sure that the source material it has selected is appropriate. None of the helmets or half-plate and segmented armour is historical. The brigandine isn't too far off but there's no sign yet (15 minutes in) of mail, which would have been by far the most common type of armour worn by many of the Gauls and almost all of the Roman legionaries in this period.
@@RichWoods23 You're right. The images themselves are not in any way made to be historically accurate. There's not enough non-copyrighted material out there to produce quality long-form videos with interesting visuals without utilizing AI. We *are* planning to change that in the future by training the AI ourselves, but there's only 24 hours in the day 😄
A suggestion : mapping all these mouvements throughout the story would have been useful, and that's coming from a guy who lives in and knows well the lands in question
While going through the video again, I noticed I've pronounced "Helvetii" inconsistently. My apologies for any confusion this may have caused.

Great! I'll be looking forward to it.@@TheLegendaryLore

Amazing I wish I can be able to have that ,it'll take a lot of luck
The village shown near Bretagne has earned my sub. Your narration has solidified it. Excellent work!
Thank you, friend! I love that you noticed the indomitable village 😄
This is fantastic and great. You just earned a subscriber😊. You should do more modern rendition on ancient works, a niche category.
Thank you, brother! I appreciate your support and kind words. Many more works are coming soon :)
Yeah this channel is gonna start blowing up soon. Good content
Excellent work. Many thanks
American here. I have heard of the rivers, but I wish you had highlighted the rivers or at least made a cursor run along them as you named them.
You make a very valid point I'll make sure to do that in my next videos. Thanks for the valuable feedback!
@@TheLegendaryLorety
Awesome project. Are you using GPT-3.5 or GPT-4?
Oh, i can hardly wait until Vercingetorix comes on the scene. There's never been another unkempt hooligan quite like Vercingetorix.
Gallia est omnia divisa in partes tres - imagine Gaul as a big pie cut into three slices. Yep, sounds exactly like ol' Julius would say it.
Wonderful artwork for this series. Would you be willing to share what model you use for these generations? They have turned out great.
Thank you friend. Most of the images in this video are made with Midjourney 5.2.

This enrages AND thrills me.
Tell me more!
Fantastic artwork! Who does it / generates it?
Thank you, friend. Most is generated by yours truly in Midjourney and Stable Diffusion. Edits and illustrations are done in GIMP.
@@TheLegendaryLore Awesome! Thanks!
Just curious is the channel name inspired by the Dungeons and Dragons book: Legends and Lore? :-)
Let me see now ....oh yes: as I recall all Gaul is divided into three parts for convenience sake. the first part, the second part and the third.

Also the Saône river is rather pronounced Sone or Saune ;-)
Thank you for the constructive feedback. Highly appreciated! I'll keep it in mind for the upcoming videos.
I named my dog Titus Labienus after this conflict. I just call him Titus though.
Oh I read Garlic war. This isn't that.
