The Highland Charge - The Famous Shock Tactic of the Scottish Clans

The Highland Charge was the shock tactic that scored the Scottish clans of the 17th and 18th centuries a reputation as fearless and fierce fighters. But this charge is usually only known for its disastrous application at the Battle of Culloden in 1746. It was recently quite well depicted in the TV-Series Outlander, which we’ll use along side our own artwork at some points in the video for illustrational purposes. All in all it must be emphasized that the Highland charge was not as unsuccessful as Culloden might suggest. Actually, it proved to be a real challenge to the British government troops and scored the Highlanders several victories on the battlefield. In this video, we ask what made this tactic so effective and how exactly it worked. Patreon (thank you):   / sandrhomanhistory   Paypal (thank you: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/SandR...
