How important was luck?
Episode 161
Published 4 years, 7 months ago
Description
Alex, part of our patreon community asks 'how much do you feel that luck played a role in ancient combat? Theoretically luck would be more of a factor in the gunpowder age, but I can't imagine worse luck than being a Roman at Cannae. Low chance of survival, no matter your martial skill. Thoughts?'
Jasper is busy this week so Murray is flying solo.
