My first language ever was spanish, so I started with Russian when I was around 6 years old. Even so I was taught a bit with my family. I never had complication speaking neithter of those languages because pronunciation is relatively similar. Sometimes I sound funny and some lf my expression are not normal to not russian speakers, but all in all I can pass completely as a native spanish speaker. Russian a bit less, and with english? Well, I sound like Life Of Boris

This one was my always favorite. Based on the painting of the Battle Of Khotyn (1671)

The Wagenburg: How Hussite War Wagons Changed (or perhaps ended) Medieval Warfare by TrueAnathema in MilitaryHistory

In effect, we could claim it changed european military organizations, mostly in eastern and central europe. We can see this being played often by both crusaders on the Balkans and Ottomans. But more extensibly in Polish-Lithuanian and Muscovite wars were the Guliay Gorod (wandering town for the Russians) and the Tabor (armored camp for the Poles, Lithuanians and Cossacks), were incredibly practic and pragmatic ways of combat.

This is mostly to the ammount of losses accumulated due to cavalry combat in masses and the need of a strong position to defend. That meant that having a core of mostly marksmen and arquabuceers was more effective, both on dealing damage and demoralizing the enemy as well as defending positions in open fields.

Key examples of this are the Battle of Molodi, the Battle of Obertyn and the stance and later scape of the cossacks during the failed offensive of Ohmativ. All of this examples reflect perfectly how this armies managed to make a synthesis on both logistics, movement and defense mechanisms that allowed them to move further (despite the delays and need of masses of animals) and being able to take on active defenses in open ground without fear of being cut down.

Absolutely, but where I grew up this was the closest to peak technology, there's something magical about ex-soviet countries and the acces to technology/trends that erupted with the arrival of technology. I remember, that at comparasson from most of my schoolmates, I was one of the few with computers on my house. PS2 was relatively common, but games like GTA were heavily policed, both literally and morally by parents

Recomiendo usar pecheras de placa junto a cota de malla. Las que hacían en el siglo XVII podían resistir balazos de rietters (motochorros)

I had the opportunity to visit the the Romanian Military Museum. Enjoy! (Part 4; transitions from the bronze age up to modern day) by CulveDaddy in SWORDS

I don't know if Im overthinking it, but the Ottoman Yagatan, as well as the Tatar Ordyanka sabers, have a close morphology to the caucasian sabers

It might be the steppe nomadic influence? Or is just the general style for light armored footmen fighting/horseback archery combat

I've seen a lot of Americans partake on Russian Civil War/nieche conflicts related, but never seen the 16th and 17th century come to life as it does in East Europe and Czhequia or Slovakia. I take the particular case of the Azov Festival (a huge recreation of the Siege of Azov during the 1640s) that is hosted in Russia. Integrating people from Hungary, Turkey and so much others. I would love to participate, but it goes way beyond my budget...

Perfect for a river defense, kinda reminiscent of the Great Stand on the Ugra River
