The Battle of Towton took place on 29 March 1461 during the Wars of the Roses, near Towton in North Yorkshire, and has the dubious distinction of being probably the largest and bloodiest battle on English soil . Fought for ten hours between an estimated 50,000 soldiers in a snowstorm on Palm Sunday, the Yorkist army achieved a decisive victory over their Lancastrian opponents. As a result, Edward IV deposed the Lancastrian Henry VI and secured the English throne. • Source - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_... • Game - Total War Attila • Music by: MrDinko • Channel: [ / @mrdinko ] • Song Name: A War Without End • 00:00 Introduction • 00:42 York's Army • 01:54 Battle Location • 02:18 Lancaster's Initial Moves • 03:02 York begins the battle • 03:20 Skirmish begins • 04:56 Lancaster moves forward • 05:54 Lancaster cavalry engages • 06:12 The armies clash • 06:43 Edward joins the battle • 07:41 Norfolk arrives • 08:58 Lancaster's army breaks • 09:16 York pursues Lancaster • 09:52 Battle at the river • 11:19 Lancaster's men hunted down
