William Wallace didn't lead an army—he led a collective scream. This is the true story of the 'mechanical advantage' at Stirling and the 'rain of iron' at Falkirk. See how the lore of a giant met the reality of a butcher.
In this deep dive, we deconstruct the anatomy of two fields: the "Kill-Box" at Stirling Bridge and the rain of iron at Falkirk. This is the 5-minute true story of how William Wallace—the "ghost of the Selkirk forest"—was eventually traded for a bag of silver by those he once trusted.
Inside this Tactical Breakdown:
The Kill-Box: How Wallace used the geography of the River Forth to trap 5,000 English soldiers crossing two-by-two.
The Schiltron: The formation of pikes that stopped the heavy horse, but met its match in the "Rain of Iron" from Welsh Longbows.
The Price of a Handshake: The bitter act of betrayal by Sir John Menteith that brought the legend to Smithfield in chains.
