The Ghost Warriors

The Ghost Warriors

Available on Pluto TV
S1 E2: They were the elite special forces of ancient Germany; a fanatical corps of proud and independent warriors trained to fight at night. They would appear out of nowhere, sowing fear and panic among their enemies. They were known as the 'Ghost Warriors'. In the first century AD they fought the might of the Roman Empire. The result still resounds through history. In the late summer of AD 9, in a carefully prepared ambush, they massacred three entire Roman legions. The Battle of Teutoberg Forest was among Imperial Rome's greatest ever military defeats. Rome never attempted to conquer Germania again.
