A proposito di questo titolo

In this episode, Lucas and Luna dive into the gritty, three-year Siege of Acre (1189–1191), the pivotal battle of the Third Crusade that broke the crusader kingdom's back before Richard the Lionheart and Philip II Augustus even arrived. They explore the relentless naval blockade, the ingenious use of trebuchets like the 'Bad Neighbor,' and the brutal massacre of 2,700 Muslim prisoners that stained Richard's reputation. The conversation touches on Conrad of Montferrat's cunning defense of Tyre, the diplomatic chess match between Richard and Saladin, and how the fall of Acre set the stage for the fateful march to Jaffa. Lucas also reveals lesser-known details: the role of the Genoese and Pisan fleets, the desperate relief convoys from Egypt, and the origins of the Hospitaller and Templar orders' wartime logistics. This episode offers a granular view of medieval siege warfare, from sapper tunnels to the grisly reality of contagion in camp, all while keeping the human stakes front and center.
