Tivo'd this pair of shows on Sunday, and they're quite interesting. May be of general interest to RoN players:
Fire Ships
Sailing the Mediterranean was once a dangerous endeavor. Roaming the seas for 500 years was a vessel that inspired dread—the fireship. Invented by the Byzantines, this battleship was stocked with incendiary firing catapults and a monster flame thrower.
Chariots of War
The city state of Assyria regained its lost empire. With a formidable army of chariots they rapidly dominated the Near East. Experts attempt to recreate the chariots of the Assyrian military machine, following the changes in design over 300 years.
