Episode 05 - Early Modern Warfare

Anthology Episode 1.

So this week we're taking a break from our story to turn our attention to how nations fought between the 15th and 18th centuries, and what they used. The arrival of the matchlock musket to Europe didn't kick off an arms race at first, but within a century or so, muskets and rifles would come to dominate on the battlefield, making wars deadlier and irreversibly transforming the social and political structure of the continent. It's also letting me test out a new format, including using actual music as well as SFX. So feedback would be super appreciated!
