a5c7b9f00b Actor and fight director Peter Woodward explores various forms of competition throughout the ages, reenacting historic fights with the help of a stunt team. Episodes have focused on topics ranging from gladiator matches to 17th-century dueling to modern air combat. I hope the history channel will offer this on DVD soon. It is a great Series and should be available. If they don't they are missing out on a big sale item. My family and friends all enjoyed this show while it was on and we always got together to watch it. We especially enjoyed the Pirate episode. He was the perfect host. We just always found the extras to be rather clueless lot. I mean when he had the show on ninjas and one of the "students" said "I thought that was a motorcycle." You could se the distaste on his face at having to say that line. We roared at that. It was both fun and educational. We really miss this show. If They won't bring it back they should at least offer it for purchase. I've caught most every ep, and enjoyed them. I especily liked the ep's on matchlock, flintlock and percussion weapons ( all in one ep). And the show on Civil War rifles. I have a reproduction "Zouave" carbine in .58 caliber, and can attest to this bullers power. When you hold one of those minie balls in your hand you can easily imagine the devastation it can bring. Sorry got off topic. Conquest is a fun show with people getting to do what I'd like to do…
