I'm specifically talking about medieval battles like the ones in Vikings, Spartcus and The Last Kingdom.

Spartacus was a bit before middle ages but I get ya. Battle of the Bastards for me probably

Kingdom is a Korean period drama where you have a small band of humans fighting hordes and hordes of zombies.

Good series

Weak answer, but Vikings Valhalla is way better than it deserves to be.

The Borgias. The chain shot scene in S1E8 (The Art of War) is a jaw dropper.

How is that show? It's been on my list for a while.

Dark comedy. Solid action. Excellent show.

Answers so far have all been historical, though I'd suggest the future has some good ones too (the expanse). But I'm struggling to find examples of fully pitched contemporary wars. I can think of some really cool military style opps scenes but no full fledged army on army, multi battle, out and out "wars"
I guess the new sas rogue heros qualifies

Aside from maybe Rome, I think you got all of the best shows with historical battle.
If you're looking for more Modern, Band of Brothers, The Pacific, and The Walking Dead include several.
If you're looking for sci-fi/futuristic, Star Trek, The Expanse, Battlestar Galactica, Star Wars: Rebels.

The 100 includes some large scale battles especially in the first few seasons. Sci Fi and set in the future tho but kind of medieval like battles

There were a couple good ones in Game of Thrones.
