By: Unwardil. on 20 Nov 08, 05:13:44 Indeed, they had rifles, but while they were much more accurate it took a long time for them to catch on in wide use for a number of reasons. Primarilly, they were no more use than a musket in massed volley fire because all the smoke produced by massed musketry obscures the sights and after the first shot, you're firing blind anyway, so who cares if it's accurate, speed is the key and the musket is much faster to load by about half as old rifles needed to have the balls wrapped in leather. Simon: Well I was ... By: NGS712. on 14 Nov 08, 22:43:54 Simon: Well I was pretty sure there were rifled muskets back then. I mean, I'm no weapons expert but I knew that it wasn't too uncommon. At the time, you'd ... By: SimonLMoore. on 14 Nov 08, 22:28:14 At the time, you'd be right, guns with rifling were termed rifled muskets the term musket siurviving to show military use, rifles being sporting/hunting weapons( they were also known as rifled carbines if of smaller bore and used by the cavalry). The Prussian army was a pioneer of the use of rifled muskets at the time though they had been around in civilian use as hunting weapons since the mid-15th century.

By: scoreJ6. on 16 Nov 08, 18:09:34 That's correct according to Wikipedia with it being a "pyrrhic victory," but the battle in the film combines Cowpens and Guilford Courthouse with the victor from the former but elements of the latter.

By: slizzler1. on 01 Nov 08, 02:22:37 luniusPalladus- did you miss the part where Napoleon refers to 'glory' -'fresh glories' 'power' - that is all about ambition. Wellington and Blucher never considered themselves glorious for beating Napoleon at Waterloo. Yes- my point is he ... By: slizzler1. on 01 Nov 08, 02:20:15 Yes- my point is he was actually bled dry of manpower- if he's reduced to forcing kids to fight in his army do you really think a levee en masse would yield anything significant except rabble and the equivalent of Russian long pole-armed militia units.Those would be 'soldiers' that would be good for nothing. No, I see your ... By: IuniusPalladius. on 30 Oct 08, 17:06:04 No, I see your point. I just think you're wrong. :-) Your nation is beset by enemies on all sides, of course you're going to fight. Napoleon actually resisted extremes measures like the levee en masse reminiscent of the Revolution, even though there was support to do just that. You're bringing up ... By: IuniusPalladius. on 30 Oct 08, 17:02:22 You're bringing up arguments I never made, but I can't bring up other nations? I never said anything Napoleon being a champion of liberty, though I suppose for his era he was, at least compared to his opponents. The monarchies didn't view Napoleon as a power hungry madman--they viewed him as the embodiment of the Revolution, trying to spread its ideals--it's why they fought him so hard. Bringing up other nations just shows France wasn't unique in having slaves--or suppressing them. Napoleon did fight ... By: slizzler1. on 28 Oct 08, 20:57:38 Napoleon did fight his best campaign in 1814 but it was all for a lost cause -his soldiers weren't infatiguable machines. He shouldn't have kept going as he did - and again you miss my point- what kind of leader conscriptr by force, 15,16 year old boys to join a suicidal effort. He's not much better than current warlord West African chiefs forcing kids into militias. You're saying ... By: slizzler1. on 28 Oct 08, 20:54:41 You're saying Napoleon was a champion for liberty. Why do you bring up other nations as if that salvages Napoleon as for liberty when in fact he sent an army to crush the slave rebellion- the true Frenchmen of Liberty actually were a small group of French citizens who joined the rebellion to fight against Napoleon's army. The monarchies knew Napoleon was a power hungry madman.They wanted restore the monarchy seeing what a shambles the Revolution had become;although the rich deserved guillotine. The U.S. had slave ... By: IuniusPalladius. on 27 Oct 08, 22:18:23 The U.S. had slave plantations, the UK had slaves in its colonies, Russia had serfs--your point? I didn't say he had a thirst for conquest, I agreed he needed it to maintain power because the monarchies would not leave France alone. The same liberty put them on the throne as put any monarch on the throne: the power to do so. He nearly won in 1814, it wasn't a lost cause. And what do generals' titles have to do with anything? I was responding to a childish comparison of Hitler and Napoleon. France had slave ... By: slizzler1. on 27 Oct 08, 19:52:02 France had slave plantations on Haiti. Yon admit then Napoleon had a thirst for glory conquest and power-so much so he deserted the army in Egypt! Which system of liberty was in operation whereby citizens had vote to put Napoleon's Brother on the throne of Spain, and Murat the King of Naples. What passive leader conscripts young teenage boys to fight in a war [1814] that ultimately and knowingly would be lost? Let's not forget the various titles Napoleon distributed amongst his generals.

By: IuniusPalladius. on 27 Oct 08, 17:03:12 Reoccupying Haiti which France owned long before Napoleon. Egypt, a general of France on a mission of conquest, kind of like Wellington in India. What about Italy? When he freed it from Austrian domination? Portugal was an ally of England and was trading with England. So he planned to invade England. He was at war with England--a war England started. Occupation of the German states after Austria attacked France. And sure, once he won, he put his people on the thrones. This helps you how? "My power depends ... By: slizzler1. on 26 Oct 08, 21:27:03 "My power depends on my glory and my glories on the victories I have gained. My power will fall if I do not base it on fresh glories and new victories. Conquest has made me what I am, and conquest alone can enable me to maintain my position." --Napoleon want the rest? ...

By: Lafayette912. on 26 Oct 08, 19:32:50 Btw France atcually recovered, by 1870 France was the most powerful nation in europe, but it's recovery took time, more than enough to let the new German nation rise... I believe a victory at Waterloo could have stopped the outbreak of WWI, and thus WWII, as Germany could have hardly been able to rise it did... No. When Napoleon ... By: IuniusPalladius. on 24 Oct 08, 14:24:25 No. When Napoleon came to power in France, France was already at war. When he managed to broker the Peace of Amiens, the English broke it, waging war against France again and convincing the Austrians and Russians to attack France in 1805. The Austrians attacked France in 1809. Even the Russian campaign was a preemtive strike against Russian preparations to attack the Empire. The only place you can make an argument is in Spain but for the rest, no. Ah ah question that ...

By: LlianeLeFey. on 23 Oct 08, 12:02:22 I think, the comparism between Napoleon and Hitler is not so wrong. After all, both wanted to conquer all or Europe. Both did not manage to restrain themselvers. Both had a lot of military successes early on. Both let their armies (unneccessarily) persish at russia, in a war, they could not win. Last but not least: Both destroyed the power base of the nations they lead. France lost quite a lot and never really recovered after 1815. VIVE LA FRANCE et ...

The British were fighting during those wars against France to make Europe safe for monarchy, they weren't fighting for liberty. Si Ney et Groutchy ... By: BrusselsSouth. on 21 Oct 08, 02:07:59 Si Ney et Groutchy n'avaient pas raté à détruire l'armée prusse, alors la victoire etait à nous ! Napoleon a battu Wellington.

Wellington was at the Hougoumont area personally directing British Guard reinforcements to be committed into saving Hougoumont for a few hours-he never rallied Bylandt's brigade that was half a battlefield away during such a crucial phase at Hougoumont. away. Third point is that ... By: slizzler1. on 08 Jul 08, 18:01:47 Third point is that the initial statement of '10,000' Dutch running away being false, your latest source-quote is accurate... some Dutch/Belgians did retreat/rout... but others stood, and others were rallied to take part in the counter attack against D'Erlon. Several british witnesses state this -one being your quote. Many people prefer to use the 'booing' by Brits witnessing the retreat as a superiority thing but remember Pictons unit was deployed in reverse slope and in cover from cannonade. Secondly, ... By: slizzler1. on 08 Jul 08, 17:51:35 Secondly, Wellington was over in the Hougoumont area during D'Erlon's attack. Uxbridge was in general command of the 'Picton area'.He himself was busy in the British cavalry counter charge. I'm taking the following from several detailed sources about the Dutch-Belgians at Waterloo;Remember too the Dutch were 200yds ahead of Picton's unit, so when the French were coming on in their columns of 8 battalions massed in lines, Bylandt faced huge odds-alone-and after sustaining the Grand Battery fire. Several mistakes ... By: slizzler1. on 08 Jul 08, 17:36:20 Several mistakes there- I initially thought you were referring to the English right in your reference, but now that you mention Bylandt's Brigade there are several things I can factually point out to you as incorrect of your inititial statement.The Bylandt's Brigade was not 10,000 in number at Waterloo it numbered 3233 men.There were NO other Dutch/Belgians in the area where D'Erlon attacked except on the extreme Allied left wing in the fortress farmhouses and a Dutch Cavalry brigade behind. Wellington himself ... By: 24878281. on 07 Jul 08, 14:05:42 Wellington himself had to go and raleigh them again. Hi slizzler, ... By: 24878281. on 07 Jul 08, 14:04:37 Hi slizzler, couldnt find the actual quote but in the battle by barbero page 177 quotes "When the first french regiment, the 105th Ligne, appeared before them, most of the dutch stopped fighting and ran away. Only the belgiun battalion the seventh, remained in position and kept firing, while the last of kempts brigade ran to their left, where they could see the french better advancing along their flank and clearing the hedges" I will keep pluging away and find other quotes, especially when Hi again 24878,just ... By: slizzler1. on 07 Jul 08, 12:05:11 Hi again 24878,just wondering if you found the quotes-I didn't see it in Howarth's book.Also alot of redcoats would've been escorting the French prisoners from D'Erlons corps back to Brussels;perhaps I'm guessing from the Hanoverian units next to Picton,being low grade troops and not crucial to being on the battlefield- and Picton's Division had alot of casualties in that episode-so doubtless alot of redcoats going back.Also there were no Dutch formations 10,000 strong-they were smaller units. Yes- no-one would ... By: slizzler1. on 28 Jun 08, 19:43:33 Yes- no-one would dare run when he was about either...... He had astonishing luck not getting hit with all the front-line riding around risks he took- truly a brave man- all his staff officers following him were dropping like flies -when they could keep up with him AND Copenhagen -a true war-horse.

I won't say British ... By: slizzler1. on 28 Jun 08, 19:36:02 I won't say British UNITS retreated from the field but there's no doubt many individuals 'vacated' the battlefield likely in assisting the seriously wounded and escorting thousands of French prisoners back north -Next day's casualty tallies would indicate alot of the front line Brit units had more missing during the battle than casualties when reading British soldier's personal accounts that indicated how many men stood in their units ranks near battle's end. any time.

By: 24878281. on 28 Jun 08, 12:20:06 My sources are Alessandro Barbero, The Battle, David Howarth, Waterloo a near run thing. Richard Garrett, a clash of arms. The number mentioned who fled the field was 10,000 of belgiun, dutch pesuasion, and British troops booed and hissed them as they ran. Give me a while and i will quote the pages. Yes Hanoverians wore Red and i am sure it would of been them that fleed, but as i quoted a lot did return. I have never seen it written anywhere that British trops retired from the field at One kind of ... By: slizzler1. on 28 Jun 08, 10:29:57 One kind of funny-not really though- episode was when Uxbridge thought he was leading a cavalry charge of Dutch versus one of the retiring French cavalry attacks. I think it was an aide that called out to him to alert him that he started charging alone since the dutch cav. unit refused to move. As you know the entire Hanoverian Cumberland Hussars trotted off. Poor Bylandt's unit had every reason to retreat from their forgotten exposed position just 500yds away from the 84 gun French battery. Re: 10,000 Dutch ... By: slizzler1. on 28 Jun 08, 10:25:18 Re: 10,000 Dutch fled the field; I'm curious as to your source/units and the time that occurred. There's no doubt a huge number in thousands of men deserted the battlefield but they were going back in dribs and drabs and no doubt Brits and Hanoverians amongst them. Muffling stated seeing redcoats moving away from the battle. Also Brit front line units were skeletal but their casualty rates show no such decimation which meant some were leaving without orders and not returning. But I suppose at ... By: slizzler1. on 28 Jun 08, 10:10:59 But I suppose at that point it was all over -Napoleon had no reserves nor any cavalry or artillery power left to counter the Prussians sweeping across the entire east side of the battlefield with three unstoppable revenge thirsty corps and an abundance of cavalry/ Uhlans.

By: slizzler1. on 28 Jun 08, 10:07:40 Actually they attacked in several columns and EACH column was equally smashed- only one column attacking into the ridge center did do their notorious pushing back the very very weakened brigade of Halkett and the Brunswickers in nearby support,but Wellington had brought up Chasse's Dutch from the reserve line and this numerically strong, fresh unit decimated the Imp.Guard's brief penetration into the center.Had the Guard columns pushed up the center at 6:30 after La Haye sainte fell,-who knows! the field at ...

I know they were formed as a bodyguard and tactical reserve, but they were not seen in action till the climax of the Battle. Interesting fact when the Guard retreated at the ridge, it was the first time they had ever retreated without been ordered to do so.

By: GermanConquistador08. on 14 Nov 08, 22:46:55 True, even if we had just a slightly quilified person we would have won, we didn't NEED a genius like Friedrich to win the war, but if we did, we would have CRUSHED the allies. Also yes, Austrians could never be Germans, for one, they were conquered somwhat by the Romans, they were not in the Holy Roman Empire which was all German states, except for a few Italian ones, since they didn't follow the rules of electorship, and some other cultural things. Prussia was still a great kingdom though. Very true,the ... By: sl0cheetah. on 14 Nov 08, 17:28:51 Very true,the Prusai were no German tribe, in fact they became nearly extinct in the middle ages,thanks to the Teutonic Knights. And Germany didn't need Frederic in WW2 - just the absence of this untalented painter. For the record, Austrians and Germans differ very much. An Austrian will never be a German,also they are too racist. All the evil of the World Wars came from there. Austria shouldn't 've been treated like a victim and Prussia not like the cause in 1945,it was the other way around. rubish rubish ...

Here shown the Battle of Leuthen (5.Dec. 1757) - a tactical masterpiece from the very marching order to the ultimate crushing infantry charge (here the grenadiers charging Leuthen's churchyard, defended by Rot-Würzburg troops)and roaring cavallry assaults (von Driesen cuirassiers - here not shown).

But he did get Germany on it's feet. Fredrich preched religious tolerance, but he did partly destory Prussia, but unlike Hitler he was able to revive it and put it at the top.

By: britishjohn04. on 10 Nov 08, 16:36:44 I disagree, if we can assume that some sort of democratic institution had been conceded to the 13 colonies, (in much the same way it was to the white dominions) then I don't think there would have been another uprising. Indian's are culturally very different from white, English speaking, Christian Americans.

By: honeyroastpenut. on 10 Nov 08, 16:29:36 It may have made some difference perhaps... but the americas would not have taken the land by force for the same reason you never heard of a sepoy regiment serving in the peninsula war, or any canadian regiments (before 1812, when america invaded canada).

By: britishjohn04. on 09 Nov 08, 19:18:12 Well Maybe I am being a little over enthusiastic. You cannot deny though, that by the 20th century, things would have looked very favourable for the English speaking Empire. You talk about trade as though it is separate from power. Trade equals money, money equals power. The Industrial might of this nation would also make it a superpower. Instead of the Louisiana purchase, American's would have took the land by force, (assuming the Napoleonic war still happened). highly doubt it, ... By: honeyroastpenut. on 09 Nov 08, 18:58:56 highly doubt it, british colonies, dominions, and her empire sprang up from trade areas. How did we come about with possesion of India? Essentially it was to protect our trade bases, and remove the threat of the mahrattas. Having beaten them, we were left in possesion of India pretty much.

By: NapoleonI1805. on 02 Aug 08, 20:53:54 War was much more glorious in those days, wouldn't you agree? The colours, the formations, the sprit, the up front and personal way of fighting. Don't get me wrong, war isn't the greatest thing in the world, but war today is too far and sneaky. Airplanes, nukes, guns that are accurated 2 miles away, war isn't what is used to be, and what it should be. Ah, the days of old, how could we have forgotten their beauty? Rifles were ... By: NapoleonI1805. on 02 Aug 08, 20:51:04 Rifles were expensive to produce in that era of history, as they were still in the beginning stages of mass production. That's why the regular troops did not possess rifled barrels, only specialized battalions did. Personally, I much prefer this age of warfare than any other, especially today's way of fighting. You do understand though, that those "stupid formations" were absoluted needed so that massed volleys of fire could hopefully find its mark. Aversion to Murder? It's war, for pete's sake. lol french... By: majortuff. on 25 Jul 08, 01:47:13 lol french... hmm why didn't they ... By: blaisejones. on 23 Jul 08, 05:56:12 hmm why didn't they just issue everyone rifles? they should have gotten over their silly aversion to "murder" once they made those special rifle units. then they probably wouldn't need stupid formations.

By: IForgottenHopeI. on 27 Jan 08, 03:06:36 The myth would have us believe that the majourity of the British officers were aristocratic and the landed gentry is just that a myth. In 1809 for ex just 140 officers were peers or sons of peers and half of these were in the Cavalry and Guards. The majourity of British officers hailed from the proffessional classes which encompassed anyone from gentry, doctors, lawyers, and tradsmen. These individuals would lead their men from hell and back if need be! That the British ... By: IForgottenHopeI. on 27 Jan 08, 03:05:57 That the British army possessed a number of woefully incompetent officers cannot be denied. However these were far outnumbered by sound, high quality divisional abd brigade level commanders such as picton, Graham, Hill, Colborne, Cole, Le Marchant, and Robert Craufurd. These were followed by numerous superb regimental officers who were revered by their men and to whom nothing but the highest respect and obedience were given.

By: krips22. on 07 Mar 08, 11:28:25 Wrong : the hispano-brittish forces were generally outnumbering the French forces on the battlefield. As for the population differences, this is middle-age, we are not talking conscription armies here.

Most of it was either English or allied to the English. I don't see how ... By: Conqueror1234. on 04 Mar 08, 20:57:40 I don't see how that is at odds with what I said. In the Seven Years' War, it can hardly be argued that Britain would've won without Prussia (barring some world war 2-esque holdout on their island). Prussia was actually more steadfast an opponent to Napoleon than Austria and Russia as Prussia never allied with him, whereas the two formers, as you mentioned, did enter into formal alliances. Either way, they outnumbered Napoleon regardless. I disagree. In ... By: Goathead82. on 04 Mar 08, 10:36:01 I disagree. In the Seven Years' War France was allied with, Austria, Spain, Russia, Sweden, the Italian states, Saxony. In the other camp it was Britain, Prussia and Portugal. The bulk of the Napoleonic Wars saw Britain, Austria and Russia as the only steadfast opponents of France - even that changed from time to time, with both Russia and Austria becoming allies of the Corsican dictator. Others changed sides depending what way the wind blew. in my opinion ...

By: Conqueror1234. on 29 Jan 08, 17:37:34 Don't forget France was fighting most of Europe at that time, as well. The overall population between the alliances was heavily in favor of England.
