By: Paranomasia12. on 26 May 12, 12:57:07
That scene isn't entirely accurate but that was only a skirmish and you only see part of it. In that age, the tactics you would appreciate would not have won war.? Troops in skirmish formation (the one you'd advocate), though able to take cover and use initiative, were vulnerable to cavalry and could not hold ground against advancing infantry columns. Line infantry provided the anchor for skirmishers and cavalry to retreat to if threatened.

By: WolfDiamond123. on 22 May 12, 18:30:34
I don't need historical knowledge to make a critique that marching towards the enemy like shown in the link is a strategy that got a lot people unnecessarily killed. and I believe you can make a critique without knowing SPECIFIC information on a particular subject, i'm just giving an opinion. i wish we could rewind the clocks and put u into the many of the useless and foolish raids over no? mans land during WW1, then your opinion be different

By: Paranomasia12. on 22 May 12, 14:55:18
Common sense dictates that in an era where the standard firearm had a range of about a hundred? yards and accuracy was about 75% in noncombat situations that you would need to put as much fire on a target as possible and the only way you could do this is with massed volleys. Those commands weren't stupid. You SHOULD know more about ANY subject before criticizing it.

By: crapatev. on 20 May 12, 22:01:32
Mistake in the video blurb: It's not a British infantry company but an Irish one. The English have a bizarre Machiavellian skill of making other, braver peoples fight for them, and then claim any victories as glory for England. E.g. Waterloo - only a small minority of the Allies? were English. Of course, in return for the Irish fighting for England, the English then starved a million-plus Irish men, women and children to death. Lovely people, the English.

You do need ...
By: ImperialKnightmareth. on 20 May 12, 17:39:31
You do need knowledge about the subject. For example without the knowledge you wouldn't know about how many rounds the British cold fire per minute (3) with 2 lines? of men. Nations such as France and Prussia couldn't match 3 rounds per minute. A British formation could march forward to a enemy formation and start firing at 3 rounds a minute while the enemy struggled to reach 2 rounds which means that the British line is putting out nearly twice as much as their foe which means the enemywilroute

By: WolfDiamond123. on 19 May 12, 17:03:35
keyword, "marched." the obvious and more effective strategy would have been to "manoeuvre" or "flank" the enemy, not walk in a straight line tog get close the? generals of these times (and long after, like WW1 for example, which Kubrick masterfully exemplifies in Path of Glory) were inconsiderate to their solders lives and gave out absurd commands, such as "marching towards the enemy to get close enough to get a good shot." That's just retarded and inconsiderate, no matter how you put it.

By: ImperialKnightmareth. on 19 May 12, 10:10:57
How can you possibly think that? You clearly know nothing about how the line formation works, it's about about many? rounds you can get out a minute and the British Army at the time could fire 3-4 rounds a minute which is just insane, the whole idea is about discipline and firing. The term "hold the line"? comes from line infantry well "holding the line formation". A good example of this would be invasion of Quebec where 2 lines of British Line infantry fired calmly in line formation androuted em

Rod Steiger wanted the movie to be called "Napolean" because he had most of the screen time. Well, screen time of mostly yelling and sweating "Where is Grouchy?" Christopher Plummers' Wellington is an excellent depiction of what the man was like: confident, to a fault; gentile, to a fault; and, potentially, a bloody liar about the course of the battle at Waterloo. Curious that in? his dispatches, Wellington declared that the battle was done by the time Blucher arrived.

France allied? with Russia to eventually force a two front war. They were just biding their time.

The Kaiser wasn't the brightest bulb in the box either. It still amazes me how such a minor conflict between a dwindling Great power and an insiginificant country in the balkans could have turned into a war involving the entirety of the European Continent. What's funnier is how they redrew the map just lobbing people that hate each other into Yugoslavia, resurected Poland after over two centuries, created Baltic states, and then stole everything from the Turks.Oh? and Czechoslvakia.

The French "won" World War 1, which was nothing more? than the French trying to get vengeance on Germany for Alsace-Lorraine and to maintain the balance of Europe and nothing more. In reality, WWI was the most pointless war ever, given how minor the conflict should have been. A minor conflict between Serbia and Austria-Hungary, then Russia, then Germany, then France, then England and finally the United States. I still think France's main motivation was vengeance.

"The enemy is there and I'm going to strike them", "If we can defeat or drive the armies of the enemy from the field we shall have peace" Lee to Ewell about Stuart "I have instructed him to guard your flank and keep you appraised of the movements of the enemy." Whatever sentiments he may have felt for his former comrades? they were in armed opposition to him, Lee was not naive.

By: Shafeone. on 19 Nov 11, 23:05:58
You seem to confuse rumor with fact. The Confederates believed that there were 8,000 pair of shoes at Gettysburg. Heth in his own after battle report offered that his expedition on June 30 was to get shoes (that story was around before Foote was born). It doesn't mean the shoes were there. Rebs were in enemy territory with no recon. ? You seem obsessed with whether the shoes really were there. It doesn't matter. The Rebs thought they were there and that's what dictated their action.

By: pvtvice. on 19 Nov 11, 20:03:37
Sorry, look it up. Shelby Foote said he just made it up. "Historians" borrow facts from each other all the time. Foote wrote it, Sears repeated it. Again, look up Adams County Business in 1863.? There were no shoe mfg. shops. None. Made up "fact". I don't ever recall the conversations you cite in anything I've ever read about the battle.

Grant was more ...
By: Beaviz81. on 11 Nov 11, 17:44:56
Grant was more pragmatic than Lee. Many hail him as the first great modern general, and Lee as the last great general of the Napoleonic age. JJ often put up positions which Sherman just avoided. JJ was so supreme as a defensive general so that a great general like Sherman didn't foolishly assault his defenses. Instead he concentrated on circumventing the defenses of JJ. Which he did. If I admonish JJ of? anything, then it's his failure to use the cavalry.

Same can be said ...
By: Shafeone. on 11 Nov 11, 17:23:19
Same can be said for Grant. Grant I think was the most brillian general of the war in that he got that this was a new era and modern war was upon us. He knew exactly how to? beat Lee and did so within 11 months of taking the field against him. The Johnston v. Sherman battles before Atlanta were great theatre, like two equally matched and skilled proze fighters dancing around each other unable to land a killing blow. Johnston was wonderful...as was Sherman.

Lee for me was a ...
By: Beaviz81. on 11 Nov 11, 17:09:57
Lee for me was a very aggressive general of the Civil War-era. It should be noted that had Lee been on the Union side he would have finished the war either early on or gotten entangled with a bitter trenchy-like fight with Joe Johnson (who had a style of command more suited to the? Confederates). JJ was all defensive, actually ahead of his time.

Lee had the highest ...
By: Shafeone. on 11 Nov 11, 16:57:14
Lee had the highest casualty rates? (% lost, not total numbers since his rolls were smaller of course) than any general in command of an army, North or South, including Grant. Lee was quite profligate with his men's lives but whereas Grant could afford to be Lee could not. To have attacked Malvern Hill, stood out-number 2 to 1 at Antietam with the Potomac at his back and continue to fight at Gettysburg after day 1 were three very irresponsible and quite costly/bloody mistakes.

Note that his first ...
By: Beaviz81. on 11 Nov 11, 16:49:51
Note that his first suggestion was to be closer to the main army. The first suggestion usually tends to be the favored one. Lee probably made a facial expression saying he disapproved, so I think Stuart on his foot suggested the second solution. That one is pure? speculation, also the Lost Cause-cause want to portray Lee as perfect, not as the overly aggressive general he really was. Of course my theory is only from personal experience with bosses.

Where Stuart? DOES ...
By: Shafeone. on 11 Nov 11, 16:23:48
Where Stuart? DOES get blame I think is his planning was based on the assumption that the Union army was widely spread out and a large force of cavalry could slip through gaps. But they were much more concentrated forcing Stuart to shift his break-through attempts farther away from the line of march and delaying his plans from square one. He should have turned back and rejoined the ANV but instead stubbornly pushed on--probably as a result of wounded pride from Brandy Station.

Not only that, the ...
By: Beaviz81. on 11 Nov 11, 15:54:33
Not only that, the manual from that game, long gone, due to the glue dissolving the pages, actually say that Lee encouraged the ride. The phrase was somewhat like this: Lee and Stuart were discussing what route Stuart's cavalry should take, and Stuart proposed two alternatives, one much closer to the main body of the army. And? another one cutting off the escape-route to Baltimore. Lee suggested that the most dashing cavalry-commander in the war should take the latter.

I think we're ...
By: Shafeone. on 11 Nov 11, 12:49:33
I think we're actually on the same page and I didn't realize it. The key here is "rumored" which you are 100% correct. To be honest, I never did confirm that they were actually there or not so your post is spot on. The Confederate army (from II Corps) had? already moved through Gettysburg earlier in the campaign so maybe someone there heard something. Who knows. I am glad too that you say Lee let Stuart go on his ride. Staurt is often scape-goated but Lee approved his adventures.

By: Beaviz81. on 11 Nov 11, 06:11:39
As far as I know, my source is Sid Meier's Gettysburg. There were? rumored to be a few thousand pair of shoes in a warehouse there. So Heth conferred with A.P. Hill who let him go ahead getting those shoes. Also the intelligence on the Confederate side were bad due to Lee letting JEB Stuart ride off on a heroic though futile cavalry-raid.

In his book "Gettysburg" Stephen Sears explicitly offers that Henry Heth heard that there may have been upwards of 8,000 pair of shoes? in Gettysburg (there are shoes in my town too, doesn't mean they were made there) and that he was anxious to commandere them, hence his 8-mile expedition from Cashtown. He even asked A.P. Hill on the night of June 30, after Pettirgrew reported yankee troops there if he could go back to Gettysburg in the am and get those shoes. Just saying.

By: Paranomasia12. on 26 May 12, 12:57:07
That scene isn't entirely accurate but that was? only a skirmish and you only see part of it. In that age, the tactics you would appreciate would not have won war. Troops in skirmish formation (the one you'd advocate), though able to take cover and use initiative, were vulnerable to cavalry and could not hold ground against advancing infantry columns. Line infantry provided the anchor for skirmishers and cavalry to retreat to if threatened.

I don't need ...
By: WolfDiamond123. on 22 May 12, 18:30:34
I don't need historical knowledge to make a critique that marching towards the enemy like shown in the link is a strategy that got a lot people unnecessarily killed. and I believe you can make a critique without knowing SPECIFIC information on a particular subject, i'm just giving an opinion. i wish we could rewind the clocks and put u? into the many of the useless and foolish raids over no mans land during WW1, then your opinion be different

Common sense ...
By: Paranomasia12. on 22 May 12, 14:55:18
Common sense dictates that in an era where the standard firearm had a range of about a hundred yards and accuracy was about 75% in noncombat situations that you would need to put as much fire on a target as possible and the only way? you could do this is with massed volleys. Those commands weren't stupid. You SHOULD know more about ANY subject before criticizing it.

Mistake in the ...
By: crapatev. on 20 May 12, 22:01:32
Mistake in the video blurb: It's not a British infantry company but an Irish one. The English have a bizarre Machiavellian skill of making other, braver peoples fight for them,? and then claim any victories as glory for England. E.g. Waterloo - only a small minority of the Allies were English. Of course, in return for the Irish fighting for England, the English then starved a million-plus Irish men, women and children to death. Lovely people, the English.

You do need ...
By: ImperialKnightmareth. on 20 May 12, 17:39:31
You do need knowledge about the subject. For example without the knowledge you wouldn't know about how many rounds the British cold fire per minute (3) with 2 lines of men. Nations such as France and Prussia couldn't match 3 rounds per minute. A British formation could march forward to a enemy formation and start firing at 3 rounds a minute while the enemy struggled to reach 2 rounds which means that the British line is putting out nearly twice as much as? their foe which means the enemywilroute

keyword, "marched." ...
By: WolfDiamond123. on 19 May 12, 17:03:35
keyword, "marched." the obvious and more effective strategy would have been to "manoeuvre" or "flank" the enemy, not walk in a straight line tog get close the generals of these times (and long after, like WW1 for example, which Kubrick masterfully exemplifies in Path of Glory) were inconsiderate to their solders lives and gave out absurd commands, such as "marching towards the enemy to get close enough to? get a good shot." That's just retarded and inconsiderate, no matter how you put it.

The river of death has brimmed his banks, And England's far, and Honour? a name, But the voice of a schoolboy rallies the ranks: 'Play up! play up! and play the game!'

How can you ...
By: ImperialKnightmareth. on 19 May 12, 10:10:57
How can you possibly think that? You clearly know nothing about how the line formation works, it's about about many rounds you can get out a minute and the British Army at the time could fire 3-4 rounds a minute which is just insane, the whole idea is about discipline and firing. The term "hold the? line"? comes from line infantry well "holding the line formation". A good example of this would be invasion of Quebec where 2 lines of British Line infantry fired calmly in line formation androuted em
