But the canon balls blow up at impact, which is unrealistic. Canon balls could only mow down people, not blow up.

[@SlavicSpring]

@@irov5884 Not really. This series showed both smoothbore cannons firing standard cannonballs through the ranks AND a variety of ordnance used by the French. The "exploding" things are presumably mortar and howitzer shells. The shell that land and fizzles on the ground should be a delayed shell fired by smoothbore cannon. Those vertical "explosions" (no fire, just earth thrown upwards) should be mortars or howitzers. BBC wouldn't spend all that money on correct uniforms made with authentic fabrics, breeds of horses appropriate for Hussars, recreated weapons, cannons, used pyrotechnics to show a bloody cannon recoil just to f**** up with a random explosion.

[@irov5884]

@@SlavicSpring " _Those vertical "explosions" should be mortars or howitzers_ " Mortars were alsmot not used, it was about like 1 mortar per 100 canons, while on the scene about 90% of the explosions are vertical explosions. And about howitzers, their canonballs never fell vertically but a rounded way. " _BBC wouldn't spend all that money on correct uniforms made with authentic fabrics[...] just to f** up with a random explosion_ " Why they wouldn't ? The 1970 Waterloo movie spent so much money on similar authentic stuff, with dozens of thousands real people and horses, just to fuck up on canon shots and recoil. Their canon had no recoil and all aimed at the sky like WW1 artillery.

The director sure took the trouble to reveal the “mass destruction” effects of twelve-pound solid shot smashing into infantry columns. Very few war films featuring smooth-bore ordnance, with the notable exception of Griffith’s “Birth of. Nation” (1915) and its ricocheting solid shot, strive for such realism. But I guess he had to contend with many elderly Civil War veterans who still had sharp memories being cannon fodder.

[@ConstancioRosellini5873]

If Napoleon had reached the American continent in 1815 Some of these possibilities would have occurred. Napoleon could have settled peacefully, probably near his brother Joseph, who lived in New Jersey and had land in upstate New York. Through his supporters in Europe, Napoleon probably would have tried to undermine the Bourbon regime and gain support for his return to France, or for his young son to be placed on the French throne. Napoleon could have tried to rally his followers and peacefully start a colony within the United States. This is something he fantasized about when he was in Santa Elena. The Bonapartists actually tried to establish colonies in Alabama and Texas, which was then under Spanish rule, without much luck. In search of a new throne, Napoleon could have attempted to launch an invasion of one of Spain's American colonies, which were then seeking independence. The most obvious candidate would have been Mexico, via Texas.

[@Steve-eq8iz]

Perhaps, but then it would have been the French that had to deal with American settlers instead of the Mexicans in the coming years. Either way I imagine it ends up annexed as part of the United States.

Imagine how would you became a general and commanding those many units. Already tried that on Total War : Napoleon and it sucked me up cause I've never win the game if it took more than 5 cards😂.

[@KidoKoin]

That's why you have corp, divisional and regimental commanders. It's impossible and detrimental for a general to micromanage an army, like we do in Total War series. It would be really cool to see a game about realistic field commander experience of the line tactics time. Instead of glorious cavalry charges and valiant infantry stands in the bird's eye view, you might see an insides of a dirty shack a few miles behind the front. Bedridden by dysentery, near delusional due to the chronic sleep deprivation and stress. Only information about the battle would be distant cannonade and conflicting and confusing messages from couriers, that would arrive always late. And you'd judge the situation mostly by your gut, and your personal knowledge of your commanders' virtues and vices. Of the constant requests for reinforcements some you'd deny, knowing, that this corp commander is overly cautious, and probably reacting to some cossacks, demonstrating on his flanks. And some you'd regard as an immediate call to action, knowing, that this commander is so proud and stubborn, that this request probably means, that your whole flank is already being overrun somewhere over this distant hill. Or behind this forest. Or somewhere over there - you can't really see because of the fires and the smoke. Anyway, you have to make a decision and you have to make it now. And look convincing for everybody to write home about.

[@napolien1310]

That's exactly why they have the Core system and every Core has it's own high Marshall and it's like a small army that has musketeers cavalry and Cannons.

на счет Гитлера... Гитлер планировал сделать огромное искусственное озеро, как следует из дневников генерала Франца Хадлера. После полного уничтожения многомиллионного города Гитлер рассчитывал раскрыть шлюзы канала «Москва - Волга», чтобы затопить столицу СССР.... Но Между тем, осенью 1941-го, как и осенью 1812-го, уничтожить город собирались не только захватчики, но и его защитники. Защитники Москвы всерьез были намерены уничтожить город, взорвать метро и затопить город чтобы он не достался фашистам. Время идет, а методы не никогда не меняются, что показывает, что русские никогда позволят врагам получить желаемое. _______ Hitler planned to make a huge artificial lake, as follows from the diaries of General Franz Hadler. After the complete destruction of the multimillion-dollar city, Hitler hoped to open the floodgates of the Moscow-Volga canal in order to flood the capital of the USSR.... But meanwhile, in the autumn of 1941, as in the autumn of 1812, not only the invaders, but also its defenders were going to destroy the city. The defenders of Moscow seriously intended to destroy the city, blow up the subway and flood the city so that the fascists would not get it. Time goes by, and methods never change, which shows that the Russians will never allow the enemies to get what they want.

Actually it's just a big piece of land. Very strong but their size and weather have been a reliable strategy to lean on. Saving it vrs (recently) Sweden, Germany in the early 18th century. 19th century agency Napoleon being able to retreat after Borodino 1: Napoleon lacked cavalry. 2: Napoleon made mistakes being too conservative. Stayed too long jeopardizing supply lines and get obviously looked of retreat against winter and massed troops. Obviously WW1, and WW2 (Soviets lost over 6000000 troops in just one campaign but replaced them due to land long distance Germans had to cover, enemy or no enemy), where they lost any after any DVD the Russians are very tough and always some of Europe's toughest and most dependable to show up though

How to defeat every invading nation as Russia: Step 1. *prolong the enemy advance to Moscow into attrition, so they fight into the winter* Step 2. *Blitz them to their capital*

[@diceshard2436]

Actually Napoleons army suufered main losses in summers advance and he began his retreat in October because by that time his army was almost exhausted

[@fajtik]

As mentioned by Dice Shard, same goes for Wermacht. They lost most of their experienced men before winter.

[@1ena585]

Keep retreating while scorching the earth until the enemy's supply line is stretched to the extreme. Winter is an added bonus, but the sheer size of Russia is its biggest strength imo, you can't safely supply an army 1000km deep into enemy territory.

The artillery in this scene are really accurate

[@christopherfleming7505]

Not really. They show the typical exploding cannonballs, which simply did not exist in napoleonic times. The gunpowder was used to propel the shot, but once the cannonball left the cannon it was no more than a flying piece of metal. It did NOT explode when it hit anything. This mistake is almost universal with films about this period. Thankfully it doesn't spoil my enjoyment of the scene.

@Maximus Brutus the rules of war of the time that were clear between opponents meants that the side still in position of the battlefield at the end of the battle was victorious.
