Great video ! Most understated battlefield assessment - with one unit left: " I think we've lost this battle." Best post battle debrief: "They're dead Dave, they're all dead. Everybody's dead."
Thank you! I am clearly not the master tactician I sometimes think I am... let's advance... oh they've got rifles and we're all dead.... let's change sides!
Yeah. Great shots, but not for standing BEING shot at. In one of the later battles in this stream, 1300 of my American militia just run for the hills for no real reason!
@@WhatHoSnorkersthat’s actually pretty accurate to the battle: Greene tried to replicate Morgan’s tactics at Cownpens but one of his lines of militia panicked and ran without firing a shot, leading to Cornwallis coming very close to wiping out his army
It was! I was expecting to charge in and get a few good licks in. Nope! I think in the real battle, Tarleton's men charged into the woods and were then surprised by all the Patriots in there. Here they were surprised by regiments of Predators armed with plasma cannons!

The ONE TIME that militia was actually useful in a standup battle

@@DocZFlux Ooof! The game seems pretty good then, considering the age of it and the limitations...
That was a tad one sided.
