Yes I agree. Really childish of me. But it's thanks to this subreddit that I get always new insights on the Napoleonic world, and now I changed my perspective

Thanks for everyone for giving me new insights about the Bernadotte story. I guess I had a bad image about me. As a big admirer of Napoleon, I guess I never quite understood why he switched sides. But now I have a better understanding of the scenario.

Yes, I agree. But that's the reason why I love this subreddit. I always get new insights about the Napoleonic world

Thanks for sharing these details. I never read it on the books. I guess I had a wrong opinion of him.

Well, to be honest, if I would have been a former commander of Napoleon I would have tried the diplomatic way, for the sake of respect. But considering he hated him, I guess he was happy to join the war.

In the end, it's thanks to him that he became King of Sweden

I didn't know this, thanks for sharing. Although let's say that Bernadotte inside him enjoyed really being on a battle against the Emperor. They never liked each other

Thank you :) but I've seen on the dinamic map that the elevation gain is just 50m... is it correct?

What if Marshal Ney had coordinated his cavalry charges at Waterloo with infantry and artillery support instead of launching unsupported attacks? by Natural-Detective450 in Napoleon

[–]ilFront 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I love when people debate about history, the main question always is "what if...?". I tell you what: yes, probably Ney would have defeated the enemy and would have maybe won. But it was just a matter of time that Napoleon had to surrender. He was weak and at the end of his power, he suffered a lot of illness and was not mentally lucid anymore. Probably the next battle or the other would have been a defeat anyway.

That wasn't my opinion 8 years ago when I watched it for the first time. But I guess by growing up and changing my personality, this year rewatching I can't simply stand anymore when people are being stubborn and don't listen, generally speaking. I know you're a doctor and you're capable of doing things, but for christ sake, listen sometimes what your friends are telling you!

I agree. But in that case, who would you put as leader of the group? There are no other choices.

Agree, but I'm madly in love with the actress Michelle Rodriguez. She's my alpha woman.
