The Final Fall Of Napoleon: Waterloo 1815

[ClearlyInvsible]

i am keeping the roster they way it is. 93rd shall stay because they saw most action in new orleans and seem to be focused on more in books and videos.

The facts are here and show that the 95th Should replace the 60th and the 60th should rightly be Light.

93rd will stay but i have changed the 60th to the 95th only because they carried rifles

There's a reason why the 60th were called the Royal American Rifles.

95th didn't even fight in the War of 1812. Hell the 60th had a 7th rifle battalion created FOR the war itself.

Well

Well although the 95th didn't technically fight in the war of 1812 they were there at New Orleans. The 60th Royal American 'Rifles' wore green jackets but they were armed with muskets and there for the 7th Battalion should not be Rifles/Skirms and should be light.

[ClearlyInvsible]

The 7th Battalion was armed with Rifles, they should be Rifles.

If you want to give a good unit Lights give it to the Quebec Garrison Volts like Docm said.

It says there were two rifle companies. So we're both right.

Besides there were other 60th Battalions in the War.

There's quite a difference between having two rifle companies, and being a battalion of riflemen.

Also, you wouldn't mind providing information on these other battalions, would you? My obviously lacking research abilities have yielded me only information on the 7th Battalion.

[ClearlyInvsible]

No need to be so chastising Bob. Why is it everytime I say something you ride me down on it.

I read it in the book British Rifleman 1797-1815, if I had a damned photocopier I'd show you.

You don't want my answer to that, as I'm sure it would get me in trouble with the admins for 'Trolling, insulting and other personal attacks'. Rest assured though, it's not just you.

In addition, are we to take this single book as a source, when I've not found mention of the 5th Battalion anywhere in the history of the war? If we're going to do that, I need more than 'I read it in a book', because I can't go out and get every book I'm told information can be found in, for the sake of a single mistaken detail. At the very least, you can type up what is in the bloody thing, so I can have some idea of what it says.

Edit: Spelling mistakes errwhere.

[ClearlyInvsible]

Fair enough.

It says, according to the book, that they were in the Battle of Chateauguay and were Reserves in Lundy's Lane. I'll admit, the 5th Battalion did not act as a significant force in the war. But I still think for a war of 1812 mod they should get the Rifle spot for the UK, for the sake of the 7th Battalion's Rifles fighting also.

Or just give them lights, even though I'd rather see the Montreal Volts :/

I agree with lights and as the 3/95th was infact the only British RIFLE armed unit in North America at the time should be skirmishers/ Rifles

ClearlyInvisble surrender now and The Great Forums War will be shortened be 10 years and save millions of lives!

[Madbull]

Feels like I've heard those Musket Sounds somewhere.

I could be wrong though.

Yeah.. it's wrong. The Battle of the Chateauguay took place in 1813, while the Peninsular War was still raging. They are also not listed in the order of battle I could find for Lundy's Lane, and it took place three months after the more important war ended.

Or just give them lights, even though I'd rather see the Montreal Volts :/

I'd like to see the Voltigeurs as well, which is why there shouldn't be 'British' riflemen or light infantry. The Canadians played a huge part in the war, naturally, and should be represented as such.
