Napoleonic Wars in real life
« on: May 30, 2012, 11:40:33 PM »
So imagine that now you are a soldier who is fighting in the Napolionic Wars.

What would you like to be during the war?

Cavalry? Infantry as ranker? Captain? Artillery man? Cook? Enginner? The Kaiser? Rocket trooper? Rifleman? A civilian (spy)? Shooting practise target? Etc...

I would personally like to be a Rifleman and get some kills in a distance :)

Regards

I agree, I think the rifleman position would be best suited towards me. But still, there's something...magical about the thought of leading a line regiment into a glorious battle.

George III
That way I could make random insane statements.
And the people would be like "Oh, its okay, he's insane, and the king."

I'd love to serve in the Russian/Swedish navy, and thus not be exposed to too much danger. There.
