>the absolute state of Austria

Napoleon btfo'd everyone during the 3rd coalition (except the br*ts at sea of course)
And Austria took on Napoleon on her own and did pretty well,giving Napoleon his first real defeat

Did you read my full post
Maybe i forgot to put the fifth coalition (which was primarily Austrian) but you can infer from what i read there that Austria managed to put up a good fight alone against Napoleon at his height

>>3240491
>Except the brits at sea

How did this happen? Did Napoleon fear the Royal naval warrior?

>>3240838
>put up a good fight alone
>with Spain and Britain and several minor states
>have more troops than France
>take more casualties than France
>considered a French Victory

???

They were powered by rum,sodomy and the flog

Better than any previous coalition,Archduke Charles gave Napoleon his first real loss at Aspern Esslimg and almost threatened to cut off the French Army in two
Im not saying that the Austrian particularly won or anything but yes the Austria managed to put up a better fight than anyone previously
And even in the aftermath of the Russian invasion and the sixth coalition it was only after Austria joined that the coalition had a numbers advantage

>>3240890
>first real defeat
>not saying that the Austrian particularly won

What did he mean by this?

I don't think we have enough media about the Napoleonic wars from the most interesting side right now anyway, but eventually it would be nice to have some stuff depicting all major sides.

Battle,not war

After we get an actually good one about France.

>>3240422
Napoleonic Wars is pretty wide, better off either focusing on 1809 or 1813.

I'd rather see Russian anyway.

If only some rich guy would fund a huge production for the Napoleonic Wars.

>When are we going to get a movie/tv show about *historical event/scenario*
When some author manages to write a true bestseller, something that gets popular enough to warrant a kino.
Rome ain't gonna happen again anytime soon. Just hope for Scharfe to be written.

The Eternal Normie would rather watch Survivor: Season 30 than watch that, though.

>>3240422

>miniseries about getting BTFO by Napoleon

I'd watch it

>>3240838
>the fifth coalition

the 5th failed coalition

>>3240890
>rum,sodomy and the flog

it's the lash jesus fuck

"Don't talk to me about naval tradition. It's nothing but rum, sodomy, and the lash." - That fat Britbong with the cigar who hated Krauts

Although Austria did perform pretty badly overall, it would be interesting to see something from their perspective considering they did give Napoleon his first battlefield defeat

>>3240854
Because during the revolution all competent naval captains were executed or had fled from France, leaving the navy with awful leadership. The Army was good however because the nobility was less ingrained into it's structure and more focus was put towards rebuilding it. Spain was also pretty much a third-world country at the time so it wasn't too difficult for Britain to beat them at Trafalgar.
Britain at the time however had a good navy but a terrible Army

>>3244008
There is already War and Peace

>>3247203
To be fair, Britain having a good navy and a terrible/small army was hardly new.
