So true... I've studied fencing and sword fighting techniques through history for many years now, and participated from a re-enactment perspective, in competition and choreographed many fights for stage. It was always a fine line between creating a fight that was entertaining from an audience's view, and authentic from an historical view. To me, it always looks better when they appear to be aiming for each other, rather than playing in the air between them which is too often done. But not here!
@dadab22 Жыл бұрын
My favorite part of the duels in this episode (especially for the Simmerson's duel) is how much wounds affected the battle. When Simmerson starts, he is agressive, and is actually delivering some good swings. But after his first wound, he starts to stagger, and his movement locks up. It's very realistic, as even minor injuries really mess with your coordination when it comes to fencing. Once first blood is struck, it becomes incredibly difficult to simply recover, nevereless match your opponent.
@fenriraldrek10224 жыл бұрын
I like how both sharpe and larou are both fucked up but want to kill each other so much that they must be battling through a kaleidoscope of pain (especially sharpe since he has a shoulder and abdominal wound) just to swing those giant ass cavalry sabers.

Whenever I think of a real swordfight, I think of the end of this movie. No grace, no fancy choreography, just two guys taking wild swings with giant unwieldy blades after fatigue sets in and they're just capitalizing on each others existing injuries. The winner is the one that catches his opponent making mental mistakes.

firing from file was essentially just putting up a wall of lead. The idea was that you fired low, and that you would at least hit SOMETHING. Bonaparte never had a rifle corps like the British did, although they were issued to some individuals, who were essentially loyal mercenaries. They were often german or swiss guns for hire, and they were very very feared by the enemy.

Shooting for the officers is what the British had riflemen for.

On his part, Bonaparte always refused to use riflemen or even rifles for some silly reason.
