i hate to say it but this episode seemed really biased. All they complained about was how Napoleon failed in Russia. They never took into consideration how many battles Washington lost if their gonna keep bitching just about napoleons defeat......accurate historical facts ftw.

Personally I think it is stupid to pit two commanders against each other, in a heated combat situation. It should be one on one or at the very most 5 on 5 squad battles (for the SEALS v IDF etc.). Using Generals as any potrayal of a "warrior" is like saying a Fisher Price Squeaky Hammer is a portrayal of a DeWalt Sledgehammer.

Well Washington managed to keep his army together through the worst parts of the war (Which he learned to do in the French and Indian wars), and managed to gain American independence. Napoleon couldnt fight a campaign in egypt, managed to lose his army by invading Russia, and then lost the new army he created at Waterloo.

It is not the business of generals to shoot one another.

I feel like they should've done a more conclusive test regarding actual armies on the field. Since then the differences in the General's logistical skills would've been significant. When you have a 5v5 logistics and most of the other general attributes they assigned seemed very mute.

Then again when has this show ever made sense? Pirate beats Knight my ass.

i agree kirkendall. This special case should have been handled with a more....strategic touch? The X factors they brought in were useless because like you said they were just 5 man squads. Now if it was army vs army THEN the X factors wouldve been more significant. Yes we know that napoleon failed at times, yes we know washington became victorious BUT the entire show all they complained about was Napoleons defeat in russia. Not once did i ever hear about Washingtons defeats at...or the fact that victory was barely achieved in the long run. It doesnt matter what Napoleon and you can keep listing all his defeats all you want, but the matter of fact is the show ignored Washingtons folly's and defeats and therefore made a majority of the statistics bias making it seem like omg washingtons tactics were fanfreakin tastic when in fact he was on his heels the entire revolutionary war and suffered many defeats before he started actually WINNING.

If their gonna bitch and moan about Napoleons defeats then they shouldve took into account Washingtons defeats as well.
