24th Regiment of Foot at Rorkes Drift...........nothing else compares!!
Thats a blatantly ignorant statement.Originally Posted by SOG
and the americans-europeans had gps, automatic weapons, air recon, and armor? you are talking about native indians and british/americans in the 17th to 18th century right? well hell, we didnt have that **** either! what are you on? maybe we had a gatling in latter wars but it was hardly forest worthy and was so heavy as to slow down anywhere it travelled (custer aka the lack of)
and yes the indians had very effective medicines and great herbal remedies that celebrities pay ass over fist for to get these made for them modern day so yes they had very good medicine, just not so great "doctors". then again if you were wounded back then and werent a higher up officer your doctor would be a bottle of scotch and a hack saw. so they actually had much better "medicine" than we ever did during those times.
they didnt need maps in thier own backyard and homes, and our maps were useless since no one went into every inch of the forest and mapped it out! american maps were of retarted, easy target roads for how many years? how long did it take adventureres to get out and just map a trail across the lands in a single direction let alone with indians help and they had never travelled that far either?
i agree indians are bad asses but for thier stealth, outdoor survivability and mobility and tracking abilities, not any of your very weird reasons.
and yes, if you took a indian today and dumped him in the middle of the woods half a world away he'd be as lost as ****. that is why modern day warriors use gps, because they usually dont fight in thier backyard!

He picked all the classical stereotypes too. But hey that's okay if you're a Lefty. Its only when conservatives or those on the Right say these things that they are condemned. Typical arrogance.Thats a blatantly ignorant statement.and the americans-europeans had gps, automatic weapons, air recon, and armor? you are talking about native indians and british/americans in the 17th to 18th century right? well hell, we didnt have that **** either! what are you on? maybe we had a gatling in latter wars but it was hardly forest worthy and was so heavy as to slow down anywhere it travelled (custer aka the lack of)

I'm going with Argyll on this one.
Isn't it amazing how Duci 19 always manages to hold a strange opinion on everything?
I've studied the 7 Years War. SOG made very valid points. The Indians did influence the Rangers of the time period. The Indians were completely at home in those woods, they were HUNTERS whereas the average indentured servant turned farmer was at a HUGE dissadvantage. There are a great many myths associated with the Native Americans. They set fire to a great many acres in the east in order to flush game and increase their chances while hunting over open land, they had slaves, they were not some magical LotR elven society.
That picture cracks me the hell up everytime.
