Settle a debate please /his/. Which army would prove victorious, or even hold their own in an even engagement, as in an equal number of men and equally supplied. The army of Henry V in 1415, or the Anglo-Dutch Army under Lord Wellington in 1815.

shitty question
Wellington simply because he has the technological advantage.

That's the whole point, pit them against each other and see what happens. It's not like Henry wouldn't get a few licks in. Plus Cav can get through guns or no.

>or the Anglo-Dutch Army under Lord Wellington in 1815.
Germano-Dutch would be a more fitting term

Hard question
Incompetent faggots saved by the mud vs Incompetent faggots saved by the Prussians...
Dog only nose I guess...

>effective against an army that shit on Napoleon's calvary, which was 400 years more advanced
You're an idiot.
>>956935
To be fair, Napoleon's cav was poorly managed and given terrible orders.
>Equally supplied
Whichever side gets the gear they were trained for. If it's muskets and rifles, probably Wellington, if it's bills and longbows, probably Henry V.
>>956935
heavy Calvary could do a great deal damage don't you think? (not op)

le internal angle amirite?
preach it brotha
>>956386
So one side is an army of professional soldiers, highly drilled, good morale, the other largely consists of part time troops and levy. How is this an argument?

Henry V
