Pretty much: "give me night or give me Blucher" as Wellington said. He'd defended superbly for the best part of the day but clearly could not have won without the Prussians.

I just finished the book of Bernard Cornwell on the waterloo battle and your animation Show Exactly was is said in the book , Great Work !! Il serait sympa d'avoir d'autre animations sur différente bataille de l'histoire ;-)
Très belle animation, ce coup là la supériorité numérique écrasante des alliés a eu raison du génie militaire de Napoléon, une victoire sans gloire pour les alliés !
Excellent work, thank you. We already know how the battle ends but every time I still hope Napoleon will win 🙂 This Corsican is the greatest man of all times.
Napoleon was very ill on the day. The mass murderers armies had no real chance of wining. Sending Grouchy on a wild goose chase didn't help either. Even so it is still my fave battle of the Napolionic wars.
I think a slowed down version with maybe contextual icons or short explanations of the battle orders and REASONS given at each point would make this video a 10/10. However it was very good to see in action and at least the cannons were animated (makes a big difference). Good job!
One of the rare moments in history when allied armies worked in a effective way together on the battlefield. It's a pity that such natural allies like GB and Germany alienated each other. Together they would have put the whole world in their pockets.
How is it so wonderful to put other cultures in a small nation's pocket; well anyway, Waterloo ensured Britain could do precisely that for the next 100 years, bullying and conquering other lands - 25% of the world - plundering and setting the stage for World Wars and border disputes affecting the world to this day.
Pour être très honnête et pourtant je suis français: J'ai toujours eu la sensation que même sans l'arrivée des Prussiens, les Français auraient perdu cette bataille. Et cette animation historique maintiens cette impression pour moi. Sans dévaloriser l'immense talent de Napoleon mais il s'agit d'une multitude de petit détails en notre défaveur. Tout d'abord l'éternelle et redoutable ténacité en défense des fantassins Britanniques, et puis tous le reste: Les milliers de bons soldats et officiers disparus en Espagne, Russie et dans toute l'Europe, donc la présence de beaucoup de jeunes soldats et officiers moins expérimentés, la météo ce jour là, l'Empereur pas au mieux de sa forme, la pression en terme de temps qui imposait à Napoléon un résultat rapide et donc moins d'options, ceci expliquant peut être ces attaques frontales à répétitions qui ne ressemblent pas aux subtiles manoeuvres habituelles aux Français ... Etc ... Bref je dirais même que grace à l'arrivée des Prussiens nous avons maintenant de meilleures excuses! Car ne nous en déplaise: Regardez-bien à chaque fois que nous avons croisé les Britanniques pendant l'aire Napoléonienne: Cela a pratiquement toujours été en leur faveur! Ils adorent et respectent aujourd'hui beaucoup plus Napoléon que Wellington alors rendons-leur la politesse et ayons le courage et l'honneur d'être honnêtes: Le fantassin Britannique était l'adversaire le plus redoutable de l'époque! GG
La bonne blague t'es entrain de parler de personne au caractère tellement lâche qu'il paye ses amis pour nous attaquer et la on va sortir de l'époque napoléonienne..... T'as déjà entendu parler de dunkerque ?
Non, au cours des guerres napoléoniennes, les Britanniques décidèrent de faire preuve de prudence et ont laisser leurs alliés se faire tuer pour eux afin de ramollir Napoléon. Après la mort de centaines de milliers d'Autrichiens Russes, Prussiens et Espagnols, ils engagent le combat, leurs culs sont sauvés de justesse par les Prussiens à Waterloo, de plus a waterloo l'armée de Wellington était composé à 70% d'allemands, dur de parler de victoire Britannique . les Britanniques, frustrés par leur manque d'héroïsme, ont développé une propagande atroce telle que les séries Sharpe et Hornblower.
Я русский и уважаю французскую армию с начала её освободительных войн. Франции обьявляли войну постоянные коалиции. Французская плеяда талантливых людей из простого сословие показала приимущество над родовитыми, но зачастую бездарными людьми. Ватерлоо имело много прирородных факторов, которые были против французов. Но победители рисуют всё так, как буд то они уверенно побеждали, а это было совсем не так. Сам Велигтон сказал "Мы проигрываем сражение". Господь все решает и время успехов Наполеона начинает уходить. Ситуации оборачивается против него раз за разом. К тому же приход прусаков поколебал мололую французскую армию. Были слышны крики о предательстве. И к стате вопреки схемы за этими каре уже почти ни кого не осталось, все части были сильно потрепаны и многие бежавшие доложили о поражении Велингтона. Но тут пришла ещё целая армия при чем во фланг.
The strategy of Napoleon was to beat the two armies one after the other. Grouchy had the responsibility to contain Blucher meanwhile Napoleon was beating the english army. Napoleon has almost achieved it (he was actually beating the english army) but Grouchy let the Germans pass without even seeing them, that is what defeated the french army this day
It was a united Anglo-Allied-Prussian effort - Wellington would not have fought without Blucher, and Blucher was frankly late to the party. However Blucher made up for it by thoroughly routing the retreating French in the night. Napoleon did not actually beat the English army, as his Guard was finally defeated. The most generous result for the French be to call it a draw; if Blucher had not arrived Wellington would have retreated just as he had done at Quatre Bras, with roughly equal losses on both sides.
Myhidin Shehu It’s fauls ... Napoleon loos all their Elite soldier in the winter of russia the german and english troops was more training to french . And in reality when the prussian arrived D’Erlon crushed the coalised army .
Oh H no it’s totaly false after the retreat of russia Napoleon lose all their veteran and he fight against the europe with conscript . When he lose all veteran who survive at the retreat as demonilized and at the return of Napoleon his just a conscript with 2 mounth of train .
Всем привет 👋 Я из России. Люблю военную истори, особенно разбор и тактику сражений. Сейчас очень много версий, что следовало сделать ,а что не стоило французской армии сделать изходя из той ситуации в которой она оказалась. Но даже не смотря на многие факторы, как невыгодная позиция для атакующих и ,что более важно проливные дожди, которые отложили начало сражения,а так же сделало почву очень неудобной и вязкой для атакуюших и наоборот очень удачной для обороняющихся. Но не смотря на это французская армия одерживала верх до прихода 2 ой армии Прусаков. Наполеон был очень близок к победе. Интресно как развивались бы события, не пошли он гвардию на левое крыло,котооое уже усилил Велинтон благодаря переброске войск ,потому как на другом пришли свежие войска Блюхера? Смогла ли старая гвардия закрепиться на сложных участках до конца заканчивающегося сражения? К тому же Груши уже был рядом. Но Господь распорядился иначе.
You are not a traitor ! Kings and Queens are rebels, usurpers of common men's rights. Napoleon was the ironfist and the storm liberty need in such a critical context. I live in solidarity with the British who choose liberty as they fight for their country to become a Republic. All kings are usurpers and their rule is based on a lie.
Im an outsider ( Greek) and seeing this excellent work ( a model for many battles) i get the impression that the ones who won , they didn't. It was Napoleons loss. He lost the battle -- .
@@freewal No, it was impossible for Napoleon to win. He might have managed to get Wellington to retreat, but he had no chance against the Prussians. The French were exhausted at the time, had hardly any ammunition left, and were scattered all over the front when the Prussians came. At that time the Prussian army was still as strong as the French, and not just these 50,000 men who appeared on the battlefield until the French fled ...

Excellente vidéo ! J'espère que tu auras l'occasion d'en faire d'autres, sur cette même période ou d'autres pourquoi pas !

Bonne continuation !
A few small mistakes; On the east flank of the map, Smohain is placed incorrectly; it should be where it says Frischermont, and Frischermont should be where it says 'Chateau'. Plancenoit was under attack at 6 pm. Zieten did not arrive on the main battle area until 7 pm. Pirch moved behind Bulow until Plancenoit was attacked.
@@nixon9346 It never hurts to share knowledge. Try it sometime and you may find people will thank you if it has helped them. In this case, people deserve to know where the mistakes are in historical documentations.
Chouette vidéo je like. Napoléon ? C est le boucher de l Europe à l origine de toutes les horreurs du 20 ème siècle commises par les perdants du siècle précédent obsédés par leur soif de vengeance
This really drives home how decisive the Prussians were. Once Blucher showed up it was game over for Napoleon (with or without gambling the Guard at the end there). If the Prussians hadn't arrived then it is quite possible that Napoleon could have won this battle, although far from guaranteed since Wellington was hanging on up to that point. But once the Prussians showed up the French were enveloped and outnumbered.
If you consider that Wellington was about to withdraw because he could no longer withstand the French attacks, then it is enough to know that Napoleon had to send 2/3 of his reserves during the fighting against the Prussians to give himself time against Wellington procure.
Would have been nice if the battle of Wavre (few miles away from Waterloo) had been included to show that Grouchy was on the way to the main battlefield but halted by a reinforced Prussian corps. I think this battle belongs to the Waterloo battle since it was on the same day and had a decisive effect on the main battle.
When watching this it becomes really obvious that Ney was attempting to break Wellington's right so that the whole army could then turn and face both the prussians and the rest of the British, because its better that they be all coming from the front rather than Napoleons front and right. I sincerely doubt that massed charges like that were spurred by Ney being stupidly rash but rather the dire need for the army to have space to turn and face the flanking prussians.
is already over when green side push their right side .. but the blue side try to do a pincer attack to make a last ditch effort but they fail ... in my opinion I'll just focus my force to capture Hougomont, Papelotte Smolhain and La have. to cover some more ground in the case of the right side I will use the reserve infantry to make a second line of defense while my troop holding their formation in Chateau.after that I will order a retreat that holding Chateau and reinforce the second line I make support by artillery. but the result will be the same. because of the overwhelming strength of the enemy. well this is just my opinion but I like the animation.. it make me understand more about the Bataille de Waterloo.. sorry if my opinion is not very detail ..
Сделано великолепно, НО! ...но, на основе версии истории лишь одной стороны, а именно британской. И тут главное: 1) Версия истории это не история, а скорее противоположность истории и фактам, версия истории это чистой воды пропаганда - а она лжива почти всегда. 2) Англичане/британцы всегда врут, их история лжива на корню, запад в целом лжив и им верить = себя не уважать, ну а мелкобритам тем более, у них так вообще ни чести ни морали нет и не было. Так что, как бы прекрасно не была проделана работа автором, любой из выше перечисленных пунктов полностью перечёркивает какую либо информационную ценность самой его работы.
The map is a wonderful part of your presentation... the representation of contour and elevation does a lot to explain the positioning of the units, and the movements of the troops.
If the timing on the map is accurate it's significant that as early as 2:20pm Napoleon started shifting significant cavalry and infantry reserves to shore up his exposed right flank preparing for Blucher's approach. The book Wellington's Smallest Victory chronicles how the Duke destroyed the career of an unfortunate Engineers officer in charge of a major scale model of the battle. After exhaustive research with surviving senior officers years after Waterloo, the officer (accurately) depicted the Prussians arriving far earlier than the Duke cared to acknowledge.
In retrospect, Wellington was in the thick of his many hotspots in his battlefront. It would've been hard for him to notice the furious assault the Prussians were making from the Paris Woods at 4.30 pm - almost 2 miles away - obscured by the intervening Grand Battery's smoke.
Problem I have is no French canon or infantry come up to ruin the Nassau square etc during Neys 12 or so charges. An I'm pretty sure Le Haye Sant fell during that time an sharpshooters on the roof gained a line of sight over the men in squares.. The other issue is the relative amount of allied cavalry left when in reality the French cavalry had effectively established dominance over British cavalry by this point. Hence why the men couldn't leave square to defend themselves. Plus the cavalry used to wipe out the first french attack was to give Picton an the allied reserve time to reinforce the units smashed by firstly the movement of heavy artillery to the right and then that attack. I also thought there was already units on Napoleons right flank an he sent the Young guard to take some villages back? Still good.
Just saying but I love ❤️ this video because you see I play the tenor drums in a pipe and drum band that is named after the famous famous black watch which is a British Canadian and Scottish infantry regiment and it’s predecessor the 42nd regiment of foot fought at Waterloo
you don't understand, it's because the painter told them "chill and smile, i'm taking a picture !" Even the almost dead guy on the left is making effort lol
Rien à faire qu'il ait perdu. Napoléon a défendu et a donné un peu plus de gloire à la France qu'elle en avait déjà. Une gloire qui lui est destinée car une France sans gloire n'est pas une France. Merci Napoléon pour tout ce que tu as fait ! 🇫🇷🇫🇷 (Bon ça fait un peu chier quand même d'avoir perdu, contre des anglais en plus)
great animatiom , well done ,, once the allied armies joined , napoleon was doomed,, just finished reading bernard cornwells excellent history of the battle of waterloo ,, if anybody is interested ,, well worth a read .
Hougoumont was the key to the battle, Napoleon knew it and tried very hard to take the place, but this battle was a total loss from the beggining, Napoleon was much overwhelmed
That was actually Blucher’s plan, but during the fighting, Müffling came out of Wellington’s headquarters and asked Ziethen to provide direct support to Wellington’s left flank. Ziethen then decided, as the situation dictated, to do so, and Wellington was able to withdraw Allied troops from his left flank and use them to strengthen his center and withstand the French attacks there ...
L idee est excellente !!! Cependant il faudrait si possible bien sur que se soit sur une plus grande echelle avec les unites representees et surtour que les mouvements soit un peu moins rapides ! J ai vu le meme representation interactive aux invalides a l etage. C etait la bataille de Fontenoy. Les Anglais prenaient une correction c etait d autant plus passionnant !!!

This was an amazing battle animation, thank you!
Très bien fait techniquement!
very good animation.... will u make one for austerlitz??
Excellent, more please.
A few small mistakes;
On the east flank of the map, Smohain is placed incorrectly; it should be where it says Frischermont, and Frischermont should be where it says 'Chateau'.
Plancenoit was under attack at 6 pm.
Zieten did not arrive on the main battle area until 7 pm. Pirch moved behind Bulow until Plancenoit was attacked.
You must be fun
@@nixon9346 It never hurts to share knowledge. Try it sometime and you may find people will thank you if it has helped them. In this case, people deserve to know where the mistakes are in historical documentations.

Chouette vidéo je like. Napoléon ? C est le boucher de l Europe à l origine de toutes les horreurs du 20 ème siècle commises par les perdants du siècle précédent obsédés par leur soif de vengeance
First image is 28th Regiment of Foot at *Quatre Bras*
This really drives home how decisive the Prussians were. Once Blucher showed up it was game over for Napoleon (with or without gambling the Guard at the end there). If the Prussians hadn't arrived then it is quite possible that Napoleon could have won this battle, although far from guaranteed since Wellington was hanging on up to that point. But once the Prussians showed up the French were enveloped and outnumbered.
If you consider that Wellington was about to withdraw because he could no longer withstand the French attacks, then it is enough to know that Napoleon had to send 2/3 of his reserves during the fighting against the Prussians to give himself time against Wellington procure.
Very cool video / animation.
Ottimo video. Grazie e continuate così.
Would have been nice if the battle of Wavre (few miles away from Waterloo) had been included to show that Grouchy was on the way to the main battlefield but halted by a reinforced Prussian corps. I think this battle belongs to the Waterloo battle since it was on the same day and had a decisive effect on the main battle.
Grouchy was never on his way to the battlefield. He followed his orders to chase the Prussians only. Wavre was very far away.
seria genial que hagas mas videos como este
Excellent travail !
Absolutely fantastic!!!
Wonderful !!! Wow, you might have to do somemore, , like some of "Frederick The Great" seven years War !
Did you make this?
Can you do this style for other battles? You'd have a lot of greatful fans!! And I'll even pay you on patreon
When watching this it becomes really obvious that Ney was attempting to break Wellington's right so that the whole army could then turn and face both the prussians and the rest of the British, because its better that they be all coming from the front rather than Napoleons front and right. I sincerely doubt that massed charges like that were spurred by Ney being stupidly rash but rather the dire need for the army to have space to turn and face the flanking prussians.
is already over when green side push their right side .. but the blue side try to do a pincer attack to make a last ditch effort but they fail ... in my opinion I'll just focus my force to capture Hougomont, Papelotte Smolhain and La have. to cover some more ground in the case of the right side I will use the reserve infantry to make a second line of defense while my troop holding their formation in Chateau.after that I will order a retreat that holding Chateau and reinforce the second line I make support by artillery. but the result will be the same. because of the overwhelming strength of the enemy. well this is just my opinion but I like the animation.. it make me understand more about the Bataille de Waterloo.. sorry if my opinion is not very detail ..
Well said
C'est dommage que l'auteur de cette vidéo se désintéresse totalement de youtube, j'adore son style et j'aurais aimé en voir plus hélas :'(
Великолепно сделано, видно как же это сложно - сражение
Сделано великолепно, НО! ...но, на основе версии истории лишь одной стороны, а именно британской.
И тут главное:
1) Версия истории это не история, а скорее противоположность истории и фактам, версия истории это чистой воды пропаганда - а она лжива почти всегда.
2) Англичане/британцы всегда врут, их история лжива на корню, запад в целом лжив и им верить = себя не уважать, ну а мелкобритам тем более, у них так вообще ни чести ни морали нет и не было.
Так что, как бы прекрасно не была проделана работа автором, любой из выше перечисленных пунктов полностью перечёркивает какую либо информационную ценность самой его работы.
The map is a wonderful part of your presentation... the representation of contour and elevation does a lot to explain the positioning of the units, and the movements of the troops.
1:59 Goddamn it, Ney !
Très belle vidéo, les animations sont r=très réussies!
If the timing on the map is accurate it's significant that as early as 2:20pm Napoleon started shifting significant cavalry and infantry reserves to shore up his exposed right flank preparing for Blucher's approach. The book Wellington's Smallest Victory chronicles how the Duke destroyed the career of an unfortunate Engineers officer in charge of a major scale model of the battle. After exhaustive research with surviving senior officers years after Waterloo, the officer (accurately) depicted the Prussians arriving far earlier than the Duke cared to acknowledge.
In retrospect, Wellington was in the thick of his many hotspots in his battlefront. It would've been hard for him to notice the furious assault the Prussians were making from the Paris Woods at 4.30 pm - almost 2 miles away - obscured by the intervening Grand Battery's smoke.
Total: 118,000
Wellington's army: 68,000
United Kingdom: 25,000 British and 6,000 King's German Legion
Netherlands: 17,000
Hanover: 11,000
Brunswick: 6,000
Nassau: 3,000
156 guns
Blücher's army:
Prussians: 50,000
Très bon travail, bravo !
Problem I have is no French canon or infantry come up to ruin the Nassau square etc during Neys 12 or so charges. An I'm pretty sure Le Haye Sant fell during that time an sharpshooters on the roof gained a line of sight over the men in squares..
The other issue is the relative amount of allied cavalry left when in reality the French cavalry had effectively established dominance over British cavalry by this point. Hence why the men couldn't leave square to defend themselves.
Plus the cavalry used to wipe out the first french attack was to give Picton an the allied reserve time to reinforce the units smashed by firstly the movement of heavy artillery to the right and then that attack.
I also thought there was already units on Napoleons right flank an he sent the Young guard to take some villages back?
Still good.
Just saying but I love ❤️ this video because you see I play the tenor drums in a pipe and drum band that is named after the famous famous black watch which is a British Canadian and Scottish infantry regiment and it’s predecessor the 42nd regiment of foot fought at Waterloo
0:00 that one guy who is just randomly having the time of his life
is he ded lol
you don't understand, it's because the painter told them "chill and smile, i'm taking a picture !" Even the almost dead guy on the left is making effort lol
@@rolyflorian There are painters in the battle?
@@heinzguderian6329 no it was a joke, you can't really imagine people staying motionless while a painter would try to paint the scene.
Lul k roly
Rien à faire qu'il ait perdu. Napoléon a défendu et a donné un peu plus de gloire à la France qu'elle en avait déjà. Une gloire qui lui est destinée car une France sans gloire n'est pas une France. Merci Napoléon pour tout ce que tu as fait ! 🇫🇷🇫🇷
(Bon ça fait un peu chier quand même d'avoir perdu, contre des anglais en plus)
Tu m'as ému
Enfin une vrai personne, merci😭❤️👌😂
great animatiom , well done ,, once the allied armies joined , napoleon was doomed,, just finished reading bernard cornwells excellent history of the battle of waterloo ,, if anybody is interested ,, well worth a read .
Total: 73,000
Napoleon army 49,000
34,000 infantry
9,600 cavalry
5,400 artillery and engineers
168 guns
Grouchy 24,000
Please do more battle animations! Gettysburg would be awesome!
Hougoumont was protected by nassu rifles AND the coldstream guards (most elite british force)
Hougoumont was the key to the battle, Napoleon knew it and tried very hard to take the place, but this battle was a total loss from the beggining, Napoleon was much overwhelmed
I thought they were young Hessians?
Belle video et très précise ... Bravo!
Ive always heard that Von Zieten was reinforcing Wellingtons left instead of being directly engaged alongside Bulow
That was actually Blucher’s plan, but during the fighting, Müffling came out of Wellington’s headquarters and asked Ziethen to provide direct support to Wellington’s left flank.
Ziethen then decided, as the situation dictated, to do so, and Wellington was able to withdraw Allied troops from his left flank and use them to strengthen his center and withstand the French attacks there ...
Thanks for the details video. Great job.
Les chiffres de disrparus des allies sont surprenantes.
L idee est excellente !!! Cependant il faudrait si possible bien sur que se soit sur une plus grande echelle avec les unites representees et surtour que les mouvements soit un peu moins rapides ! J ai vu le meme representation interactive aux invalides a l etage. C etait la bataille de Fontenoy. Les Anglais prenaient une correction c etait d autant plus passionnant !!!
Was there an old guard square in the battle or no?
6 VS 1.
And Britains said it's their victory ?
German victory. the allies would've been overrun if not for blucher
Its a victory for both the Prussian Army and the Anglo-Allied army.
