FRONT RANKFIREREAR RANKFIRE
>>221142240Even with guns this battle should’ve been a one sided stomp for the Zulus. All they had to do was run like two dozen meters once outside of cover, and even if it was a straight charge the British’s guns shouldn't of been able to fire enough times to stop them. Why are black bois so bad at war?
>>221142270Blacks are naturally cowardly. The Zulus won their battles against the other tribes for three reasons:1, they prioritized close quarters combat instead of flinging spears at long range. Prior to the Zulu way of war battles were essentially two mobs shouting at each other and throwing inaccurate projectiles long range. When guys with short spears run up to melee range, the tribal skirmishers were totally outmatched, they did not even know how to fight effectively in melee so the Zulus would win by default.2, having the reserves look away from the battle so that they could not tell if they were winning or not. This was a massive change, because prior to this reserves would simply refuse to attack if they saw that their side was already losing, to avoid throwing good away after bad, as it were.3: Encirclement. African tribal warfare tended to be two broad skirmishing groups without dedicated flank movements, the Zulus to their credit came up with an effective encirclement doctrine described in the film very well as the Bull Formation, with the two horns circling around the sides while the main body engaged from the front. This completely wrecked their tribal rivals and indeed had worked against the British before--but it wouldn't work against a fort in a narrow pass.The British simply did not retreat when the Zulu charged, the combat did not devolve into a swirling melee massacre. The times the British were defeated were because they were caught in stupid positions and ended up stretched into a line while being outflanked as at Isandlwana. Rorke's Drift was the perfect defensive position to exploit both the Zulus' tactical weaknesses and the British Army's tactical advantages. Being forced to make a monofrontal attack against a fortified position of trained marksmen with bayonets and nowhere to retreat to, without even the room to outflank the defenders in the typical Zulu fashion.
>>221142240these guys are dressed just like those nordic aliens trump was meeting yesterday
>>221142270Poor show from the cavalry who fled guys without guns and horses.
>>221142270Those stupid niggers didn't know what hit them
>>221142240Why the sandbags? Did the Zulus have rifles?
>>221142606Don't know.Yes, they had some rifles. I think shorter range ones than the brits
>>221142606If they had time and mortar they'd have erected actual walls but they were operating on a strict timetable and so had to make do.
>>221142371Thanks for letting me know.
>>221142606Even if you're not expecting to face gunfire, a sandbag wall can be useful. It breaks the momentum of the enemy charge, so that instead of instantly overrunning your position, the Zulus have to pause and climb over the wall before continuing on. Having a couple of extra seconds where each approaching Zulu is basically stationary gives you a massive advantage when you've got a gun.
>>221142240
>>221142547Afrikaaners have had a bone to pick with England since the first Anglo set foot on the Cape. they wouldn't piss on an Englishman if he were on fire
>>221142270Its pretty nuts to think, even today, a small handful of whites could go conquer most any African country for the lulz.
>>221143338It'd be a lot more difficult today because they have about 10x the population they did back then due to improvements in medicine and technology from the west, and they also have soviet arms like AKs from the cold war, which, while outdated, are definitely better than spears. And then of course consider all the illegal arms dealers who would be happy to give them even better shit.They'd still get BTFO by krakkkaz, but it wouldn't be as bad as it was back then.
Dishonest movie uses cinematic tricks to fool you into thinking that was a stroke of tactical genius they cooked up in the last moment, when it would have been a thing that they had trained since the beginning. It is manipulative and insults the intelligence of the viewer.

>>221142240>Using dress uniforms instead of service uniformsEven that parody skit in Monthy Python got it right.
>>221142270Africans have an average IQ of 68. They literally can not comprehend that the noisy sticks that the White men were carrying were dangerous weapons.
>>221142270The Battle of Rorke's Drift is NOTHING compared to the Battle of Blood River.
>>221142240I'll never forgive the british for giving up their Empire.
>>221145877>200 servants their broken bucks won that fight for them
>>221145900>giving upwasnt economically feasible
>>221145877>3 woundedwouldn't make for an engaging film thoughbeit. at least the rorke's drift guys took some casualties.
>>221142532>these guys are dressed just like those nordic aliens trump was meeting yesterdayThey were British Aliens then
>>221145988Oh yeah, because the pre-Thatcher crypto-commie years that followed were so fucking economically feasible, right?They sold the design of the Spitfire to Joseph Stalin for fucks sake.
>>221146215Clement Attlee was the best PM in British history by far.
>random african dude assumes power>revolutionizes warfare at the time by basically copying the roman legion despite being relatively isolated and having no real access to literature>goes batshit all over south africa>brothers get jealous and kill him>everything falls apart and whites make them slavesthe assassination of shaka zulu is proof that the "crabs in a bucket" thing about black people is genetic
>>221146249No retard, he was a fucking traitor.The best PM in British history was Benjamin The Israeli.
>>221146399The bull prongs was actually used by Carthage to defeat the Romans first, so it's an African invention.
>>221146399>Shaka had made enough enemies among his own people to hasten his demise.[11] It came relatively quickly after the death of his mother, Nandi, in October 1827 and the devastation caused by Shaka's subsequent erratic behavior. According to Donald Morris, Shaka ordered that no crops should be planted during the following year of mourning, no milk (the basis of the Zulu diet at the time) was to be used, and any woman who became pregnant was to be killed along with her husband. At least 7,000 people who were deemed to be insufficiently grief-stricken were executed, although the killing was not restricted to humans; cows were slaughtered so that their calves would know what losing a mother felt like.[19]He might have had it coming
>>221146441DAS RITE
>>221146478You wouldn't kill everyone if your mom died? What kind of a heartless monster are you? Did you at least call her this weekend you slime?
>>221142240The timmy cries as he massacres your entire population
>>221146478this nigga had autism lmao
>>221146549Timmy means loved by God.
>>221146441Carthage was a Phoenician colony.
>>221145900They had no choice after 2 brutal world wars. They had also spent a lot of time training and educating their subjects, particularly in India, and conscripted them for the war. The jeets felt they were owed independence, and they weren't wrong. There was absolutely no way they were going to keep India, and if they couldn't keep India then who really gives a fuck about the rest. The African colonies were hardly even worth it in the first place.
>>221147083>>221145900the British empire was expensive
>>221146478kekd my ass off reading this. Based retard nigger.
>>221147083The British never conscripted Indians you fucking retard.
>>221146640the jewish god
Bump
>>221147365Not to be confused with the cow dung god.
>>221146478>the difference between fiction and reality is that fiction has to be believable
why did i not hear of this movie until i saw it on 4chan
>>221143511None of that matters because what would kill the whites is what killed them in the 60s: politics and the media.
>>221146478Jesus...I knew he was an asshole but I didn't know he was a fucking maniac
>>221143338>Its pretty nuts to think, even today, a small handful of whites could go conquer most any African country for the lulz.it's pretty nuts to be this delusionally retarded when the americans did this 35 years ago and got shit on in a very public manner by somalians
>>221150452>DO NOT REDEEM THE BULLETS SA-ACK!!
Men of harlech stop your dreamingcan't you see their spear points gleaming
>>221143338Exactly. The only thing stopping Whites from going full 1488 on the entire world is other Whites. Non-Whites exist purely due to the mercy and Grace of White people
>>221151078>if it weren't for malaria and sleeping sickness, whites would have populated sub-saharan africa just like they had done north america and australiaSad! Imagine what could have been.
>>221151147>t. Seething shitskin that doesn’t know America had malaria until the 1930s…White people invented the tools to eradicate malaria and used them to… eradicate malaria. 100 years ago. Nons still can’t do it
>>221145877how does this even happen? how do you get 3000 men killed without even killing a single enemy? those numbers must be inflated
>>221151078Rhodesia does not exist anymore. In the end, they lost.
>>221151564Only bc the White man got involved and intervened against the Rhodesians. Had absolutely nothing to do with the niggers
>>221151245Oh, you're totally correct anon, my mistake. I forgot the colonization of the americas started in the 1930s. You're so smart.
>>221142240>THE FUCK TIMMY GON' DO?: THE MOVIE
>>221142270>shouldn't of
>>221142240Love this film.
>>221142270>guns shouldn't of been able to fire enough times to stop themlol, the amount of men who have died assaulting prepared positions just after saying or being told by their commander something like that
>>221145930The "servants" were more like slaves lol. Cape coloreds. They mostly reloaded muskets and stabbed any Bantu that made it into the laager.
>>221145213Policing action.
>>221142270do you know how many implicit calculation and abstractions you just did there?nothing to us, but supercomputation for others.
>>221142547close order infantry with javelins will absolutely wreck 100 irregular cavalry, what could they really do aside from dismount and join the defensive lines?but ya they went home>>221142588>>221145860every culture and people i've ever read of immediately recognized the incredible power of firearms once they saw them demonstrated, and went to great lengths to acquire themthere were lots of rifles on the zulu side at roukes drift and i think actually the majority of brit casualties where from zulu fire
>>221142371look at the state of britain now, where is your spirit gone?
>>221151477The Boers were devout and God was testing their faith.
>>221153840The zulus had lots of muzzle loaders but their marksmanship and tactics were really poor
>>221153863The boers are calvinist retards and God hates calvinists, it's why they're always living next to negros, as punishment for their apostasy.
>>221151477it's an 1830s report from africa written by dutchmen, it's basically a fairy tale
>>221153895Even the zulu remember it as a huge disaster
>>221153891this desuever notice how the catholic countries in Europe tend to have the nicest environments and climates? It's not a coincidence
>>221145526>1800 british vs 10,000 zulus>zulus still took 3 to 5 thousand casualtiesit's not a great victory you think it is
>>221153883truebut the idea that niggers simply 'don't know what guns are' and tales of thundersticks is ridiculous or just bait
>>221153936given the technology gap it's bretty good it's like going up against a guy 4 ages ahead of you in rise of nations, you're gonna take some losses
>>221153880whoever makes these edits takes it up the assit's straight up disrespectful to the British dudes and nazi dudes that died in real wars
>>221153895Is it that hard to believe that thousands of spear-chucking nigger retards couldn't take down a wagon fort full of guns?IRL, things don't work like a video game. Yes, if they were zerglings, they would've been crushed. But they weren't zerglings. They were nigs who got scared and pissed their loincloths when they saw people being mowed down by grapeshot blasts in front of them.
>>221151564The commies that took over aren't exactly winning either, infact they are begging for whitey to come back.
>>221153895Agreed, only one white was injured.
>>221150452i remember we watched this in my history course and then had to discuss it, and i got the stink eye from my professor because i defended britain
>>221154190Based, I was also an edgy chud back in school. I even defended slavery, but I mostly did that to irritate the black kid because I hated him worse than anyone else in my class. I got in trouble for telling him he should be my slave and actually had clear skin but was full of shit so that's why he looked brown.
>>221153963That was the only major loss of the whole war and happened at the start.So it was a good victory from the zulu stand point but didn't achieve anything
>>221154257lol I wasn't trying to be edgy, I just thought the movie was kinda of pretentious. Plus I'd actually been to India before, and knew how it only existed thanks to Britain.
>>221150452Something like this should've happened at the BLM riots.
>>221145526A solar eclipse occurred during this battle. Zulu's couldn't win without a literal act of God.
>>221142240Were the zulus retarded
>>221154190There's a bollywood version that was in rrr, so it's the same but with shitty looking British uniforms and jeetified special effects making every gunshot wound spray out 5 gallons of cgi blood.
>>221142371An interesting thing about the Zulu Empire is that it was entirely reliant on European farmers. It didn't exist until Boer farmers moved into the area with more efficient farming methods. This allowed the Zulus to dedicate their entire male population to warfare and trade for all their food instead of farming on their own. Since no other tribes did this this helped the Zulus develop a much bigger army that was more willing to take risks in battle and a strong military tradition that allowed them to curbstomp all the neighboring tribes.That said the Zulus ability to adapt to a changing South Africa and quickly develop tactics tailored to their unique position was pretty amazing.
>>221154397Yes, but their tactics did BTFO the bushmen, so clearly it was good vs. poisoned arrows. Just not against guns.And arrows would've been shit against guns too. That's why everyone used guns when they had the opportunity. When you see some american movie with natives using bows, that's mostly an anachronism. They used guns whenever they had them, because bows were vastly inferior. Arrows have less range and do way less damage even if they hit you. The whole reason people stopped using armor is because gun shot would go right through it, as opposed to arrows which would deflect. That's what a difference it makes. The amount of kinetic energy can't even be compared.
>>221145177Read Flashman
>>221154397all small scale primitive/tribal whatever warfare is 90% posturing and dodging missiles, they basically use what they hunt with same in warmost of the real damage is through raiding and ambushgo watch videos of tribes in new guinea fightingi don't know much about zulu history, but they conquered all the tribes around them and seemed to have developed a form a warfare that was specifically suited to breaking the traditional form and decisively beating their enemies in large battle?i mean theres a reason they were a noted threat as opposed to just some unorganized bushmen you could scare off with a few shotsthis close order infantry fighting the zulus were developing to squash their arrow throwing neighbors would have made the greeks proud

Movie when?
>>221145526
>>221155785I love this video, even though it's fake it could be true especially the part where they keep driving instead of trying to help
>>221155983Historically, jeets actually had a problem with man-eating tigers who would attack villagers. The jeets formed a symbiotic relationship with british safari-type guys who wanted to hunt big dangerous game, so they would go over there and try to find man-eating tigers to hunt, so they could mount the heads on the walls of their manors and show off to each other, and the villagers wouldn't have to worry about the tigers eating them anymore.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis-Napol%C3%A9on,_Prince_ImperialLouis-Napoléon, Prince Imperial (Napoléon Eugène Louis Jean Joseph Bonaparte; 16 March 1856 – 1 June 1879), also known as Louis-Napoléon, was the only child of Napoleon III, Emperor of the French, and Empress Eugénie. After his father was dethroned in 1870, he moved to England with his family. On his father's death in January 1873, he was proclaimed by the Bonapartist faction as Napoléon IV.During the 1870s, there was some talk of a marriage between him and Queen Victoria's youngest daughter, Princess Beatrice.[8] Queen Victoria also reportedly believed that it would be best for "the peace of Europe" if the prince became Emperor of France.[8] The prince remained a devout Catholic, and he retained hopes that the Bonapartist cause might eventually triumph if the secularising Third Republic failed. With the outbreak of the Zulu War in 1879, the prince, with the rank of lieutenant, forced the hand of the British military to allow him to take part in the conflict, despite the objections of Rouher and other Bonapartists.
>>221156183On the morning of 1 June 1879, the troop set out, earlier than intended and without the whole escort, largely owing to the prince's impatience.[citation needed] Led by Carey, the scouts rode deeper into Zululand. Without Harrison or Buller present to restrain him, the prince took command from Carey, even though the latter had seniority. At noon, the prince halted the troop at a temporarily deserted kraal. The prince and Carey made some sketches of the terrain and used part of the thatch to make a fire. No lookout was posted. As they were preparing to leave, about 40 Zulus fired upon them and rushed towards them, screaming.[1] The prince ran to mount his horse and was able to grab onto the holster on the saddle of his horse. The prince's horse then dashed off before he could mount. After about 90 metres (100 yards), the strap the prince was clinging to broke and the horse kicked the prince in the belly, winding him. The prince fell beneath his horse, and his right arm was trampled. He leapt up, drawing his revolver with his left hand, and started to run, but the Zulus outpaced him.[10]
>>221156201The prince fired three shots from his revolver at his assailants, but he missed each shot. The prince then fired two more shots, albeit slower, in order to better aim. However, these, too, missed.[11] One of the prince's assailants, a Zulu named Langalibalele, threw his spear at the prince, but missed.[12] Another spear, thrown by a Zulu named Zabanga, struck the prince's left shoulder.[13] The prince tried to fight on, wielding the spear thrown by Langalibalele in his right hand and his revolver in his left.[14] However, weakened by his wounds, the prince sank to the ground and was overwhelmed. Zabanga stabbed the prince again with an assegai, followed by Gwabakana; and then the prince suffered a final blow from Klabawathunga – who stabbed the prince in the right eye – penetrating the prince's brain and killing him. When the prince's corpse was recovered the next day, it was found naked and an examination by surgeon-major F. B. Scott counted 18 wounds, all of which were stab wounds, as well as an enlarged and gaping royal bussy.[15]
>>221156219>as well as an enlarged and gaping royal bussy.what a sad ending for napoleon legacy
>>221156243Napoleon was a nigger, so it's a fitting end to his bloodline.
>>221156054Similar phenomenon happened in Africa. I saw an exhibit in Chicago about it, some maneater lion was killed by a richfag Brit sport hunter.

>>221156054>>221156455Must have been fun traveling around the world with your homies hunting lions and tigers.
>>221156543Being an Englishman of noble birth at the height of the Empire was probably the peak human experience.
>>221156973Having seen and read about the Charge of the Light Brigade, I doubt it.Looks like they were casually cunty to each other on such a level that they got killed over it constantly.In fact if you pull up any english historical bit form that era it's always about some cunt being terminally cunty to another cunt and cocking everything up.
Movie is a lie. There was an Indian regiment that provided vital support, won the battle for the Britishers.
>>221157237kek, the Zulus smelled them from miles away
>>221157237It's kinda silly that the British just dropped jeets around the planet as 2nd-class citizens to watch over their even more retarded 3rd-class nigger citizens. Didn't Gandhi himself grow up in Africa?
>>221158633He went to South Africa after law school and was offended that he was treated like a nigger.
>>221145579>picBut that's actually a good way to handle things? Leaving a widow alive means someone is going to be made into a cuck raising someone else's children. Better the whole family goes with the patriarch, like how it was in Pharaonic Egypt.
>>221158652Poor guy. Makes sense why he coped by giving underaged girls enemas.
>>221158682>like how it was in Pharaonic Egypt.so you wuz kangs, ranjeesh?
>>221158747When the Pharaoh died, his entire court would be entombed with him, including his servants, his wife, his concubines, and any children who weren't heirs to the dynasty. This is a direct continuation of the sacred Laws of Kronos: the father owns the household, all within the household are his, and he alone chooses when they die.
>>221142671>I think shorter range ones than the britsIn the movie they also had martinity henrys, looted from the previous battle depicted in Zulu Dawn supposedly.

>>221158772But what does any of that have to do with jeets lighting widows on fire?
>>221142240Kept putting off watching this for years for some reason. Saw thread, bit the bullet. Movie's rad as fuck. That is all.
>>221146329This dude was a rock. The best kind of person to have in that rank and position. Every company should hope to have a Frank Bourne.

>>221142371>The British simply did not retreat when the Zulu charged, the combat did not devolve into a swirling melee massacre. The times the British were defeated were because they were caught in stupid positions and ended up stretched into a line while being outflanked as at IsandlwanaCould it then be argued that the fact that many of the British were not fit to retreat actually worked to their advantage?
>>221162272Imagine getting your asses kicked by a group of people who were not fit to retreat. How can all of the former colonies of Britain ever recover from this?
>>221142240MIDDLE RANKtime for crumpets and tea
>>221142240I liked Bromhead's character development. Typical dickhead officer but he manned up. The rebellious malingering dude was fucking annoying, and I guess the dude's daughter hated the portrayal and walked out of the theater. Good movie, we shan't be getting another one like it.

>>221161183The Vedic people were once Aryan. But they didn't follow the sacred Laws of Kronos.
>>221163063So it has nothing to do with jeets lighting widows on fire.
>>221154583yeah, their development was called "just don't care about dying". turns out, this makes you really dangerous in war. apparently, they would spend hours chanting before battles to enter into a trance state that let them ignore all fear, or something like that. then they just charge towards the enemy and ignore their own casualties. works great if your enemies are giga-retarded, I guess. or you outnumber them 20:1.
>>221163079They light widows on fire as a weak continuation of the Laws of Kronos. If they killed the entire family after the patriarch of the family expires, they would be a better people.
>>221163140No that sounds like some inverted pussy shit. Men protect they don't throw tantrums and demand their loved ones die.What a sick, retarded, backwards retarded culture.
>>221153840>what could they really do aside from dismount and join the defensive lines?Attack them when they are engaged.Harass the flanks and supporting lines.Merely stay in the area so their presence needs to be accounted for by the Zulu.
>>221163202In Rome, the father of the household was legally allowed to kill anyone in the household.
>>221163294And? What does that have to do with jeets lighting widows on fire?
>>221150434ah yes, the Somalians. A martial, impressive people.
>>221163383There's a hint of a good idea there.
>>221161298It's part of the "Sweatcore" genre alongside other classics like Aguirre, Fitzcaraldo, Sorcerer and Lawrence of Arabia
>>221163429You conflate having authority over a family with a desire to destroy that family. You are not a man.
>>221164238That authority should include the ability to destroy said family or any member of said family.
>>221142371How long does it normaly take for others to copy a new and successful invention in warfare tactics like this?
>>221142240Should I watch this? Seems like everyone here just enjoys it because it's about killing Africans but is it actually a good movie outside of that?
>>221164316Yeah it's good
>>221164265I wish you were my son.
>>221164410You have no argument. The old ways are proven correct once more.
>>221164433Don't be like that, son.
>>221156973>Being an Englishman of noble birth at the height of the Empire was probably the peak human experience.Genuinely yes, except of course not having modern conveniences.
>>221164539>not having modern conveniences.Largely overrated

>>221164539They had their own problems
>>221142270one of things that Gate anime got right was that bayonet fitted rifles are an insanely good weapon. getting past the volleyfire is only half the battle, especially as they're still in formation in a defensive position, you're out of breath and your ranks have dwindled.

It's a shame that we'll never get some movies of the more based British exploits in Africa.>Benin 1897>African nation slaughters all the non British people in an unarmed trade delegation and holds the British part of it hostage in return for guns>Britain sends negotiators saying "you really don't want to do that, let them go and we can still be on good relations">Benin agrees to let them go>changes their mind after releasing them and recaptures them and the negotiators>Britain sends a small expeditionary force that slaughters every enermy force on the way to the fortress in the capital where they are held>the ruler panics and starts doing ritual sacrifices in the hope of beating the British>British arrive at the city and the streets are lined with women who have been flayed alive or vivisected>British take the fortress with zero resistance and very little civilian casualties and kill the ruler>try to figure out who to hand the fortress over too, realise that whoever they hand it to will use it to kill the ones who don't get it and just flatten the fortess instead.>leaveThe annoying thing is that we're trying to be shamed into handing back the treasures from the fortress that were taken as repairations. Maybe they shouldn't have committed war crimes then followed it up with crimes against humanity.

>>221164944>'As we neared Benin City we passed several human sacrifices, live women slaves gagged and pegged on their backs to the ground, the abdominal wall being cut in the form of a cross, and the uninjured gut hanging out. These poor women were allowed to die like this in the sun. Men slaves, with their hands tied at the back and feet lashed together, also gagged, were lying about. As we neared the city, sacrificed human beings were lying in the path and bush—even in the king's compound the sight and stench of them was awful. Dead and mutilated bodies were everywhere – by God! May I never see such sights again! . . .'

>>221167625depressingly accurate
>>221142240Tactically speaking, having your only two officers in the same line is not wise. There should be at least two fronts of fire, and the officers not bunched up so in the event one goes down, another can still take charge.

>>221146215the turn to socialism was caused by the same issues that causes the downfall of the Empire. Britain went so far as to strip out the copper to win WW2, and even then they had to leave a lot of the war to the Americans and the Russians. they had burned their money, their blood, and their reputation. the colonies had lost faith in the English way of life and in England's ability to defend it, and Britain had no way to to enforce it both financially and socially. the people in charge knew that the colonies going it alone was inevitable, so they figured parting ways amicably rather than dealing with a cascade of independence revolutions was the preferable option. no Brit ib 1947 would've wanted to go to war to stop India from going independent. no Brit in 1962 would've wanted to go to war to stop Kenya from going independent. Brits were broke and burnt out on war. the Winds of Change was one way that manifested, another was in turning towards a political system that promised perpwtual peace and prosperity.
>>221147311the rank and file for the British effort in the Pacific was mostly Indians, with Anglo officers. It's part of why the Japs so easily overran British positions there.
>>221172835They weren't conscripted.
>>221155785fake, there are no lions in India
>>221142606>>221142671IIRC the movie implies that the natives had slaughtered some whites that morning, and were fiddling around with the rifles, and by the afternoon they had figured out how to use them and were sniping into the British enclosure from the surrounding hills.Pretty good movie even if it is only 80% historical accurate.

>>221172964Fucking moron, the British only allowed certain Indian ethnic groups to ENLIST because they recognized that most of the Indian population were physically inept mental defectives. There was no conscription, de facto or otherwise.

>>221173712I never said recruitment is conscription, ESL. Who are you arguing against? The article also doesn't mention oxygen being essential for life; ergo, you should stop breathing air.
