This is the first part of a 3 part series about skirmishing in the Napoleonic wars, their tactics and weapons used during the fights. This first video is introducing the the basic tactics and formations, as well as some preliminary information about the French 1777M musket. The second part will be about the detailed history of the French 1777 and the Austrian 1798 musket, while the third part will be some super cool experimental archaeology: we will recreate the original cartridges and check their effectiveness against a single enemy soldier at various distances.
