Well, the Coldstream Guards were of absolutely no help to the Grande Armee, and neither were those pesky Pavlov Grenadiers. Oh, you mean that was in the Grande Armee. That's easy- Yorck's entire corps of Prussians in 1812, the Saxons in 1813 (and the infantry in 1809), Romana's Spanish contingent. |

Hi David I suspect you are right. They could have been Napoleon's secret weapon if they came across a Regiment of Vampires
