Das Maschinengewehr - 3 ist meiner Ansicht nach die beste handgetragene Niederhaltungswaffe. Mit Ihrem Gewicht von zirka 12 Kilogramm ist sie zwar etwas auf der schwereren Seite der Waffen, allerdings vergisst man diesen kleinen Nachteil sofort wenn man sich vor Augen hält, dass dieses Maschinengewehr bis zu Eintausendzweihundert Schuss pro Minute vom Kaliber 7.62x51mm verschießt. Einem solchen Kugelhagel hält man von einer behelfsmäßigen Feldstellung auf keinen Fall stand. Trotz der schlimmen Vorgeschichte dieser Waffe (Ursprünglich MG42 , Nachgänger des MG34) ist sie bis heute in puncto Feuerrate und Optik meiner Meinung nach unübertroffen. Hope you enjoyed that, but I can't be bothered to translate that little rant into english, just slap it into google translate and you'll be fine . Cheers, mate ! =)

This Danish movie is pretty + good honest What people dont realize the Danish Army was actually slightly bigger than Prussia's just a priori to the war and on top of this Denmark had a real Navy, which Prussia mostly lacked. At the time Denmark was considered one of the preeminent military powers of Northern Europe. And they (thought) they had England as an ally and so that it would all be a cakewalk. So they recklessly provoked a war with Pussia by breaking the Schleswig treaty ( which stipulated they could not abuse the german population of that province and forced them to not speak german etc) and sent provocative missives to the Prussia King. But the Prussians had made quite a few improvements to the firepower of thier Army and the effectiveness of theirs leadership, so they were quite confident and did not mind a Danish attack at all since they ere eager to use their expensive military to improve their standing in Europe and among the german states. Also, as the Prussians expected, England abandoned the Danes, since they were the ones who broke the treaty and on top of that the Austrians sent generous help to the Prussians. The Danish movie is quite honest about all these things. Ultimately the war was decided by Prussian artillery which was quite superior and so more than made up that Denmark's military was slightly larger. Prussian and Austrian "Special Forces" (for the time) the Deaths head Hussars also contributed out of proportion to their numbers. On top of that the Prussians had the better generalship and staffs and so in the end it was a crushing defeat for the Danes. Denmark would never again be considered a powerful country in Europe.

It's weird to think that in 1864 in America we were using muskets and fighting hundreds of feet apart in the civil war, but in Prussia they literally had Howitzers and were fighting miles apart with *very early* bolt-action rifles. Huh.
Lets just forget that the American's had Cannon with a 2 mile range and the Union Calvary was armed almost exclusively with lever action carbines. . . you think the Prussians also didn't have to fight "hundreds of feet apart" with their rifles???
And that did the US military good, because the germans went through numerous rifles in the 40 year time period, the USA went through 3 till 1903. the springfield black powder rifle, the trap door springfield, and the model 1898 Krag-Jorgenson bolt action rifle, until the 1903 was adopted and used in ww1
By 1864, the war had evolved into stagnant trench warfare, so fighting hundred feet became the norm. Both sides of the civil war were students of Napoleon's strategies and tactics, and since their last major war was with a Napoleon wannabe in the Mexican-American war. But then a generation later, Europe would learn what America did about the horrors of trench warfare.

@@KC2761-d5x 'schlachten' means to slaughter, conventionally used when killing an animal for food. It's very rarely used when talking about the killing of humans and if so, it implies a very barbaric, gruesome even sadistic way of doing so. Even then you'd rather say someone got 'massakriert'. 'Die Schlacht' means 'The battle' and barely carries any heavy implications besides the fact of two or more armies battling with each other. Though, if it is clear that one side has no chance whatsoever due to any uneven odds, you could say that it is or was ein 'Gemetzel'. And last but not least, 'Geschnetzteltes', is a gravy based dish, tipically made of chicken or pork, which is cut in small slices.
While the battery officer in this scene seems to be convinced of their obvious superiority and force in artillery power, he considers the future 'Gemetzel' to come a glorious 'Schlacht'.

@Chilly T Having so few line companies would've actually hurt him as Prussia. Prussian line infantry gets a massive buff to reload time and morale. Using large amounts of cavalry and skirmishers would completely fuck him over, but if you don't have that, running to close range from the beginning would work too.
There's a another mistake in the script, Goeben says "geriffelter Lauf" when referring to the rifled barrels of the howitzers, but in German the term is "gezogener Lauf".
@@brent0935 I don't think so. A "geriffelter Lauf" is when the barrel grooves on the outside to make it more stable if a barrel is very long for instance. But what he means is a "gezogener Lauf" aka the rifling of that barrel.

France has been the most important power post-Rome Did you forget that France had help from the Confederation of the Rhine since in 1806. Bavaria, Baden and Württemberg were allied with France before that. And did you forget 1814, 1815 and 1870. And in 1918 no enemy was on German ground. Germans on the other hands stood a few kilometers away from Paris. You’re name is false too. France wasn’t the most important power after Rome. Under Constantin the Great the Roman Empire was ruled from the city of Trier which is in Germany. And no, Trier wasn’t founded by the Romans. It was founded in 2050 BC by the king who also founded Nineveh. So 1300 years before Rome was founded. Germany and its former forms were the dominant power in Europe for ca. 1160 years. France for ca. 500 years (Germany and France share 300 years - Frankish Kingdom) Frankish Kingdom 511 - 843, Holy Roman Empire 962 - 1648, German Empire 1871 - today (except 1923). France: Frankish Kingdom 511 - 843, Kingdom of France 1648 - 1815. Germany even have around the same amount of battles won like France. You must count the the battles like this: Germanic tribes, Frankish Kingdom, East Frankish Kingdom, Holy Roman Empire, Confederation of the Rhine and Prussia and Austria, German Confederation, North German Confederation, German Empire, Weimar Republic, Third Reich, East and West Germany and modern day Germany. Total: 1100 or more battles won.
Learned that one of my great great great grandpas fought in this war for Prussia while the others were fighting for the Union in the American Civil War.
Saw someone else mention it, but they said German wasn't their native language so I'll ask you: is it completely inaccurate or is the difference more tone and such?
@@Memphismastermind They took some liberty in tense and syntax but thats hard to come by and (in my opinion) there are better synonymes - I for example would've translated "heftigste Schlacht" to "fiercest battle". They went with Schlacht = Slaughter (of people) instead of "battle" which isn't necessarily wrong but a bit of an exaggeration (in my opinion)

"This will be one of the greatest battles in our history" - is the correct translation. Not massacres.
You guessed it, I'm german.
I'm not German and that kinda confused me too, I guess they just heard Schlacht and thought it means slaughter
@@KC2761-d5x 'schlachten' means to slaughter, conventionally used when killing an animal for food.
It's very rarely used when talking about the killing of humans and if so, it implies a very barbaric, gruesome even sadistic way of doing so. Even then you'd rather say someone got 'massakriert'.
'Die Schlacht' means 'The battle' and barely carries any heavy implications besides the fact of two or more armies battling with each other.
Though, if it is clear that one side has no chance whatsoever due to any uneven odds, you could say that it is or was ein 'Gemetzel'.
And last but not least, 'Geschnetzteltes', is a gravy based dish, tipically made of chicken or pork, which is cut in small slices.
While the battery officer in this scene seems to be convinced of their obvious superiority and force in artillery power, he considers the future 'Gemetzel' to come a glorious 'Schlacht'.
Know who didn't consider it glorious? - - - You guessed it, Frank Stallone.

The truth I Meant 1918 my mistake
France has been the most important power post-Rome
Did you forget that France had help from the Confederation of the Rhine since in 1806. Bavaria, Baden and Württemberg were allied with France before that. And did you forget 1814, 1815 and 1870. And in 1918 no enemy was on German ground. Germans on the other hands stood a few kilometers away from Paris. You’re name is false too. France wasn’t the most important power after Rome. Under Constantin the Great the Roman Empire was ruled from the city of Trier which is in Germany. And no, Trier wasn’t founded by the Romans. It was founded in 2050 BC by the king who also founded Nineveh. So 1300 years before Rome was founded. Germany and its former forms were the dominant power in Europe for ca. 1160 years. France for ca. 500 years (Germany and France share 300 years - Frankish Kingdom) Frankish Kingdom 511 - 843, Holy Roman Empire 962 - 1648, German Empire 1871 - today (except 1923). France: Frankish Kingdom 511 - 843, Kingdom of France 1648 - 1815. Germany even have around the same amount of battles won like France. You must count the the battles like this: Germanic tribes, Frankish Kingdom, East Frankish Kingdom, Holy Roman Empire, Confederation of the Rhine and Prussia and Austria, German Confederation, North German Confederation, German Empire, Weimar Republic, Third Reich, East and West Germany and modern day Germany. Total: 1100 or more battles won.
