112,000 British redcoats from late 1700's against 100 modern US army rangers.
Discuss.

well, people in red coats in new england > forest
not gonna profit

reds

>over 90 thousands
>against 100 with lotta weapons
>1/10 a million
>against 1/10000
Are you fucking kidding me? It's überrape.

well, the redcoats cannot fire unless directed. so, kill the captain=problem solved.

us army rangers win automatically. they are alive, the British soldiers are dead about 200 years or so

this too. lol

I think 1 tank could take on them all lolol.
There from the late 1700s...
-
but from a theoretical point of view (Franklin...) i think the modern us forces would win considering that Muskets have extremely (and i mean EXTREMELY) bad accuracy at around that time (it was for a while till they improved them for more accuracy) and even if they managed to hit the us soliders (who arnt just running around naked they are wearing something underneath all that badass clothes.) it will definetly not be enough to kill him
WHILE
well ever played call of duty or battle field bad company 2?
US > Redcoats
they couldnt beat us 200 years ago what makes you think they could be us now?

Let's see, a typical musket shot exerted around 1000 pounds of force on the area it hit.
A Ranger armor vest is able to stop 9x19mm and .44 Magnum rounds.
9x19mm rounds = at most 704 pounds of force
.44 magnum rounds = at least 1,524 pounds of force
Typical musket bullet (from a RIFLED musket, which gives the bullet more accuracy and velocity, which the redcoats lacked) = around 1,000 pounds of force
9x19mm < musket round
musket round < .44 magnum
.44 magnum < Ranger vest
And even then, the vest would take out most of the round's velocity, effectively making it nothing but a sting.
argument = invalid

>100,00
Learn to write/type/speak(whatever you want to call it) and then tell me 100 men can beat 100k men.

redcoats win.
in the case that the military has armored vehicles I doubt the redcoats would be able to do much. How much damage can a musket bullet do to thick steel and near unbreakable treads. military wins
-
Rangers for sure. Musket effective range: 50 yards
M16A2 effective range 800 yards (for large targets like red coat formations) so all they have to do is shoot walk back a bit then shoot some more.

ITS YOUR CHILDREN MARTY.
>teleports back in time
>magically fits 100 rangers in the delorian
>??
>redcoats are like "dude sweet car"
US army wins.

Oh god lol it's like the Battle at Thermopylae with the Spartans and Persians, except instead of 300 vs. 300,000 it would be 100 vs. 100,000. It's the same ratio, so you would think the Rangers would lose, but perform greatly and die with honor just like the Spartans, yeah?
I'm afraid not as the weapons, tactics, and armour are way too advanced for the Redcoats. With zero or minimal armour, the Redcoats would be torn to shreds with their tight formations and heavy exposure. Let's say the Rangers just had a few tanks. I can almost guarentee not a single musket round would penetrate the armour specifically designed to withstand low caliber bullets, such as the musket rounds.
In summation, though enemies would seem almost endless, the immense firepower and armour of the Rangers, paired along with the poor tactics, accuracy, and armour of the Redcoats would lead to an immenent victory for the Rangers, or about any modern-day army in fact.
-
Rangers. 75 infantry, 25 snipers.
-
1 skilled marksman with a suppressed weapon
many redcoats would possible commit suicide in fear, rest would run away, not knowing that is happened
-
redcoats win.
Simple because no vehicles are mentioned in the OP yes their bullets will do jack shit to the soldiers but 100,000 men can simple just stab the 100 soldiers and their dead
Doesn't matter the weapons the soldiers have they will run out of ammo long before the redcoats get killed each soldiers carries about 2 clips on them plus one in the gun so thats 90 bullets per solider 90 x 100 = 9000 assuming they can get one kill per shot they still have to fight 91,000 redcoats...
So now its 91,000 to 100 and the soldiers have no more weapons to use clearly redcoats win.

Terrain is a factor.
-
100 Suicide bombers would be interesting.
-
100 rangers with rpgs and grenades.
-
low caliber bullets, such as the musket rounds.
If I remember correctly from history class, some musket rounds had a diameter over .6 inches. That's not low caliber in any way.

they lose no matter what in the end

The typical musket round was .7, but it was flying relatively slowly.
Velocity is a factor in stopping power, too, not just caliber!

Pellet guns are similar to muskets I would think ._.

no but with a velocity of fucking slow, it wouldn't matter much, so long as the was in modern body armor.

George Washington runs all over the reds with his Dodge Challenger.
