Waterloo 1815


Napoleon decides to wait a few hours more to give the ground time to dry out for his Artillery, these extra few hours will give the Prussians time to arrive and cost him the battle and the war.

The time wasted on that morning in 1815 changed the history of Europe forever, so let's just enjoy the moment when Boney made the decision...
