ITT: Post battles in which the least numerous side has a great K/D ratio

>18% of the manpower
>28% of the casualties
That's not really all that great.

...

Hahaha soviets suck at war honestly

user...

A name of the battle would be helpful

...

>loses more men than they started with
>only in Russia

2nd Jassy Kishinev

...

>February 1945

You realise those soldiers were probably elderly veterans or underage with little training

it's their fault for expanding all their able bodied men
so much for muh k/d

>Germany: population 70 mil
>USSR: population 200 mil

should've not declare war with a country almost three times your population i guess?

>expend thousands of troops to capture bits of mud in a swamp
>Praise Ali what a ""victory""

I mean those K/D numbers aren't super crazy

Italy's a contender for that as well though

here's my favourite k/d ratio
it's better than German ones because Finns are fucking inferior in all regards except willpower

...

>muh Panthers

lmao

Can't have a thread like this without bringing up the Mongols

I venture to say the the Portuguese warrior is the most fearsome of all and Anglos are the most cheeky.

>African colonial wars

That's just cheating
Shit was just too easy

>ywn see air to air helicopter combat

fuck this was the last great war

not even the best hussite commanders

gg ez

...

>nobody has posted the GOAT of all battles

During invasion Germany+allies and occupied population had quite bigger population than USSR.

this, Hitlerites controlled 2,4x population that Soviet government in late 1941

Italy was a mistake

Good ol' Romania

Pure, concentrated slave morality

>that giant estimated range
Yeah, I'm calling bullshit.

Gayr*ek subhumans BTFO.

pure fucking treason

mount tabor isn't in the middle of the desert

>4300 casualties

This is considered a huge sacrifice in America. Meanwhile at Stalingrad or Kursk that would be the red army's hourly casualties

>This
Canucks, amirite?

Ok

>America's hat lost 313 troops invading an empty island.
>BTFO

most of these should work

rude.. we had wins too en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Bizani

Germany underperformed massively

This is the battle that for me proves the superiority of the Wehrmacht as a fighting force. I'm not a wehraboo, I think the Germans got what they deserved by declaring a war on the entire fucking planet with 0 industrial base to back it up.

Look at this shit, the Soviets had a higher number of casualties than the number of troops they started with! The Germans just wouldn't let go

why hasn't anyone just wiped Italy off the map yet? the Wehrmacht would've been better off turning their guns against those animals and deal with (((them))) later.

what? did they chased them down a cliff?

Perhaps the greatest humiliation that the British Empire suffered during WW1, other than the Somme.

I think the Germans problem is that they took the wrong lesson from Frederick the Great. He was a great commander, and had well-drilled troops, but he somehow got himself facing France, Russia, Austria, and Sweden simultaneously. But in the end he survived the Seven Years War through a stroke of incredible luck when the Russian Empress died, and the successor was a Prussiaboo. The lesson learned from that should have been "value diplomacy, and don't get yourself in that situation to begin with", not "we can take on the world".

Wouldn't a REAL prussiabo have wanted to absorb Prussia into the Russian empire?

If you truly love something, the best act is to let them be free.

All I want is a timeline where I can be a Russo-boo and Germa-boo at the same time. Why do my two historical favorite empires have to constantly wreck each other? It's not fair.

DESIGNATED

They're always well trained and efficient, but if the war isn't over fast they out strip their own economy

Technically he was facing France, but he BTFO'd them so bad they decided to never field an army against him again.

Ah yes, the winter war. A perfect example of russian "victory".

>Soviets defeat Germans after few years of fights
>It was only thanks to general Winter

>Soviet army literally freezes to death by 10'000s in Finland
>muh k/d

At least it emboldened Hitler to go dick first into the meatgrinder that was the USSR, ridding us of fascism once and for all.

> ridding us of fascism once and for all.

WRONG

>any war in the Israel-arab conflict

I remember that one

Not sure if it's been posted, and can't be fucked to look.
Carrhae

That Prussiaboo kaiser didn't have the political support at home to do anything that drastic, only to end the war.

He was considered a weak-willed ruler, and got his throne usurped by his wife, who would crown herself Empress Eкaтepинa II.

bleh, prussiaboo Tzar

>You realise those soldiers were probably elderly veterans or underage with little training
>there is no way they were battle hardned vererans who lost
git gud

Hill 262 was a hell of a drug

> We machinegunned down some pygmies armed with sharpened twigs. Muh KDA.

The worst part was they showed up in Northern Germany and the Soviets were sitting there in the way with massive trollfaces on and they couldn't even go home because no one cared about them enough to fight WW3.

>defeat Napoleon, greatest military commander of his era
>sail to New Orleans
>get BTFO by a bunch of dumbass redneck hicks
What went wrong?

Andrew Jackson is literally invincible

>win thoroughly during the war
>gets whipped by both America and the USSR
>shows your population that you're both 2nd rate powers now
>makes Egypt join the soviet camp
>creates a political crisis in your countries
>inadvertently fuck over the Hungarian

Got too used to field battles and not enough with assaulting fortifications.

I mean ffs, the facines and ladders for getting over the ramparts were at the BACK of the attack columns and the entire attack plan relied on fog staying around long enough to cover the advance, like they thought luck would always play out in their favour.

>what are German "muh hordes" excuse
>what is Soviet loss system when wounded soldiers are counted lost as well, even if they recover

So, 1941 when Germany scored huge k/d because of untrained soldiers is okay, but when the situation is reversed in 1945 it doesn't count. You, sir, are a top tier retard.

What theme/style are you using?

>defeat Napoleon

>brits
>defeating us

>What went wrong?

British soldiers
At Waterloo, less than 15% of Allied troops present were British
At New Orleans, it was 100% British
