    Default Perfect song to a battle

    I was playing as GB and I sent an army to help the Crimean Khanate. The armies of Great Britain and Russia met in battle. well I had my entire music library on random and all the sudden I hear The Trooper by Iron Maiden kick in as my Line Infantry engaged the Russians. I was happy and won the battle. lol I just thought it was funny

    Beautiful.

    I've found that a lot of stuff by Tool works well with land battles too. And, of course, The Imperial March.

    Lol, those are some nice melodies. The soundtrack for ETW is not that bad either. Better battle and campaign music then MTW2 and RTW. ETWs sounds and music seem more upbeat to me. Lol, maybe I am just not sick of it yet.

    Perhaps one could use historic marches for really big battles.

    Hohenfrieder

    Prinz Eugen

    Old prussian parade march

    The Grenadiers

    La Marche des Mousquetaires Noirs

    The March of the volunteer Jaeger

    La Marche des Grognards (Garde impériale)

    Voyna i Mir
    So many of them

    After the "national" insurrections it should make sense also to play the national anthems, for example after the French revolution La Marseillaise

    Funny that The Trooper should come on under those cirmustances! You should have suicide charged some light cavalry at the russian guns!
