The advantage that the defenders of the Alamo had were they were behind the protection of the walls of the Alamo which they used as a fort. Bullets that would kill in an open field only hit the walls of the Alamo. Some disadvantages of the Alamo was they were trapped with 10,000 armed soldiers around them, they were limited to the supplies they had inside of their building and they could not retreat. They had to make their stand or die.

∙ 13y agoThe Texian garrison of the Alamo consisted of about 185 men, besides women, children, and slaves. The Mexican army consisted of about 7,000 men. The Texians were thus outnumbered about 37 to 1. The average siege with firearms and cannon requires at least a 20 to 1 numerical superiority in manpower and firepower in order to succeed. The Texians only lost once they ran out of ammunition.
