What tactic used by Napoleon was not used in the US Civil War?
ChuckSiata
Unlike Napoleon, US Civil War Generals were not anxious to adopt a tactic used successfully by Napoleon. This was the use of a "specialized reserve" he called the Imperial Guard that was specially designed to enter a battle at a certain crisis stage and change the course of a battle. The reserves used by US Civil War generals were not like Napoleon's Imperial Guard. Under Napoleon, this force was designed to strike a crushing blow at the psychological moment an enemy had already been weakened. Napoleon would first clear the way for his Guard by artillery. The Imperial Guard would then seize the main position, and lastly his cavalry would enter and exploit any opportunity the first two stages had created.
