Redcoats' tactics WERE for victory, not valour.
That's kind of the point I was trying to make.
If at first you don't succeed, don't take up skydiving.

If you recall how Napoleon's army was defeated, as well as San Antonio of Mexico, they let the armies (redcoats) chase their armies until the battlefield (narrow) was to their advantage, and devastated greater numbers.

It is a good idea, but hard to implement.
