What was it, 183 Texans against a Mexican army of 1,500?
How do you think the Texas Army would fare assuming the following:
1) You and 3 other modern day infantrymen traveled in time to join forces defending the Alamo
2) Each of you were able to carry a single .45 caliber handgun with 3 extraclips magazines plus a single M16 rifle with 3 extra clips magazines (basically an average of 150 242 or so total rounds of firepower per person or 600 968 combined rounds right?)
3) In addition, each man is supplied with 4 hand grenades
ALL other normal conditions apply: start of the attack begins normally and you and your time traveling force arrive 15 mins before the attach begins...
Let's assume the (4) of you were stationed at one per corner of the fort....
Do you think that this scenario would have been enough manpower to combat the Mexican Army and actually win the battle? It basically would have added the equivalent of600 968 additional men with muskets, right?
