What was this guy thinking? I wonder if he looked behind him and saw his men exchange shifty glances. I know if my battle commander shouted something like this I would turn my horse around and ride the other way 
Yeah, yeah
They do all think they're going to die anyway, though. Might as well do it glorious-like with poetic speeches I love the Theoden bit (well, it's Theoden in the movie, sorry Camilla) that's a poem really, about the days that have gone down in the west. I suppose I just like beautiful doom

They haven't lost enough wars for that, maybe?

I find this Euro-speculation humorous and misguided.

Well, if you like that, are you rethinking your initial assessment of the battle cry?

Don't really see your point on the Alamo. You don't people think would be motivated by that?
