Bernd Baltzar (Gunka no Baltzer) -19th Century Warfare manga

[Kyosuke_Nanbu]

The problem is that Baseland still use ball while the rest of its neighbors reached Precussion cap rifle bullet stage already.There surely be a period of Rifle musket that author conviniently omit to show the big gap which shouldn't exist as everyone should change into Rifle musket as soon as new method to load rifle for musket invented.

It can be totolerated if the reader just want to read some manga with thin historical backfground but when you read series like Safehold, you can just stop and thinking how ridiculous it was

[reashot]

New chapter just come out & every Baseland soldiers is dead as expected. Nothing interesting happen in the chapter.

[cupumanager]

Its either there are more Cavalry that flanked the line so the Baselland Infantry need to turn back and picked them off longer; or that is the weakest Rifle Volleys ever that The Cuirassiers charge were not distrupted by accurate Rifle Fire...

Yeah, it can be ridiculous how armies and governments cannot equip their footsoldiers with better armaments in space of couple of years. Stonewall Jackson's surgeon knew the General was shot by his own men, not Federal Infantry since lots of Confederate Infantry still used balls.
Many Cavalrymen in American Civil War have to buy Repeating Rifles and Revolvers themselves along with the ammo since the Army only supplied them with Sabres and single-shot Carbines. It took a couple of years before US Armories could produce Rifled Muskets and CSA to import them from Europe in the thousands.

Chapter 24 is out.
So we found one of the Weissen officers has a personal reason on spying on Baltzar.

...Is That a City-Class River Ironclad?

Spoiler for Pic:

Boy...they really need to get Weissen Artillery Corps support there, fast.

Bu...but, but, that's not the pairing pixiv fanarts lead me to believe! Well, kidding, but

Spoiler for RAWS:

Beautiful Helmut in a Dress, at a Dancing Ball is what basically you'll get if you read the RAWs(Do we ever know her real, female name?). Also, several new characters, including a Female War Correspondent

Also that, remembering the lineage of the work, as Gunka no Baltzar originally grew from Hetalia Doujins...

It's so ironic that I almost droped GnB after few first chapters because because Beltzar and Helmut looked "too gay" to me

[cupumanager]

I think that impression come from Baltzar doing some of those molester faces, a lot, when whispering to her.

Admittedly, Helmut is one fine Reverse Trap, well prepared at that. Look at DAT CODPIECE


See?

Anyway, how many of The Cavalry Cadets who knows that She's actually a Girl? The Instructor Staff definitely know, but do Jurgen von Breitner?

All of them, which is why she's bullied by them.

[Ghiest Cid]

Wow, I completely forgotten this until now.

[reashot]

Yay its back!

(All images has been edited.) Also a new information about a "new continent" which mean 'Murica will soon appear and beat the Nazi Weissen in the next war:



A sign for things to come:


Uh-oh...


And a bonus :

Spoiler for surprise:

[cupumanager]

There should be a Spin-Out of the Extras:

Fussball Manager Baltzar
Kinda like Giant Killing, but with Prussian Precision and Military Efficiency

Chapter 27

Spoiler for Return:

The Saber Virgin, Dressed in Color...

Helmut enjoyed playing Horse Artillery too much...but could you say no to her apology face?

At Last, an honest-to-god Named Female Character...what is her connection to Liebknecht, I wonder?

Apparently, The Holbeck River Ironclad isn't as Iron-cladded as City-Class. When seen in close, at Nielson and Liebknecht scene, it looks like wood texture...this may explain why a Weißen Artillery Battery could disable one of them that easily with Field Guns which doesn't seem like heavy pieces...

[MrTerrorist]

Another female character. Nice. And she's a reporter too.

[James Rye]

And a very witty one at that as well. She so has Bernd playing by her melody with having info about Liebknecht, he gonna tell her everything she wanna hear for the share of what could be important informations about his arch nemesis.^^

[James Rye]

New raw is out! I hope this gets an anime some day. <3

Spoiler for volume 7 spoilers:

3 big conflicts pretty much.
One is about the calvary students who feel they became unneeded through the military technology and them trying to hold on their tradition to battle with horse and sword. And apparently they didn't succeed and it looks like the calvary won't be the same it once was.

The other is about the mother from the two princes and her sister/aunt(?) from that big realm south and southeast of Baselland. Not sure if I look at this correctly but this could mean that the two princes are not from royal blood but are subtitudes for the kidnapped children. Also dat evil grin, a evil queen right out of Disney movies. XD

The last is between the two brothers who's differences finally break into a civil war between them. With help from the Erzreich soldiers the first prince tries to take out the young cadet army of the 2nd prince, but the cadets won their first battle, holding the star castle.

From the looks of it Baltzer had been ordered back and cannot help them till Weiden can be sure that Erzreich has interfered with Baselland politics and such.
Looks pretty grim for our young cadets.

Also we got a new little princess.^^
