OK, lets start with something easy...

What was the color of the horse ridden by Feldmarschall Blucher on June 16, 1815, and what was the horse's most ditinguishing marking?

Who won the Battle of Austerlitz?

At the beginning of the battle it was a white horse that was a present from the prince regent of England.

I don't know about a distinct sign...

As for Austerlitz... I have no idea who won. :mrgreen:

The horse was black with white stripes and had a tattoo on it's ass that read "I love Papa Blucher"

The Chinese won the battle of Austerlitz.... :frenchdrunk: :frenchdrunk:

Regarding Austerlitz, I believe Chao Enlai (I know I spelled that wrong..) said, "it is too early to tell..."
