Like an uplifted veil the darkness fades from my vision and the truth becomes clear and apparent to behold

I wish I could say sean bean is the reason he is so impressive. But the novels have him being just as much the super badass as the film series.

The character who's plot armour is so strong, it stripped away Sean Bean's reserves leading to the characters he portrays dieing in droves.

>>22968594
Well Sharpes Eagle is the first novel to be written, but chronologically Sharpes Triumph is the first novel.

The novels are fantastic as long as you know what you are getting in to. This is man porn. Sharpe is a super badass who is super-proficient in anything he does. His enemies are those in his ranks who are jealous of him. He generally steals their women and use them up, they generally then take his money and once he gets over them he still doesn't have 2 fucks to rub together, because there is always a higher ranking officer who has a wife ready for the plucking. This is presented with the backdrop of a historically accurate battle. Often Sharpe's actions cause victory. Where it isn't historically accurate the author explains why he took that liberty. So essentially the best possible /tg/ and /k/ escapism.

>>22968661
Okay I laughed.

Not as heavy on the lady-stealing as might be implied here, but he's not too far off the mark.

Excelent. Exactly what I am looking for right now. Thanks to all pointers, downloading first chronological novel to my cell right now.

>>22968789
Fantastic. I love the series myself, and the fact he is easy to stat up in pathfinder makes it all the better.

Sounds like what everyone else thinks of Flashman.

They have no idea...

A guy who lived in my flat last year used to start thinking he *was* Sharpe when he got drunk enough. Then he'd text his ex ranting about how he sold secrets to France for her or some shit.

I'd dumb my armor on him too if you know what i mean/

>>22969061
Sharpe is to Ibram Gaunt as Flashman is to Ciaphas Cain, or so I've been told.

>>22968676
Surprisingly accurate descriptor.

Yay sean bean!

Did you miss /tv/?

I remember my dad always getting the show from the library when I was little. I always fondly remembered it as being badass, but figured it was because I was young.

I went back and re-watched it all recently. Even with the dated special effects, it's still better than the sort of shit they're making today, even with massive cable budgets.

And still some of the best intro theme music you'll find:

>>22969412
>the dated special effects
That's the only real flaw, they had to do their best with the battle scenes despite only having twelve guys, three flags and a lot of smoke.

Here's forty shillings on the drum
For those who volunteer to come.
To 'list and fight the foe today -
Over the hills and far away.

O'er the hills and o'er the main,
Through Flanders Portugal and Spain
King George commands and we obey -
Over the hills and far away

>>22969487
why did you post that pillock?

When duty calls me I must go,
to stand and face another foe
But part of me will always stray -
Over the Hills and far away.

O'er the hills and o'er the main,
Through Flanders Portugal and Spain
King George commands and we obey -
Over the hills and far away

If I should fall to rise no more,
as many comrades did before
Then ask the fifes and drums to play -
Over the hills and far away

O'er the hills and o'er the main,
Through Flanders Portugal and Spain
King George commands and we obey -
Over the hills and far away

Then fall in lads behind the drum!
With colours blazing like the sun
Along the road to come what may -
Over the hills and far away
O'er the hills and o'er the main,
Through Flanders Portugal and Spain
King George commands and we obey -
Over the hills and far away

Over the hills and far away.

Ah, a soldiers life for thee.

I am sorry, sir. I was born behind Iron Curtain and when I was growing up we were forced to read samizdat SF&F books typewriter copied by some guys who got their hands on translations from Poland or somewhere else.

It's better when sang around a campfire with a lot of drunk people. Have another song:

The Rochester Recruiting Sergeant

A recruiting sergeant marched through the crowded streets of Rochester,
Bound for the wars in the Low Country.
And he sang as he marched and played upon a kettledrum,
"Who'll be a soldier for Marlborough and me?"
Chorus:
"Who'll be a soldier,"
"Who'll be a soldier,"
"Who'll be a soldier for Marlborough and me?"
And he sang as he marched through the crowded streets of Rochester,
"Who'll be a soldier for Marlborough and me?"
[The choruses follow this pattern with the last two lines of each verse.]
For the Queen she has ordered fresh troops for the Continent
Bound for the wars in the Low Country.
So if you'd be a soldier, all in a scarlet uniform
Take the Queen's shilling for Marlborough and me.
Chorus
"Not I", said the butcher, "not I", said the baker,
Most of the people they would not agree,
To be paid in the powder and rattle of the cannonball.
Wages for soldiers for Marlborough and thee.
Chorus
"But I," said the young man,"have long endured the Parish dues.
No more charity for the likes of me.
Starvation and danger, they shall be my destiny.
I'll take the Queen's shilling for Marlborough and thee."
Chorus
So forty recruits marched through the crowded streets of Rochester.
Bound for the wars in the Low Country.
And they sang as they marched through those crowded streets of Rochester.
"Who'll be a soldier for Marlborough and me."

Singing the "Who'll be a soldier" line, fucking shivers down the spine.

It's of a gentleman soldier
As sentry he did stand
He saluted a fair maiden
By a waiving of his hand
So then he boldly kissed her
And he passed it off as a joke
He drilled her up in the sentry box
Wrapped up in a soldier's cloke

And the drums are going a rap a tap tap
And the fifes they loudly play
Fare you well polly my dear
I must be going away

All night they tossed and tumbled
Till the daylight did appear
The soldier rose, put on his clothes,
Saying, fare you well my dear
For the drums they are a beating
And the fifes they so sweetly play
If it weren't for that polly my dear
With you I'd gladly stay

And the drums are going a rap a tap tap
And the fifes they loudly play
Fare you well polly my dear
I must be going away

Now come you gentleman soldier,
Won't you marry me?
Oh no my dearest polly
Such things can never be
For I've a wife already
Children I have three
Two wives are allowed in the army
But one's too many for me

And the drums are going a rap a tap tap
And the fifes they loudly play
Fare you well polly my dear
I must be going away

If anyone comes a courting you,
You can treat them to a glass
If anyone comes a courting you,
You can say you're a country lass
You needn't ever tell them,
Nor pass it off as a joke
That you got drilled in a sentry box
Wrapped up in a soldier's cloke

And the drums are going a rap a tap tap
And the fifes they loudly play
Fare you well polly my dear
I must be going away

Oh it's come my gentleman soldier,
Why didn't you tell me so? my parents will be angy
When this they come to know when nine months had been and gone
The poor girl she brought shame
She had a little militia boy
And she didn't know his name

And the drums are going a rap a tap tap
And the fifes they loudly play
Fare you well polly my dear
I must be going away

"They call her The Needle. Don't ask why."

And we sailed out of England, bound for Lisbon harbour
With bayonets a-gleaming and pride to the fore
We'd little to hope but we tried hard to cherish
The thoughts of our loved ones on England's fair shore

And soon we were transported through hell and its fury
Through smoke and through fire, through shot and through flame
And at Telavera we stole Boney's Eagle
And in that short time we were heroes of Spain

And I met with a maiden hair black as the raven
Her eyes they did glister like two diamonds bright
We spoke not a word at our very first meeting
And I lay in her arms all that long Spanish night

>>22969761

And we travelled together o'er mountain and valley
And she by my side through many's the fight
She tended my suffering and she salved me of pity
And bore me a daughter for my heart's delight

And we marched into Lisbon proud Wellington's army
The war being over it's homeward we're bound
And all on the quayside - the weeping and wailing
Four thousand women left on that cold ground

Farewell and adieu to you Spanish lady
Farewell and adieu to you ladies of Spain
For we're under orders to sail home to England
But I know in some time we'll return once again

And if ever I'm returning it's with gold in great plenty
And if I return it's with gold in great store
I'll search far and wide for my Spanish lady
Who brought me such peace in the midst of such war

Farewell and adieu to you Spanish lady
Farewell and adieu to you ladies of Spain
For we're under orders to sail home to England
But I know in some time we'll return once again
Once again
Once again
Once again

Poor old Frederickson was just a hard-luck story, and anyway Sharpie can't help his magnetic pull. Perhaps by warped way of compensation, the later movies they made deviated from the books by killing Lucille off.

As an old fa/tg/uy, I remember reading the novels back in college. And then creaming all over myself when I found the series at the library.

The Nock Gun was the BFG of its time

>>22969372
I remember that being in a Yorkshire local paper. It's the only time something's happened in London that has ended up in it. Then again, Sean Bean is pretty much Yorkshire's spiritual liege, so if he gets stabbed we pay attention.

In every film/show where Sean Bean does not die something horrible happens to his family.

In Sharpe his wife (wives?) die, and in both Silent Hill and The Dark his wife and child go through utterly crazy shite.

The only expection I can think of off the top of my head is Ronin where Robert DeNiro ambushes him with a cup of coffee, calls him a fucking idiot and kicks him out the group and he is never seen again.

>>22970332
I think he died in the second Silent Hill Movie

>>22970290

Fun fact - Sharpe was originally written as a Londoner, hence joining the South Essex regiment. Richard E Grant was supposed to play the role on film, but he got injured on set after 7 days of filming. Sean Bean took over the role, and was so successful, Sharpe was retconned, in the books, to be a Yorkshireman who fled to London.

Is there something morbid about his agent, or does Sean generally like getting death scenes?

What if he's an immortal, has tried to kill himself centuries ago but can't, and now experiences the sweet release of death vicariously through acting roles.

>>22970647
He plays a lot of baddies in a lot of action films. He's going to die a lot. There are other actors in the same position I'm sure, they're just not as well known for it. How many times have guys like Billy Drago or Michael Ironside lived through a movie?

One of the things I never really liked in the book was how the author hates to make war impersonal. Sharpe always has to know the bad guy he's fighting.

They should make a novel called Beanquake... like a sequel to Shatnerquake, that book where all of William Shatner's characters come to the real world and go after the real thing. But of course it's all Sean Bean's characters and they instead have to save the world.

And all of them die except Sharpe. Who winds up taking over for the real Sean Bean, who also dies.

No names for the firing squad, Sharpy!

[about the first defeat of the South Essex]
Wellesley: This is a report from Major Hogan, which differs somewhat from your account, Sir Henry.
Sir Henry Simmerson: Major Hogan is merely an engineer, sir.
Wellesley: Major Hogan's coat buttons up tight over a number of other duties, Sir Henry. Major Hogan reports a number of losses, Sir Henry. He says you first lost your head, and instead of destroying the bridge, you marched over it. He says you then lost your nerve, and ran from a small French patrol. He says you lost ten men, a Major and two sergeants. He says you finally lost your sense of honour and destroyed the bridge, cutting off a rescue party led by Lieutenant Sharpe. Major Hogan leaves the worst to the last. He says you lost the King's Colours.
Sir Henry Simmerson: [nervous] The fault was not mine, sir. Major Lennox must answer.
Wellesley: [shouting] *Major Lennox Answered With His Life!* As you should have done if you had any sense of honour! You lost the Colours of the King of England! You disgraced us, sir. You shamed us, sir. You will answer.

Wellesley: The South Essex is stood down in name. If I wipe the name away, I may wipe the shame. I am making you a Battalion of Detachments, you will fetch and carry. The Light Company put up a fight, so I will let it stand under the command of a new captain.
Sir Henry Simmerson: To be commanded by the newly-gazetted Captain Gibbons, sir?
Wellesley: To be commanded by the newly-gazetted Captain *Sharpe*, sir.

>>22972182

Simmerson's story arc is one of the more amusing ones out of the whole saga, in the movies anyway. It's hard to believe you can ever wind up feeling sorry for him or liking him, but when that last movie hits...

Napoleonic minis thread?
I just purchased a box of 28mm french hussars and a 40mm french hussar, both from Perry.
I'm thinking of painting both as the 7th, and the most challenging thing is going to be freehand painting. Specifically on the Sabretache. The flags will be hard as well, unless I can get a transfer. This is where you folks come in. Perry doesn't have any napoleonic transfers, and I would really like to get a flag for the 7th. If someone could point me to a quality place to get transfers, that would be awesome.
It would be even more awesome if I could get a transfer for the Sabretache, but if not, I can just paint a 7 on it and call it a day. Because FUUUCK painting the Sabretaches as the 7th had them.
Pic related, I'm organizing them as they were under Lasalle in the campaign against Prussia

Could some kind, kind fa/tg/uy point a lonely uneducated soul in the right direction, to partake in this most important of rituals?

You are a gentleman and a scholar, sir, and I thank you. But dare I ask for some fiction?

Virtually non-exist from the French side, sadly. There are the Alain Lausard novels by Richard Howard, but they are really a third-rate attempt to copy Sharpe (with none of Cornwell's skill).

I feared so. It bugs me because it's not like crazy shit didn't happen on the French side. Fuck, a Bartolomeo Bosco-expy could get into some good espionage shenanigans .

Cain isn't an irredeemable bastard, though. He tries to be good, and that's the main difference
