In 1788, one of the most stupid events in military history took place: the Battle of Karansebes. Basically the Austrian army got drunk and started shooting each other. And then trampled over their fellow soldiers while escaping from the imaginary Turkish army. Which is pretty stupid, if you ask me.

I'd love to see some cracky/humorous take on this. Maybe Prussia laughing his (awesome) ass off? Maybe Turkey remembering the lameness of the Austrian army? I don't know, I just want something funny.
