As a person who has studied LBH battle, I come off with a different take than most, I think he could have won and won big time, but a lot of stupid little things went wrong.
His run around to the north some think were to capture the wimmin and children leavin' the camp, would have stopped it pretty short.
The gatlin' guns would have saved his butt, by the time he got them drug over that rough country with the worn out horses they used for them, there would have been nuthin' there for him to capture but some horse poop and Indian poop, the Indians said they were gonna break the camp up the next day. Durn heavy cumbersome things were good for a fixed defense, not rough Montana hills and a Cav charge.
BTW the ones in use were the older models in 58 rimfire and had a very short range and jammed bad.
Myself I would have liked to be taken back to June 26-28 on the South Canadian in the Texas Panhandle and see The Second Battle of Adobe Wall, Billy Dixon, Jim Hannrahan, Bat Masterson and the other guys.
